I am looking at the CENTRAL AMERICAN JOURNEY tour and have looked on your website for availability but I am limited on ones that I can do. Tourradar have availability on 25th July but your website doesn't - can you explain why they have availability please?

At the moment there is no availability for the 25th Departure, however we do have spots open on the 04th July Departure and the 15th August departure.

Is there an age limit for this trip? I am 63 and my husband is 65, and we are both experienced travelers.

Our 18-Thirtysomethings tours are designed exclusively for travellers aged 18-39 years old. Travellers must be 39 years old or younger as of Day 1 of the departure date of the tour.

What is the average age in the January 15th trip?

Looks like around half of the travellers are in their from 18-29 and the rest are 30-35.

I really like this trip but I am slightly older than the range. I am a very active, sporty 45 years old. Do you think you can make an execption?

This tour is a part of our 18-30somethings travel style, which is only available for travellers between the ages of 18 - 39 to book onto. Our other travel styles, such as Classic, Active, National Geographic Journeys, etc., do not have any age restrictions.

Is the tour safe for two young women traveling through Latin America?

This is one of the most popular group tours we offer to Central America which appeal to younger travelers as they are in a group together with a tour leader throughout. You can feel confident knowing safety is always a top concern and we would not be operating these tours if a guest's safety was at risk. Although the cities visited on tour are generally safe during the day, there can be risks to wandering throughout any major city at night. It is our recommendation for travelers to stay in small groups and to take taxis to and from restaurants, or during night time excursions.

60 years old can join this trip?

This tour is designed exclusively for 18 - 39 year olds. Travellers must be 39 years old or younger as of Day 1 of the departure date of the tour.

I am 70 years young and healthy, can I join this group tour?

This tour is one of our 18-39 options, so all travellers must be between those ages to be eligible. We do have similar routes that are suitable for all travellers under our 'Classic' tour style. The most similar option would be the 'Basic Central America: Mexico to Costa Rica'.

Why is the trip limited for people up to 39 years old?

This tour is a part of our 18-30somethings travel style, which is only available for travellers between the ages of 18 - 39 to book onto. Our other travel styles, such as Classic, Active, National Geographic Journeys, etc., do not have any age restrictions.

Can I get this tour for the double room price?

There is no double or single room price. The tour uses a mix of hotels and hostels. During hotel night you will be roomed with 1 solo traveller of the same gender, and during hostel nights it will be 4-6 per room separated by gender.

When we end at San Jose do you drop us off at the airport?

You will arrive in San Jose the second last day and spend a night at a hotel there. You will need to add a departure transfer for an additional cost if you were wanting to get dropped at the airport in San Jose.

My guides Ana, and then Luis and Lorenzo are all fantastic wonderful people! I felt safe with them and really felt like they knew their stuff!! I do have some suggestions, I realise how important Homestays are on the tour. However, I do think they should be optional. For example, there should be the option to pay more if you would prefer a hostel or hotel. There was a miscommunication in Lake Atitlan and I was placed on my own in a homestay. Non english speaking (expected) but as a woman I was not comfortable with this and had an anxiety attack. My guide sat with me but the only option given was to sign a release form and to book my own accomadation. Which I would have done but at that point nothing was avaliable. Everyone else was placed together in 2's or 3's and I was only swapped once they relised that a man and woman were placed in the same room. The fact thst an anxiety attsck didn't cause the switch was shocking to me. I also feel San Ignacio should be optional as the main thing to do is cave exploring. As someone with a fear of small spaces, I didn't do that. I enjoyed the Iguna sanctuary but do feel that my time would have been better spent having the extra nights in Caye Culker instead of the long transit to be in a plsce with not much to do. I would have been happy to psy extra to join the others later if I knew how it would be. Otherwise amazing trip, nice activities and overall great value!Show more

All the countries we visited were spectacular and I think more people should visit that part of the world! My only criticism of the tour was that I wish we couldve had more time in each place, I loved Leon in Nicuagura but we were only there for one night! I had Suyen as our CEO and she was incredible, everything you could ask for from a tour guide. She was so knowledgeable about everywhere we were going and she had such a calming presence about her I felt at ease for the whole tour. My group were first group after 2 years due to covid, lucky enough to go to Nicuagura and im so glad we did because it was beautiful! Suyen was very informative telling us about the history of each country and their cultures.Show more

You can feel confident knowing safety is always a top concern and we would not be operating these tours if a guest's safety was at risk. Although the cities visited on tour are generally safe during the day, there can be risks to wandering throughout any major city at night.
