    Alexis

    Asked on January 18th, 2026

    The beginning of tour says 18-39 years but bottom of details at end says 18-90 years. Which is it?

    Age Range
    • G AdventuresOperator•Written January 2026

      The correct information is 18-39 years. The other information referring to 18-90 years is not correct and likely a typing error.

    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperator•Written November 2025

      This is one of our 18-39 tour options, all travellers must be within those ages on Day 1 of the tour, so if you are 40+ you would not be able to join this one unfortunately. We recommend looking at our Classic tour options as an alternative.

      Traveler•Written November 2025

      Is there an alternative from north india to sri lanka with shared accomodation?

    • G AdventuresOperator•Written November 2025

      We currently do not offer an India & Sri Lanka trip in other travel styles, but it's possible to combine two tours together. The Accommodation is not multishare, but you would share with another solo traveller of the same gender.

    • G AdventuresOperator•Written September 2025

      We do get asked this a lot and unfortunately, we have to be really strict about it. If we were more lenient on this, we would be false advertising and may lead to customer dissatisfaction and miss-selling of our product. It is not our intention to exclude people, it is simply that we have a specific product which targets that age group and traveller type. To align with our 18 to 30 something campaign, it is necessary to have an upper age limit with no exceptions to keep our promise to our customers.

    Asked on September 14th, 2025

    Why is there an age limit of 39 >

    Age Range
    • G AdventuresOperator•Written September 2025

      We wish to offer the best possible travel experience to all of our customers and one of the ways in which we aim to achieve this, is by specifically designing tours with a demographic in mind. Our 18-39 age restriction policy is just one way in which we protect this experience for everyone.
