I am really wanting a holiday but have no one to go with. I am 36 and am worried that most people are going to be alot older and i may feel left out? Any views/advice please. Am interested in the cruise in october to barcelona.

Hi,

I'm 43 and having been doing these holidays since early 30's.

Age is never an issue. People just want to enjoy their holidays with other "solo" travellers.

Youngest person in group I've been on was 21 last year to Israel! Oldest being late 70's.

You wont feel left out. Women tend to outnumber men. Group sizes - smallest I've been on was 13 and largest 40. You'll have a fab time which ever holiday you opt for

Welcome to JY yes you would be in the younger age bracket but please if there is a holiday you fancy do not let the AGE thing put you off give it a go. I am 53 and have done 8 JY tours they have all been great I have visitied some stuinning countries and met a great mix of people. If there is a tour your interested have a word with the girls in the office they might be able to tell you the age range of the people who have booked. Or go on the Ask The Editor forum on here and ask Olly he might be able to help you.

Good Luck

Cindy

I agree with the other comments that age is not a issue on these holidays.

Yes at 36 you will be at the younger end and possibly the youngest but dont let it stop you having a great holiday.

I've done 5 holidays so far and 2 of them the youngest were in their 20's, 2 in their 30's and the other holiday 40's (although that was a christmas coach holiday which did seem to attract a older group).

If you are worried ask Olly the age range of travellers that have booked so far on the holiday you fancy.

Hi Melb, Hi all

I dont think you will be left out at all, And I Have no doubt you, will enjoy any trip that you chose. After 14 trips, I must confess you probably are at the lower end of the age range, However not by much really. Go on give it ago.Besides, age is just a number. And I bet on your return you will be wondering what all the fuss was about. Go on, do it, make the booking. If you have a look at the Just You interviews / videos with LovelyLesley & Nixon, then these should put your mind at rest

Regards Andy

I've done 7 Just you trips and at 44 been the youngest on only two of them, but don't let the age thing worry you, everyone is in the same boat and there is always a good crowd, I have had a great time on every trip I've been on and only wish I'd started travelling sooner, there are always people in the group to eat and drink with or just to keep an eye on your stuff while you go for a dip in the sea.

Hello Mel

With Just You age does not matter. As long as you get on with people of all ages, you will have a wonderful time whichever holiday you choose. Age is just a number. Life is too short to worry about this.
