YOLO tours are aimed at 18 to 39-year-olds with and 24-hour appetite for adventure. Passengers over 40 who have already confirmed their bookings prior to November 1 and with the travel being from April 1 onwards will be shifted to an alternative tour. According to GAP, YOLO designated tours are not appropriate for persons outside the 18 to 39 age group. “To this end, we present alternative tours which we feel would be better suited to your client in terms of group dynamics. In this situation, you will be sent a trip/case specific email from GAP Adventures stating the alternatives available, and/or compensation due, which you can pass on to the clients,” GAP said in a statement Refer to Travelinfo for more details.
