any over 50 single people out there can recommend a holiday or web site for cheap singles holidays?

By · Friday, January 22nd, 2010

I am fed up with searching the web for a decently priced holiday for a single traveller. Can anyone out there over 50 recommend a holiday or web site that offers holidays at not stupid prices to somewhere warm

Every evening I go in the neighborhood at Why Not Cafe in Athens. Grek boys are offering themselves to us, Albanian workers. They beg: Lets play marmango, sir. (Marmango is Grek national gay dance.) After this crisis Greks pay less !

The best company by far is SAGA, based in the UK You can download a brochure from this link: http://travel.saga.co.uk/holidays.aspx?pid=ppsg

The company does NOT allow anyone under the age of 50 to travel with them. As for single travelers, they make an extra effort that group.

Note: The company DOES NOT use agents, you MUST book with them direct.- keeps the price down

If I were single (which I’m not) and over 50 (which I am) I would buy a return ticket to Athens or Iraklio, Crete, hire a small car or – preferably – a motorbike and roam the country and the islands. Let the wind (or your mood) take you to the next place. You will meet fantastic people, see things no tourist gets to see because, as a single person traveling, the Greeks will take you into their home, to their kafeneio, their taverna, to their festivals, their weddings, to their orchards, fields, olive groves. Get off the beaten path, away from the package holidays and experience a vacation like you never had before. Especially if you do this in the off-season (stay away July-August).

You might want to check out Exploritas. It used to be Elderhostel. They usually only charge a few hundred dollars more for single occupancy. They have a wide variety of domestic and international trips usually with an educational component. The travel is usually in small groups.
