I have never traveled with Elderhostel, and I am sure I never will.

I recently browsed through their online brochure for various destinations on different continents, and I was astonished to see that Elderhostel had prices that really were quite expensive!

I could easily put together my own vacation in 4-star hotels that would be much less costly than what they offer. In most parts of the world, transfers and luggage handling are not so difficult to accomplish.
