national holidays coach holidays

Hi all

I desperately need a break now but not sure if I should go for these, you see they are really good value, esp the special ofers that depart in next 10 days, but how good are they? Any one have any experience to share with these package hols? The site is http://www.nationalholidays.com

All I keep hearing is that it's over 50s etc.

7 days in Italy for £272, accommodation included?? Should I go for it?

    National Holidays are brilliant, customer service is great,holidays are great, yes, there are mostly older people but certainly not all of them.
    You would only travel with them, you dont need to drink/eat/sleep with them lol. Anyway, older people are good fun, you make so many more new friends.

    Go for it, My OH and I go with them at least 3 times a year. Can't fault them.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    I haven't used them myself but met a couple last week whilst I was on holiday and they were 'singing the praises' of National Holidays, they have been using them for a few years it seems.
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Cheers for the replies guys!! :) Its definitely a cheap way to travel - not saying I'm anti-social but would like to have some time to myself when on holiday!
