Frequently Asked Questions

Below are a selection of frequently asked questions:


Who are Over5s.com and what do you offer?

Over5s.com is not a travel agent. It does not participate in the sale of holidays to the public. It provides holidaymakers with the ability to select holidays and accommodation from a range of suppliers that it has already identified. The aim of Over5s.com is to try to find as many holidays that are suitable for the larger family and put them in one place, thereby taking the pain, and time, out of finding suitable holidays.

As membership of the Over5s.com community grows, we will endeavour to update all members with details of when seasonal holiday brochures are being launched, so that the Over5.com community can be at the front of the queue for the limited number of holidays that are suitable for the larger family.


How can I share my holiday experiences with other users of Over5s.com?

Over5s.com encourage holidaymakers to share their holiday experiences with other users. You can do this using the link to our Forum at the top of this page.


Can I book my holiday through Over5s.com
