When the activity level is too high

I like to challenge myself, however, I do train for my trips (I do a lot of hiking trips.). I have found the descriptions for challenging and moderately challenging trips to be pretty accurate. I read the daily itinerary closely and the comments from prior participants. I have found most of the group leaders very accommodating to participants who are having difficulty or chose to sit out a day. Try a program that is one activity level higher that what you usually chose to see if you enjoy it.

I have to disagree with you on this one. Choosing an activity level that is higher than your normal activity can actually ruin your trip . If you are sore all the time from the activity it detracts from your enjoyment. If others have to constantly wait for you or assist you it detracts from their enjoyment.

YOU ARE SOOOOO CORRECT - ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THAT OTHERS HAVE NOT ONLY WAITED A LIFETIME TO GO ON THE TRIP BUT ALSO WANT WHAT THEY PAID FOR ! - THEY DID NOT - NOT - NOT PAY TO BE CHEATED OUT OF PART OF THE EXCURSION BECAUSE SOMEONE ELSE ONLY WANTED A "LITTLE" OF THE EXCURSION.
