Everyone can enjoy treks and tours of all types; wildlife, African safaris, hiking polar adventures, and cultural journeys throughout Asia, South America and the world. As a senior you can select any of our tours and just check the activity and comfort level. Many of our “G” Tours are suitable for the over 50, but some are more sparse and active than others.
We are adding more about local tours; things closer to home are often full and rich adventure and learning experiences that may have been overlooked in a busy life. A trip to Canada’s East Coast, for example, to enjoy its scenery, lifestyles, cajan and celtic based music and sample its culinary delights from seafood to wine and gourmet dining, can be very rewarding.
In these pages we will list tours that are more comfortable and less strenuous. Wine and food gourmet tours are a popular way to start. Food and Wine food gourmet tours are a popular way to start. But there are many more adventures that are suitable for elders. There are many tour operators that specialize in elder trekking and elder travel. With seniors living actively and with a ken interest to explore and learn about cultures, heritage, nature and wildlife will into their later years, we find more and more operators are catering to their needs.
Sixties is the new forties. It is a phase of life when you have more time for yourself. Children have moved on and the work schedule eases out a bit. Many of us have retired. It is, therefore, a time to explore new avenues and do things that we have always wanted to do. Go for an exotic hike, check out some beautiful locales, visit some great museums, eat some unique food, and just have the time of your life! There are hundreds more opportunities today than in the past. Technology has made travel and communication easier. Adventure travel tours are safer than ever before.
More and More Seniors are single and those who are without a partner may feel that an adventure travel tour is not for them. This is unfortunate, because it may be exactly what the Doctor ordered. Its a great time to mingle with other people of all ages and share an interest in nature, culture, food and heritage. At times it takes courage to reach out, make the effort and just do it, but the rewards can be enormous, especially if you are apprehensive and reluctant to make the effort, just doing it will reap great rewards.
So if you have a case of the “butterflies”, it is normal. It is just excitement and anticipation knowing that you are about to step out and step up to the adventure of living and learning. It’s a chance to learn about a new culture, people and place and all that makes it special, strange and fascinating, and to share it with others just like you.
