3 great holiday options for older adults
Is this the year you finally take the plunge and book that well-deserved holiday? Planning a trip can be stressful, especially if you have to organise multiple flights, visas and hotel stays.
If you’re looking for easy holiday options as a senior traveller, here are three worthwhile ideas to consider. Bon voyage!
1. Relax at a beach resort
Looking for a laidback yet luxurious beach holiday where the only decisions you have to make are what book to read next and what to eat at the dinner buffet? Then you can’t go wrong with a beach resort like those in Mauritius, the Maldives and Thailand. Many resorts have on-site spas so you can treat yourself to a range of rejuvenating treatments. And while you have the option to leave the resort and explore your surroundings, many holidaymakers simply opt to stay on the resort to soak up some sun and relax.
2. Explore dream destinations with a group tour
If you’re keen for a fairly active holiday where you’ll get to visit multiple destinations, you may want to sign up for a group tour. This travel option has many benefits for senior travellers, especially for those who don’t want to plan all the holiday logistics themselves. With a group tour, your accommodation, transport, sightseeing destinations and meals are organised for you, so all you have to do is pack and go. An added bonus, particularly if you’re going solo, is that you’ll get to socialise with your fellow travellers.
3. Set sail with a cruise ship holiday
If you’re looking for the ultimate in hassle-free holidays, a cruise may be just the ticket. With your meals taken care of and plenty of activities on offer, you can relax on a lounger, take a dip in the pool, or disembark and explore each new destination along the way.
