Seniors group travel

27th Apr 2010

Travel shouldn’t stop just because you’re older or have no-one with whom to travel. AboutSeniors subscriber, Ray, is keen to find some travel ideas for his 73-year old single friend.

Q.
I have a question re single seniors. My friend who is 73 has recently been widowed but would like to continue to travel locally and overseas.

Do you have any information re group travel for seniors only?

He is an experienced traveller but would like the opportunity to travel with other people in a similar situation.

A.
It’s important to keep up the things you love when you find yourself alone in life and there are a few travel groups around that can help your friend. We would suggest getting in touch with Seniors Holiday Travel who arrange tours, within Australia and overseas, and also have a cruise club where they can link up people wishing to avoid single supplements by travelling together.

You can visit their website by clicking here.

We have also posted your details on our Meeting Place, where the very active AboutSeniors community may have some novel travel ideas for your friend
