Travel for active seniors: the best destinations and tips for a relaxed trip after 60
We travel better with age. So say those who've had the time to understand that quality beats quantity, and that the best travel experiences aren't the ones you rush through. After 60, travel often takes on a whole new dimension: more time available, more budget, and above all more freedom, provided you prepare your departure well.
The best destinations for active seniors
Provence, France
Between colourful markets, hilltop villages, and generous cuisine, Provence is a destination of absolute gentleness, ideal for a road trip at your own pace.
Tuscany, Italy
Florence, Siena, the Chianti vineyards, Tuscany is a destination of serenity and beauty, with excellent tourist infrastructure.
Quebec, Canada
For those who want to travel far without a language barrier, Quebec offers wide-open spaces, welcoming cities, and warm hospitality.
Morocco
Immense cultural richness, varied landscapes, and comfortable riads for a complete change of scenery just a few hours' flight away.
The Peloponnese, Greece
Less crowded than Athens or Santorini, the Peloponnese offers an authentic, accessible, and magnificent Greece.
Practical tips for travelling well after 60
A few simple precautions make all the difference:
- Take out travel insurance suited to your profile, some cover on-site health issues better
- Favour itineraries without overly packed stages
- Check the accessibility of your accommodation
And if you'd rather not manage everything yourself, calling on a tailor-made travel planner can be a real added value.
