Senior tours are typically longer tours. Senior Tours are generally taken when younger travelers are still away at school. Wayne will generally recommend a group of seniors travel together. Many senior tour travelers enjoy being part of a group with a group leader, guide or escort.
There are different types of senior tours, because seniors have varied preferences when it comes to group size. A large group of seniors will often times take a bus tour which usually holds 40 persons, plus the escort.
You may prefer a senior tour with group sizes ranging from 14 to 20 passengers. small senior tours cost more but the cost is offset by greater intimacy, more personal oversight by the escort and you will have the ability to go destinations and enjoy travel experiences that are not available to larger senior tour groups.
The advantage that all senior tours offers is that all of the sightseeing, lodging, and most of the dining arrangements are taken care of in advance. This is even true of independent senior travel where much of the vacation is taken care of, except the senior traveler may have a rental car as part of the package and will have access to a local host in certain cities.
Other types of senior tours may also include a tour by rail where they sleep and eat on the train. Combinations of different types of travel may comprise a senior tour where the tour includes both a cruise and a land tour. There is also the customized senior tour where all or most of the tour arrangements for either a couple or a group are prearranged.
Finally we have activity vacations. While this type of vacation may not fall within the definition of senior travel, they are popular with many seniors including 80 year old seniors. These tours are much more active than the typical senior tour as they include walking, hiking, or cycling. Accommodations may be more rustic and the tour areas more remote. Sailing may also be included.
