People over the age of 60 are yearning for fresh experiences and exciting new adventures, the likes of which can only be had via travel.
Being at the optimal age implies achieving the maturity level necessary to know how to make decisions. That is to say, everything will depend on the profile of each individual, but in general, peace, security, and a decent infrastructure are the main factors to look for while deciding on a trip. Look at some of the places we have chosen for you.
Lisbon and Sintra, in Portugal
Many people decide to go to our homeland, Portugal, since the language is easy to learn and the country is often regarded as the top tourist destination anywhere in the world.
It would be enough to make the journey worthwhile if Lisbon’s little stone alleys nestled among the hills and slopes of the city were all there was to see, but the trip becomes much better as it continues on to Sintra, which is surrounded by gardens, castles, and palaces.
Tuscany, Italy
Tuscany, known as the cradle of the Renaissance and home to some of the most breathtaking natural settings in the world, is an ideal travel destination for people of all ages.
Pisa and its well-known leaning tower, Siena and its historical centre, the small but impressive San Gimignano, the mediaeval houses of Pienza, and the carefully cultivated hills of the Val d’Orcia are all recognised as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Florence, the region’s principal city, is also one of them.
Vienna, Austria
Vienna is often cited as the city that offers the finest quality of life anywhere in the world. It is one of the cities in Europe that has the lowest cost of living, in addition to being clean, well-organized, developed, and having a great quality of life. Even in the middle of the palaces, Gothic cathedrals, and old structures, you will discover all the bustle and activity of a contemporary metropolis. The city will be surrounded by parks, restaurants, museums, and many cultural possibilities, making it simple for you to avoid becoming bored.
Montevideo and Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay
Our neighbouring country of Uruguay, maybe more than any other South American nation, recognises the importance of quality of life. Walking around Montevideo’s Ramblas, taking in the Art Deco architecture of the city centre, and sipping mate in one of the city’s squares are all quite pleasant activities to partake in.
There is nothing quite like a day excursion to Colonia del Sacramento, with its cobblestone lanes that seem to have been frozen in time, as a way to enhance the journey. Think about going on a trip across Brazil, Uruguay, and Argentina; it will make you fall in love with South America.
Montreal, Canada
There is no dearth of compelling arguments to support a trip to Canada! Quebec, the French-speaking area of the nation, has acquired not only the language but also the allure of France via its inhabitants.
Vieux-Montreal, the historic quarter of the city, is characterised by its lovely cobblestone lanes. It is home to many outstanding historic structures dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. At the same time, it is a contemporary and vibrant city, allowing visitors a wide variety of features to investigate.
