Over 50s Holidays & Tours

Travel in comfort, explore astounding locations, and forge new relationships with a group of kindred spirits on our over 50s holidays.

Our over-fifties holidays are the ideal way to immerse yourself in a brand new culture while still maintaining that all important social aspect to your trip. By being in a group of no more than two-dozen (often smaller) you’ll get all the benefits of things like group discounts without the hassle of bustling around as part of a larger, busier tour. With our over 50s tours, you’ll be travelling alongside people with the same zest for life as you do, so you’re sure of a holiday that takes place on your terms, at your pace.

Our over 50s tours allow for almost everything, from ambling through ancient architecture to sampling the very best food and drink a previously unfamiliar spot has to offer. Round off your day discussing the events of the trip over an evening meal together. Accommodation is always high quality, so you can turn up for your next day of exploring feeling refreshed and ready to go.

All of our over 50s holidays are run by welcoming, knowledgeable guides, who deliver engaging tours informed by a native’s grip on the culture of the place you’re visiting, so you can get an authentic experience. If you’re looking to holiday with like-minded people with a similar curiosity about the world, then an over-fifties tour is the one for you.
