The Best 19 Trips to Take In Your 60’s

While health and finances may present some concerns, the majority of people hope to spend plenty of time traveling in their 60s. There are many destinations and experiences out there for people of all budgets and levels of fitness. Even if you aren’t fully retired yet, there are options for shorter trips too. Let’s take a look at some of the best trips you can take in your 60s. 

A River Cruise

River cruises are the ideal blend of exploration and relaxation for many people in their 60s. Float along the serene setting of the Northwest through vineyards, canyons, and cascading waterfalls. Explore the historic Hudson River in luxury. Ride on an authentic paddle-wheeler down the picturesque Ohio River. The options for seniors looking for a riverboat trip are unique and quite diverse.

A Mid-Size Cruise

Mid-sized cruise ships are ideal for seniors who want all of the amenities without so much walking. Mid-size cruise ships often focus heavily on luxury and experience due to their more intimate size. Just because the ship is smaller, though, doesn’t mean your destination choices are at all limited.

Cruise on an Ocean Liner

American Cruise Lines, Viking, Royal Caribbean, Carnival, and many others have great deals on senior cruises. These types of senior-designed cruises give you everything you would expect from a cruise but feature accessibility and an itinerary more in tune with mature travelers.

See Canada By Train

Take in all of the wonder and beauty of the Canadian Rockies and countryside in a cross-country sleeper-train journey. There are side trips to Lake Louise, and Jasper and Banff National Parks. Best of all, you will be onboard one of the world’s top luxury trains, in a private cabin that features great amenities and fine dining.
