Looking for Travel & Adventure?

Posted: Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

Seniors are ready for adventure! As mentioned in Senior Living’s June article by Jane Cassie, called “Ready to Go,” today’s boomers and seniors are moving full-speed ahead.  Whether it’s enjoying a resort or recreational park in one’s own backyard, or something more exotic like a leisure cruise or adventure tour, these ready-for-anything travel enthusiasts are breaking the old stereotypes. With more time on their hands and money in their pocket, they travel more frequently than any other age group and stay longer, they spend 74% more on a typical vacation than any other age group, and they account for 80% of all luxury travel.

I think you completely miss the description of ADVENTURE Holidays. None of those indicated have the slightest "Adventure" in their itineraries. Check out Senior Tours Canada and Collette Vacations. These are operating real adventure trips all over the world.
