A Land of Treasures

Italy is a land of beautiful natural and architectural treasures. They include panoramic landscapes, incredible works of art, educational opportunities, restored villas, and ancient buildings. Most noteworthy, majestic mountains provide a breathtaking backdrop for any adventure, and photo op. In addition, lakeside resorts and luxury hotels offer appealing accommodations that offer splendid amenities fit for royalty.

The temperate climate of Italy makes it one of the best destinations for travel. The summers are hot and dry. The cool alpine breezes in the south and the cool Mediterranean breezes in the north provide a comfortable respite from the heat. Therefore, azure lakes, lush green hillsides, sparkling rivers, cool seas, and breezy islands are the lures for Senior Travel.

Travel agents, tour operators, and hotels offer discounted services to senior citizens and older adults. Thus making it an even more affordable and rewarding experience. In addition, senior citizens can triple up with discounts, acquiring a discounted travel ticket, hotel stay, and tour package.


Related Travel Specialty: ESCORTED TOURS


Escorted tours come in an eclectic array of themes for older adults. They include wine-tasting lessons, Italian cooking lessons, deluxe spa packages, and city tours or cruises being the most popular. In addition, tours are available in shorter and longer versions providing flexibility for the traveller with limited energy or mobility. Therefore, walking tours conducted at a leisurely pace, treat visitors to a trip back in time, along authentic back streets of restored medieval villages.

Popular destinations within Italy? They include Rome, Venice, Naples, Florence, and Tuscany. As a result, older adults travelling to those destinations will enjoy them better in March or November when they are least crowded. Since national holidays and summer tourism bring higher prices and crowds.

An Endless Variety of Culinary Delights

Travelling through Italy is like travelling through a seemingly never-ending variety of culinary delights. Italian cuisine spans a wide berth of textures and flavours. From the thick and creamy consistency of comfort foods to the sophistication of special entrees. Robust and legendary local delicacies will have many travellers coming back for more.

Each locale has its own specialty or particular cuisine that has a reputation for being the absolute best in all of Italy. For example, the farther north a traveller goes, the better the cafes and cured meats. The farther south they venture, the better the gelato, or ice cream. The northern part of Italy offers warmth and elegance to its cafes that caresses travellers with a welcoming sense of belonging. Parts of southern Italy, particularly in the mountainous regions, provide a simple and modest meal that is filling. Modest influences from neighbouring countries impinge on the taste buds as well, including those from France and Austria.

An Experience of a Lifetime

Above all, Italy has so much to offer older adult and senior citizen travellers who are looking for an unforgettable and experiential adventure. Like listening to the melodic notes of a musical performance streaming from a cathedral. The words of the Gregorian Chant of the monks coming from the windows of a historic monastery provide a delightful memory. In addition, sampling some of the best wines from northern Italy and tantalizing the taste buds even further with truly authentic Italian cuisine gives pause to the realization of some of the true pleasures in life.

Shopping for true Italian products, visiting old historic places, relaxing in a beauty spa, and travelling from region to region, captures the heart of the sightseer and beckons them back for more. Enjoy the simplicity of the mountainous regions where evidence of the past still exists in their way of life. And, revel in the nightlife and entertainment of Italy’s sophisticated cities where something is always happening. Visit Italy for the experience of a lifetime.
