For everyone who has time and wants to use it – with a tour guide or on your own, but always so that the trip is a pleasure, not work.
I have been travelling for 50 years, and every year how I travel matters more to me: no new hotel every day, no hauling luggage, no stress at the airport. Instead more time in one place, good food and people to sit at the table with in the evening. Here I collect what really suits travellers over 60 – from my own experience, recommended by friends or checked by me.
If you no longer want to organise everything yourself, escorted holidays are a safe bet: one contact person, luggage is carried, excursions are planned – and you are still free to keep an afternoon to yourself. Hafermann Reisen has been doing this for over 100 years, with coach and river holidays from Germany, often with door-to-door pick-up.
A new town outside your cabin door every day, no swell, no packing. River cruises 2027 with early-booking discount until 30 November at Hafermann Reisen.
Comfortable journey, good hotels, personal tour guide – city breaks and relaxation weeks with Hafermann Reisen.
Unpack once, see many ports. Early bookers save at Hafermann until 30 November – and my cruise page explains which ship suits whom.
You do not have to join a group to be comfortable. My recommendations for those who prefer to decide for themselves – with the pages where everything is explained.
Three or four weeks in the same place, a sea-view flat at monthly rates – that is how a holiday becomes a slice of everyday life under palm trees.
Which ship for whom, winter in the Canaries, river trips on the Danube and the Nile – my preparation for my first cruise.
Small towns, good hotels and thermal baths nearby – all within 2½ hours of Zurich.
From St. Moritz to Hawaii – with what matters to us: lift, quiet rooms, good breakfast, parking.
