Over 70s Holidays

Looking to see the world in all its glory, only at a gentler pace?

After seven decades of life, you know what makes a holiday great. This is why we are proud to be a trusted tour operator for senior travellers - we know you appreciate travel like we do! For 37 years, we have run award-winning tours all over the world, from Brazil to France to Kenya, with many of our travellers being in the over 60s and over 70s crowd. So, it's safe to say we are used to offering vacations that wonderfully suit the needs of older travellers when it comes to the quality of accommodation and amenities, as well as the itineraries and those extra special details.

Newmarket Holidays escorted tours for seniors are perfect for over 70s travellers who are excited to see the most unique destinations while being in the company of like-minded people of the same or similar generation. Many of our customers have made life-long friends on our trips. Isn't that wonderful?

Our tours give you the chance to dive deeper into a culture, community, or destination while still having moments of relaxation and times where you can simply take it all in. If you are considering an adventure in Northern Italy, you could find yourself visiting the towns of Lake Garda by fast boat one day, and learning the art of handmade pasta the next. Or perhaps you prefer a stint in India, where you could watch the sunrise over the majestic Taj Mahal one morning and dine with a local family in Jaipur one evening.

We like to believe that life offers opportunities for adventure at any age. So whether you're looking to see the volcanic landscapes of the Canaries while on the sun-drenched deck of a cruise, or visit the hometown of Elvis Presley, know that you will be very well looked after on one of our holidays.
