Take a Vacation
Shake the cold-weather blues by visiting somewhere warm and exciting. While your idea of fun may have changed in your golden years, there are unique places across the country that are seniorfriendly. Grab your loved ones and plan a vacation to re-invigorate your curiosity and sense of adventure. Some destinations are within easy driving distance for a roadtrip or overnight stay. When planning a more lenghty trip, talking to a travel agent can help score great deals and take care of traveling nuances. They can book your hotel, help find rental vehicles and discover discounted flight tickets if necessary. Many times, bundling different fees can lower costs, giving you more revenue to spend exploring gorgeous destinations. Check out some of the most exciting locations that offer senior citizens a fantastic vacation experience. U.S. NATIONAL PARKS Protected parks in the country provide unreal views, a reconnection with nature and allow seniors to spend time navigating the outdoors. For active people, paddling a canoe or hiking up rugged terrains provide a challenging venture. However, if you have mobility issues or limited physical abilities, many parks offer guided tours. Consider visiting Yellowstone to take in the natural geysers or tour the Smoky Mountains to view amazing
forests, wildlife and flowers. If you’re on a budget, check out the National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Senior Pass for discounted prices and to help provide revenue for the land. HISTORIC DOWNTOWNS Suppose your bucket list includes traveling to locations that are trapped in a time capsule and reserve their historic presence. In that case, visit one of America’s many old-fashioned downtown settings. Spend the afternoon viewing relics from the past while visiting exciting shopping centers and dining spots. Here is a list of hot areas for seniors, as suggested by the American Association of Retired Persons. ASHEVILLE, N.C. Find your paradise in this beautiful town set in the serene Blue Ridge Mountains. If you’re an architect enthusiast, you will be stunned by intricate views of early 20th-century designs. The region is also an outstanding option for those retreating from winter weather as it typically hosts comfortable temperatures throughout the year. When searching for entertainment, Asheville is home to numerous art facilities and niche museums celebrating pinball machines, science centers and the historic Biltmore Estate.
