What our customers ask about England and Ireland Tours for Seniors
How are hotels selected for seniors on England and Ireland tours?
Properties are carefully chosen for both comfort and location - typically 3-4 star hotels positioned near key attractions. The Clayton Hotel Dublin, a popular choice, offers practical amenities like walk-in showers, reliable elevators and restaurants right in the building. Rooms tend to be spacious with modern features that make stays easier for older guests.
How much walking is involved during daily tours?
Each day includes about 2-3 hours of relaxed walking, split into shorter segments with plenty of breaks. At places like Blarney Castle, coaches get guests as close as possible to entrances. Anyone who wants to take it easier can skip certain walking portions - the guides make sure there are always alternatives.
What is included in the standard tour price?
The daily rate of around $338 covers hotel stays, getting around between sites, daily breakfast buffets and five dinners with three courses each. Tour guides and entry tickets to attractions are also part of the package. Companies like Globus handle all the logistics so guests can focus on enjoying their trip.
What is the typical journey time between destinations?
Bus rides usually take 1-3 hours between stops, with breaks every couple of hours. The coaches come with bathrooms, internet access and good seats. Going from London to Bath takes about two and a half hours, including a stop halfway to stretch your legs.
How do tours accommodate dietary restrictions?
Special diets - whether vegetarian, gluten-free or low-salt - can be handled when requested before the trip starts. At breakfast, places like London's Hilton Kensington put clear signs on their buffet showing which foods work for different diets.
What medical facilities are available during the tour?
The big cities on the route - London, Dublin, Edinburgh - have good hospitals near the hotels. The tour company keeps staff on call 24/7, and guides know how to help if someone needs medical care. Some hotels, like London's Park Plaza Westminster Bridge, can get a doctor to come right to your room.
