What people love about Mediterranean Tours for Seniors
- Iberian Explorer (13 Days)
The participants were friendly. Travel Director Jorge was excellent. I just want to be cleared next time of optional tour
- Spain, Portugal & Morocco
Well organised and thoughtful guide. Stayed calm and good interaction with diverse types of passengers.
- Balkan Delight (11 Days)
A wonderful trip. The countries were beautiful, the people lovely and I loved the history. It was especially good since we had such a wonderful tour guide, Kassie. She was attentive, very organized, made everyone feel comfortable and was always alert to anyone's needs. Also, our bus driver, Bozo, was an excellent driver and always very helpful. A great tour guide and bus driver always makes a trip more wonderful.
What our customers ask about Mediterranean Tours for Seniors
What is the typical physical activity level required for Mediterranean tours?
The physical demands are light to medium on most Mediterranean tours. Daily activities often include short walks through old towns and historic areas. On the Scenic Slovenia & Croatia tour, guests walk at an easy pace through cities and take comfortable coaches between stops. Some locations require a bit more effort - like the paths at Plitvice National Park where the ground is uneven. A basic level of fitness helps guests fully enjoy these experiences.
What type of accommodation can seniors expect on Mediterranean tours?
Guests stay in well-located 3-4 star hotels equipped with modern comforts. The Cosmos Croatia tour books properties like Hotel Jezero near Plitvice National Park and Porto Hotel in Zadar. These hotels offer practical amenities like elevators and are usually within walking distance of main attractions, restaurants and shops.
What's included in a typical Mediterranean senior tour price?
The Costsaver Iberian Explorer tour at $2,410 represents typical inclusions: 12 breakfasts, 4 dinners, air-conditioned coach transport between destinations, and local guides who lead city tours and site visits. Most Mediterranean tours follow a similar pattern, covering hotels, many meals, transport and guided activities in the base price.
What medical facilities are available during Mediterranean tours?
Modern hospitals and medical centers are readily available in major stops like Split, Dubrovnik and Venice. Tour companies like Trafalgar keep direct contact with local healthcare providers. Their tour directors know how to help with medical needs, though travel insurance remains essential for coverage.
What is the best time of year for seniors to visit the Mediterranean?
The most pleasant months are April-May and September-October. During these periods, temperatures stay moderate at 65-75°F (18-24°C) and tourist sites are less crowded. Emerald Cruises schedules extra trips during these months since the weather suits older travelers better.
How are meal arrangements handled for seniors with dietary restrictions?
Tour providers adapt meals for different dietary needs - whether vegetarian, kosher or health-related. At Insight Vacations' planned dinners, such as their Dalmatian Coast evening in Dubrovnik, the kitchen can prepare special meals when told ahead of time.
