excursion to the Dead Sea

In the west, sightseeing tours for pensioners have long been a common and common thing. Today, in Russia, this side of tourism is beginning to gain momentum. Many travel companies began to offer sightseeing tours for pensioners of various categories at affordable prices, making a discount at the expense of their income. And that is great. Some pensioners themselves buy tours and embark on a journey through cities and countries, realizing an old dream. Some are given such a gift by adult children. For tourists of advanced age, all kinds of tours have been specially developed, much cheaper and with a significant simplification of preparation for travel (obtaining a visa to enter the country). Excursion tours organized in completely different directions. This is Russia, and Europe, and the resorts of the Mediterranean, Red or Dead Sea.

Where and when to go

In spring and autumn, interesting excursion routes are offered to pensioners throughout Europe: Italy, France, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Holland, Great Britain, Ireland. These routes are less tiring, the distances are shorter, and priceless treasures noteworthy, immeasurably more. Therefore, such voyages for people of respectable age are the most attractive. Well, the medical resorts of Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Israel and others are suitable for such vacationers all year round. For tours for pensioners (hotel, flight, etc.), tour operators try to make maximum discounts, and this is possible only outside the high season. It is during this period that such trips are most often offered.

All in favor of excursion tours for pensioners

As a rule, tours for older people are designed so that tourists are accompanied by an experienced Russian-speaking employee of the company throughout the trip.

Pensioners are usually accommodated in cozy, quiet, inexpensive hotels, where there is good cuisine.

The excursion program is planned with minor transfers. The acquisition of new like-minded people and friends at literary and dance evenings, walks, movie screenings, quizzes, holidays, birthdays makes sightseeing tours even more attractive and desirable. And, of course, the combination of a decent quality of pension tours with a relatively low cost is another argument in favor of such tours.

Approximate cost

The cost of a weekly European tour for the elderly, depending on the chosen country, starts from 30,000 - 35,000 RUB per person. The price includes flights, transfers, medical insurance, excursion program (3-4 excursions), support of a Russian-speaking guide, meals (breakfasts) and accommodation. Additionally paid: visa (depending on the chosen country), travel insurance (optional), additional medical insurance for those over 65 (optional).

Tourism, like love - all ages are submissive! And this expression is perfectly confirmed by practice! Today, one of the most active categories that purchase tours to travel to different countries are pensioners. We all know that European pensioners travel all over the world, but the most encouraging thing is that domestic pensioners buy tourist vouchers.

Given the demand of consumers and changes in the tourism market, many travel companies offer tours for senior citizens to Israel. Tours for pensioners are very diverse - these are individual and group tours, these are sightseeing and pilgrimage tours, for holidays, but the most popular among pensioners are tours to Israel for health, medical and combined, as well as one-day excursions.

As for one-day trips, this is the most popular type of vacation. At the request of vacationers, a driver with a car, as well as accompanying persons - a guide or security, can be attached to them. Guides who accompany pensioners on a tour for pensioners in Israel speak Russian, so there will be no discomfort in communication, and communication problems too, in addition, all guides are top-class professionals, have licenses from the Israeli Ministry of Tourism for conducting excursions.

Guides in Israel, as a rule, have a higher education and many years of experience working with tourists of various categories, as well as with tourists from the countries of the former CIS. The cost of an individual tour to Israel for a traveling pensioner or tourists of any other category depends primarily on the number of people in the group, as well as on what class of car the travelers choose.

Not a small impact on the cost of the tour is provided by the route of the tour, the distance that you have to travel on the selected tour, as well as the duration of the excursion program. On an individual tour, you can order any route and any excursion, and this is the main advantage of individual tours. After all, if you travel in a group, pensioners do not always feel easy and comfortable in the circle of young people, they cannot always keep up with the young, and an individual tour for pensioners to Israel is an ideal option for spending leisure time and vacations.

Tours for pensioners are different - these are standard tours with sightseeing tours, these are historical excursions, open-air tours to archaeological excavations and visits to archaeological sites. Tours to Israel, called gastronomic and wine tours, are very popular among pensioners, and not only. Tours for pensioners to Israel for gastronomy and wine include visits to enterprises and small farms that produce cheese and wine. At the wineries you can taste the finest Israeli wine, which is in great demand not only among the inhabitants of Israel, but is known throughout the world.

Today, Israeli light wine competes on equal terms with the world's famous wine producers - France, Italy and Portugal. Israel's small farms offer exclusive cheeses made from goat's and cow's milk. More than 100 varieties can be tasted today by going on a gastronomic individual tour of Israel.

There are tours to Israel, at first glance, absolutely not suitable for pensioners, the elderly, but they are in demand - this is a jeep trip through the Negev desert, visiting picturesque oases, national parks, located right in the heart of the desert. Equally popular are tours that include activities such as camel riding, horseback riding, hiking and trekking, as well as beach holiday on the seas of Israel - the Mediterranean, Red, Dead.

Recently, mystical tours have also appeared, where pensioners and everyone is invited to study Kabbalah, where a medium or an expert in this ancient art of predicting fate will introduce several secrets of ancient magic, the tour program includes meals and lectures, conferences that will be held by the most famous Kabbalists of the modern world.

Tours for pensioners and Israel also suggest a romantic getaway, because romance does not depend on age, it is a state of mind, and as practice shows, pensioners are very romantic people. The program of romantic tours, as a rule, includes accommodation in separate cottages. You can order a romantic dinner in a restaurant, or you can take a trip along the Red or Mediterranean Sea on a yacht.

Recently, the Israeli Ministry of Tourism conducted a survey among retirees about traveling within the country and abroad. As the survey data showed, almost 50% of Israeli pensioners aged 65 and older are regular travelers, that is, they constantly travel around the country, vacation in Israel, and go on vacation abroad. As a result of the survey, it became clear that pensioners should not be written off from the tourist markets, since they are a promising category of tourists. After all, Israeli pensioners allow themselves long trips, if we translate this into the language of numbers, we get about 1.8 trips a year.

The total number of pensioners traveling in Israel, both Israeli and retirees who come on tours for senior citizens to Israel from other countries, is 15% of all travelers. Today, the leadership of the Ministry of Tourism of Israel is taking all measures to ensure that travel to Israel for this category of tourists is as accessible and comfortable as possible, no matter what it is, whether it is sightseeing tours with visits to existing attractions or tours with visits to new, attractive for tourists. pensioners excursion programs.

The Israeli Ministry of Tourism invests in the training of guides specifically for work with this category of tourists. According to the results of the survey, 58% of respondents are convinced that its tourist facilities meet all the requirements for visiting them by older people.

Every year Haifa hosts a congress-conference organized by the Israeli Ministry of Tourism. The marketing seminar within the framework of the congress will be held for those who are closely and seriously involved in the organization of tourist recreation for pensioners, developing new tours for pensioners in Israel. Tour guides, club leaders and representatives of volunteer organizations, pensioner welfare services, and those who develop cultural programs for retirees are guided through tourist routes which are of greatest interest to older tourists.

In Europe, tours for pensioners have long become popular. It is not uncommon in Moscow and other large cities that we can meet grandparents from Europe walking around. Why is it not so developed in our country, and what are tours for pensioners? Tours for pensioners are not just tourist trips, they are whole interest clubs. Here people get to know each other before the trip, learn more about each other during the trip and remain good friends after it; make more friends, broaden your horizons and enjoy life. Usually, when traveling with groups of pensioners, there is a guide-interpreter who follows them and helps in every possible way during the most interesting tours. For pensioners, an accompanying guide becomes not just an employee of the company, but a real friend, and in most cases a son or grandson. During such tours, our pensioners reveal themselves from different sides, they begin to feel young and cheerful again.

Which countries are the most comfortable for the elderly?

For a seaside holiday, countries with a mild climate, such as Montenegro, Croatia, Cyprus, Greece, Spain, are most comfortable. For interesting excursion programs, the whole of Europe is suitable in spring or autumn: France, Germany, Italy, Great Britain, Austria, Switzerland, Holland, Ireland. Year-round for older people, the medical resorts of Slovenia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Israel, etc. are ideal.

At what time of the year and at what cost are these tours sold?
