Your 50s are the new 20s!

Travelling doesn’t stop when you reach your fifties. In fact, you can approach it in a whole new way. There are endless of opportunities to travel, relax and socialise with great friends and companions by your side – or if you’d prefer, why not go it alone?

Where could you go?

The world is a big place and there’s a never-ending list of places to discover, whether you stick to Europe or go beyond to far-away continents. Across these five destinations, you can find relaxation, excitement and plenty of culture, offering a little bit of everything. Here are five destinations you shouldn’t miss on in your 50s:
​
  • Phuket, Thailand: While Thailand is commonly associated with young travellers, that’s not to say that those in their fifties can’t have an equally amazing time. Thailand, and more specifically Phuket, offers an incredible variety of activities and sights to see. Make the most of white sandy beaches, turquoise seas, plus stunning temples and shrines on the country’s largest island. When it comes to food, you’ll be spoilt with southern-Thai cooking delights that incorporate Chinese and Malay flavours.
 
  • Lost City of Petra, Jordan: a Jordan tour to the Lost City of Petra is a brilliant trip to add to your travel list. It’s filled with mystery and archaeological intrigue, standing amidst rugged desert and carved into the mountains. It’s thought to have been crafted by the ancient Arabic people during the time of the Nabataeans and built in 312BC. There’s no wonder it’s now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Beyond this landmark however, you can see the grand outdoor theatre and a number of majestic tombs.
 
  • Tecate, Mexico: For a rich dose of culture and a feast of smells, tastes and sights, Tecate in Mexico is the perfect choice. You can tuck into burritos, sip local craft-coffee and drink Mexican beer to your heart’s content. If you time your visit wisely, you can also attend the annual Day of the Dead celebrations to really immerse yourself amongst the iconic La Catrina skeletal creatures and feathered outfits.
 
  • Dalmatian coast, Croatia: The Dalmatian coast in Croatia is iconic for anyone seeking out crystal clear waters and stunning scenery. Being an archipelago, Croatia offers plenty of exploration across a relatively short distance, making it ideal for anyone wanting to seek out a range of sights while travelling. From Split to Hvar, Dubrovnik to Brač, you’re spoilt for choice with larger towns and villages, all within close proximity to the sparkling Adriatic Sea.
 
  • Madeira, Portugal: High cliffs, pebbly beaches and a warm climate, Madeira is a beautiful destination that experiences a touch of the African climate while still being located in Europe. Also known as the ‘Floating Garden of the Atlantic’, it’s home to an array of botanical gardens, volcanic caves and natural parks. Perfect for anyone with an interest in the natural world.
 
From the exotic turquoise seas of Phuket to the volcanic caves of Madeira, the top 5 destinations mentioned above offer a perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, cultural experiences and natural wonders.
