Small group exotic adventures for travelers 50 plus
By Steven Skelley and Thomas Routzong
Mature travelers travel 3 or more times each year. That’s more than any other age group. Mature travelers take nearly 180 million trips per year. That’s 31% of all domestic trips. If you are a mature traveler, you may want to take a look at Eldertreks which offers small group exotic adventures for travelers 50 plus.
We spoke with Amanda Dunning, Marketing Manager of Eldertreks.
In one sentence, what is Eldertreks?
ElderTreks offers small group exotic adventures for travelers 50 plus.
How is Eldertreks an important asset for senior travelers?
ElderTreks helps senior travelers because we remove the hassle of worrying about the logistics (transportation, accommodations, meals, etc) and replace it with authentic and engaging travel experiences. Our clients travel with like-minded individuals who want to see and explore the world the same way. They often create great friendships and some even meet their travel companions for future trips! We believe that senior travel doesn't have to only be large bus tours, we believe we can get more indepth and culturally involved, to have that more authentic, spontaneous and local experience. We provide a welcomed alternative to the traditional senior tour programs for those who love active adventures.
What are some of the challenges of travel over the age of 50?
As one might get more time in their life back after 50, there are always some challenges that crop up with it. Challenges like health concerns, wanting to stay closer to home and family, and comfort levels definitely crop up.
These are all completely valid concerns, and we at ElderTreks try our best to make things as easy as possible for our travelers. We are flexible and understanding if things crop up, and we also offer comprehensive insurance to give clients that piece of mind when they travel (never leave home without insurance!).
In terms of comfort, no matter how busy our days are, we always emphasize comfortable accommodations and some down time at night to relax and recharge. Instead of tents, we have rooms that have their own bathrooms - a true luxury in some parts of the world!
One of the good challenges often is deciding where to go first! Lots of our travelers have this "problem"!

Where do Eldertreks members travel?
ElderTrekkers travel all over the world, to over 80 countries and to all 7 continents. We offer unique experiences that focus on culture, nature and wildlife. Some of our top experiences include our 13-day Cuba tour, trekking with gorillas in Uganda and Rwanda, exploring the Stans of Central Asia and zip-lining in Costa Rica. We have so many incredible, unique and indepth itineraries. Our itineraries are one of our best features, because you see more than the bare minimum - you see the highlights but also the gems that we have searched long and hard to find for our clients. Our travelers are always looking for that next off-the-beaten path place, and as one client put it - ElderTreks goes "where no one else goes". We love that!
How does Eldertreks work?
We offer set small group departures with no more than 16 passengers on our land tours. The small group allows for a more intimate experience while experiencing a new country and culture. We have an experienced Tour Leader that travels with you, helping you to get the most out of your time. Our Tour Leaders are some of the most interesting, engaging and informed experts - on the location, but also with how to run a successful tour. Some of our clients follow our Tour Leaders on their tour, booking their next destination based on where their favorite guides are leading!
In terms of booking, our knowledgeable and friendly sales team will help answer any questions that you have, and when you want to book, just give us a call at 1-800-741-7956.
From there, our Country Directors will keep you up to date and informed before your trip, and (pretty much) all you have to do is pack and show up. We even offer assistance with booking flights and insurance. Although we don't have visa processing services, we can offer some helpful advice on the process and who to contact. Once you get back from your first trip, you are automatically enrolled in the ClubTreks discount program, and you receive a 5% discount on your next trip. It's an easy process so that you feel taken care of from start to finish.
