Boomers Resources

We intrepid boomers keep on trekking, biking, hiking and exploring the world. Here are my boomers travel resources, complied from decades of travel. 


Every boomer traveler I know tells me they prefer more creature comforts than when they were younger. Camping intents or backpacking is out for most boomers. Many have more safety concerns and wonder about the physical rigors of the trip. If you are going on a cruise, river cruise or organized tour, you should be able to talk to a representative at the tour company as well as speak to a past passenger who can offer you recent information and a perspective from a fellow boomer traveler. Doing research and speaking to people who have gone where you want to travel is a key element of planning.
