Are you looking to explore the world from the comfort of your own home? Or perhaps you’re planning a trip and in need of some tech advice? Look no further!
Senior Planet has just launched an exciting new travel page catered to armchair adventurers and jetsetters alike. On this page, you can expect to find:

According to Alex Glazebrook, VP of Program Operations at Senior Planet, “Technology can be a great tool for older adults looking to explore the world. Virtual tours have advanced significantly, allowing individuals to experience new places without leaving home. For those planning to travel, technology advancements have made tasks like navigating a new city or communicating in a foreign language much simpler than before.”
Travel-related programs have been gaining popularity at Senior Planet, and the new travel page will be regularly updated with new tours, classes, and resources.
