Day by day

Itinerary

  1. 1

    Charleston, South Carolina

    Mon 13 Sep
    Experience warm Southern hospitality in America’s southeast. Come to know its rich history and deep traditions on this tour highlighted by stays in Charleston, Savannah, and Jekyll Island. Arrive in Charleston, a city that has defied all odds. Charleston has survived the Civil War, major fires, an earthquake, and hurricanes - and still exudes elegance, charm, and grace. If arriving early in the day, perhaps you'll venture out on your own to Patriot’s Point Naval Museum or the Aiken-Rhett House before settling into your accommodations in the Historic District. There are no scheduled activities today. Following a welcome briefing, you’ll have the evening free to enjoy dinner on your own and explore at your leisure.
  2. 2

    Charleston

    Tue 14 Sep
    Decide how to see the city because it’s your choice! Stroll through Charleston’s historic center with a local guide, exploring hidden alleys and quaint areas that are only accessible by foot -OR- take a harbor cruise to Fort Sumter, where the first shots of the Civil War were fired, and chat with a ranger before exploring on your own. Later, make your way to bustling City Market, one of the country’s oldest public markets and the central hub for Gullah sweetgrass basketry – an intricate handicraft of African origin. Explore Boone Hall Plantation and Gardens, one of America's oldest working plantations, and get a historical look inside the original cabins that once housed the enslaved. This evening, join your fellow travelers for a welcome dinner at a local restaurant.

Tonight, gather at a local restaurant for dinner.

    Savannah

    Thu 16 Sep
    This morning, take in the southern charm on a private tour through Savannah's Historic District. The city comes to life as you travel both by trolley and by foot along the cobblestone-paved streets and beneath the moss-draped oaks. Allow the stately mansions, beautiful squares, and romantic riverfront promenades to capture your heart. Your tour ends at the Mercer Williams House, where you will receive a guided tour of the famed home from Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Return to the hotel in time for a late lunch on your own and the afternoon and evening to spend as you wish.

Gather for a tram ride that brings you on a tour of the island and the Jekyll Island Historic Landmark District – one of the nation’s largest restoration projects.

Travel at 60 Social Getaways

Travel further when you're not travelling alone

Our Social Getaways are small-group holidays designed especially for over-60s Australians who want the freedom of a great trip without the work of planning every detail. A Travel at 60 host travels with the group, the operator handles the logistics, and you get to focus on the bit that matters — the people, the places, and the stories you'll bring home.

Open to solo travellers too. Many of our travellers book on their own and find their feet quickly in a friendly group of like-minded Australians. Reduced single-supplement options are available on most departures — ask one of our consultants and we'll talk you through what's offered on this trip.

  • A friendly Travel at 60 host — an Australian face on the ground, looking out for the group from day one.
  • Curated local guides & boutique suppliers — the same operators we'd book for our own families.
  • Real itineraries, not whirlwind tours — comfortable transfers, breathing room, and the “off the beaten track” stops the big bus tours skip.

Want to talk it through? Call 1300 414 198 7 days a week, Queensland time, and one of our consultants will walk you through it.
