Day by day

Itinerary

  1. 1

    Cross the English Channel to Paris

    Meet your Travel Director before saying cheerio to London and hello, sparkling White Cliffs of Dover, England's last hurrah before you cross the English Channel by ferry bound for Calais. You'll pass the tragic World War I battlefields of the Somme before arriving in Paris, where you will enjoy dinner. This evening the 'City of Light' provides an enchanting backdrop for an orientation drive that will showcase several of the sights which await you tomorrow.

  2. 2

    Explore the Sights of Paris

    Embark on a scenic sojourn, with your Local Specialist, along the grand Champs-Élysées to see the Arc de Triomphe, honouring those who fought for France. See Notre Dame Cathedral and enjoy a stroll through the Latin Quarter. This afternoon, you’ll have some leisure time to explore the treasures of Paris. Relax at a cosy French cafe and enjoy a glass of wine while watching the world go by.

  3. 3

    Onwards to Explore Lucerne

    Wind your way through the sprawling vineyards of Auxerrois and Burgundy, journeying south past the 15th-century fortress of Châteauneuf and rolling green farmlands into Switzerland bound for Lucerne. Cross the famous wooden Chapel Bridge with its 17th-century paintings and view the mortally wounded lion hewn from rock, paying tribute to the hundreds of brave Swiss Guards who died defending Louis XVI.

  4. 4

    Journey to the Floating City of Venice

    The contrast of scenery today is nothing short of remarkable. Traversing the Alps, you'll travel through the St. Gotthard tunnel and cross the border into Italy. Catch a glimpse of northern Italy's beautiful lakes, whose scenic retreats have attracted the aristocracy for centuries, before arriving this afternoon in Venice.

  5. 5

    On to Florence

    Take to the water and board a private motor launch to the gateway of Venice, St. Mark's Square. View the Bridge of Sighs and ornate Doge's Palace, then make your way to a workshop to witness the traditional Venetian craft of glassblowing. Watch master craftsmen use centuries-old techniques to shape the delicate glass pieces Venice is famed for and perhaps be inspired to buy your own souvenir as a reminder of this special visit. Later, there’s time to explore the hidden 'calli' and 'campi' of Venice, to fit in some shopping, or soak up the sights and sounds of the Queen of the Adriatic before crossing the Apennine Mountains bound for Florence, the 'Cradle of the Renaissance'.

  6. 6

    Journey to Rome

    The magnificent Renaissance dome of Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral and the Baptistery stand imposingly in the centre of Florence and are among the sights you will view during our guided walking tour with a Local Specialist. Delve into the city’s rich cultural, artistic and architectural heritage, then learn about the quality and workmanship of one of this city's historic industries at a demonstration of Florentine leathercraft. Marvel at the impressive palazzi and art in the Piazza della Signoria, the political hub of the city. Rome is your final stop today.

  7. 7

    Uncover Ancient Rome

    Rome opens up with your Local Specialist as you take in St. Peter’s Square and view the mighty Colosseum, one of the city’s great ancient icons. Later, enjoy time to explore at your own pace or perhaps join an Optional Experience with a Local Specialist, following a route with views over the Roman Forum and the streets of the Jewish Ghetto. This evening, cross to Isola Tiberina for your Be My Guest experience, sharing food, stories and good company as you connect with the Italian zest for life.

  8. 8

    Farewell Rome

    Our adventure together has come to an end. Say a fond farewell to Rome and your travel companions at the end of your journey.

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.
