The travel bug doesn’t need to wane as we age. With potentially more time on our hands, there’s a whole world out there to explore. We’d love to hear about a special travel adventure you’ve had in your 60s, 70s or even 80s. Whether it was hiking in the Himalayas, a first-time solo or group trip, or an inspiring weekend somewhere more local, we want to hear about it.
The best tip of the week, chosen by Tom Hall of Lonely Planet wins a £200 voucher to stay at a Coolstays property – the company has more than 3,000 worldwide. The best tips will appear in the Guardian Travel section and website.
