What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

Vegan was my favorite place to visit and is definitely a must-see destination in Oslo.

🥉KnowledgeableSeniorSoloTravel - Videos

The Cruise worth it absolutely

🥉KnowledgeableSeniorSoloTravel - Videos

Out of the five places we visited when in Kenya, I thought this region was the most beautiful, mainly because we stayed at the Malo Lodge, which had spectacular views.

🥉KnowledgeableSeniorSoloTravel - Videos

I loved our time there.

🥉KnowledgeableSeniorSoloTravel - Videos

It was truly a magical experience.

🥉KnowledgeableSeniorSoloTravel - Videos
The Watch-outs

the Wi-Fi on this ship was abysmal it was a consistent complaint from most of the passengers on the ship

🥉KnowledgeableSeniorSoloTravel - Videos

the bed wasn't a completely flat surface it was on a tilt that was about a foot drop from head to toe

🥉KnowledgeableSeniorSoloTravel - Videos

I felt I only got a couple of hours of sleep on an over 13 hour flight

🥉KnowledgeableSeniorSoloTravel - Videos

I would probably look for other airlines before flying Korean Air again

🥉KnowledgeableSeniorSoloTravel - Videos

I finally resolved the issue after hours of phone calls so I was a bit soured on koreon Aire before I even got on one of their planes

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for SeniorSoloTravel - Videos.

  1. For seniors, traveling in Kenya can be difficult on the roads, but if you can fly, as we did, it makes the travel much, much easier.

  2. For solo travelers, the biggest hurdle of a Kenyan safari is the expense. I joined a small group, which made the cost more reasonable.

  3. Understand the route and docking situation before booking private excursions.

  4. If enjoying nightlife is important, consider booking a land trip.

  5. For solo travelers, look for deals on transatlantic crossings or repositioning cruises.

  6. Check the Senior Solo Travel website for organized video access.

  7. Join the travel Facebook forum to interact with other travelers.

  8. Check the Senior Solar Travel website for video layouts.
