Midlife Travel Is Getting More Intense (and More Expensive)

from The Midlife Guys · host The Midlife Guys

In the third and final episode of our series on midlife travel, Mike and Andrew look at today's trends—and how they've changed over the years. Travel advisor Joseph Briere joins to describe the pivot away from passive tourism toward something more deliberate and immersive, whereby travelers are looking for more authentic experiences, like hiking into Machu Picchu instead of taking the train. Even formats once associated with retirees—like river cruising along the Nile River—are being reimagined for a younger, more active audience that values access and authenticity over formality.
