"The Slow Travel Co. team did an amazing job planning a getaway for my daughter and me to celebrate my retirement. As a 65-year-old woman, I wasn’t able to do all of the things and move as quickly as I used to,
but they planned out all of the transportation and tours to fit my needs, and it went amazingly. Trip of a lifetime. I’ll never forget it."

"I went on a long weekend away on a Slow Travel Retreat and had a great time. I really enjoyed the more leisurely approach to vacationing. There were moments when I felt like I should be doing something or going somewhere, but then I reminded myself that I wanted my vacation to be relaxing. So, I relaxed! There were just the right amount of activities to feel like I saw the city, but not too many to feel burnt out."

"I would recommend this trip for active senior women. There are no hidden surprises or additional fees. The trip is safe, well planned and an active senior can still learn much about the world during Slow Travel's trips. I was surprised how easy the solo traveler (myself) and group travelers meshed as a group. I never felt like "odd man out.""
