Tourism, as well as love - all ages are submissive! And this expression is best confirmed by practice! Today, pensioners are one of the most active categories that purchase tours to travel to different countries. We all know that European retirees travel all over the world, but the most gratifying thing is that domestic retirees buy tourist vouchers.

Given consumer demand and changes in the travel market, many travel companies offer retirement tours to Israel. Tours for retirees are very diverse - these are individual and group tours, these are excursion and pilgrimage tours for holidays, but the most popular among pensioners are health, medical and combined tours to Israel, as well as one-day excursions.

As for one-day, this is the most demanded type of recreation. At the request of vacationers, a driver with a car can be attached to them, as well as accompanying persons - a guide or security.

Israel's guides, as a rule, have higher education and many years of experience working with tourists of different categories, as well as with tourists from the countries of the former CIS. The cost of an individual tour to Israel for a traveling pensioner or tourists of any other category depends primarily on the number of people in the group, as well as on the class of car chosen by the travelers.

The route of the excursion, the distance that you will have to travel on the selected excursion, as well as the duration of the excursion program, has a significant impact on the cost of the tour. Any route and any excursion can be ordered for an individual tour, and this is the main advantage of individual tours. After all, if you travel in a group, retirees do not always feel easy and comfortable among the young, they cannot always keep up with the young, and an individual tour for retirees to Israel is an ideal way to spend leisure and vacation.

Tours for pensioners are different - these are standard tours with sightseeing excursions, these are historical excursions, in the open air to archaeological excavations and visits to archaeological sites. Tours to Israel, which are called gastronomic and wine tours, are very popular among pensioners, and not only.

Recently, the Israeli Ministry of Tourism conducted a survey among retirees about travel in the country and abroad. According to the survey data, almost 50% of Israeli pensioners aged 65 and over are regular travelers, that is, they constantly travel around the country, rest in Israel, and go on vacation outside of its borders. As a result of the survey, it became clear that pensioners should not be written off from the tourist markets, since they are a promising category of tourists. After all, Israeli pensioners allow themselves long trips, if you translate this into the language of numbers, you get about 1.8 trips a year.

The total number of retirees traveling in Israel, both Israeli and retired who come on retirement tours to Israel from other countries, is 15% of all travelers. Today, the leadership of the Israeli Ministry of Tourism is taking all measures to ensure that travel to Israel for this category of tourists is as accessible and comfortable as possible, no matter what is discussed, whether it is excursion tours with a visit to existing attractions or tours with a visit to new, attractive for retired excursion programs.
