What people love about Western USA Tours for Seniors
the canyons were amazing each one different , , our guide was brilliant explaining what we would see, and how the rocks and canyons were formed, the optional extras were worth it, especially the helicopter through the Grand Canyon. The flight was brilliant and the grandeur of all the canyons breath taking, The trip was tiring as early starts of 6am /7am but could understand why that was necessary, an extra day in Durango would have been nice so we could of had a trip on the train,, maybe something to consider for future trips, We both thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would recommend it
Canyon Country Showcase
This tour unfortunately had a number of delays that seemed to take away an amount of time we could have had more experiences. Some beyond the tour directors control. We had three drivers and two tour directors. There were 22 on our coach twenty Americans and two Aussies. All got along famously and formed a solid bond. The sights we saw will live on in our memories for a very long time. Overall we give this tour 8/10.
Exploring America's Great Parks
- Western Wonders
Ken was excellent...a true asset to Cosmos. We did a lot in the time allocated, tho another day in LA, Vegas and SF would have been better, as, if we arrived in the pm, one whole day was gone. We would've paid an extra $10 per day each for breakfast....would've saved a helluva lot of hassles, esp for seniors.
What our customers ask about Western USA Tours for Seniors

Most travelers on Western USA senior tours are between 48-71 years old. Numbers from TourRadar show the Cosmos' Western Wonders tour draws guests around 64 years old while Collette's National Parks tour tends to attract people closer to 71. These tours are designed with older travelers in mind. A TourRadar guest noted "The pacing was more suited to older guests" which reflects how the experiences are tailored to senior preferences.
What type of accommodations can seniors expect on Western USA tours?
The tours use well-chosen hotels that put comfort and location first such as Lake Powell Resort and Sheraton Maui Resort and Spa. "The hotels were very nice and you can't beat the scenery" shared one TourRadar guest. Hotels typically have elevators good access to food and are picked for their closeness to main sights. Yavapai Lodge at Grand Canyon shows this approach with its easy reach to park areas and places to eat.
What is the best time of year for seniors to visit Western USA?
The sweet spots for senior travel are spring (April-May) and fall (September-October). These months bring pleasant weather and fewer tourists. Booking records show seniors prefer September and October most. As one TourRadar guest put it: "We went in September and the weather was perfect - not too hot for walking but still sunny and clear for sightseeing."
Are meals included on Western USA senior tours?
Tours typically cover breakfast daily plus some dinners while letting you choose your own lunch spots. Cosmos' Western Wonders provides 3 breakfasts and multiple dinners. Insight Vacations includes 6 breakfasts and 3 dinners with wine. According to a TourRadar guest: "The included meals were good quality and when meals weren't included our guide always recommended suitable restaurants for seniors."
What medical facilities are available along Western USA tour routes?
The tour routes stay within reach of medical care. Places like Sheraton Kona Resort and Grand Vista Hotel in Grand Junction are near hospitals. Tour guides know the local healthcare options and can help if needed. A TourRadar guest mentioned: "Our guide was well-prepared with information about medical facilities at each stop."
