Seniors in Melbourne is a travel blog dedicated to providing midweek itinerary inspiration, insightful travel tips and personal recommendations from our team of retirees exploring Melbourne. You can use this website to research and plan fun outings in the city.

Recognised by the Victorian Tourism Industry Council (VTIC) as a Quality Tourism Accredited Business, it is the first and only Melbourne travel website to specifically target the senior demographic.

I’m a tourism communications specialist who is eager to spend more time with my aging parents. So I’m heading out with them every week to explore Melbourne and share with them my love of travel.

My mission is to curate the best senior-friendly activities, encouraging others to embark on new adventures, connect with like-minded travellers, and rediscover the joy of exploring Melbourne’s diverse landscapes and communities.

My folks, Chris and Terrie, are helping me to curate a master list of fun things to do across Melbourne for seniors and over 60s. My in-laws, Rob and Diane, are getting involved too, as well as various guest contributors from our growing community.

Committed to combating ageism by showcasing the active, adventurous lifestyles of retirees, we work with tourism businesses that cater to retirees, supporting the local economy and promoting inclusivity.

Please join us, get involved and head off on your own adventures. Let us know how you get on, we’d love to hear from you.

WORK WITH US

We would love to hear about your brand and have a chat about how we can work together.

Our readers want to hear about fun mid-week things to do in and around Melbourne that cater to the unique needs of seniors, without making them feel like they are old or fragile, (they aren’t!)

If your target market is seniors who live in Melbourne, Victoria or Australia then consider advertising with us to promote your business.

Collaboration opportunities will be considered for content relating to:

  • Midweek things to do in Melbourne CBD that are fun, accessible, and easy to get to;
  • Dining venues across Melbourne, preferably open midweek for lunch;
  • Midweek travel destinations in Melbourne and Victoria;
  • Travel products and services that relate to seniors.

Please do get in touch, we look forward to working with you.
