About Us

Seniors in Melbourne is a travel and lifestyle publication dedicated to inspiring midweek adventures, practical travel tips and personal recommendations for exploring Melbourne and Victoria. 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 over-60s community.

The publication is founded and edited by Amy Gardner, a tourism communications specialist who began the project as a way to spend more meaningful time exploring Melbourne with her parents. What started as weekly outings together has grown into a curated collection of experiences, stories and recommendations designed to make Melbourne more accessible and enjoyable for others in similar life stages.


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, regularly contribute ideas and insights from their own adventures, alongside a growing network of community contributors who share their own experiences and recommendations.

Seniors in Melbourne is committed to showcasing active, engaging lifestyles in later life and to challenging outdated assumptions about ageing. We work with tourism and hospitality partners who share a commitment to accessibility, inclusivity and meaningful visitor experiences, helping support local businesses across Victoria.
