Top Travel Blogs For Older People and The Young at Heart:
Welcome to travel blogs over 50 to follow now in 2024 – All blogs featured include destination ideas for USA getaways and some international locations.
Many popular travel blogs feature 20’s or 30s something- beautiful ladies lounging in bikinis on some distant beach. Don’t get me wrong, I have the utmost respect for these gals, but their travel interests always seemed a little more fast-paced than my middle-aged body would allow.
Even though my personal travel pace is slow with a good martini, many of these top travel blogs written by people over 50 are quite adventurous. I’m sure one of these amazing blogs will inspire your future travel itineraries.
Today’s post will highlight some of my favorite travel blogs written by individuals over the age of 50.
1. McCool Travel - Charles McCool
What makes this traveling blog so great is real-world trip advice and tips. When I’m planning a getaway, the most important points for me to know are the best places to dine, top hotels, hidden gems, and authentic images.
McCool Travel Blog manages to provide me with honest, thoughtful perspectives on great locations.
2. One Road at a Time - Post-Retirement Travel
Abi and Patti are an inspiring couple showing how when retirement is done right, the road can lead almost anywhere. I love all the wonderfully written stories highlighting getaways in the USA and beyond.
I find myself very much aligned with this couple’s traveling style, with many articles on national parks, outdoor attractions, and historic points of interest. Consequently, I often read about one of their adventures and wish Steve and I could have tagged along.
3. Family Travels On a Budget - Karen Dawkins
Truth be told, I know Karen personally and she happens to be a good friend. This top over 50 travel writer and I met several years ago at a media event. I’ve certainly learned a lot about travel writing from this amazing lady.
Family Travels on a Budget is a go-to vacation planner for families that often includes cruising, theme parks, small towns, and island getaways. I love family travels on a budget for gathering ideas for trips with the grandkids.
However, not all highlights are just for the family. Guests will also find some really great couples’ experiences.
4. Luggage & Lipstick - Patti Morrow
Luggage and Lipstick creator Patti Morrow is the Boomer blogger this Gen Xer aspires to become. In the first place, this chic is fearless and looks fabulous while jumping out of airplanes, scuba diving, and exploring the world.
This 50-plus women’s adventurous spirit, light-hearted humor, and age-defining beauty will keep you daydreaming about the next stunning location.

5. Travels With Tam - Tammy Minton
Tam is taking you with her on a tour of exotic places. This popular blogger is in love with natural surroundings, luxury destinations, and scuba diving, and cares deeply for the environment.
While I may be touring my home country of the United States, Tam is journalling about her time in Antarctica and other distant lands.

This baby boomer couple traveling the world has more zest than people half their age. Your bucket list will be full after reading about the incredible experiences and destinations of this 50-plus couple.

8. Travelin Mad - Slow Tourism Blog
Lori and Angelo’s Travelin Mad website was my first introduction to the theory of slow tourism. I am not an expert on this style of travel, but it would best be described as staying in a location while immersing yourself in the culture and heritage of that area.
Reading Traveling Mad has my mind spinning with possibilities for future post-retirement journeys. This is a must-read blog for those interested in a new concept of living both in the USA and internationally.
