13 Affordable World Adventures Perfect for Savvy Senior Travelers

10. Island Hopping the Quieter Greek Isles (e.g., Naxos or Amorgos): Authentic Aegean Affordability

Escape the high prices and throngs of Santorini or Mykonos and discover the authentic charm of less-famous Greek islands like Naxos (with its sandy beaches and ancient ruins) or Amorgos (dramatic cliffs and hiking). Ferries between islands are affordable and offer scenic journeys. Enjoy family-run tavernas, pristine beaches often to yourself, and a more traditional way of life. These islands provide genuine Greek hospitality and stunning beauty at a much more comfortable pace and price. *Savvy Tip: Travel just outside peak July/August for the best balance of good weather and lower prices.
