The Elderhostel is the most unique travel organization I’ve ever
come across offering outstanding opportunities for learning
while traveling; not to mention meet new friends during your
journey. The Elderhostel is a not-for-profit organization
dedicated to providing extraordinary learning adventures for
people 55 and over. From New Hampshire to New Zealand, South
Africa to South Dakota, Elderhostel offers you a world of
educational opportunities - at exceptional values. Their tagline
reads: "The world is our classroom. What do you want to learn?"
There are over 10,000 programs sponsored by the Elderhostel
every year! Some topics include:

• National Parks • Houses and Gardens • Signature Cities • Food
and Wine • Active Outdoor • Architecture • Marine Research •
Ancient Histories • etc.

Regardless if you travel domestically or internationally, the
Elderhostel promises “educational excellence, comfortable
accommodations and delicious meals, extraordinary value, and
warm camaraderie of fellow Elderhostelers.”

They have been running educational travel programs for over 25
years. From personal experience, I'm here to tell you that I'm a
bit jealous of the stories my parents share upon return from
their wonderful adventures domestically and internationally.
Depending on where you live, there is even a commuter program so
you can learn all day and sleep in your own bed at night.

The Elder Hostel now offers a new catalog for their 2003
programs specifically for North America entitled "United States
and Canada." Here is how to reach the Elder Hostel for more
