hi we have just been retired a few months and now would like to possibly go and look at the uk especially ireland.. havent checked out the travel shops as yet.. but am looking at maybe march to june next yr.. we are feeling quiet well and reasonably relaxed now so want to do it before our health maybe starts to fail us.. so any ideas.. on travel.. i think i would prefer a tour bus scenario..as i do not drive.. and think that hubby would also like to take in the scenary as well as myself. without having to concentrate on driving especially in another country.. has any one in cafe world experience organised tours.. are they rushed from daylight to sunset.. or time to take it all in.. would like some info before the travel people tell us all the sales blurb. happy to hear from all your aussie travellers.. as we have never been out of oz..

Just do it. You'll need to do quite a bit of research - compare prices, destinations etc. Don't try and do too much - it can be very tiring, so allow time for rest days or quieter days. I usually travel alone - and went to London, and on to Dublin - the latter I hired a car and drove around for a couple of weeks. Traveling gets "in your blood" and it is hard to not dream about it even if you can't go! If you are seniors, look at the offerings of Seniors organisations... Have fun.
