What you want from your adventures is different for each person but one thing we can all agree on is that travel is a fantastic and valuable experience that is good for everyone, regardless of age.

Travel has the ability to challenge us and expand our perspectives, but it also offers an escape from the drone of everyday life. There are benefits to traveling when you’re young because it forces you to become independent and learn to budget like a pro. And then when you’re older, it gives you more appreciation and opens you to new experiences because you’re less likely to want to do the same things you did in your youth.

For young people, the expectations of what makes a good trip are often quite different from that of the older generation, and there are certain destinations that suit different age groups better than others. For senior travelers, a relaxing trip may be just what you’re after, or perhaps a place that’s filled with culture-rich activities, historic sights, and beautiful beach holidays, while the younger generation may be more interested in summer parties, water parks, and pub crawls.

Below are 10 places that are perfect for younger people, and 10 places that are more suited to the older generation.
