    My dad is recovering from hip surgery and walks with a walker. He is also incontinent, but has a caregiver who helps him everywhere. I think it would be really nice if he could go somewhere nice and have a vacation this year, just to lift his spirits and help him see that he is not stuck just because he had hip surgery. Does anyone have any advice regarding special tours or vacation packages for people like my dad? Elderly travelers who are not that physically active because they use walkers or canes, but who have caregivers or aids to go with them? Like cruises and such?

    The senior travel industry is growing, and there are many possibilities for your Dad and his caregiver to get away and have a nice vacation, what a great idea!

    Here are some online resources to check, and also check out your local library and senior community centers for possibilities:
