Excursions for seniors by coach: tips and recommendations

En Hnos. Montoya We plan all kinds of activities with day centers, residences and associations in Madrid. That is why we like to share practical tips to make the most of excursions for older people by coach. Where to start

Put on the belt.

safety first. Although the use of the belt is mandatory, many older people have not yet assumed this practice. In addition to protecting the traveler from any incident, the belt allows us to make a comfortable trip. Especially important not to unfasten it or get out of the seat until the coach is completely stopped.

Comfortable dress.

One of the recommendations we usually offer for excursions for older people by coach is that they wear comfortable and baggy clothes. Similarly, it is also advisable to pay attention to footwear. Proper attire will contribute to the general well-being during the trip and also during the stops.

Exercise.

It is advisable to perform certain exercises when we spend several hours on board the coach. It is recommended to move the joints of hands and feet. And, if before the destination there are stops, take the opportunity to stretch your legs.

Accessories.

When we talk about excursions for older people by coach, it is convenient to keep in mind that many of them carry accessories with them. If there is a need to carry a cane, crutches or walkers, it is best to do without them and place them in the trunk or luggage rack. Always following the instructions of the driver who is responsible for the safety of the trip. Anyway, in Hnos. Montoya we have fully adapted coaches for people with disabilities that we usually use for this type of activities.

The medication

For many people it is essential to take their medication with them. Therefore, it is advisable to always travel with a bottle of water. Similarly, for people suffering from dizziness, we recommend consulting this situation with your doctor to achieve a more pleasant trip.

Light luggage.

We must take on board everything necessary to have a pleasant trip, but without going over. In Hnos. Montoya we recommend that our elders not carry too many things that, in addition to not using them, will make the displacements more uncomfortable.

An opportunity to relax.

The best thing to enjoy the trip is to relax. Take the opportunity to get some sleep, admire the landscape, share with classmates or even read a book. Traveling by bus can be a great nucleoside.

En Hnos. Montoya We enjoy organizing excursions for the elderly. All our team is aware of their needs so that they enjoy the most. Are we taking you?
