When I was in my thirties, I dismissed any notions of taking a cruise because I thought they were for old people. At forty I cruised the Mexican Riviera with our kids and it totally changed my mind about cruising at any age.
.
I speak from experience and for Seniors, cruising is the one of the best ways to vacation in Europe, the Caribbean, Alaska, and anywhere cruise ships travel. They have guided tours for many of the hottest vacation destinations, you don't have the hassle of booking hotel rooms, and your meals are included in your ticket price (with the exception of tips so bring some cash).

Two years ago we drove through Italy instead of taking a cruise. We'd already been to most of the ports and we wanted to see more of the interior, and northern Italy and up into Switzerland. I am still young enough that I can rent a car in Europe but many seniors can't rent cars because of their age.  

I spent so much time driving that it became more of a chore than working eight hours a day. It's easy to end up on the wrong freeway in Italy, and probably most countries in Europe, and they are mostly toll roads that charge a few dollars each which can really add up.

Finding good restaurants that won't break the bank is also challenging. We stopped at several Autostradas (I think that's what they were called, it's been awhile) and one actually had good food but the rest were substandard. We dined at one out of the way Ristorante that was actually quite good, but also expensive.  All in all, we saw beautiful scenery and places most tourists don't see, like little villages set on the side of a mountain or on top of a hill, but it was also much more stressful.
