SWT Tours Information

Mary Ann Zimmerman is president and founder of Senior Women's Travel, SWT Tours. and the newest division of her travel company, Hudson Valley Journeys. Senior Women's Travel focuses on trips for 50+ women with a passion for travel. It was founded on the premise that "your travel days are not over." Senior women -- widowed, divorced, or with a mate who no longer wants to travel -- should still be able to travel with zest, comfortably and safely, Ms. Zimmerman believes. Senior Women's Travel recently expanded to include a new division, SWT Tours, travel for both men and women of all ages. The list of tours now includes trips with universal appeal such as Travel-By-the-Book Literary Tours and our Theatre Tours. The mission of SWT Tours is to create trips unlike any others. For example, Ms. Zimmerman believes there is nothing like the Venice Literary Tour and, although there are hundreds of culinary trips, the Venice/Friuli cooking week offers a unique combination of unusual food experiences. After being a life-long resident of New York City, Ms. Zimmerman moved to the Hudson Valley region in 2007 to escape the city's high cost of living. Little did she realize that she was moving to one of the country’s most vibrant regions.
