Santa Cruz de Tenerife has opened registration for its 2027 "active aging" trips to Granada, offering residents over 60 an all-inclusive cultural travel program with applications due by November 12.

Santa Cruz de Tenerife has opened registration for its 2027 trips to Granada, a key part of the city’s "active aging" initiative. Organized by the City Council and the Insular Institute for Social and Socio-sanitary Care (IASS), the program aims to help residents over 60 stay socially active and connected to their community.

The trips are scheduled for two sessions: January 30 to February 4, and April 24 to 29, 2027. For 233.32 euros, participants receive an all-inclusive package that covers flights, four-star hotel accommodation with full board, and a full itinerary of cultural tours. Planned excursions include the Alhambra and the Albaicín in Granada, the historic towns of Úbeda and Baeza, the Alpujarra region, and the Costa Tropical.

Applications must be submitted by November 12. To be eligible, residents must have lived in the municipality for at least three years, meet specific health and mobility requirements, and not have participated in the previous IASS social tourism campaign. Income-based criteria are also in place to ensure fair access. Spouses or domestic partners may join even if they are under 60, provided their relationship is verified.

You can apply online via the municipal electronic office or in person at the Citizen Attention and Information Offices (OAIC). For further assistance, you can call the 010 service.

These programs are designed to improve the quality of life for seniors while supporting the local tourism sector. As the city prepares for these future trips, it is also finalizing the first excursion of the current campaign, which departs this Saturday, November 14. Mayor José Manuel Bermúdez and Councilor for Social Policies Charín González have encouraged all applicants to follow the necessary documentation and safety protocols to ensure the trips run smoothly.
