About Us

Take only memories, leave only footprints.

Active Traveller was born from a lifetime spent on the road. Our founder is Mark Montgomery. He has explored 83 countries and counting. His heart is split between Belgium, South Africa and Uganda. He is a trained travel journalist. He is a member of the International Travel Writers Association. For years he has written about the art, music and cuisine that give destinations their soul. He does this through his travel platform, Ten Minute Travel.

Active Traveller takes that same curiosity and applies it to a simple belief. Age should never be a barrier to adventure. We design journeys for active “seniors” who refuse to slow down. These are people who want to walk ancient streets, not just see them from a coach window. They want a genuine taste of local cuisine. They want an evening of live music. They want a quiet moment in front of a masterpiece. 

Every itinerary we create reflects our founder’s own travel philosophy. Seek out the overlooked and the unforgettable in equal measure. This runs from street art to grand opera. It runs from hidden trattorias to Michelin tables. We build every trip around the details that make travel unforgettable.
Every Step Tells a Story. Let us help you write yours.
