Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is an attempt to analyze the factors which significantly influence tourist activity of the elderly in Poland. On the basis of the specialist literature review, including the results of empirical research, it was indicated that in the case of the elderly the impact of some factors was much higher than it would result from the objective evidence. The scope of the analysis includes the selected conditions, both of a global character (demographic modernization, social modernization, globalization and technological progress) and individual determinants of tourist activity (age, health, professional activity and financial situation).
