one the in-laws uses the Fuji mentioned above and seems happy with it
there are a lot of small to smallish superzooms available
if she didn't have some form of a superzoom I would guess there would be a lot of missed shots
as mechmike said, a super zoom almost requires a viewfinder
we met a guy recently who was using this...
amazon.com: Anker 15W Dual USB Solar Charger, PowerPort Solar for iPhone 7 / 6s / Plus, iPad Pro / Air 2 / mini, Galaxy S7 / S6 / Edge / Plus, Note 5 / 4, LG, Nexus, HTC and More: Cell Phones & Accessories?tag=pentaxforums-20& ...to charge his stuff
I recently picked up a Panasonic that uses a proprietary battery but charges quickly from a backup pack that I use for my phone and tablet
if she is taking a cell with her she need a charger of some sort anyway
if she IS taking a phone that really might be all she needs
my wife (who hates using cameras) shot an entire month's worth of travel with her phone
good luck
