Chile Tours for Seniors

We would give this a 4.5-star rating. Overall, our trip was very enjoyable and went smoothly. We would recommend the services of this Zicasso travel company for arranging a trip to Patagonia. The logistics were well taken care of and the tour guides were all knowledgeable and personable. Communication during the planning phase and during the trip was easy. We spent three nights each in Santiago, Torres del Paine, El Calafate, Bariloche, and Buenos Aires.

We just returned from our two-week trip to Chile, planned for my 60th birthday. My boyfriend and I had the most spectacular trip! Zicasso's travel company put together an amazing itinerary, designed to meet all our requirements for experiences, logistics, uniqueness, and our desired activities. From my first call with the travel specialist, I felt the responsiveness, personalization, and high level of service his company provided. I couldn’t have asked for anything more in a travel partner.

We had three stops – a winery in the Colchagua Valley, a boutique hotel in the Patagonia Lakes region, and a lodge in southern Patagonia, near Torres del Paine National Park. The recommendations on lodging were so perfect. Each was intimate, with such a high level of service and uniqueness. We loved that they were all inclusive, with meals and excursions included. This allowed us to adjust our plans day to day, based upon weather and how we were feeling. The travel specialist also made arrangements to make sure I had a very special birthday celebration, which was absolutely wonderful.

It was a very well-organized trip with a lot of attention to detail. The tour guides were professional and kind. I fell sick the first day in Santiago and the hotel staff were extremely helpful with organizing a doctor and helping me get appropriate medication in the middle of the night. Patagonia is a truly wonderful place and the arrangements were excellent. Thank you.

Zicasso’s travel agent was excellent and very responsive when we had issues during travel.

We were very disappointed in the tours in Ushuaia. The four-hour tour of the national park lasted less than three hours, with the guide spending more time on his phone than being a tour guide. Also, on the second tour, the guide was fabulous; however, six adults (all seniors) were crammed into a small SUV that you had to literally crawl out of. This made for a very uncomfortable day.
