Galapagos Cruises for Seniors

We started planning for this trip in 2024; we did not make it in 2024, but finally did it this year. Many thanks to Zicasso and the travel company, who stayed with us and helped us through all the planning and changes; it was much appreciated.

The trip itself was a week of snorkeling, hiking, and seeing the pristine wilderness of Galápagos. It was fantastic.

Our trip to the Galápagos exceeded all expectations! It was a marvelous experience. Zicasso’s travel specialist listened to our wishes, made excellent recommendations, and crafted the most perfect itinerary.

I was guided well in weighing the pros and cons for my style of travel by Zicasso’s travel specialist. The vessel was a relatively new catamaran with low guest numbers, which I appreciated. The catamaran was wonderful, the food was great and diverse, and the staff was very attentive. Our guide was knowledgeable and ALWAYS on the lookout for wildlife on land and sea. The outings were well planned. A+++

Both Zicasso’s travel specialists truly listened to our desires for the trip and were respectful of the budget we gave at the beginning of our conversation. Their responsiveness was top-notch and we felt completely cared for the entire trip. We especially loved the surprise meet-up in person while in Quito! She is wonderful!

This was a trip of a lifetime for us and Zicasso’s travel specialist helped make it run smoothly, with great support throughout our stay. The on-site guides on the mainland and in the Galápagos let us know what to expect each day and handled entrance fees and other details. The advanced planning for the mainland tour included engaging, creative, hands-on experiences like a cooking class and chocolate tour.

It was a magical, full family trip. We had very specific/limited dates we could travel to the Galápagos and Zicasso’s travel specialist found us a wonderful boat that met all our needs and dates. The time on the boat and islands was spectacular.
