Seeking up to date information on Galapagos island tours for seniors.

[cenmn18]

Looking for recommendations on senior tours utilizing smaller ships for Galapagos tours. Looking for a slightly slower paced experience. Are some "loops" better than others for wildlife viewing/photo opportunities? Is the Charles Darwin Research Station a must see or more hype than worthwhile?  Thank you for taking the time to respond.

The only thing I can recommend is looking at companies that specifically work with seniors, such as Road Scholar 

 

This site, if you scroll down, has some good information on the various islands

There is a Galapagos forum on TripAdvisor that may help.

The Galapagos islands require a lot of walking over mostly uneven terrain. Did it about 14 yrs ago. Now 75. If you are fit and walk regularly, it shouldn't  be a problem.

You might want to look at Overseas Adventure Travel. Their clientele trends older and they are paced for that.

Their itineraries are longer, 2 plus weeks, as they include either Machu Picchu or the Ecuador’s Amazon.

We booked through Alexander & Roberts on the La Pinta. Great experience! I will provide more details if anyone is interested.
