THE perception that elderly people love a good cruise is bang on, believes former vp of expedition development at Lindblad Expeditions Marc Cappelletti, who was recently interviewed by Reader’s Digest.

“I’ve gone step for step with a 90-year-old woman on a hike in the Galapagos, held the limbo stick for an octogenarian who raised his arms like Rocky Balboa in celebration afterwards,” Cappelletti said.

“I also kayaked in Alaska with a grandmother of 10 who had broken her hip a year earlier”.
