Set Sail on an Adventure to Remember
River and Ocean Cruise Vacations Planned by Certified Cruising Experts
Are you yearning to just pack your bags, climb aboard, and sail off into a world-class sunset? Ready to leave all your worries back on shore?
Then it’s time to call up the cruising experts at Kaleidoscope Travel & Cruise.
We LOVE cruising (it’s in our name, after all!). Our team of experienced travel specialists will work with you to determine which cruise line best fits your needs, budget, and cruising personality.
No two cruises are the same — and no two travelers are, either. Our experts don’t just book your cruise vacation. We play vacation match-maker, pairing you with the perfect ship and itinerary.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed trying to choose your own cruise line, ship, cabin class, itinerary, excursions, dining plan — and the list goes on — leave the details to us. We even take care of your flights, pre- and post-stays, shore excursions and online check in.
All you have to do is pack your bags and get ready to cruise!

Adventure Travel
For A Journey That Takes You Farther, Deeper, and Leaves You Changed Forever
Adventure Travel and Tours Planned by Specialists
You’re not just looking for any old vacation.
You’re in search of a journey that takes you to the farthest reaches of the globe, off the beaten track, and into a land of wonder …
To vast plains where lions hide in the tall grass, or to jungles where monkeys swing deftly from tree limb to tree limb …
To spellbinding places that will test your strength, challenge your will, and leave you changed forever …
In other words? You’re ready for an ADVENTURE. And we’d love to take you there.
Spellbinding Safaris
Spy graceful antelope, stealth cheetahs, and mighty buffalo from your very own 4-wheel Jeep, driven by a knowledgeable guide. After a day of tracking wildlife through otherworldly terrain, you can retire back at your safari lodge, where homemade meals and private plunge pools await you. An African safari is the ultimate blend of adventure and just-say-ah relaxation.
Heart-Pumping Guided Excursions
From zip-lining through the jungles of Costa Rica to climbing the sacred steps of Machu Picchu, an adventure tour takes you right to the heart of the incredible natural and cultural wonders of South and Central America — and beyond. Home stays with the locals, quirky boutique hotels, or luxurious eco-lodges become your backdrop for adventure.
Intimate Small-Group Getaways
Forget crowded mega buses and walking tours that make you feel like a herd of cattle. Today’s top adventure tours are nimble and intimate. We’ll pair you with a reputable small-group tour company that’ll get you closer to the action than you ever thought possible. You can even embark on a themed tour tailored to your interests, or a river cruise with adventurous excursions.
Adventure in Comfort and Style — and Do It Safely
Adventure travel takes you to the far reaches of the earth — often to places that are a little less used to welcoming tourists.
That’s why it’s so important to work with adventure travel specialists, like the team at Kaleidoscope Travel, to help you design a custom journey that’s safe, comfortable, and precisely planned to your unique needs.
Get in touch with one of our adventure travel specialists today to start planning your epic travel adventure!
Family Vacations
The family that vacations together is the family that discovers together.
And laughs, hugs, gasps, and grows together, too.
Simply put — your family vacation is so much more than just a vacation.
It’s your chance to strengthen your bonds, cultivate curiosity, and turn precious moments into memories that you’ll all treasure forever.
Let the family travel specialists at Kaleidoscope Travel & Cruise design the perfect trip for your family today!
Designing Disney Dreams
Nothing beats a classic Disney vacation.
Whether it’s the thrill of meeting Mickey at the theme parks, sailing away on the ultra family-friendly Disney Cruise Line, or exploring the world with Adventures by Disney tours, your Disney vacation will leave the whole family smiling from mouse ear to mouse ear!
