Kid-Friendly Argentina Vacation: Waterfalls & City Lights

Zicasso’s travel specialist planned the honeymoon of our dreams! She seamlessly scheduled our time in Buenos Aires and Patagonia.

Our excursions included a tango show, hikes, mini-trekking on Perito Moreno Glacier, and horseback riding on an estancia. Our lodging and transportation were so convenient.

We would not have been able to plan this ideal trip without her expertise. She kept in consistent contact with us prior to and throughout our stay, and provided us with great food recommendations and travel tips. We got the full Argentine experience and we would do it all over again!

We enjoyed the trip very much. We had planned to visit every place of interest to us in Patagonia on this trip, so it was quite a complex trip to arrange. Zicasso’s travel specialist did a great job overall. We had private guides and private cars for everything, so we could enjoy the experiences at our own pace and focus on the things that interested us.

We started in Buenos Aires, but our main focus was natural beauty. We spent a very interesting day and a half in the city, though. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the local history and the sites we visited. Next we went to Iguazú Falls, which was a spectacular experience. Our guide there was the only one who didn't seem as deep or as organized as all the others, but that was a minor issue. Although it is wickedly expensive, I would highly recommend that travelers stay in the one and only lodge inside the Iguazú Falls national park. We got a lot more out of our time there because we were right there at the park.

Next we went to the Lake District and spent memorable days on the water there; amazing scenery! We also saw condors during one of our day-long boat rides on the lake.

Next, we went to Calafate. Although we are not trekkers, the visits to the two main glaciers were unforgettable. The travel specialist had us in the VIP cabin for the day-long boat trip and we had a very knowledgeable guide for the visit to the Perito Moreno glacier.

We did the four-day cruise through Tierra del Fuego next, which I highly recommend, ending in Chile, where we spent two days at the Torres del Paine National Park, one by road in the park with a very knowledgeable private guide, and the second on a full-day lake tour with a marvelous lunch at a scenic ranch, with a close-up view to a glacier.

The trip was amazing. We enjoyed every part of our travel—Buenos Aires, Ushuaia, and Antarctica. Zicasso’s travel company planned a very exciting vacation experience. They were caring, understanding, and reliable throughout the vacation. The travel company booked exciting tours and excellent accommodations. This travel company met our needs and made us feel safe and informed. We would recommend them to travelers seeking vacation planning in South America.

We went mostly into Patagonia and Torres del Paine, an amazing location. Zicasso’s travel specialist delivered as promised! Everything was first-class and his recommendations for everything from tours to restaurants were right on.

A special note to those with food allergies:

I have a lot of food allergies, so it is not easy for me to eat out, let alone out of the country. I let the travel specialist know ahead of time and all my tours, hotels, and guides knew I was coming and really helped to accommodate me. THANKS AGAIN!

I was impressed by the Zicasso team’s planning ahead of time and the level of responsiveness once we were in the middle of our trip. Our accommodations, tours, excursions, and planned activities were all very high quality given our budget, and any issue that we encountered during the trip was handled quickly and to our satisfaction time and time again. I would recommend this agency to anyone who wants to travel to Argentina.

Zicasso’s travel specialist did an excellent job planning our vacation. Every detail was taken care of, down to airport transfers with English-speaking drivers.

The excursions we were on were in quality locations, with meaning and historical significance. We had a little bit of downtime to explore Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro.

Overall, we are really happy visiting Argentina and Brazil, and satisfied that he planned our vacation.
