Our Latin America Travel Specialists

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+++

My wife and I just got back from our first trip to Colombia and had a great experience. The team made it extra-special. Zicasso’s travel specialist came up with a great itinerary and it was a true cultural experience.
All the guides were friendly, spoke good English, and were always on time. We learned about filigree, silleteras, saw how they make hats and other items out of palm leaves, tried many great Colombian dishes, and learned about the culture in Colombia.
We had a really special time getting to visit a musical school for kids from very poor neighborhoods and seeing the big positive impact it has made on their lives.
The travel specialist and the team delivered on all promises, and we highly recommend their services to anyone considering a trip to Colombia.
For anyone who has concerns about safety and the reputation Colombia has had regarding the drug trade, I want to say that we felt safe 100% of the time. Everyone was very friendly toward tourists and if you are looking for a cultural experience, this is worth the trip.

We enjoyed the trip and the thoughtful curating of the itinerary by Zicasso's travel specialist.

I couldn't recommend our travel company more. We booked them through Zicasso after receiving a very detailed and budget-conscious itinerary for our family trip to Brazil. We decided to visit Iguazú Falls, followed by Rio de Janeiro, over New Year's. Everything was great from start to finish, including trip planning, adjusting the itinerary based on our requests and holiday constraints, travel planning, and the trip itself.
We had a dedicated guide in each of our destination cities and this is what made the trip great. Our guide in Iguazú Falls and our guide in Rio were both fantastic. Each of them was courteous, friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and very well connected with the staff at the various places we visited. Not infrequently, we would be whisked to the front of long lines because our guides had a connection. Both of them were extremely flexible, like letting us enjoy a long lunch and starting our tour an hour late one day. They catered to our needs throughout our trip.
It was a fantastic and memorable trip!

Zicasso’s travel specialist and our guide took great care of us. We were two friends traveling through Chile and everything was managed with professionalism and thoughtful consideration. We had great hotels, great excursions, and on-time transfers booked. Everything ran smoothly, and when we had some travel delays, everything was taken care of for us. I would highly recommend this travel company and we had a fabulous trip to Chile.

Every driver was on time and every hotel and event booking was as scheduled. We saw so many wonderful sites and enjoyed the excellent food and culture of Costa Rica. We will definitely return.
Zicasso’s travel company did a great job showcasing the highlights of Costa Rica on this three-week trip. They also did what no other company would do, and that is, accommodating the fact that we had a private residence to stay in between adventures!

We received excellent service. Zicasso’s travel specialist was exceptional and took care of all flight check-ins. She contacted us daily in the afternoon to touch base. We will definitely use their services again. It was a pleasure and the travel company made this a 9.5-out-of-10 experience!

Our trip to Colombia was our third travel experience arranged via Zicasso. As was the case with our previous two trips, this one was managed nearly flawlessly from start to finish with the kind of attentive customer care we have become accustomed to with Zicasso and their partners.
The agent from our travel company went above and beyond in assisting us with all our planning, providing insights and recommendations only someone who has experienced Colombia fully can provide. She was very patient in helping us make adjustments to arrive at the perfect itinerary and then remaining in constant contact to ensure every minor detail was handled perfectly throughout our journey.
Our drivers and tour guides made sure we were greeted and escorted through each destination, from Medellín to Bogotá to Cartagena and our final destination on Isla Barú. While many friends expressed concern over our safety in Colombia, I can say we did not feel unsafe for a moment. The Colombia of today is no longer one riddled with crime and drugs, but rich in culture and charm.
We greatly enjoyed the thriving art scene of Comuna 13 and the nightlife of Medellín. Our hotel made us feel like we were in the middle of the rainforest, while just steps away from the bustle and excitement of the Poblado district. Our visit to a wonderful coffee plantation provided a full education on every step of the coffee-making process, from the berries on the tree all the way to a delicious cup, delivering a new appreciation for black coffee. I may only drink Colombian from now on.
Bogotá proved to be a modern city with an incredible food scene. Our agent arranged an amazing gastronomical tour for us one evening that catered to our dietary needs. We attended an amazing wedding on top of an old portside fort in Cartagena and enjoyed the charm of the old walled city before relaxing on a pristine beach off the coast, then heading home to tell everyone to hurry down to see all Colombia has to offer.
I can only say, Zicasso is the only way to plan your travel, whether alone or with a small group. For those considering Colombia, our in-country travel company carries my strongest endorsement.
