like ours!  He is an expert on birds and it was so refreshing to get deep insight on the natural wonders of Costa Rica while driving to various places.  He was also so punctual and gave us rare opportunity to visit and eat at the best local non-tourist restaurants. 

trip to Costa Rica.  Our travel specialist was responsive to our requests and attentive to our preferences regarding types of activities.  She generated ideas for hotels and excursions that were less touristy than typical and with companies that offered excellent service.

spoke on the phone and emailed many times to plan our amazing trip to Costa Rica. Our travel planners, the owners, hand crafted our experience. We stayed in wonderful hotels, they had bilingual drivers pick us up and all of the tour operators met us on time. It was a seamless experience! The team personalizes our experience by meeting us at the airport, alerting all tour operators that we were gluten free and they even alerted the hotel about our son’s bday (and called to wish him a happy day). We highly recommend the travel team. Our family adventure to Costa Rica was incredible. We are so glad we chose to go with them! 

We were two families traveling together with a total of 4 adults and 5 children. Our travel specialists took care of everything!  After working together to plan our trip, we did not have to do anything!  Everything was taken care of for us!  We had several adventures including horseback riding, a volcano hike, zip lining, a night hike, and a chocolate and coffee tour. Our travel specialist suggested that we see two very different parts of Costa Rica, so we stayed several days near the Arenal volcano in La Fortuna, and then moved to Manuel Antonio to see the beautiful beaches. The hotels were both incredible with large rooms and breathtaking views.  All tours were pre-arranged and the tour guides were all punctual, knowledgeable, engaging and entertaining.  Transportation was arranged for everything we did, and our drivers were excellent - stopping along the way to point out animals, etc.  We especially loved our driver, who was witty, knowledgeable, fun, and kind-hearted.  When we first arrived in Costa Rica, our travel specialist met us at the airport and welcomed us to the country.  He made sure to tell us that he would be available to us 24/7 and then spoke to us during the trip to make sure everything was up to our expectations.  Of course, we didn’t need him as everything was excellent.  I would highly recommend this travel company to anyone planning to visit Costa Rica!  We had a wonderful time and would definitely use them again!

They were excellent at getting back to me in a timely manner and thoroughly listened to what I wanted. The trip ran smoothly while we were there and everything went as planned. If I ever go to Costa Rica again I would definitely use this company.

take him on a trip combining volunteerism and fun. He chose Costa Rica and the Zicasso referred agency did a wonderful job of combining all the elements we wanted into a fabulous experience for all of us. From the moment we landed in country until we departed 17 days later, we were well cared for.

provided peace-of-mind while my husband and I introduced our 7- and 10-year old kids to the wonders of Costa Rica. Initially proposing a balanced itinerary with 1-2 activities scheduled each day, our travel specialists worked with me to fine tune each day so that my kids would experience nature, adventure, and relaxation. They used their lifelong knowledge of Costa Rica to provide useful information as I crafted our vacation, considering travel time between locations as well as value that we would experience. For example, when I inquired about an excursion to Poas volcano, I learned that the cloudiness typical of the area might obscure views of the crater so our time and effort would likely be wasted.Throughout our vacation, we felt cared for. Our travel specialists contacted us a few times to check in but for the most part, left us on our own to freely explore their country. However, they were responsive whenever we had questions. Their driver, was fluent in English and had a remarkable ability to spot wildlife on every road that we traveled. His deep knowledge of Costa Rica provided a valuable resource so even while transferring between locations, we continued to learn. A final note about learning: the travel company works with extremely knowledgeable tour agencies, and as an educator, I appreciated that not a moment of our time was wasted. In the end, our family truly experienced the "adventure of a lifetime," as our itinerary was named by the travel company.

trip to Costa Rica, and our travel designer was a great help in deciding where to go and what to do while we were there.  The transportation, hotels and excursions were all first-rate and exactly as they were presented.  We had one small logistical issue towards the end of the trip and it was dealt with immediately.  I highly recommend this travel team and hope to plan another trip soon!

e-mails and questions both before and during our trip. They were always courteous and professional. We liked the level of customer service they provided. They had great suggestions for activities on our trip, and they were very flexible if we needed to change those activities based on our interests (such as private tours). We liked the personal touches they provided, such as calling us to welcome us to Costa Rica and having a special birthday cake made to celebrate my husband's birthday. 

 Both hotels we stayed in were very nice and the people in Costa Rica were friendly and helpful. The staff at this travel company were dependable and kind. 

All travel arrangements were made through our travel company.  Costa Rica is a beautiful country with so many adventurous and nature excursions.  Working with them was wonderful.  They communicated well and did exactly what they said.  All staff was very courteous and punctual.  The excursion companies they dealt with provided an excellent experience.  They were helpful and mindful to our needs.  We travel with another couple and each year one person is responsible for the planning and booking of the trip.  My husband and friends were so impressed with the travel company and how effortless they made it for me.  I was able to completely enjoy my time and not be worried about the details.  Throughout my trip I made contact with them and they were always quick to respond to my questions. They also reached out several times to make sure everything was going well.  I felt so well taken care of.  The accommodations were over the top fantastic.  I reached out concerned at one point that we were enjoying where we were and concerned that the next hotel would not be as enjoyable.  This was not the case.  It just got better and better!  This vacation was wonderful.  I truly fell in love with Costa Rica.  Pura Vida!
