Patagonia Travel Guide

From the wide open space to the untamed jagged mountains, the secluded coastline to glacial lakes, Patagonia remains a frontier both sparse and stunning. Dusty roads can lead to luxury oases, wildlife can change from grazing guanacos to boisterous penguins to passing whales. With access to luxury eco-resorts and hiking trails winding through the impressive scenery, the ambiance can feel like stepping into solitude while venturing out onto the steppe. Find more information on when to visit, where to go, and more with our Patagonia Travel Guide.

New Zealand Travel Review: Franz Josef, Fox Glacier, Milford Sound, Helicopter Ride, Quad Biking, 2 Weeks

We appreciate all that Zicasso’s travel company did to make our trip to New Zealand such a fantastic experience. Everything was planned out perfectly and we enjoyed every minute of it. The accommodations in each town were wonderful and the excursions, tours, and tastings were all delightful. Having our own drivers also allowed us to really enjoy the scenery and to not have to worry about getting from point A to point B across the South and North islands. The travel company was there for us from the very beginning as we started planning the trip, until we returned home, and was very responsive and helpful every time we reached out to them.

All the guides were so enjoyable and really helped make the experience so memorable for our grandsons. We stayed at very exceptional places and there was no worry about transportation or any safety issues!

This was one amazing trip. This was very well put together. Zicasso’s travel company was very responsive to all our needs when we planned our trip together.

Guides at each of the locations were amazing, with wonderful explanations. We didn't have one bad experience during the whole trip. This was a trip that was a celebration of a milestone birthday, so I am extremely happy that this was planned so well. We strongly recommend this company and will choose to go with them for our future trips!
