Where to Go by Season Travel Guide

This was our first time using a travel agency for a trip like this and Zicasso’s travel company completely exceeded our expectations. Traveling internationally with pre-teen children can be stressful, but from the very beginning, this travel company removed every bit of that anxiety. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, clearly communicated, and flawlessly executed.

From airport transfers to hotels, tours, trains, guides, and daily logistics, everything worked seamlessly. We never once felt lost, rushed, or unsure of what was next. Instead of worrying about schedules or navigating a foreign country, we were able to fully focus on our family and enjoy the experience. That peace of mind alone was invaluable.

What really stood out was how well the trip was tailored to our family. The pacing was perfect, the experiences were engaging for adults and kids, and every guide we worked with was knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. It truly felt like a curated, high-quality experience rather than a generic itinerary.

We came home with incredible memories and zero travel stress, something I didn’t think was possible with kids that age. This travel company was phenomenal and we would absolutely use them again, and recommend them without hesitation to anyone considering international travel, especially families.

This is the third trip we’ve booked through Zicasso and we’ve already booked our fourth for 2026.

Zicasso’s travel company did a great job.

We really enjoyed our trip to Argentina and Chile. All the hotels were great and the transfers went smoothly. We enjoyed the excursions. Some we liked better than others, but that’s to be expected. We really enjoyed our time in El Chalten, El Calafate, and Torres del Paine. The scenery was spectacular. Patagonia should be on everybody’s bucket list if they enjoy hiking and the great outdoors.

Thanks again to this travel company for setting everything up. We also really appreciated the service they provided during the trip. When we had a question or needed to move a couple of things around because of weather, they were easy to get a hold of and very helpful. That’s important, as there’s always something that comes up.

I would definitely recommend this travel company to anyone wanting a private, customized trip to Argentina and Chile. 

Zicasso’s travel company did a great job with our tours. Our dedicated driver added so much to our vacation. The house and views were fantastic. Wildlife was abundant.

The only thing I would change would be the sailing trip, as three of us got seasick. This kind of boat was awful for those of us who suffer that fate—a catamaran, which I have been on many times without getting seasick, would have been a better choice for us. We saw pilot whales!

Zicasso’s travel agent planned the most wonderful trip to celebrate my husband’s retirement. We began in Panama City, staying at an amazing hotel in the heart of it all. He arranged a fascinating backstage tour of the Panama Canal, where we watched massive cruise ships pass through the final lock. A walking gastronomy tour led us to hidden culinary gems throughout the city, with a local café being my favorite stop. He also provided an excellent list of restaurants, conveniently located near our hotel.

Our next destination was Boquete, where we stayed at our resort in Boquete. The massages there were exceptional—be sure to book the volcanic clay massage; it’s unforgettable. We enjoyed a Geisha coffee tour (the most expensive coffee in the world), a rum-tasting adventure, and a hike along the Pipeline Trail. Some sections were easy, while others offered just the right amount of challenge.

Our final stop was, without question, the highlight of the trip: Isla Palenque. It felt like stepping into Jurassic Park—minus the dinosaurs. The views were absolutely stunning in every direction. The food was beyond amazing and the tours were educational and exciting.

Our travel agent truly makes dreams come true.

Our Zicasso agent and the hotel were excellent. The itinerary was perfect for our limited time and our local guide was awesome.

It was great! The guides were terrific, smart, and helpful. They listened to us and accommodated changes and requests when they were made.
