Our Nature & Wildlife Travel Specialists

Friendly people and a beautiful country. We really enjoyed seeing so many different places.

Zicasso’s travel specialist was a delight to deal with. From the first contact to the last, she was responsive, listened to what we wanted, and smoothed our path completely. I started arranging something like this last year and gave up because it was complicated – transits, arrivals, tours, guides, the whole thing was overwhelming. But not this time. And we really appreciate all her efforts to tailor the trip to our interests and style.
The accommodation was almost over the top, but much enjoyed. We toured two Mayan ruin sites, Tikal and Caracol, and the contrast was just what we were curious about. They are very different, but both gave us an overview of Mayan history. Our guides and drivers were fantastic. We did bird watching, a cooking class, and had great food at our lodge. We then transferred to Ambergris Caye and she included everything from a golf cart to fishing and diving. Wherever we went, people were friendly, and helpful.
Before we went, we were a little concerned about mosquitoes in the tropics and we came prepared, but I think we saw two the entire trip. In short, we loved Belize.
As a further recommendation, my husband was thoroughly impressed with the fishing charter company. The guide was a true expert, showing him how to catch an unfamiliar species and taking him to just the right spots. The dive company was similarly professional and a pleasure to work with.
The only thing I might have changed was where we were on Ambergris Caye. Sargassum is a real problem in the Caribbean and has been for a few years. Our lodge on Ambergris Caye, though lovely accommodation, was on the windward side of the island and so had a blanket of rotting weed on the shore. There is little the resort can do about this, but staying on the leeward shore would minimize this problem.

Zicasso's travel specialist helped set up the kind of trip we were looking for. Our travel specialist was great at listening to us and her knowledge of the area was amazing. We will definitely want her to help us with our next trip to Africa. Thank you, Zicasso, for providing us with the connection.

Zicasso's travel specialist was such a pleasure to work with! She made my sister’s 40th birthday trip to the Galápagos seamless and hassle-free. All the guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and on time. Communication with her was prompt and thorough, and she even threw in little surprises for my sister. She paired us with another team member in the Galápagos, who surprised us with the most incredible beach picnic!
I highly recommend using this travel company for your next South American trip and look forward to planning with them again!

This was a wonderful trip. Zicasso's travel specialist did an amazing job selecting the right places to visit and stay. He went above and beyond with advice, cost-saving tips, and setting up everything so the trip was as hassle-free as possible.

It was the best trip in my lifetime and I've spent my entire adult life travelling the planet for work and pleasure. Outstanding support by Zicasso’s travel specialist, from presenting various options during the trip-planning stages to finalizing all details before we left. We couldn't be more pleased with the support and knowledge they shared throughout the process. Will definitely be going back to the travel specialists if we plan a second safari.

Overall, it was an amazing trip. Zicasso's travel company really took the time to get to know us and tailored the itinerary to what we enjoy. They suggested experiences we never would have found on our own and many of those ended up being highlights of our honeymoon. Everything was so well organized that we barely had to lift a finger, which made the entire trip feel relaxing and seamless. We truly appreciated all of the planning and support, and would absolutely travel with them again.

We consulted with multiple travel agents. Zicasso’s travel specialist was the only one who listened to what we wanted and what our budget was. She built an outstanding itinerary, finding cool lodging we would not have found otherwise, recommending and booking tours that were varied and kept us exploring, and creating a trip that was truly customized to our family.
