Beach & Island Vacations & Tours

We had the trip of a lifetime to Costa Rica! Everything worked incredibly well. The tours and transportation were like clockwork, and working with Zicasso’s travel planner and her team was easy. We loved our time in Costa Rica and my family (husband, two kids ages nine and 11) was very happy with our activities and accommodations overall!

Our trip to Hamilton Island and the Whitsundays with Zicasso was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, our travel planner made the entire process seamless and stress-free. He was extremely helpful and communicative throughout the planning stage. He took the time to understand what we were looking for and tailored the itinerary perfectly to our interests. His recommendations were spot-on, from the beautiful accommodations on Hamilton Island to the amazing boat tours around the Whitsundays. Every detail was handled with care, making it easy for us to relax and enjoy the breathtaking scenery. 

Snorkeling in the Great Barrier Reef and exploring Whitehaven Beach were unforgettable highlights, and it was clear our agent’s expertise ensured we had the best possible experience. We are so grateful for his attention to detail and support. We highly recommend Zicasso and our agent to anyone planning a trip to the Whitsundays!

I'm so glad to have been matched with Zicasso’s travel agency for our two-week Costa Rica trip this past November. Zicasso's travel agent did an outstanding job arranging all of the accommodations, as well as all of the transports. 

When the weather in the cloud forest did not cooperate, an agent called our hotel to say that the night tour had been canceled and arranged for the refund to be applied at the next hotel. 

The drivers were on time, every time, spoke flawless English (better than my Spanish), and were able to point out sites, including animals and birds, as well as give us tips on local cuisine (casados). Each of the tours our agent booked for us was just right, including multilingual guides, with professional scopes, who had deep knowledge of the local flora and fauna. Our tours were either private or in very small groups, which really maximized our chances of seeing wildlife. 

Each one of the five hotels we stayed at was top-notch in location, quality of room, view, and on-site restaurants.

Zicasso's travel company sent us on an epic trip to Costa Rica. The whole trip was so easy for us because we only had to show up at the time noted on the itinerary. The travel specialists were incredibly helpful during the planning and packing process, quickly answering any questions we had and giving advice.

The trip itself was incredible and I don’t think we can choose a favorite when it comes to the activities we did. We saw so much incredible flora and fauna while learning about the areas we visited. Ziplining, waterfall rappelling, and tubing were so much fun. We were part of a group of several families traveling together and this trip would not have been nearly as awesome without this travel company. I know it was challenging at times, but we are so thankful. We stayed in some beautiful and unique resorts. We appreciate that this company was available during our trip for any needs that popped up. This was such an unforgettable trip. Thank you.

Mike and I wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for our unforgettable two-week adventure in Costa Rica. The trip was amazing and exceeded our expectations. We were spoiled by the private transfers and private tours. All of the tour guides were professional and very informative. We enjoyed all of the selected hotels, with the lodge in Monteverde being our favorite. The hotel had a great happy hour with a variety of drinks and was within walking distance of Santa Elena. We liked having daily breakfast included and loved all of the fresh fruits, especially the cantaloupe and watermelon.

We appreciated your attention to detail and expert recommendations for the variety of tours and guides. We enjoyed the float trips and had a wonderful tour of the mangroves in Manuel Antonio. Our time in Monteverde included a rainy day hiking the hanging bridges and ziplining for the first time. I am glad we added the vanilla tour to our agenda in Manuel Antonio.   

Thank you so much for making this trip special and stress-free. Please let your staff know that we appreciated all of their hard work. The WhatsApp gateway was great once we figured out how to use the app. It allowed us to communicate with the team to update us on schedule changes or other information. We will definitely recommend your services to our family and friends, and ook forward to visiting Costa Rica in the future.

The trip was exceptionally and thoughtfully planned. Zicasso's travel specialist took the time to understand the general vision through questions, suggested ideas, and consideration of feedback before presenting and refining the trip. The travel company continued to provide updates and check-ins before and during the trip as well, confirming scheduling as needed. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with the travel company.
