Galapagos & Ecuador Travel Agents and Reviews

We had an absolutely amazing trip. Our Zicasso travel agent made our vacation very special. She put together a trip that took us to all of Ecuador's regions, with fantastic guides who went above and beyond.

The lodge in the Amazon was such an adventure and the cruise in the Galapagos gave a perfect glimpse into the islands.

Our agent’s attention to detail made our entire trip so easy and stress-free. All we had to do was enjoy our adventure. From Cotopaxi to diving Kicker Rock with hammerhead sharks to seeing endless wildlife in the Amazon, our agent and her company created the perfect trip, and I can’t recommend them enough.

Our trip to Peru was absolutely magical! Zicasso’s travel company planned a top-notch trip with wonderful accommodations, extraordinary experiences, and delicious food. Our guides were exceptional; very knowledgeable and warm, just like all the Peruvian people we encountered.

We stayed in five-star hotels that were comfortable and full of character. All-around first-class accommodations all the way! Our domestic flights were great and the drivers and guides tasked with making sure we arrived at our destinations safely were wonderful.

Our trip to Peru, planned by our Zicasso travel agent, was an absolute five-star delight from start to finish. The itinerary she crafted for us over two weeks allowed us to see all of the top attractions, like Machu Picchu, the Sacred Valley, and the vibrant markets of Cusco. But what really set this trip apart was the attention to detail and local expertise provided by the travel agency and their on-the-ground team.

The pre-trip information on the best restaurants, local cuisine, and cultural traditions was invaluable in helping us make the most of our time. And the guides they connected us with were not only extremely knowledgeable, but truly passionate about sharing the history and significance of the places we visited.

Beyond just hitting the highlights, our agent also made sure we had the opportunity to discover some lesser-known gems, like a family-run weavery in the Andes, where we got to learn about traditional textile techniques, and a quiet, off-the-beaten-path town where we immersed ourselves in local life. These were the kinds of authentic experiences that made our trip so memorable.

I can't recommend this travel agency highly enough. Their expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to providing a rich, well-rounded (yet affordable!) travel experience were unmatched. We returned home with incredible memories and a deep appreciation for the culture and beauty of Peru.

Zicasso’s travel company organized a fabulous trip for us to Ecuador in February 2024. We visited the Galapagos, the Amazon, and the cloud forest, three biodiverse regions with incredible opportunities for outdoor adventures.

The trip exceeded our expectations in every way. The guides were interesting and knowledgeable; the accommodations were comfortable and suited to each of the locations; the food was delicious; and the activities varied, with opportunities for seeing sea life, birds, flora, and fauna, in addition to understanding the history of the culture and the Ecuadorian people. Despite our concerns about civil unrest in the country, there was no evidence of this at any point in our travels. We felt completely safe and well cared for by our guides and driver.

We found our guides to be very accommodating to our requests and needs, adjusting our agenda easily and without any reservation. Their flexibility, warmth, enthusiasm, and care made our trip memorable and special.

We were extremely pleased with the service provided by our travel agency, which made our first trip to Ecuador smooth, easy, and memorable. We could not have asked more of our guide, who introduced us to the culture, history, food, and architecture of Quito. Her knowledge of the area was encyclopedic.

Our guide in the Amazon Rainforest was a superb naturalist who shared his knowledge freely, leading us to an eye-opening experience in the jungle. The cruise aboard the Galapagos Legend was first-class in every way.

Zicasso’s tour operator also saw to it that we made our transportation connections, which certainly relieved the stress associated with that aspect of traveling in a new country.

The itinerary put together by our travel agent ran the gamut of Ecuador, from the Amazon Rainforest to historic Quito, the Ecuador highlands, and the Galapagos Islands. We could not have been more pleased with the trip, which leaves us with memories for years to come.
