Testimonials From Past Zoom Argentina Vacations
Bryan,
Just want to give a belated thank you for all you did on the recent trip to Argentina. The people, sights, food, and wine were all wonderful. You and the local guides Marcelo and Ciro were knowledgeable about the areas visited which really enhanced the experience for us all.
You’re a special person with a good heart and kind actions.

To this day, the trip to Buenos Aires was by far the best that I've done. I still rave about it to friends and family. I felt so comfortable with everyone on the trip. Everyone was friendly, the food was delicious, and Bryan's wonderful energy made me feel so welcomed. I felt like I was on vacation with long lost friends. For me, Iguacu was absolutely the most beautiful place I have seen so far.

My favorite aspect of the trip was the people in the group, the tour guides, and the relaxed atmosphere of all the organized events. We have traveled with a large gay cruise company and there really is no comparison. The groups are much much larger, and I prefer the smaller group we had in Argentina. I really enjoyed the personal contact with Bryan and all the other people in the group. We really had a great group of people and really enjoyed ourselves.

We enjoyed our trip to Buenos Aires with Zoom Vacations very much. Our trip actually began many months earlier when we first contacted Bryan and Joel. From the first phone call to the follow up message after arrival at home, it could not have been a smoother and more pleasant experience. They are knowledgeable and capable of arranging all travel needs in a professional manner. The trip itself was well arranged, beautiful hotel, fun excursions, friendly co-travelers, and suggested activities were well planned. We highly recommend Zoom vacations and will travel with you guys again. All the best,

Zoom made this into a true vacation for me. Due to my interest in travel, I typically play "cruise director" when planning vacations with my friends. It was so nice to have Zoom make all the hotel and sightseeing reservations etc. This took away a layer of stress for me. Also, the little extras in our rooms each night made me feel like I was personally being cared for. I am impressed that Zoom can do all this in a non-English speaking country 5000 miles away. Zoom also provided recommendations on local gay culture for the area. Kudos!
