Luxury Egypt Tours

Zicasso’s travel company did such a great job putting the trip together. I was charged for an extra night at our hotel in Paris, but they are refunding that and the Cairo portion of the trip we had to cancel.

Our Paris tour guide was great and I’d recommend her to anyone. Our Rome tour guides were very good. Hong Kong was fine. Our Tokyo guide was wonderful.

Really, the only hiccup on the trip was our hotel in Hong Kong. The company that picked us up dropped us at one hotel, not the correct one. Thankfully, a couple of their bellhops walked us and all our luggage several blocks to the correct hotel. Our tour guide the next day also went to the wrong hotel, but we only lost about 45 minutes before we figured out the issue. If you use that hotel again, please make sure folks know which hotel is which.

The "Fast and Furious" car experience was OK; however, my grandson was so tired he slept through most of it. The chopstick-making was fun, as was the glass-blowing experience.

The agreed-upon services were provided by Zicasso's travel company. The staff who assisted us were very professional and attentive to every detail and our needs. They resolved several unexpected situations and always offered advice to help us make our decisions. We thoroughly enjoyed every activity, feeling safe and comfortable.

We received excellent support from Zicasso's travel company throughout our journey, with professional drivers and excellent staff personnel making our vacation seem seamless. We would highly recommend them to those who want a truly Egyptian vacation.

I think Zicasso’s travel specialist did a fantastic job and oversaw everything, so we felt comfortable. We had a few incidents that were not pleasant, as in Jordan, with security holding us up going in/out, as we had binoculars that were not in our checked bags. They were really snotty at the border when we were leaving.

We also had a problem in Abu Simbel when our greeter person took us to the site. The guide was late and, once he showed up, we knew he could not go into the monuments. When we came out the first time, he was nowhere to be seen. He showed up 10 minutes later. When we came out of the second monument, again he was nowhere to be seen. Then, before the departure, he disappeared again. When people tell me they will be at a certain location and they are not there, it is disturbing.

Our professional Egyptologists at the museum, pyramids, and on the Nile were all fantastic. The driver in Jordan was always on time and did a good job. The car was small and cramped, but we liked the driver and he did a good job. All went smoothly in Jordan.

We got out the day before the bombing and were in Cairo that morning, so we did not have to deal with the war. It did make us nervous being in Egypt and we left a day early, but got home safely.

Overall, the sites were amazing and it flowed pretty smoothly, but would not have done so without the travel specialist checking in with us each day, and especially after the bombing started. I have used Zicasso three or four times and will continue to do so.

Every step was carefully curated. We felt safe and well cared for by our Zicasso travel specialist's team of expert guides. The itinerary was perfect.

Zicasso’s travel specialist did an amazing job working with us to put together an outstanding agenda and making all the arrangements on her end. The team delivered an absolutely outstanding experience in Egypt! Having one Egyptologist for the entire time was extremely helpful, and he was outstanding, making our time in Egypt extremely memorable.
