East Africa Travel Guide

This was a bucket-list trip and Zicasso's travel company put together an incredible itinerary for us! Everything was seamless and we just enjoyed ourselves start to finish!!

Everything was outstanding, from the planning process through our departure from Tanzania.

Zicasso’s travel specialist put together an amazing African itinerary for my wife and me. Our time spent in Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Kenya truly was magical.

We encountered a variety of camp settings and terrain, from water-focused to extremely arid, yet all of the camps offered an extremely immersive bush experience balanced with rather plush accommodations, great food and drink, and incredibly attentive service. Our brief stay near and visit to Victoria Falls, while focused on the spectacular aspects of that wonder of the world, and not wildlife, was mesmerizing. We were living in the present moment every second of our time at these venues!

Our entry into and departure from Africa was a bit bumpy (in no small part due to our decision to scrap the planned travel through Qatar as a result of the ongoing US-Iran war), but our travel specialist worked to alleviate each of the few issues that did occur. We greatly appreciated her willingness to ensure that a few missteps did not diminish our incredible in-country adventures and memories. In our experience, no extended travel to a foreign land is ever hiccup-free.

An Absolutely Exceptional African Adventure!

Zicasso's travel specialist was spectacular! From the moment we landed in Africa to the moment we departed for home, every detail of our three-week trip was flawlessly organized. Our travel specialist listened to our bucket-list wishes, thoroughly explained our options, and created an unforgettable itinerary. We were met and escorted at every transition, so we never had to worry about logistics and could simply immerse ourselves in the once-in-a-lifetime experiences.

The travel app was another standout, providing a daily itinerary and invaluable guidance on packing and tipping. Everything was spot-on and we never had a single issue throughout our trip.

As seasoned travelers, we recognize a reliable and trustworthy travel partner when we find one. We’re already planning our return to Africa and our travel specialist will absolutely be planning that trip, too. When you experience the best, there’s no need to look elsewhere! We couldn’t recommend our travel specialist and the travel company more highly.

Zicasso's travel specialist helped us plan an amazing trip of a lifetime. The accommodations, travel arrangements, and tour guides for our 18-day Rwanda gorilla trek and Tanzania safaris were all superb! A truly memorable and personalized experience.

We appreciated having private tour guides throughout the trip, allowing us to set the pace (e.g., spending extra time watching cheetahs and lions stalk their prey) and making sure we saw what we wanted to see. Throughout the entire trip, the staff at all the places we stayed truly made us feel special and did the extra things to make our trip memorable.

The travel/trip information shared with us was very detailed. The app used was extremely helpful. Our travel specialist was very responsive to our questions throughout the planning process and during the trip. Would highly recommend the travel company!

Zicasso's travel specialist was amazing! And so was the trip.
