Germany, France, United Kingdom Tour Review: Paris, London, 1 Month

Thank you for all of the help planning and then supporting us throughout our trip. The itinerary was planned to visit several villages and cities in Germany, then Paris and London. The transfers, train tickets, and hotel rooms all worked out perfectly. Even more notable was a death in my family, which caused us to delay and change the trip somewhat. Zicasso’s travel company was extremely supportive and again helped plan the trip with a few changes. I highly recommend the travel company.

Germany, Austria Trip Review: Mountains, Lakes, Concerts, History, Culture, 10 Nights

The service provided by our guide, Zicasso’s travel specialist, was outstanding. He was in constant contact as we planned for the trip and suggested an excellent itinerary. We were very happy with how he prepared us for the trip.

The trip itself exceeded our expectations. The travel specialist and his team were always available and intently listened to our requests along the way, adjusting our trip accordingly.

The accommodations were very much in line with our expectations and in locations that were perfect for the sites we visited.

We quickly bonded with the travel specialists. Again, they made high-quality suggestions and reservations whenever we needed them. It felt like we were traveling with friends when they accompanied us during the trip.

Finally, it was just nice to be treated so respectfully when we were in countries where we had never traveled. We learned a great deal about the histories of Germany and Austria, and shared insights about our home country with them as well. That truly made the trip.
