Ireland Vacation Review: Golf, 10 Nights

My wife and I chose Zicasso because we liked their business model for luxury travel. We interviewed two travel specialist companies recommended by Zicasso for a trip to Ireland. We chose our travel company based on their attention to detail after we explained what were our goals for the trip. After committing to their program, it became seamless in arranging everything from hotels, tours, dinner, and even a round of golf. The outcome from the trip was beyond great.

The travel company was also in contact with us during the trip to make certain everything was happening as planned. We would highly recommend Zicasso and this travel company for customized luxury travel.
