Reviews of Zicasso's Japan Tours
Based on 557 verified traveler reviews.
Zicasso’s travel specialist helped us put together a great family trip to Japan. He created the perfect itinerary based on our likes/dislikes and was easy to communicate with. We enjoyed our tour with our guide in Tokyo and were especially delighted that the travel specialist personally guided us around Kyoto. Both he and our guide showed us parts of these cities off the beaten track. The travel specialist is incredibly knowledgeable about Japan and his passion for the culture is contagious.

Japan was a dream. The trip was so well planned and everything worked better than we had imagined. There were zero problems.
Zicasso’s travel specialist was also the best travel agent ever! The best communicator—all questions were answered immediately. I had an extremely complicated itinerary; she made it much better. She suggested the coolest things/ways in culture, art, and what to do.
My wife and I did not expect such a smooth and easy trip in a land where we only knew about eight words. As quoted from many YouTube videos, “Highly recommended” (add “very” to that).

Zicasso’s travel specialist and her team get our very highest rating. Ten out of 10 isn’t high enough! From helping us navigate a medical emergency in Japan to making on-the-fly changes to our plans, to hotel and activity selections, attention to detail, and prompt communication, the tour operator was the best. We would absolutely use them again and plan to recommend them to friends and family.

Zicasso’s travel partner worked with me to meet the needs of my trip. They were very flexible with changes that I wanted to make to the initial itinerary, and then very flexible when I needed to make changes to train tickets one week out from leaving. The hotels were beautiful and the private guides that were picked out were very knowledgeable and friendly.
