Reviews of Zicasso's Middle East & North Africa Tours and Vacations
Based on 1196 verified traveler reviews.
Zicasso’s travel specialist more than lived up to the many favorable reviews the company has earned. He was receptive and responsive to my requests and used the considerable input I offered to create an itinerary that translated my goals into an itinerary that was flawlessly executed. The drivers and guides assigned all were excellent, and the pampering we received from our arrival to our departure made all of our travel comfortable and seamless.
We were treated to some VIP extras that elevated our experiences and when we encountered a problem onboard the river cruise part of our trip, he and his staff were able to address them on short notice and on a weekend. It is perhaps conventional to tell a customer one is available 24/7, but that truly was the case with the travel company. When circumstances warranted altering the planned itinerary, it was accomplished deftly. This flexibility was much appreciated and truly helped make our trip even more memorable than initially anticipated.
We have friends who expressed their envy at our trip plans and their desire to visit Egypt. My wife and I certainly will share with them our thoughts and views about the wonderful services the travel company provides.

Zicasso’s travel company was wonderful. The itinerary was great, but required more time in the car than would be ideal. The accommodations they chose were excellent and the restaurants that were included, as well as those suggested, were terrific.

Zicasso, thank you so much for having our agent put together this 10++++ trip for us. He beautifully put together the custom trip of a lifetime. We will be eternally grateful to him.
Our hotels and sweet riads were just gorgeous. Our guides in each city were very fun and very helpful. And our very favorite part of the trip was our fantastic driver. Not only is he a very safe and excellent driver, but he is also a very kind, generous, dependable, and thoughtful person. We loved our conversations with him on our drives, learning about the Moroccan customs, history, religions, and his family and friends.
