My 23-year-old daughter and I just returned from an amazing trip planned and coordinated by Zicasso’s tour operator. Our travel specialist was extremely organized and they and their wife anticipated everything we needed to know before and during our trip. Pick-up, tours, travel, and accommodations were all seamless.

The guides were all very attentive and our drivers were wonderful. Our primary driver was one of the kindest and genuine people I have ever met. He made a special point to spend an afternoon with us before they left on a personal vacation.

It couldn't have been any easier for us. I have zero negative feedback. I can't imagine a better trip. Thank you, to the the tour operator for the trip of a lifetime.

The trip was excellent. We really had a great time! The "ground staff" (drivers, airport greeters, etc.) were terrific. We had four guides.

Our hotel in Abu Simbel and our hotel in Cairo were great.

The cruise ship, the ship in Egypt, was wonderful. The food could have been better, but the entertainment, cleanliness, and staff were all first-rate.

The lady who led the food tour was wonderful. Her English was very good and she was very personable.

Our guide at Abu Simbel was terrific and knowledgeable, and able to find shade on a hot day.

Our guide in Cairo was very knowledgeable, although we struggled to understand everything he said. (Although his English was much better than our Arabic.) As we went to many of the great sites in Egypt, I wanted to buy souvenirs, but I wasn't able to get near the shops. I have heard that souvenir shop owners will, at times, try to rip off tourists, but I don't know if that was the only reason he wouldn't let us near one.

Our fourth guide in Luxor was also very good, personable, and intelligent. However, it was hot and we could have used a break in the shade. He was a lot younger and more fit than we were and didn't seem to notice we were struggling.

Thank you for putting this trip of a lifetime together for us. Ron is taking his grandson to Rome and is using Zicasso.

Zicasso’s tour operator and our guide were incredible. The trip could not have been more perfect!

We had extremely high expectations coming into this trip and this travel company exceeded them tenfold! We had a packed itinerary, but how it was planned never made it feel over the top. We saw everything we wanted to see, the movement throughout the country was seamless, and everyone we interacted with was incredible!

Our guide was single-handedly the best I have ever had on any tour ever in the world. Not hyperbole. She was beyond knowledgeable, but her adaptability to our group needs and desires to pivot on the fly just added a level of white-glove service that deserves seven stars. If you're booking with the tour operator (which you should), you'll be in the most amazing hands with her!
