Our trip experience was A+++ from the planning stage through the actual trip. We enjoyed a curated trip and it was fabulous.
Our assigned driver, our driver, was a gem—courteous, thoughtful, professional, and an excellent ambassador for Morocco.
Zicasso’s travel specialist picked only four- to five-star hotels and riads for us. We enjoyed the quality of our accommodations and the professionalism of our various guides we were assigned for our visits to Casablanca, Rabat, Chefchaouen, Fes, the Sahara Desert, our desert camp, Aït Benhaddou kasbah, a night food tour in Marrakech, and Marrakech’s medina.
We feel like we experienced Morocco—the tagines, the call to prayer, the desert, the camel ride, the beautiful people, the lush and layered history, culture, and architecture, and the emergence of a new and modern Morocco. It was more than we expected, which makes it so special to us. We highly recommend the travel specialist!!!

When we originally planned to fulfill a lifelong dream and see Egypt, we went through a number of possibilities. We had never used a company like Zicasso, but in looking at reviews and wanting to make this an unforgettable experience, we elected to give them a try. They connected us with our tour operator and they worked with us to plan a spectacular 14-day journey. Simply put, our experience with both has exceeded our expectations—it was truly an unforgettable experience.
From the seamless service of being picked up at the airport and driven to our hotel, to the personalized service with the tour guides and Egyptologists, to the luxurious Nile cruise, to the splendid final three nights at our resort on the Red Sea, it was an unbelievably wonderful experience.
While it seemed expensive at first glance, in retrospect, it was worth every dollar spent and then some. I cannot be effusive enough in my praise for Zicasso and the tour operator. I highly recommend them to anyone who has dreamed of visiting Egypt and learning about the magnificent early history of this land. Five-plus stars; we would do it again in an instant. A truly once-in-a-lifetime experience. We are already on the cusp of planning our next trip—a safari—with this amazing company.
