Our trip was amazing! Everything was organized extremely well by Zicasso's travel company. Our guide was very knowledgeable. We travel a lot and this was our best trip so far. I already recommended them to a couple of my friends who are planning to visit Peru. Thanks a lot for making this a memorable trip for our family!

Zicasso's travel specialist did an excellent job with our trip to Peru! She was very flexible in the planning stages and worked with us to get the exact itinerary that suited our family.
While in Peru, everything ran very smoothly, from transportation to our hotels to activities. Everything was very organized. Our guide was with us throughout our time in Cusco and the Sacred Valley, and was very knowledgeable; just superb!
We had a medical issue midway through the trip and she worked to help us with this, as well as rearranging some of our itinerary to accommodate it. Overall, we highly recommend our specialist and her team! We had a wonderful time in Peru!

Our trip to Peru was just amazing, one of a kind, and it was made so wonderful thanks to Zicasso's travel company. Every little detail was planned so we could just enjoy the trip to the fullest and not have to worry about any of the logistics.
What made it even more special is that while on the trip, we had to make several adjustments to change the schedule and our travel agent was able to accommodate all our requests, even the last-minute ones. Not knowing much about the country, it really helped to have a travel agent work closely with us so we didn't have to worry about anything. I don't think our trip would have gone as smoothly had it not been for the care we had from our travel agent, and for that I am super-grateful.

Zicasso's travel partner provided an excellent itinerary. The hotels and the meals were great. Our travel specialist was very responsive and knowledgeable. He understood our main concern was traveling with an 80-year-old woman fulfilling her bucket-list dream of visiting Machu Picchu, which she had seen as a little girl in National Geographic. The travel partner contracted with a local tour company in Peru that did a phenomenal job.

Great trip. All tour guides were attentive and helpful. Our guide was with us for five days, including the train to Machu Picchu and the Inca Trail hike. All transfers to and from the airports were accommodated professionally. The only hiccup I can report is the hotels in Cusco and Lima on the way back. I think the four-star and three-star ratings for those were way overrated.
Overall: great trip!!!

Our travel specialist put together a bucket-list trip for us. The itinerary was perfect and the accommodations were unique and first-rate. We never would have found them on our own. We are an active group and they kept us busy with unique hikes and tours. We especially enjoyed the Six Senses Tour with our guide in Quito. We loved the attention to detail, including the airport pickups and drop-offs. We wouldn't have made it out of Quito to the Galápagos without their help. This is the fifth time we have used Zicasso for a major trip and we have never been disappointed.
