Zicasso’s travel specialist was attentive, flexible, and easy to work with. He created a unique itinerary that was perfect for us. When little issues came up, he was easily accessible and quickly provided a resolution.

Portugal Tour Review: Horta, Ponta Delgada, 9-Day Trip

Zicasso’s travel specialist exceeded our expectations in every way. We loved our hotels and the tours she booked for us met our needs perfectly. She even flew out to Horta one night to meet us for dinner. What travel agent does that? All emails and texts were answered promptly and she is a very sweet and competent individual.

Portugal Travel Review: Douro Valley, Winery Tour, Local Cuisine, Outstanding Driver, 1 Week

This was our first time using Zicasso, but it will not be our last.

We had one small hotel booking issue that was very quickly resolved. They are immediately responsive. Zicasso offered two choices of tour companies. They both offered very personalized and customizable itineraries. After discussions with both, we chose this tour company.

We traveled in a near-new, seven-passenger Mercedes SUV with our guide/driver. He was professional, personable, and amazingly informative. While not part of our itinerary, when we saw that we were not far from Fatima, we asked if it might be possible to go there. He immediately adjusted our itinerary and added it to our trip. We expect that all of the tour company's guides are equally competent, but our driver set a very high standard.
