Zicasso’s travel specialist planned the perfect trip for four people. He listened to our requests during the planning phase and incorporated everything we wanted, while also suggesting many fantastic activities that made our trip incredible. We were traveling for five weeks and didn't even have one problem. Every guide, hotel, and flight the travel company booked was great. We couldn't be happier with the amazing trip he put together for us and we appreciate his expertise so much! I absolutely recommend the travel company for anyone looking at a trip to this amazing part of the world.

Our trip to the south of France, beautifully curated by Zicasso’s travel company, was truly exceptional. Traveling with my wife and another couple, we experienced the perfect blend of culture, scenery, and relaxation—from the glamour of Nice and Monte Carlo to the rustic charm and vineyards of Provence. Every detail was flawlessly organized: elegant accommodations, knowledgeable private guides, seamless transfers, and thoughtfully designed experiences like the market tour and cooking class in Aix-en-Provence. The itinerary struck an ideal balance between guided exploration and unhurried leisure, allowing us to savor each moment.
The travel company demonstrated deep local expertise and impeccable taste, making this one of the most memorable and effortlessly enjoyable trips we’ve ever taken.

We have used Zicasso twice to find local travel agents in Greece. Two different trips, the first to island hop and the second to concentrate on Crete. Both agencies we ended up working with were excellent! We could not have been more pleased.
