Zicasso Travel Guide - Information on How Zicasso Works

Our experience in Morocco was nothing short of amazing, thanks to the very talented team at Zicasso’s travel company. Our family was absolutely delighted with the level of care and attention to detail for each activity and lodging we enjoyed during our nine days in Marrakech, Essaouira, Agafay Desert, and, finally, our hotel in the Atlas Mountains.

Let's start with our driver, who impressed us daily with the way he navigated our very comfortable van through very challenging streets and roadways. We always felt extremely safe with him behind the wheel and he was so nice with our kids! When our youngest started to feel carsick going through the Atlas Mountains, our driver did everything he could to make the journey smooth—drove extra slow, pulled over whenever we asked for a little break, and made sure the car was always stocked with plastic bags and plenty of water. We highly recommend our driver, along with each tour guide arranged through the travel company.

Our travel specialist, and the owner, has assembled a fantastic group of people who clearly love their work. You will leave the country with an authentic cultural experience, not just a stamp in the passport. If you get an opportunity, do the backstreet food tour with our guide in Marrakech. She was so hospitable and introduced us to some truly tasty food. My children (ages seven and 12) even ate snails in the market with us! So yes, try the snails, along with whatever else she recommends.

Another tip: if you want a desert ATV experience, but do not want to trek to the Sahara, please consider visiting Essaouira and book an ATV tour there. There are some impressive sand dunes near the beach and we had an absolute blast trekking over those. The ATV route is gorgeous; you get the beach and the desert landscape in one go.

If you want an overnight desert experience, without going to the Sahara, then absolutely go to the Agafay Desert. A camel ride at sunset was a magical first for our children.

Finally, I want to say that the travel company goes above and beyond if there are travel hiccups. On our final night in Morocco, we received a text from our airline saying our flight had been cancelled (part of the massive Airbus recall). There were zero flights out of Marrakech and we needed to be back in the States in two days. My husband found a flight from Casablanca the next day and the travel specialist graciously provided transportation for us for the three-and-a-half-hour drive. We felt like booking with the our travel specialist was like having extra travel insurance! Sincere thanks to him and the entire team.

We received excellent customer service from Zicasso's travel company.

Thank you to the team.

I just wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for planning the most incredible birthday trip I’ve ever experienced. From beginning to end, the travel company delivered excellence in every way.

The entire planning process was effortless and easy; your guidance made everything feel seamless. And the moment we touched down in Bali, it was clear that every detail had been thoughtfully handled. Everything was planned to perfection, right down to the smallest touches. The hotel villas, the breathtaking views, the reliable WiFi, the spot-on food recommendations, and each carefully curated excursion created a travel experience I’ll never forget.

The team was truly exceptional. They were always prepared, always prompt, and stayed in constant communication with us. We never felt alone, lost, or unsure of what was next. Their patience, kindness, and warm personalities made us feel like we were traveling with family. The level of care and support they provided elevated this trip to something truly special.

This was, without question, the best birthday trip of my life. I will recommend you and your team to the world! Thank you again for making this experience extraordinary in every way.

With deep gratitude,

Our Argentina trip was really fantastic! It's such a large country that it was hard to narrow down a few places to visit for our short time there. We decided on Buenos Aires, Salta Province, and Iguazú Falls (with a day trip to Uruguay).

Zicasso’s travel company was very easy to work with, being very open and accommodating to our ideas for the itinerary. They managed everything—booking hotels, car service, daily guides and tours, wineries, some restaurants, and our in-country flights. They were great in finding perfect guides to help us navigate where we went and offer lots of good historical information. The travel company was super-communicative, checking in with us almost daily and keeping track of our driver pick-ups and in-country flights.

I think the highlight for me was the Salta Province—it's such a remote area, but with the most beautiful and diverse scenery. The travel company found for us a fantastic driver/guide who did all the driving on some treacherous terrain, translated all our communication, and found some charming places to eat while on the road. He also was very thoughtful in downloading a playlist with music we had talked about liking and put together a short video of our travels as a keepsake. There were some fabulous wineries in the Salta region, so we felt like we experienced a large part of the province.

We also visited Iguazú Falls, which were spectacular from Argentina and Brazil. The travel company made it easy in booking us accommodations inside the national park so we could get an early start on our tour. Our guide there was also wonderful—she shared a lot of interesting information of the area and even told us about a restaurant back in Buenos Aires which we visited, which turned out to be one of the highlights of the trip.

I would highly recommend the travel company, which can plan a great trip from soup to nuts. The women we worked with were delightful to deal with and so welcoming and helpful.

Working with Zicasso’s travel specialist and the team was easy and wonderful. Our group enjoyed all of our excursions and tours. The drivers and guides were all wonderful, kind, and informative. Our arrangements for staying were clean, accessible, in great locations, and with incredibly friendly staff. The daily reminders were perfect and the few times we had questions, the response was timely and helpful.

Fantastic! All events were exciting and fun. Zicasso’s travel company was so easy to work with. They had great recommendations. All contact in country was professional, on time, and very personable.
