We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Australia and, with the help of Zicasso’s travel specialists and the team, we were taken care of in every way possible. Working with the travel specialist was a breeze; she helped bring our trip ideas to life while also offering some great suggestions of her own. During the trip, we were also supported by the team when we needed to reconfirm details or track down missing documents (like our park pass, which we had forgotten to bring) and finalize all of the trip details.
The hotels were stunning and each excursion was more incredible than the last. Our guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional, which made each experience even more enjoyable.
We highly recommend using this travel agency and Zicasso for an unforgettable trip!

Zicasso’s travel specialist helped us plan a dream trip to Australia. Like most, we wanted to fit as many experiences into our trip as possible. She helped us pace our trip in a way that let us do that and still feel like we had the time to enjoy each stop along the way. She connected us to some fantastic local tour providers, who we never would have found on our own.
She provided us an initial plan for the trip, based on an example trip we found on Zicasso. We had two different agencies reply, but from the very beginning, it seemed like she understood what we needed the best. After reviewing that plan, we spoke directly with her about what we liked and would change about the plan. We worked through several revisions before settling on the final tour.
We were kept updated in the lead-up to our trip, provided a step-by-step daily itinerary that had all the details we needed at our fingertips, and she checked in periodically during the trip to make sure things were going well. I strongly recommend this travel company and have already passed her information along to someone I know who is considering a trip to Australia and New Zealand.

Two couples, we had three weeks to take in Australia and New Zealand. We worked with Zicasso’s travel agent to figure out the itinerary, activities, and logistics, etc. It couldn’t have gone better. There were many moving parts, from tours, activities, internal flights, and driver pick-ups. The execution was flawless. Not a single blip or misstep. As far as the activities chosen, a few were good, most were great. All four of us agree we had a spectacular trip. Our travel agent came through for us and did a great job!
