Italy Trip Review: Rome, Tuscany, 2 Weeks

Zicasso's was an excellent travel company. The attention to all trip details by our tour operator was amazing. We enjoyed all the tours, the guides, the accommodations, the drivers, the Italian train system, and restaurant recommendations, and his itinerary information that we downloaded on our iPhones was extremely valuable throughout our entire trip. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. I would definitely consider using him for future travel.

Italy Travel Review: Boat Ride, Cooking Class, Pompeii,...

Hi! Zicasso's travel planner organized everything perfectly. He was very helpful and patient as we planned the itinerary with him. He had great suggestions and the trip could not have gone better. Zicasso checked in with us daily and sent reminders, etc. We felt very taken care of. Any questions during the trip were answered very promptly.

All of the excursions were wonderful. Our guide and the boat around Capri was our favorite. He was a wonderful guide. The cooking class in Sorrento was the best, with wonderful hosts. We had a blast. The guides for Pompeii, the Vatican, and the Colosseum were super.

All of the hotels were perfect regarding location, amenities, staff, food, and rooms. We were upgraded twice.

We would highly recommend Zicasso to our friends (already have). We couldn‘t have asked for a more professional group.

Thanks for making my dreams come true.

Greece Tour Review: 10 Nights

We had an absolutely amazing trip, thanks to Zicasso's travel agent and the rest of the team at the tour company. They listened carefully to what we wanted and created a perfect itinerary for us: Athens to Corfu to Santorini.  They took all of the stress out of our trip and allowed us to completely relax and enjoy ourselves. 

They handled booking accommodations, dining reservations, transportation, and all activities for us, and provided a detailed itinerary that had all of the information we needed.  I cannot recommend the travel company enough and we will certainly be using them next time we vacation in Greece or another location they service. Thank you!
