The planning and execution by Zicasso's travel company were done with a lot of care and attention to detail.
The people chosen to provide various services (cab service, tour guides, etc.) were well-informed, friendly, and punctual.
The hotels chosen for the stay were comfortable and in very good locations. They were convenient for sightseeing, but also not too loud/noisy.
