We used a Zicasso travel expert to plan our trip. The trip was absolutely fabulous and the service was very easy to use. We would definitely use them again.

Everything was arranged thoughtfully, with time for "adventures" and downtime at terrific resorts to relax. All pick-ups, travel by limo, and drop-offs went as arranged. The drivers, guides, and hotel staff were all very pleasant and kind. Zicasso's tour operator did a great job planning our eight-day, family-of-10 trip to Costa Rica! We appreciated that most tours, hikes, and ocean experiences were small groups of just our group of 10. This made it a personal and annoyance-free experience all around. Thanks!

This was our second trip set up using Zicasso. Once again, we were not disappointed. Our agent did a wonderful job and was accommodating to all our needs. We needed to have this set up for our disabled brother and she did a wonderful job getting us individually guided tours. We also had guides who were trained to deal with people with disabilities. It was great and my brother had an amazing time. We can't thank her enough.

Zicasso’s tour operator and his team planned the perfect vacation for our family (two teenagers and two adults).
It was the perfect combination of adventure, exploration, and water time, along with having all our needs attended to! It was great to have a detailed plan with pick-ups and drop-offs so we just had to show up on time!
The girls loved the private surf lessons, my husband enjoyed his fishing expedition, and we all loved our snorkeling tour and the sunset catamaran.
The accommodations and restaurant recommendations were wonderful, making this one of our favorite vacations! The planning, communication, and logistics were executed flawlessly. We sincerely appreciate all their work and expertise. We hope to use them again, as we plan to return!

This was my third time using Zicasso and, as expected, my experience was of the highest quality. Our agent was fantastic. He listened to what we wanted and arranged it for us. He had excellent suggestions and used only guides and drivers who were professional, friendly, well-versed in the area and history, on time, and fun to be with. Our hotels were all first class, our domestic flights were well thought out, and our activities were adventures we will always remember.
But the real test of a high-end, trustworthy agency is when something does go wrong and they are there for you. We booked all of our hotels and paid in full through our agency well in advance. Thirty minutes before we were due to arrive at one of the hotels (after a three-and-a-half-hour car ride and a 30-minute water taxi), we were waiting for the boat from the hotel to arrive for us and found out the hotel would not be accepting guests. Our agency had a new hotel for us, even nicer than the original hotel, within 20 minutes. They arranged for our transportation and rearranged all of our other activities. This new hotel was more expensive than ours and our agency automatically covered the cost, saying it was their responsibility. These are the type of agencies Zicasso hooks you up with. I totally recommend using Zicasso for all of your travel adventures.
