Italy & Switzerland Tours

We had a fabulous trip to Italy, including to Sorrento, Taormina, and Rome. Zicasso’s travel specialist made sure every detail was taken care of, including stays in beautiful, well-located hotels and excursions that were interesting and fun for our family.

For example, she arranged for an airport host to assist us with our arrival to and departure from the Rome airport, and she was simply amazing, whisking us through the airport and eliminating stress for our family.

In all respects, a well-planned and well-executed trip to London and Rome. The guides were exceptional in knowledge, kindness, and sense of humor. The best restaurant recommendation was the one in London.

Zicasso’s travel company was great. Invariably, there are always hiccups on every trip, but the travel company worked very hard to rectify any issues. The itinerary they put together was perfect for our family and met everyone’s needs. The only thing I would recommend for future clients is that the timelines were pretty tight, so we were not always able to experience each place as much as we would have liked because transit times ended up being longer than what was listed in the itinerary.

For travelers, something to keep in mind when traveling in Switzerland in the winter is the shortened daylight hours and many shops and restaurants being closed throughout the holiday season.

One of the best decisions we made was to buy first-class rail passes, as the second-class cars were very busy, which would have been especially difficult on days when we were shuttling luggage from one city to the next. I would also recommend pre-booking seats on trains from Zermatt to Zurich after New Year’s, as we had to sit in a stairwell because there were no seats left.

The trip was seamless. Zicasso's travel specialist was always available for any questions or concerns, and even came up with ideas that I would never have come up with.

Amazing!! Everything from start to finish was simply amazing! The process, from the beginning with Zicasso to the end with Zicasso’s travel consultant, was flawless. She was in touch throughout the whole process. In preparation, she was very responsive and, once we were there, every little detail was thought through.

Zicasso’s travel company planned an amazing vacation for our family of five. Despite our late planning to go to Switzerland, they found us great accommodations in favorable locations and planned a two-week schedule that enabled us to see the sights and participate in varied winter activities, while leaving us the flexibility to determine what we wanted to do each day. It was a stress-free, adventurous family vacation.
