Sicily Wine Tours & Vacations

 Our travel agent was fun to work with and  all the trip arrangements went off without a hitch,

very responsive when I had questions. The tour guides were very professional and passionate about Sicily. We had heavy rain one day (Friday) of the trip and all archaeological sites in Sicily were closed by the authorities. The company quickly readjusted the tour and flipped Sunday’s tour (Catania and Siracusa) on the rainy day which worked out beautifully.I strongly recommend this company for those thinking of going to Italy.

and Sicily that was planned by our travel specialist at the company. He booked us into lovely hotels and arranged all of our ground travel so that we were met and driven everywhere in a black Mercedes no less. Not having to hassle with ground transportation is such a gift and luxury. Our travel specialist also arranged interesting tours that complemented our interests.

We wanted an experience that was off the beaten path, and centered around the food, wine, and culture of Sicily and Puglia. We are so grateful to have worked with our travel planners from this tour company - it was the most incredible trip, surpassing our greatest expectations! From our initial conversation it was clear that our planners had a passion for everything Italy, and we knew right away that working with them was the best choice. They worked tirelessly to create a custom, one-of-a-kind trip just for us that immersed us in places we never would have thought to visit – true hidden gems of southern Italy. My husband and I were especially impressed with the fact that each and every accommodation, immersive experience, and tour had been vetted and hand-selected by a tour company's staff member, resulting in a personalized, romantic trip that we will never forget!

a vacation of a lifetime for our family. We had a fabulous time! The trip was planned exceptionally well. The tour company was extremely attentive to our needs and reached out to us almost every day to make our we were enjoying our trip and if we needed anything. The itinerary that was put together was excellent. The tour guides were informative, knowledgeable  and very entertaining. The drivers were always on time and very polite. Our driver in Sicily had us in stitches! We even learned how to make limoncello and make mozzarella at a cheese store in Ravello. He and his wife were the most warm and inviting people ever. His generosity will never be forgotten. The activities that our planner and his team put together really took into account the interests of each member of our family. Our daughters loved the beaches and tours. The hotels were beautiful. This travel team really took the time to make sure that everyone and their needs were taken care of. If we had a question, it was answered immediately. This was a one of our best vacations ever and this travel team make it possible. We had a phenomenal time.

general idea of what I wanted to see, but needed guidance as to the overall flow of the trip, what we can see (and should) in 9 days and recommendations for hotels etc. The trip planner of this travel team made it all happen and was very easy to work with. He listened to what I wanted to see (what was important to us, what we enjoy ....) and made recommendations when asked for his opinions. We decided to drive ourselves, but have guides in most of the places that we visited.Given our detailed and full schedule, our trip went very smoothly - Palermo, Cefalu, Monreale, Segesta, Erice, wine tasting in Marsala, Agrigento, Villa Roma in Piazza Armerina, Caltigirone, Ortigia, Siracusa, Noto (more wine tasting), Ragusa, Mt. Etna and Taormina. Our travel agent's advice and recommendations were excellent and everything was well organized. Our guides were extremely knowledgeable and friendly (and always on time).This travel team is an excellent agency, with an emphasis on service. After we arrived in Sicily, Giulio and his colleagues called us to see if we needed anything or were having any problems. They had given us a SIM card to make the communication easier. It was very helpful to have someone who was able to help us IF we needed assistance. For example, when we wondered if it would be possible to have a short walk on Mt. Etna (since the weather was clear), they quickly sent us the directions and information as to where we should go. 

I highly recommend this travel team and would use this agency for future trips to Italy.

Tuscany, the Amalfi Coast and Sicily. We worked closely with the travel designer at this travel team to plan this trip. Our travel designer was terrific throughout the whole time - both in planning the trip and supporting us while we were in Italy with any questions. Her recommendations for destinations, hotels and activities were perfect. We felt like we spent enough time at each location. We are fussy about hotels and our designer worked closely (and patiently) with as we selected hotels. Our drivers were always on time and the guides were extremely knowledgeable. We could not have had a better experience in traveling through those parts of Italy. A very big Thank You to our travel designer. I would highly, highly recommend her.

from our travel consultant who was so excellent in all her efforts of putting together such amazing trip including perfect recommendations of places to go and stay! Also, each one of her guides and drivers and Rome airport escort were fabulous!! She has a great team working with her!! 

professional and flexible. Our trip to Sicily was flawless.  We were especially interested in history walking tours and our guides were exceptionally well educated, informative and lovely.

activities to fit our needs .  The tour guides were knowledgeable, answered all our questions and the drivers were prompt, courteous and careful. Our driver in Siracusa, went over and above to insure that our time in southern Sicily was unforgettable. 

and her team for our trip to Sicily. Everything was great. The drivers were on time and very nice and professional. Hotels were lovely. I would definitely use Zicasso again. 

a 2 week trip to Italy.  We customized the trip based on our desire to see the Amalfi Coast, Naples and Sicily but also return to Rome and Florence for a few days.  The trip was very well organized and every detail was arranged and went perfectly.  From the private drivers to and from the airports and train stations to the hotels, tour guides and specific tours, everything was great.  Our travel planner communicated everything prior to the trip and while we were traveling in Italy.  We got text messages with the names of our drivers, guides, etc.  She was easy to communicate with and always accessible during our trip.  I couldn’t have asked for a better travel company. Working with our travel planner was fantastic.  We will definitely use her again for our next trip!
