Rwanda, Kenya Solo Safari Review: Wildlife, Culture, 10 Days

From the beginning of planning until my return home from a sensational trip, Zicasso’s travel specialist provided optimum guidance, follow-through, and personal attention. She listened, absorbed, and responded to my concerns with patience and diligence, responded promptly to every question, and proactively provided detailed information on every aspect of the arrangements I might possibly encounter.

She kept in touch with me and the ground operators at every step of the journey itself, ensuring things went smoothly and I received timely information of any changes (typical with African bush flights). The care was particularly reassuring, especially for a woman traveling alone, leaving me confident that all considerations were being attended to and able to fully enjoy the experience free of any concerns about logistics, personal safety, and comfort. I cannot more highly recommend this travel specialist and would not hesitate to engage her services for future travels.

Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Seychelles Trip Review: Gorilla Trekking, Safari, 10 Days

This was our first adventure into Africa. Zicasso's travel agent and the team put together the perfect itinerary. It provided an excellent overview of various African cultures and, of course, exposure to all the wildlife and scenery that Africa offers. This included gorilla trekking in Rwanda and 10 days on safari at three different bush camps. Prior to heading home, we relaxed in the island paradise of Seychelles.

Our travel agent handled all the details, including reservations, transportation, and communications. In addition to a printed itinerary, she provided a phone application that allowed us to access our itinerary at any time. The application included emergency contacts, airline e-tickets, and detailed information pertaining to each location we stayed.

In addition, our travel agent set us up with our local hosts to meet us at each destination, handle baggage, and provide necessary transportation. This made our adventures relaxing and completely stress-free. We can't say enough about her expertise and services. Her attention to detail and knowledge of the African continent is beyond compare. We highly recommend her when planning your African adventure.
