Thailand Trip Planner

The trip was wonderful. We went to five different places in 17 days. We got to see the best of Singapore, Siem Reap (including a wonderful show that was there just for us), Bangkok, Chiang Mai (where we bathed the elephants), and Krabi. All the stops were great and our guides were all fabulous. We had high tea with Zicasso’s travel specialist and his assistant in Siem Reap. It was nice to meet him. Any minor issue we had, the travel company stepped in and helped immediately. Overall, it was an amazing experience.

To our travel specialist,

We would like to thank you for putting such an amazing trip together for us.

Your hotel choices were spot-on! We were happy to be by the river in Bangkok.

In Hanoi, our guide was a walking Wikipedia. He adjusted our schedule to a perfect spot to see the train upon my request. The signature cruise on a lovely boat was a highlight of the trip.

Our guide in Ho Chi Minh City was great in communication. She reached out on WhatsApp before our arrival. We enjoyed the Happy Buddha and canoe experience.

The tunnel tour was very disappointing. We seemed very rushed and we listened to other tour guides for information. Lunch was at 10.45am and we arrived at the airport five hours before departure.

Our guide in Bangkok was so compassionate. She taught us about offerings and the lotus. The river location was perfect for us.

Our guide in Chiang Mai was very soft-spoken and gave us a fabulous tour. She wanted us to experience the “northern food!"

The elephant sanctuary you chose was perfect, with just the right amount of time.

In Phuket, we were not picked up by our assigned driver. Our guide was there with a driver. She was helpful in the airport upon our return to Hong Kong.

This was an amazing trip for both of us!

Thank you so much!

The contact staff and guides were wonderful. Very helpful and knowledgeable. The travel company disappointed, and I have used Zicasso before, but they did not advise us of the weather in Phuket, where we were going into the monsoon season, and then suggested a private boat tour at a significant cost during the monsoon season. I just feel it should have been mentioned. Then, if I proceeded, it was on me. I have traveled quite a bit and always planned my trips. I don’t want to do it anymore, so I was very disappointed. Also, I picked the hotel in Phuket, rated as a five-star hotel, which it was not. Knowing the level of hotels we were staying at, other suggestions should have been offered.

Zicasso's travel company was first-rate. The entire trip went perfectly to plan and we had a number of complicated details. However, the travel company did such a good job planning that not a single detail was missed.

Additionally, we wanted the trip to be chock-full of different experiences, from doing a food tour of Bangkok to ATV riding in the jungles of Koh Samui Island in Thailand, and the travel company paired us with the perfect tour guide/tour company for exactly the experience we wanted.

I really enjoyed this trip. The vacation was carefully planned by Zicasso's travel specialist and I appreciated the flexibility during the trip as well. For example, when our guide learned that a temple was closed on the day I was scheduled to visit, he modified my itinerary to make sure I would be able to see the temple the next day. I really appreciated that foresight!

Zicasso’s travel company did a phenomenal job planning and executing our trip to Thailand. Our travel specialist paid very close attention to our goals for this trip to Thailand and delivered an itinerary, with very few edits needed, that allowed us to balance fun with much-needed rest and relaxation at charming hotels in Chiang Mai and Koh Samui.

The operations team flawlessly handled all the logistics and clearly communicated each day's plans. We didn't have to worry about a thing and just needed to show up for the fun.

We loved the excursions that the team arranged: a wonderful bike ride through the Chiang Mai countryside, a tasty cooking class with an amazing chef, a visit with elephants at an ethical sanctuary, and a trip to one of the famous Chiang Mai temples. When inclement weather resulted in the cancellation of one of our excursions, the team promptly handled a refund request without being asked.

We highly recommend this travel company and will use them again whenever our travels take us back to Thailand. Thank you to the team and the travel company for an amazing trip!
