Wonderful! We did and saw a lot, and everything went smoothly. Zicasso's travel designer was very responsive to our questions and listened to what our expectations were for our trip. She really was a pleasure to work with. When she was out of the office, her colleagues were equally responsive and easy to work with.

My wife and I just returned from a two-week trip in France that was mostly organized by the travel company. Zicasso's travel designer organized all of the transportation, accommodations, and activities for a combined week-long stay in Normandy and in Paris. In addition, she coordinated transportation and tours for us and a group of friends who joined us for a cooking school in the Loire Valley after our first week in France. The travel company did not plan the cooking school event.

The planning process started with a telephone conversation with our travel designer. I described our travel style, what we wanted to see and do, and a rough budget, and she came back with a preliminary itinerary. We had a second conversation and adjusted that itinerary to match with our travel and budget needs. I thought she was very helpful and responsive to this part of the process.

Overall, we were very pleased with the service and the product we got from the travel company. Everything was very well coordinated and well organized.

The only glitch we had was upon arrival in France. Our driver was not there to meet us at the airport. I texted her and she quickly contacted the driver and solved the issue (he couldn't find parking). In addition, we happened to be there when there was a potential work stoppage by air-traffic controllers and other government employees. Our travel designer proactively reached out to me to inform us of the situation. I really appreciated that.

Our accommodations were all excellent and very well located. The small group tours and private guides we had were also very well qualified and professional. In addition, the travel company had an app which contained the itinerary, travel documents, and other useful information. That was pretty slick!

I've mentioned our travel designer in this review, but she also works with a team of other people. Everyone we worked with was great and we wouldn't hesitate to use the travel company again should the need arise.

This was one of my bucket-list trips and I was not disappointed at all. Our travel agent did an amazing job of explaining, organizing, and communicating everything for this trip. I only wish I had stayed a few more days to see everything we wanted to, but I want to go back and I will most likely use Zicasso again for any trips I book.

This trip could not have been better planned or executed. The transitions were seamless, the hotels were incredible, with Michelin-star restaurants, and the guides were knowledgeable and attentive to our individual preferences. The travel agency Zicasso referred us to could not have prepared a better trip or arranged things any better. They were great.

Zicasso's tour operator was good in their organization of this trip. Their mobile phone app was always updated to reflect the latest trip and driver changes, with updates and reminders on the flights as well.

They were very responsive and flexible with queries on changes we wanted to make and would offer suggestions and recommendations whenever it mattered to make the trip a more enjoyable one.
