Morocco Tour Review: Chefchaouen, Saharan Desert, Fes, Marrakesh, Atlas Mountains, Imlil, Camel Ride, 12 Nights

Zicasso, thank you so much for having our agent put together this 10++++ trip for us. He beautifully put together the custom trip of a lifetime. We will be eternally grateful to him.

Our hotels and sweet riads were just gorgeous. Our guides in each city were very fun and very helpful. And our very favorite part of the trip was our fantastic driver. Not only is he a very safe and excellent driver, but he is also a very kind, generous, dependable, and thoughtful person. We loved our conversations with him on our drives, learning about the Moroccan customs, history, religions, and his family and friends.

Indonesia, Thailand Honeymoon Review: Bali, Perfect Itinerary, 2 Weeks

My wife and I spoke with a lot of travel agencies while planning our honeymoon to Bali and Thailand, but from our very first conversation with Zicasso’s travel specialist, it was clear we would be using this travel company. His attention to detail was on another level—every transfer, activity, hotel, and timing was thought through perfectly.

The itinerary the travel specialist built for us was not only seamless, but also incredibly well curated. We never felt rushed, everything flowed naturally, and we got to experience the absolute best each destination had to offer. From adventure days to romantic, relaxing moments, he made sure everything aligned with exactly what we wanted.

The entire trip was stress free, beautifully organized, and genuinely exceeded every expectation we had. It was the perfect honeymoon and we owe that to him.

We would 100% use the travel company again and highly recommend them to anyone planning a special trip.

Brazil Travel Review: Salvador, Olinda, Recife, Rio de Janeiro, Cooking Class, 20 Nights

It was a fantastic trip overall. Our only issue would be perhaps a few fewer churches? We were a bit "churched out" by Salvador. Other than that, we had great guides and a great itinerary that took us to such wonderful and unique spots.

Spain Vacation Review: Madrid, Granada, Seville, Barcelona, Costa Brava, Toledo, Cordoba, Flamenco, Sailing, Museums, Cathedrals, 11-Day Trip

My husband, our two adult sons, and myself had the pleasure of going to Spain for 11 nights. We didn’t know much about the country, so we relied on Zicasso’s travel specialist to guide us. From the start, she explained the history, culture, food, etc.

We traveled to Madrid, Granada, Seville, Barcelona, and Costa Brava! We also took day trips to Toledo and Córdoba. We had excellent tour guides and drivers. Our trip flowed nicely, as we were on the go a lot of the time.

It was a trip of a lifetime for our family. We looked forward to the tapas, paellas, Jamón Ibérico, gazpacho, empanadas, rabo de toro, and, of course, the seafood every evening. The Spanish people were great and some we’ll never forget!

We learned so much about the ancient and early history, including the Roman conquest through the Medieval and early modern history. We were taking in this information all week, including the Prado Museum, the Picasso Museum, and the Dalí Theatre-Museum!

A simple family moment was sitting on our rooftop in Seville by the pool looking out at this beautiful city, which was difficult to leave!
