Scotland Vacation Review: Oban, 17-Day Trip

We traveled for 17 days, visiting nine cities and towns. In that time, we stayed at nine boutique B&Bs or townhouse apartments, were transported by nine private drivers, five trains, and a flight. We went on eight private or semi-private tours and participated in five cultural activities. Everything mentioned here was prearranged by Zicasso’s travel specialist and her team, and I cannot imagine the amount of work and time it took to make this all come together. It was an amazing trip. We experienced everything we asked for and more.

Belize Tour Review: Cayo District, Placencia, ATM Cave, Mayan Ruins, Cave Float, Belize Zoo, Monkey River, Snorkeling Adventure, 1 Week

I absolutely loved our visit to Belize and Zicasso's travel specialists made sure we had everything we needed for a wonderful time. I traveled with my three daughters (ages 10, 13, and 15). The activities the travel specialist suggested were spot-on.

We started in the Cayo District at a beautiful hotel adjacent to the river. We visited Mayan ruins, did a night tour, and visited the ATM Cave. Then we did a cave float and visited the Belize Zoo on the way to Placencia. We again stayed at an incredible resort, going on a tour of the Monkey River and an amazing snorkeling adventure. She even made sure we had a golf-cart rental to get around the peninsula easily.

Our days were filled, but not too busy, the perfect amount of scheduled and unscheduled time. The attention to detail was excellent. The travel specialists made sure I was happy with the itinerary when the deposits were due and before we left the US, but then they also checked in on us during the trip multiple times to make sure everything was going well and we had everything we needed. I highly recommend Belize and this travel company!

United Kingdom, Italy, Greece Travel Review: Rome, Athens, Vatican, Highclere Castle, Cotswolds, 25 Nights

We had an absolutely wonderful trip!!! The travel company's assistance was greatly appreciated in planning and providing us with great advice. All the hotels were lovely and their staff very helpful in providing guidance and assistance when requested. All the drivers were professional and very friendly, and all the tour guides were excellent and very personable throughout the trip. We really had an amazing time; the trip, the tours, and the food checked off everything on our “bucket list” in each location, yet we still had time to relax and just enjoy our surroundings.

Zicasso's travel company and the help desk were great throughout the entire trip and helped enormously in making our dream trip a reality.
