Spain Family Vacations & Tours

Zicasso's travel specialist and his team were awesome! All we knew was that we wanted to go to Lisbon and Barcelona, and see some local culture in Spain. He designed a trip from Lisbon to Sevilla to Córdoba (day trip) to Grenada (with a stop in Ronda) to Barcelona. The guides and tours were all excellent, and his hotel and travel choices were spot-on. Our guide in Grenada (our travel specialist himself!) was awesome. I can't recommend more highly.

Our trip was fantastic. The guides were excellent. The Madrid wine tour guide was excellent, our guide for the walking tour of Barcelona was excellent, our guide for the walking tour of Madrid city was excellent, and our guide for Tarragona and Sitges was excellent. We were so pleased with all the tours that I will not change anything for our next trip with you guys. I appreciate your company and the way you handle things. Zicasso’s travel specialist was so helpful. Thank you so much. I can't wait to do this all over again.

From our first phone call with Zicasso's travel specialist, it was clear that we were on the same wavelength with respect to what we sought from this trip, and she made it even better with her suggestions. She was always very quick to respond to our questions and input, and overall we were really thrilled with the itinerary she put together. The result was that Spain turned out to be even better than we had expected!

The schedule was excellent, including using Madrid and Seville as the bases for day trips. Our visit to Tangier, Morocco, was particularly terrific. We had never before entertained such a visit because of health and security concerns, but when we expressed some curiosity, she wholeheartedly encouraged us. Most importantly, she provided a personal guide who was wonderful. Our guide ensured we could experience a bit of the culture, avoid any problems, enjoy a delicious meal, and get our first camel rides!

Throughout our journey, she secured admission tickets to palaces, fortresses, museums, etc., in advance, and we never had to wait in lines. During our travels, she also provided four tour guides. All were excellent: professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. We very much enjoyed every one of them. That goes as well for the private driver she arranged. Our driver not only conveyed us to and from the ferry terminal for our trip to Tangier, but also from Seville to Ronda and on to Granada.

She also introduced us to a travel app. It was extremely easy to use, allowed us to have our itinerary and tickets with us at all times, and enabled us to communicate with her and her staff instantly, which we did whenever a question cropped up. A great resource that we hope to have on future journeys.

Finally, the hotels she chose. Overall, their locations, staff, service, and breakfasts were first-rate. As an example, we never had any trouble getting ice every night for sore knees following our day’s explorations. On the other hand, we feel we should note that one hotel in Granada had a subpar breakfast and that the front-desk staff at one hotel in Seville did not stand out. Lastly, although she had nothing to do with it, she and her clients should know that the taxi service in Seville was tenuous as a general matter when it came to our time-sensitive transportation needs. We did not miss any entry time or event, but the hotel confirmed that the norm in that city is to call for a ride with no certainty of getting picked up on a timely basis.

But we cannot end with that. Our experiences in Spain were exceptional and very meaningful thanks to her. Whenever the subject comes up with our friends, we will be sure to recommend her and Zicasso for a wonderful trip.

This was my family's first time taking a vacation where we partnered with a travel company to plan the itinerary and coordinate the corresponding details. Our overall experience was outstanding, with everything from fantastic hotels to prompt transfers to fun and engaging tours and activities. A+ for Zicasso's travel company.

Our family loved our trip to Spain. Zicasso's travel specialist was excellent to work with in planning the trip. He actively listened to what I was looking for, my family's interests, and budget, and helped me to create a truly memorable experience for each of us. I would not hesitate to book another trip through this company.

The trip was lovely, but our itinerary was too busy. We’re seniors and enjoy downtime each day. Some of the trips with drivers were too long. Our hotel in Barcelona was very nice with great food. The hotel in Seville was disappointing. The concept of Zicasso is good, but age-appropriate planning would be an improvement.
