We recently used Zicasso's travel specialist to help plan and coordinate our trip to Paris and Lisbon, and the experience was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Every detail of our itinerary was thoughtfully arranged and the entire trip ran smoothly, thanks to their meticulous planning.

In both cities, the accommodations they selected were perfect—centrally located, charming, and comfortable, with excellent service. We truly felt like we were staying in places that matched our style and needs. The staff at both hotels were very accommodating and helpful.

The excursions and tours arranged by the agency were equally impressive. Each guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and added so much depth to our experience.

Zicasso's travel agency was absolutely outstanding, from the initial planning conversations through the details during the trip itself. The agents were clear, helpful, flexible, timely, and just a true joy to work with. Their travel platform was the best one we've used on any international trip.

From the great recommendations on adventures to the seamless (and friendly) transfers to the great hotel picks, it was just above and beyond in all regards. Thank you!
