Spain Tour Review: Madrid, Seville, 12 Nights

We had a great trip, with knowledgeable guides who were very well organized. The one hiccup we encountered, the cancellation of all train service to the south due to a horrific train accident, was proactively and smoothly handled. A car service was arranged for us, as no flights were available. The hotels selected were well located in the historic areas, so we could explore some hidden gems on our own. The Madrid and Seville hotels were both historic and so fun to stay at. Overall, an excellent trip.

Spain Tour Review: 1 Week

Zicasso’s travel specialist is absolutely A+—BEST IN CLASS!!!

Planning the trip with him was delightful. He listened carefully during our initial call and we had several conversations and emails to design the itinerary. His recommendations were spot-on and he was very flexible and supportive of our requested modifications, and incredibly responsive. It was an excellent experience planning the trip!

We LOVED the travel app he uses—it was truly helpful during the time we were in Spain. Everyone in our family really appreciated it!

When on the ground in Spain, we were in texting contact with him throughout the trip, including requesting additional add-on experiences the day before, which he made happen, and other small and meaningful adjustments! All of the drivers and guides selected were on time, professional, with deep knowledge, and delightful and fun to be with.

We absolutely loved our trip and it was just fabulous to work with a travel partner as excellent as him!

We highly recommend!!

Morocco, Spain Travel Review: Madrid, Cordoba, Granada, Alhambra Tour, Prado Tour, 10-Day Trip

Our family had an amazing time on our 10-day trip to Morocco and Southern Spain! The itinerary that was crafted for us was wonderful, where we saw multiple cities, with simple transfers.

The tour guides in each city were wonderful, with incredible knowledge of each city and site that we toured.

The hotels in Spain that were chosen for us were also great in quality and location—ideally situated in each city. In particular, our hotel in Córdoba was beautiful, located in an historic building.

All of the transportation services used had professional drivers in modern, clean vans.

In the event that we had an issue, question, or needed a recommendation, Zicasso’s tour company was very responsive and really helpful. We really were happy with our experience in the planning and execution of our family trip!
