Travel Review: Luxury Birthday Trip to France, Paris, Eiffel Tower Dinner, Wine Tours

We just returned from a one week stay in Paris to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday.  Having never been to Europe, I was at a loss as to where to begin.  I found an ad for Zicasso in a Travel Magazine and enlisted assistance from their experts.  It was a bit unnerving to put my trust and money into an agency in Paris while we live in Canada.  My fears were immediately eliminated once this travel agency contacted me.  From the very first email response, this travel agency captured my vision for what became the most memorable trip of our lives so far.  The itinerary she created showcased not only the popular tourist attractions but also areas known only to the locals of Paris.  The hotel she selected was centrally located, charming and employed friendly, helpful staff.  Our driver was skillful, prompt and always picked us up with a welcoming smile.  Our private tour guide was an intelligent, gracious person who genuinely wanted us to enjoy each and every tour.  The combination of structured tours and free time, created by our agent, was perfectly balanced so that we did not feel rushed.   The success of this memorable vacation is owed entirely to this travel agency!
