The entire itinerary, tours, and arrangements were all handled very professionally and with a personal touch. Each of their recommendations were perfectly matched to our group.

Peru arranged by this tour company.  This is our fourth trip using Zicasso associated travel companies.   The trip planners of this tour company arranged our hotels, transfers and tours specifically to our criteria.  We prefer cultural activities and touring historic and archeological sites with knowledgeable guides, as well as comfortable, unique accommodations that are also relaxing.  The company matched us perfectly to the activities we appreciate and, in particular, to guides who were enthusiastic, understood what would interest us and who were able to openly share their cultural with us.  Most of the accommodations exceeded our expectations in terms of comfort and distinctiveness.  All transfers were effortless allowing us to relax and focus on enjoying Peru rather than worry about how we would negotiate getting from one point to another.  The company was always available via email or phone to answer questions or for any need.  The quality of a travel company is made evident when challenges occur.  Our trip had included several days in Bolivia. We were contacted a day before by the tour company who informed us that the political situation in Bolivia had made a turn for the worst and it would not be safe to travel to most parts of the country.  They offered to change our itinerary to visit either safer areas in Bolivia or to see other areas of Peru not originally planned for our trip.  We opted for staying in Peru.  We spent an additional two more enjoyable days in Cusco and then traveled by plane to Lake Titicaca to fill our remaining tour days.  The hotel, tours, guides and meals were on par with the earlier parts of our trip.  It was clear that this company gave thoughtful consideration to making this change to our itinerary as enjoyable as possible.  They must have worked around the clock to make new arrangements for hotels, transfers and guides, but it seemed effortless to us. In addition, we were refunded a portion of the cost of our trip to Bolivia.  I had expected to pay more given all the changes that occurred.  

beautiful country with amazing sites, wonderful people, and unparalleled food/cuisine that it really should be on everyone's "must go" list.  This travel company once again did a phenomenal job organizing our trip.  The logistic side of the vacation went very smoothly with no hiccup, which is a compliment in itself given the number of flights we had to take, the number sites of we saw that required transportation, the multiple land transportation that had to be arranged (train, car, etc), and the schedule that had to be kept for several of our tours.  The travel planner had worked with us before on a previous vacation and a big kudos to her for remembering our family's preferences while organizing this trip.  I thought it had a great pace, and while some of the sites required some strenuous activity (which was unavoidable), we had a great support system and the entire family was able to get through all the sites safely and smoothly.  The choice of hotels were overall perfect (admittedly we did have issues at one of the hotels) and they were definitely in line with what we needed for the trip and with our preferences.  Finally, for most of the trip, we had some of the best tour guides we have ever had and we were extremely lucky to have had tour guide extraordinaire with us for the majority of the trip.  She not only made the trip extremely fun and enjoyable, but her knowledge base was second to none and we were able to learn so much about Peruvian culture and history.  She also made it an imperative to keep everyone in the family safe and accident-free and, for that, we were extremely grateful.  Finally, she was very receptive to our feedback and helped channel some of our negative feedback to the proper channels.  We truly had a fun time in Peru and this travel company will definitely be my go-to company for, not only Peru, but any of the South American countries.

was perfect.   I really could not have asked for more our trip planner's response time was perfect and always spent time to check on our status once in Peru.

and the whole travel team were so great to work with. They helped organize an individualized trip, within our budget, that met our interests.They developed an excellent itinerary for our group and checked in throughout our vacation to see how we were doing. From the outset, we were well taken care of.  We were met at the airport by our driver, who was very friendly and welcoming. He was very helpful in orienting us to Lima and getting us settled in our hotel.We were consistently met and transferred easily and happily from spot to spot and from Peru to Ecuador during our trip.The hotels were great and and the activities and guides were wonderful.I would recommend this team to anyone wishing to visit Peru and Ecuador.Thank-you to the whole Travel Team!Thank-you to Picasso for referring us to this travel team. 

the ideal sites to visit during our trip to Peru, as well as the proposed flow of our adventure.    The resorts that we were booked in to were beyond  our expectations....amazing!

The hotels were wonderful.  The provided meals were exceptional.  Our guides were knowledgeable and went out of their way to provide us with a glimpse of the beautiful country that is Peru.  Every detail was taken care of and added to our immense enjoyment of the experience. 

my expectations. The trip planner, from this tour company, listened to why we wished to visit Peru and planned accordingly with attention to every deatail.. Our two main guides ,were attentive, kind and very knowledgable. We departed Peru feeling we really knew the Inca culture and that was what we had hoped for.The pre infrormation was helpful and allowed one to relax and not worry about any details The hotels and food were excellent and the activities varied and stimulating.This was a  trip to remember for a life time.We highly recommend this tour company and in particular our planner who listened to our every request in a prompt and helpful way. We are ready to discuss with friends a trip to the Galapos Islands to be arranged by this team.
