Our Portugal Travel Specialists

Every step organized with our Zicasso travel specialist was seamless. Everything went as planned. All the hotels, guides, and tours selected were wonderful, and all the transportation types (trains, planes) were mostly very easy to navigate going between Barcelona, Sevilla, and Madrid.
The travel specialist was always available to discuss any aspect of the trip, including during our stay in Spain. We give the travel company an excellent review and will recommend Zicasso to our friends!
Job well done to our travel specialist!

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.

The trip aligned perfectly with what we had told the Zicasso travel company we wanted to experience. Communication was prompt throughout; our questions were always answered quickly and the follow-up was thorough.
There were a couple of minor issues, including one technical glitch with their application not updating information, which caused a minor scheduling misstep, but throughout the entire trip, they were always available to help and quick to resolve the issues.

Zicasso’s travel company made our trip to Portugal so easy and an outstanding experience for our family. Our travel advisor made excellent recommendations and continued to be available to us throughout our trip if questions arose. We had multiple groups arriving at different times and airports, and our car service was five-star and so easy.
In addition, we had a private cooking experience at our villa that was fun for the whole family. I recommend trying this travel company for an informative and simple process to use local guides for your trip to Portugal.

Zicasso's travel company provided our family with a memorable trip. All of our excursions and experiences were private and the tour guides were so knowledgeable, courteous, and friendly. The experiences were varied, including kayaking, a food tour, an e-bike tour, and a private lunch with a vineyard owner. We loved it all!

The trip was flawless and Zicasso's travel specialist was a delight to work with. I would book with him anywhere, anytime.

Our trip was outstanding. Everything went so smoothly and all the activities were so much fun. It was easy to get in touch with our contact at Zicasso’s travel company. For example, we were running late to one of our activities and she was able to reach out to the guide and let him know. It really took all the stress out of traveling. I highly recommend this travel company!

All the drivers, guides, and transfers were on time and super-helpful and friendly. He took the stress out of planning our trip so we could just relax and enjoy our vacation. We would definitely use them again!
