Our Southern Africa Travel Specialists

We had a fantastic time. The travel company thought of everything and guided us through what could have been a complicated trip. We appreciated that we were met at every airport by drivers and guides. Our accommodations were beyond our expectations.
Our travel specialist really took into account what we told him to make sure our needs and our budget were met. His Zoom calls were so helpful with the planning. We stayed at three different bush camps and each was unique in its own way, giving us a wide variety of experiences and many wonderful animals to observe and photograph.
I have already mentioned our travel specialist to a couple of friends, suggesting that if they are planning a trip to Africa, he is their man. Thank you, Zicasso, for recommending the travel company.

The trip was the dream of a lifetime. Everything was above and beyond. Zicasso’s travel operator made the process smooth and I had zero to worry about.

We had an exceptional experience with this Zicasso travel company
We were extremely pleased with all the accommodations and bookings arranged through this travel company. Our travel specialist was exceptional in helping us create a truly unforgettable experience. The lodges she selected perfectly matched our preferences and we were consistently impressed by their outstanding hospitality and the quality of the game drives. We would wholeheartedly recommend this travel company to anyone planning an African safari.
This was our fourth trip booked through Zicasso and we continue to be delighted with their recommended agents. This travel company exemplifies the quality and service we've come to expect.

Our trip was a 5 out of 5 and I would gladly recommend Zicasso’s tour operator and our travel designer to anyone who is planning a trip to Africa. We loved all of our accommodations, which included 3 camps as well as our accommodation in Cape Town.
All of the people we encountered throughout our 2 weeks took care of our every need in such a thoughtful way. The safaris themselves were spectacular, and our guides were super-knowledgeable and fun to spend time with. Food at all of our stays was excellent. And the logistics for the entire trip were seamless!

We had an excellent experience with Zicasso’s travel specialist and our travel agent specifically. Planning a trip so far away is never easy! However, our travel specialist took our vision for our honeymoon and made it a reality! Her communication was always extremely prompt and professional.
I wanted several iterations and edits to our itinerary, trying to meet certain goals and price points, and she worked with me until we got exactly what we wanted. We were extremely impressed throughout our entire trip.
All of our guides were prompt and professional, and we didn't experience a single logistical hiccup, which feels like quite the miracle for a two-week trip a 15-hour flight away from home for us. We would highly recommend this travel company’s services for all of your South African travel needs.

I have just returned from the trip of a lifetime, a “bucket-list” trip with dangerously high expectations that Zicasso's travel specialist somehow managed to far exceed.
Planning began more than a year ago when I came across Zicasso during my research and was connected with our travel specialist, who specializes in travel throughout Africa.
After an email or two, we scheduled a phone call and, from the beginning, our travel specialist listened carefully to what we were looking for in an African adventure. She understood that we wanted to experience as much as possible without spending our vacation enduring arduous travel days or flying on tiny planes. As I learned more about the region, she helped us craft an itinerary that perfectly blended safari, culture, the beautiful wine country, and the history and energy of Cape Town.
Every accommodation was magnificent, and our transfers and private guides were seamless, knowledgeable, and professional. Several of the people we met along the way made such an impression that we hope to remain in touch with them. Our travel specialist’s firsthand knowledge of the region was invaluable, not only in helping us choose the places she knew we would love, but also in knowing which places could wait for another trip.
Over the course of the year, through a handful of phone calls and emails, she crafted what truly felt like the perfect itinerary. Everything was set, until the night we were supposed to board our flight to begin the adventure. Our flight was canceled due to weather and could not be rebooked for several days. Because every detail of the trip had been meticulously coordinated, transfers, internal flights, hotels, safari lodges, and private guides, I watched our carefully planned holiday begin to fall like a row of dominoes.
I immediately reached out to our travel specialist and she went to work. Tirelessly and seemingly miraculously, she managed to salvage our trip, rearranging flights, accommodations, transfers, and the first several days of an itinerary that had taken a year to plan. Because of her extraordinary effort, we were still able to experience one of the most special and memorable trips of our lives.
A great travel advisor can plan a wonderful trip. You discover just how exceptional one is when everything goes wrong. Our travel specialist was there when we needed her most and I cannot imagine how we would have navigated those first few days without her.
If you are lucky enough to visit Africa, you may come home with incredible photographs and memories, but also with something far more lasting: a greater understanding of the world, a deeper appreciation for your own life, and a little more humility about your place in it.
We are enormously grateful to our travel specialist for helping make this truly the trip of a lifetime and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone considering an African adventure.

We love Zicasso! Zicasso made planning our dream honeymoon a breeze! The travel company was wonderful! They were so friendly and patient! They really took our interests, pace, and budget into account in planning a wonderful trip. They were so communicative and available, answering all of our questions, from big to small.
The trip itself was smooth, without any issues. Throughout our journey, we always felt supported and safe. From the drivers and tour guides to the hotel staff we interacted with while in South Africa, everyone was so welcoming and kind.
We raved about the ease in planning travel with Zicasso and passed along this amazing tool to many of the travelers we met on safari. Thank you again for everything!

Wow, where do I start? Working with Zicasso's travel specialist was a dream. She possesses an amazing attention to detail! She has excellent communication. I felt she had a real desire to create the best birthday trip for me.
