From our initial conversation to finalizing the itinerary and final preparations, Zicasso’s travel consultants have been fantastic to work with. They kept in contact with us during our trip to ensure everything was to our liking, including the last-minute scheduling of car transport when one of our bush planes was canceled due to low clouds.
As for the itinerary and the hotel/lodge/safari recommendations, all were exceptional and offered something different to experience. Our entire trip, from start to finish, was exceptional, with great locations, great safari experiences, and wonderful food.

Both of our guides in Ghana, and in Togo and Benin, were excellent. They not only followed the itinerary, but they added activities that were of interest to us. They were competent, enthusiastic, and very well informed. Our driver was a great support.
On our last day, which was on our own, he offered to drive us to the places we wanted to go and then delivered us to the airport. One of our guides surprised us on the last day and joined us for our final activities, even though we had said our goodbyes the week before when we left Ghana.

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.
