Bangkok Vacation Packages

We had a great trip to Thailand with our Zicasso trip planner. They set us up with a very helpful guide in Bangkok, who made it easy from the time we stepped off the plane, through all the temples, activities, night markets, tuk-tuks, and boats. 

Our hotel in Bangkok was great, with nice views and a nice breakfast buffet. We took the free hotel ferry to the shopping mall and it was a lot of fun. 

Our resort in Koh Samui was incredible. It had a great beach and pool. The elephant sanctuary and the cooking class were highlights. We would probably pass on Pig Island next time as it was very dirty and we saw pigs getting attacked.

Overall, we had a great time and the tour guide took care of us completely, from start to finish. 

Zicasso's travel company was amazing! I cannot say enough good words about this company and all the people we worked with!

We planned our honeymoon to Thailand with our travel specialist. He gave us a call shortly after we filled out the contact form. We talked about what we were hoping for on our vacation and what kinds of hotels we like to stay at, etc. Our specialist was very responsive over the whole planning process and would send us sample itineraries until my partner and I were completely happy with the whole trip. His suggestions were thorough and we didn't have to do any research on our own.

We did a trip around the whole country: Bangkok, Chiang Mai, a couple of national parks, and Koh Samui. We had mostly private tours and they were all fantastic! The drivers and tour guides were all friendly and knowledgeable.

Each night, our contact messaged us all the details we needed for the next day. It was super-helpful and allowed us to relax more knowing someone was there for us. We really enjoyed our experience and would be happy to work with this travel company again!

The contact staff and guides were wonderful. Very helpful and knowledgeable. The travel company disappointed, and I have used Zicasso before, but they did not advise us of the weather in Phuket, where we were going into the monsoon season, and then suggested a private boat tour at a significant cost during the monsoon season. I just feel it should have been mentioned. Then, if I proceeded, it was on me. I have traveled quite a bit and always planned my trips. I don’t want to do it anymore, so I was very disappointed. Also, I picked the hotel in Phuket, rated as a five-star hotel, which it was not. Knowing the level of hotels we were staying at, other suggestions should have been offered.

We recently completed a 29-day custom-designed tour of Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam with Zicasso’s travel company. As a couple, we have toured 100 countries on six continents. We always travel by ourselves and not in groups. We often plan and book our itinerary and activities on our own. We have experienced tour operators in the past who just string together “cookie-cutter” activities and call it a custom tour. I commend the travel company for not taking this path.

Our tour was completely tailored to our needs. We went through several iterations of the itinerary to match it to our interests and they were untiring in making adjustments to suit our particular needs. The hotels were all of excellent quality and very well located. The itineraries in each of the locations we visited met our expectations and addressed the interests we had discussed with the representatives of the travel company. All of the guides were good and several were amongst the best we have ever had. The support of the travel company was outstanding throughout our trip, with daily check-ins and immediate reactions when assistance was requested. I would rate the tour as exceptional. I unhesitatingly recommend the travel company.

The recommended hotels were nice. All flights were well coordinated; however, travel time between regions was not well thought out; in some cases, it took 2 days to get from one itinerary destination to another. We were dropped at the wrong hotel in one instance and pre-arranged fast track service was not provided in a major airport. Tour guides and drivers were ok. Many of the tours need to be revamped; some being pointless (planting rice in mud, taking a concrete boat ride through a shallow cave, cycling through rice fields on rickety bikes), others being unhealthy (a salt rice lunch, food tours), or way too far of a drive out of the way (the Mekong Delta from Ho Chi Minh City). More guidance should have been offered in selecting the travel months so as to avoid extreme heat and smoke pollution conditions in the first 3 weeks of our 6 week trip.

Zicasso's travel company was first-rate. The entire trip went perfectly to plan and we had a number of complicated details. However, the travel company did such a good job planning that not a single detail was missed.

Additionally, we wanted the trip to be chock-full of different experiences, from doing a food tour of Bangkok to ATV riding in the jungles of Koh Samui Island in Thailand, and the travel company paired us with the perfect tour guide/tour company for exactly the experience we wanted.
