I cannot speak highly enough about our 3 week trip to this place and the services provided by this travel company. Everything was seamless. The private guides were interesting and knowledgable. We felt that they were more than just guides. It was like we had a friend in each city.

My fiance and I had never been to Europe, but wanted to plan a unique elopement trip to Spain. We had no idea where to start, and turned to some internet research to find the services of Zicasso and eventually connect with the team at this travel agency. From the first email exchange, we knew that our travel consultant and her team would be our travel company of choice.
