Iceland Vacation Review: Snorkeling, Hiking, Glacier, Volcano, 10 Days

Our trip was absolutely amazing. Zicasso's tour operator did a great job planning out the details and creating an itinerary that allowed us to see everything we wanted to in an efficient manner. We had a lot we wanted to squeeze into 10 days and we were able to do it all.

The hotels/bed and breakfasts we stayed at were perfect. Even when we ran into an issue with one of the planned hotels, our agent found multiple replacement options and took care of everything, making something that would have been frustrating a seamless experience. We cannot recommend Zicasso and our travel company enough.

Iceland Tour Review: Local Cuisine, Culture, 10-Day Trip

Zicasso's travel agent was fantastic in all aspects of planning our trip. I laid out our desires for what we wanted to see and do during our time in Iceland, and he exceeded every expectation we had.

We were nervous to be traveling with a one-year-old, but he made sure we had a pack and play in every hotel, and the accommodations were perfect. His recommendations for when and where to add excursions to our itinerary were invaluable. He made sure that each day was filled with adventure, but left enough time to relax and spend ample time at each stop.

On one of the days, we got a late start and messaged him to change the time of our excursion. Within 15 minutes we were booked for later in the day. I cannot recommend him and his team enough. Five stars!
