This trip was beyond expectations. The Zicasso travel planners did an outstanding job planning the trip we wanted. Most importantly, it was to be as stress-free as possible, not having to worry about traveling from stop to stop. Our agent was available 24/7 to make changes and help us make more plans and dinner reservations. When weather was inclement to participate in planned outside events, she planned ahead for other options. The wine-tasting experiences put together for us were magnificent! We will definitely utilize this travel company on our next trip to Italy!
