Our Sicily Travel Specialists

Zicasso's travel expert was very helpful in planning and making suggestions for the trip. We were delayed 16 hours out of the US and he took care of our transfer. He responded in a timely manner and was very good at his job.
While in Italy, I did WhatsApp him and he responded quickly. I would recommend his travel company to anyone who wants to go to Italy. He was great.

Zicasso's travel company did a great job communicating with me, from initial contact (months prior to vacation) until the day we left Italy to come home. They were incredibly detail-oriented and bent over backwards to be accommodating. All the services, tours, and personnel were top-notch; professional, friendly, and kind.

I don't know where to begin. The team at the Zicasso travel company was amazing. I spoke to several agencies, but they were the only one that made it a point to get to know me and learn about my family and what we wanted to do on our trip.
The personalization and communication were amazing, starting from the first email. The trip they helped me plan made memories for us that will last a lifetime. Everything they did and scheduled was perfect. The itinerary was followed to a T. Everything they planned, from the pick-up to the hotels to every excursion, was exactly how it was stated. We never waited for a ride or a guide, and the hotel choices were all incredible. They were available and responsive if we had any questions along the way and let me know the names and numbers of all the contacts we needed while there. They were extremely professional and amazing at what they do. I have passed their name on to everyone who has asked me about our trip and will continue to do so.

Zicasso's travel agent was wonderful! She listened to what we envisioned for our trip and made it all happen seamlessly!

The trip was amazing. Zicasso's travel agents were extremely organized and detail-oriented. The accommodations, tours, and restaurants were terrific.

The entire nine days of travel from Slovenia to Montenegro were seamless as far as being picked up at the arrival airport and departure as planned. Transportaion was on schedule, which was important to me in a foreign country and eliminated any stress. Each private guide and/or driver throughout our trip was courteous and spoke English, which avoided any misunderstanding about all the wonderful sites we saw.
Lake Bled was absolutely wonderful. The guide parked the van at this family home four blocks from the lake and introduced us to his mother and sister, who welcomed us, and we saw how they lived in this beautiful village. The walk of four blocks to the lake also gave us the opportunity to see more of this quaint place to live. Since the lake does not allow power boats, we and about 20 other people were rowed to the island, where an ancient church was located. We found out that this family, in the past, were the caretakers of the island and our tour guide had to row himself to the shore to go to school and, in the winter, skate to school every day.
Next, we were driven to the castle on top of a small mountain, which had a perfect, 360-degree view of the area. Beautiful!
The next day we went to Plitvice Lakes National Park, with too many waterfalls to count and water that looked as crystal clear as any natural water I have ever seen. The four-kilometer walk upstream was nothing like I've ever seen in the USA.
We spent the night in a wonderful mountain lodge, with individual lodges and an upper-end-style bed and breakfast theme.
Split was a city with parts dating back to the third century, with many Roman influences in its many buildings.
Mostar in Bosnia was very interesting and had a central arch-style bridge which seemed to be a central point for all to see. There was so much we saw that it is too much to describe here.
We also stopped at a wine tasting at the most modern winery I've ever been to. It even had 12 guest rooms, with a pool.
On our way to Dubrovnik, we stopped at Ston to have an unbelievable lunch. At the restaurant, we had an oyster tasting of fresh oysters being farmed several hundred yards from the restaurant. We were served oysters three ways, from raw to fried and baked, and they were the best I will ever eat in my life.
We next went to Dubrovnik, which was particularly interesting to me because it is where Game of Thrones was filmed. Our guide was excellent, as he worked as a "roadie" for the film company, helping set the scenes by taking down modern signs or anything modern, and putting them back after filming. He had large screen shots in a spiral binder and would take us to a cove and hold up the screen shot of the actual scene from the movie to show us the similarity. His behind-the-scenes knowledge of the actors and the reaction from the town and church was beyond expectations. My wife and I were fans of GOT and so excited that we are going to watch if all again one day.
Our last day was in Montenegro, which again was beautiful, and we spent the day next to the water there. We were ferried to a man-made island with an old church on it.
Overall, the Adriatic Sea along the coast of these countries was one of the most beautiful stretches of water you could imagine.
Our expectations of this tour were met and exceeded.

This was our first time working with this Zicasso travel agent and we now won't work with anyone else. From helping us develop the perfect itinerary for our interests (low-key, not too busy, focused on nature) and choosing the most incredible hotels for our budget, he went above and beyond, especially when things did not go as planned. Our international flight got canceled at the transfer airport and he worked with us minute by minute to get us to an alternative city and to where we needed to be. I know for certain that we would not have made it to our vacation had he not been able to share his knowledge as the airlines did not help us at all!
After that, and as we wanted a no-worries trip on which we did not have to look at the itinerary, he provided us daily debriefs about what the next day held in store and made sure we had all the information we needed.
His company helps plan trips in Europe, and we wish he also helped with trips to other countries and US cities, as we would use him all the time.
