Our Mediterranean Travel Specialists

It was an amazing trip! Zicasso's tour company made it super-easy to navigate and allowed us to move about without the stress and long lines. We could never have done so much in the time we had without the extreme attention to detail. We are very thankful we used them.

We had a great trip! We had a few glitches, but they were taken care of quickly! We would definitely use Zicasso's travel company again!
Thanks!
You did a great job!

Zicasso's travel specialists did a great job for us. They clearly listened to us and curated an experience that was made specifically for us. It checked all of the boxes and more.
Highlights were the local tour guides in each city. It was great to meet and get to know local people, learn so much history, see the architecture (Gaudí in Barcelona and the awesome palaces and cathedrals that we visited), the Montserrat hike, Caminito del Rey (which was absolutely better with a guide), and the Marbella e-bike adventure.
The hotels were wonderful; all unique and all great choices. We came home happy and tired, which is the sign of a good trip for us (since we do not ever sit on beaches or at pools and relax!).

Zicasso's travel experts made this trip effortless for us! They were responsive to my many questions and created a memorable trip for my daughter and me that included all of our favorite things, addressed any concerns I had, and stayed within our budget. Every detail was planned and communicated flawlessly. My daughter and I only had to pack our bags and enjoy every minute of this trip of a lifetime. I highly recommend Zicasso and their travel company!

Our Zicasso travel specialist and the team were great; helpful, immediately available when needed, and they ensured everything was as planned. The trip was wonderful, with great diversity in accommodations, activities, and locations. We really loved our time.

I’ve been using Zicasso to plan my vacations for nearly a decade and they consistently work with top-tier travel specialists who deliver unforgettable experiences. My recent trip was no exception—in fact, they exceeded my expectations at every turn.
From our very first conversation, the travel specialist listened attentively to what we wanted in terms of experiences, accommodations, guides, and pacing. He carefully crafted an itinerary that truly felt like the trip of a lifetime.
One highlight was a romantic surprise I asked him to arrange for my fiancée and me. What he delivered was absolutely magical: we were picked up in a horse-drawn carriage for an enchanting tour of Sevilla, treated to a private flamenco performance, and then enjoyed a romantic dinner for two as the sun set over the Guadalquivir River. It was unforgettable.
The travel specialist's expertise shone throughout the trip, especially in his choice of guides. Each one brought the destinations to life with engaging stories and deep local knowledge—not just dry facts. Every day brought a new highlight: from food and sherry tours to a hands-on cooking class and even crafting our own alpargatas. The pace was perfect—immersive experiences balanced with plenty of downtime to explore on our own.
The logistics were flawless. Every transfer was smooth and on time—we never had to worry about missing a connection or being left stranded. And anytime we had a question or needed support, the travel company was readily available.
In short, the travel specialist and his team created the perfect Spanish getaway. When we return to explore Portugal and northern Spain, I wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again.
Once again, Zicasso proved why they’re the best in the business—partnering with only the highest quality travel experts in each region.

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.

Our trip was perfect!! Zicasso's travel agent created an incredible itinerary for us and all we needed to do was enjoy every bit of Greece. She listened to what we were hoping to get out of our trip and planned out something better than we expected.
The tours were exactly what my family wanted and the guides were outstanding!! We had a university archaeology professor guiding us through the Acropolis in Athens; what could be better than that?! The transportation to and from hotels, to the different islands, and finally to the airport was smooth and our hotels were amazing.
We had a phenomenal trip and there’s no way I would have been able to do it myself. Our agent helped us have an experience that we will never forget and we’re already planning on coming back to Greece in a few years. If you’ve never used a travel company before, you’re seriously doing it wrong. Our agent made sure we experienced authentic Greek food, culture, and people, and for that we are extremely grateful.
