Middle East & North Africa Travel Agents and Reviews

I can't say enough good things about our recent trip to Morocco, and it’s all thanks to our amazing travel agent! From start to finish, everything was perfectly arranged.

The hotels were fantastic – comfortable, welcoming, and ideally located for exploring. Our driver was incredible, always punctual, friendly, and knowledgeable, making our journeys enjoyable and safe. The car was spacious and comfortable, allowing us to relax and take in the beautiful scenery.

The itinerary was thoughtfully crafted, striking a perfect balance between guided tours and free time to explore on our own. Each day was filled with unforgettable experiences and stunning sights.

Overall, this trip exceeded our expectations in every way. I highly recommend this Zicasso travel agent for anyone looking to experience the magic of Morocco!

Zicasso’s travel company was excellent – extremely responsive and very thorough!

These are my specific thoughts regarding Cairo:

The hotel had the best breakfast. It was really impressive in terms of service and food.

The days in Cairo were really long in terms of touring. Admittedly, I was not feeling well for the majority of the trip.

We didn’t appreciate the carpet-seller stop. They tried hard to sell to us, but we were simply not interested. I would remove this (although I didn’t see this on the original itinerary). Also, we weren’t interested in the Papyrus Institute, but felt it was being pushed on us.

Instead of carpets and papyrus, we would have appreciated the Marian apparition site that I reached out about. We would have loved to see that.

Also, there was not a food tour. We stopped for lunch at a shawarma place. It was delicious, but there was no ‘food tour’ as we experienced in other cities. We declined the dessert/ice cream stop.

We did not do the camel trip. The heat was oppressive at this point and I didn’t feel well.

Specific thoughts regarding the second half of the trip:

Our Egyptologist was amazing. He was very personable and very knowledgeable, and it really added quality to our trip. He was able to revise the itinerary, etc, when I needed medical help.

The hotel in Aswan was amazing! We loved this stop.

The Nile cruise was the absolute best experience. The staff arranged for me to see a doctor when I was sick and were so kind and thoughtful. The food and service were exceptional on this boat. We were sad to leave!

In Luxor, I would give folks the choice between dinner at their hotel or a meal at another venue. Our hotel was beautiful and I would have preferred to stay in that night rather than go out for dinner. The hotel really was an incredibly unique venue, with music and a table with a view, but the food was just okay. I think the food could have been better.

We did not do the balloon trip before we left.

It was an excellent trip! So many of the folks acknowledged our anniversary and birthday, and we are grateful for their kindness. We are very appreciative of your help and would recommend this Zicasso travel company’s services to all!

 

Our trip to Morocco, Marrakech specifically, was wonderful, starting with our interaction with our Zicasso travel specialists. They listened to our interests and wish list and put together an amazing itinerary. I highly recommend this travel company, with no hesitation.

Our driver and guide were knowledgeable, personable, and interesting, providing insight into the history and culture of Morocco and Marrakech.

The trip organization was excellent. Despite many changes, the Zicasso tour agency was on top of all the changes and made the trip successful and memorable.

Our agent organized a climb with a guide and his team of porters, cooks, etc. I cannot recommend the guide and his team enough. They were the best I have had over the past years. I will recommend them to anyone wanting to climb Kili.

What a great trip! Zicasso’s tour operator and her people laid out everything so wonderfully! They were with us every step of the way. From great tours to fantastic restaurants to top-notch hotels, they planned all of it to perfection. They even had the trains planned, including the switch in Paris from one station to the other.

Zicasso’s travel agent was on the money about everything. I am normally a control freak and research everything to death, so it was tough to give over the reins. He planned it all, and I can honestly say he exceeded my expectations. The itinerary and choice of hotels was excellent. He was very responsive before and during our trip, which gave me peace of mind. We had to come home two days early and somehow our agent managed to rearrange everything last minute, creating an excellent experience. There was never pressure to do more or spend more.

Our driver was amazing. He had such a great personality, was flexible and helpful, and always on time. We learned so much from him about Berber and Moroccan culture, and Morocco in general. And he always found us good places to eat. And no, not every place has good food.

I would definitely use Zicasso’s travel company again and recommend them to everyone.

TRIP OF A LIFE TIME WITH OUR TRAVEL AGENCY TO ISRAELThis is a first rate tour company.  LeeAnn and the team took care of everything from transfers, hotels, spa requests and tour.We were matched with an outstanding guide.  He made the trip one I won't ever forget.Because of him the tours were fascinating, informative and custom tailored to our culinary, cultural interests and physical stamina level.This was truly a trip of a lifetime. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hiking through Timna Park (one of the most beautiful National Parks in the World) with this great guide at the helm, made this a memorable experience.The icing was a show they booked in Eilat called the WOW Vegas show.This was a family friendly cirque de solie show done as a theatre production. The airlines had an unforseen delay which required us to stay overnight.The travel agency arranged all the additional transfers and hotel reservations.I think this must be one of the leading private tour companies in Israel.Personally would recommend using them if you want a grand experience in Israelnot cramped with 40 plus people and truly want to enjoy the sights and sounds of Israel.

We had a fantastic time exploring Israel with our guide from the travel agency, Nathan! We learned much about Israel's rich history, culture, and people. Our agent expertly planned our trip based on our requests and interests, and each day our itinerary included interesting and thoughtful sites and tours.

We were surprised to find out that Nathan would be with us on each of our guided days since that had not been our experience on other trips. We are so glad that he was. It felt like we were traveling with an old friend who wanted us to have the best time and knew all the best places to take us to, to be sure that we did not miss them. Nathan is an excellent, knowledgeable driver and guide! He is a true Israelite, eager to share his love of Israel, its people, and its history with us. He did so in a warm and inviting manner while also giving us time to explore on our own.

The travel agency helped to arrange each facet of our trip, including our arrival and departure from Israel, which were notably efficient and greatly appreciated.
