East Africa Travel Guide

Trip was well organized by Zicasso’s travel specialist and her team. Support in Kenya with my missing luggage was outstanding. Safari tours, city tours, and the respective accommodations more than met our expectations.

We loved everything about the trip! It was definitely a five-star experience! Zicasso’s travel specialist was wonderful. We had to cancel the original trip due to my health, but she was able to work with the travel companies, so we lost less money than we might have. She is very responsive and patient with questions. Her team was able to track down my visa to Tanzania when the other three had already received theirs!

Our Africa adventure, booked through Zicasso’s travel specialist, was amazing, flawless, and a one-of-a-kind trip of a lifetime.

Zicasso’s travel company planned an amazing itinerary that fit all of our family’s needs. They were responsive to any changes we wanted to make ahead of time and to any questions we had. We were seamlessly cared for from the moment we landed in Kenya.

As you know, we had difficulty deciding between Zicasso's travel specialists for this trip.

As it turned out, the specialist we went with and his team did an exceptional job planning and executing all the details necessary for a memorable trip for me and my family.

I really appreciated how detail-oriented he was and how responsive he was to inquiries pre-trip and, when necessary, during the trip.

He deserves the highest recommendation from the experienced travelers that we are.

The best trip ever—Zicasso’s tour company made it unforgettable!

From start to finish, our experience with this travel company was nothing short of exceptional. We booked a once-in-a-lifetime adventure to Uganda and Kenya, with the highlights being gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and safari game drives across the vast savannas of Kenya. This travel company exceeded every expectation we had.

Pre-Trip Planning and Communication

The travel company stood out right away with their responsiveness and attention to detail. Every question was answered quickly and thoughtfully, and the itinerary was crafted to match exactly what we hoped for—an authentic, adventurous journey with comfort, safety, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. We always felt well taken care of, even before the trip began.

Uganda–Gorilla Trekking

The highlight in Uganda—and of our trip—was, without a doubt, the trek to see the mountain gorillas. Our guides and trackers were extraordinary, making sure we were prepared and knew what to expect. The moment we found ourselves just feet away from a gorilla family in the wild was beyond words—humbling, emotional, and unforgettable.

The travel company chose excellent accommodations, blending comfort with proximity to the parks.

Kenya–Safari Adventures

In Kenya, we explored some of the most iconic safari landscapes. Our guides were not only skilled drivers, but also walking encyclopedias of wildlife knowledge. We were lucky to witness elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, leopards, and even the elusive cheetah—all up close, with plenty of time to observe and take it all in.

The safari camps were beautiful and thoughtfully chosen, offering amazing food, warm hospitality, and the perfect balance between comfort and adventure.

Guides and Team

The travel company’s team truly elevated this trip. Every guide we met was passionate, friendly, and dedicated to making sure we had the best possible experience. We felt safe and cared for every step of the way, and their expertise allowed us to see and learn so much more than we could have imagined.

Overall Experience

This trip exceeded every expectation. It wasn’t just a vacation; it was an adventure that touched us deeply and left us with memories we will cherish forever. This travel company’s professionalism, personal touch, and deep knowledge of East Africa made all the difference.

If you are considering a safari or gorilla-trekking experience, we wholeheartedly recommend this travel company. They deliver not just a trip, but a truly life-changing journey.
