Iceland Travel Review: Glacier Lagoon Tour, Icebergs, 2...

Zicasso's tour planner designed an amazing two-week trip for us to Iceland. She was wonderful to work with. Every detail was precisely planned and communication was prompt and helpful. We would highly recommend her and the agency for any travel to the north. If we head in that direction again, we will certainly use her.

Iceland Tour Review: Reykjavik, Vatnajokull National Park,...

Iceland did not disappoint! From our arrival in Reykjavík to our final day at the Blue Lagoon, every moment was nothing short of magical.

A huge thank you to Zicasso’s travel consultant at the travel company for creating an amazing itinerary filled with the best Iceland has to offer. Highlights included exploring inside a volcano, marveling at Geysir Park, a full day in Vatnajökull National Park, the breathtaking glacier lagoon, the black-sand Diamond Beach, and the unforgettable waterfalls at Skógafoss and Seljalandsfoss.

We ended the trip perfectly with a relaxing soak at the Blue Lagoon—an ideal way to close out an incredible adventure.

Finally, a special thank-you to our guide. This trip would not have been the same without you! The hidden gems and personal touches you added turned a great trip into the experience of a lifetime.

Iceland Travel Review: Reykjavik, Golden Circle, Snaefellsnes...

Working with Zicasso’s travel designer was incredibly seamless and enjoyable. He created an impeccable nine-day trip to Iceland that allowed me to see different sections of the island each day. From Reykjavík to the Golden Circle to the Snaefellsnes Peninsula to the Silver and Diamond Circles, I covered a lot of ground by renting a car and driving myself.

I really appreciated how responsive, fast, and thoughtful this travel designer was in planning the trip with a quick turnaround i.e., I only booked the trip a month ahead of my scheduled travel. He also checked in throughout the trip to make sure things were going well and helped me immediately rebook a whale watching-tour that was canceled on my first day due to weather. Having everything booked through him made it really easy for me, knowing it was all taken care of. All I had to do was show up.

I highly recommend Iceland as a destination, especially if you enjoy outdoor adventures, hiking, and exploring natural wonders—it's a magical place. I also recommend booking a trip through Zicasso’s travel partner. As a local Icelandic company, it's an excellent resource to guarantee a great experience!

Iceland Father-Son Tour Review: 10 Days

Our experience with Zicasso and the travel partner was outstanding. From the time we started planning the trip to the very end, it was like having a personal travel coordinator. He took the information about what we wanted to do on the trip and put together an itinerary that was exactly what we were looking for over the course of 10 days.

Each hotel we stayed at was unique, which was fun, considering they all met or exceeded our expectations. The best part of the travel agent planning our trip was the daily recommended schedule. We were covering a lot of ground each day, given we were doing the full Ring Road tour. Despite that, it often felt the trip was planned precisely down to the minute, meaning we never felt rushed or "behind" our daily plan. The suggested points of interest or recommended stops came with great detail and allowed us to go into each day knowing what we wanted to do. Each day also came with recommended places to eat, tips, etc.

I was really impressed on a day when the weather impacted one of our excursions. Our travel agent called almost immediately to verify we had seen that the weather had impacted it and then offered to coordinate a replacement excursion. We ended up deciding not to do a replacement excursion, so he coordinated a refund for the event that was cancelled. There was no hassle at all and it allowed us to just focus on the amazing trip. We have already determined that we are coming back to Iceland and I have recommended to everyone I have talked to about the trip that they use Zicasso and specifically our travel agent.

This trip was a graduation/off-to-college trip and gift for my son, and a way to spend 10 days together before he went off to college. Both of us said it was the best vacation we have had. It was a terrific bonding experience and a lot of that had to do with how well curated the trip was by our travel agent. Thank you, and we look forward to working with you again soon!
