The trip met or exceeded all of our expectations. Zicasso’s travel company was a pleasure to work with. Their knowledge of Africa was invaluable. They were responsive to all our questions and steered us in the right direction whenever we were uncertain. We would recommend their services to anyone who wants to have the perfect African adventure.

Five stars plus!! We interviewed various consultants about this “trip of a lifetime” and landed on Zicasso’s travel specialist. We'd never used a consultant to schedule travel before, so it was a new experience to us. Oh my gosh. Every single detail was meticulous. The camps she recommended, the amazing staff at each place, the spot-on transport in between, the “bush” flights, the overnight hotel in Vic Falls, everything was beyond amazing. Perfect. We literally could not be happier.
And then there was the actual “safari” part of it all. Our guides and trackers were exceptional, the wildlife viewing was phenomenal. The meals were excellent. Can you tell I'm raving? And wanting a re-do?! I would highly recommend the travel specialist, our travel concierge, and this travel company to anyone!! Truly a trip of a lifetime. Thank you!

I sort of pivoted with what we wanted Zicasso’s travel specialist to arrange for us and she handled that change very well. We essentially asked her just to handle the safari part of our trip and sought her input on some other itinerary decisions we had made. She gave us great guidance and, ultimately, we loved the safari lodge she selected.
