Italy, Switzerland Travel Review: Rome, Pizza-Making Class, Paragliding, 2 Weeks

I just wanted to take a moment to personally thank Zicasso's travel specialist for all of her hard work in planning our European adventure. We had the absolute best time and it would not have been possible without all of the attention to detail and thoughtful planning. She made the entire trip truly turnkey and seamless. All we had to do was follow the detailed itinerary our travel specialist prepared for us.

I carried two binders, one for Italy and one for Switzerland, and each day we simply pulled out that day's itinerary and enjoyed every moment without worrying about logistics.

The vendors she selected were exceptional. The skip-the-line tours in Rome were outstanding, the pizza cooking class instructor was fantastic, and the paragliding team was professional, fun, and unforgettable. Every hotel exceeded our expectations, offering wonderful accommodations and exceptional service.

Please pass along our sincere gratitude to our travel specialist. She created an unforgettable vacation for us and we are so appreciative of everything she did. We will absolutely be booking our next vacation with your team and will gladly recommend your services to family and friends.

Thank you again for making this such a memorable experience!

Overall, the trip was a huge success and we had an amazing time in Italy and Switzerland! It was also a complex trip, as we had two families, including children (nine people in total), and visited five locations over a two-week period.

The itinerary was very well organized and thoughtfully planned, and we did not experience any significant issues throughout the trip. The hotels, for the most part, were excellent and all in very good locations. The drivers were reliable and professional, and most of the guides were outstanding.

Zicasso's travel specialists were also very responsive and easy to communicate with. All in all, we felt very well supported before and during the trip.
