South Africa Vacation Review: 2 Weeks

I could not have imagined a better trip than the one we had with Zicasso’s travel designer's help! She was very responsive to what we wanted to get out of the adventure and had a lot of great ideas. Besides being incredibly attentive, she made me feel very comfortable with all our decisions for a place that I had never been to and did not know much about. Thank you for making our trip so organized and fun!

South Africa Tour Review: Cape Town, Nature Reserves, Wildlife, Game Drives, 11 Nights

The trip was extraordinary, amazing, and perfect in every way! Every aspect of the trip Zicasso’s travel agent planned for us was perfectly executed.

Our drivers were punctual and professional.

The hotel in Cape Town was lovely and the staff were so attentive. The staff at the nature reserve made everyone feel like part of the family.

We saw the Big Five within the first two days there! Super-fun!

The Cessna Caravan flight between lodges enabled us to see the African savannah and bush from the air, which was so beautiful.

The lodge in Sabi Sand Game Reserve was elegant and the staff were so attentive, meeting our every need and anticipating our every wish!

We had some excellent surprises, such as a full breakfast in the bush.

Our trackers and our rangers were truly wonderful and knowledgeable, and made the experience delightful.

Other travelers at the lodges were so friendly.

It was a trip of a lifetime... though we may have to go back again!

South Africa, Botswana Travel Review: Cape Town, Franschhoek, Victoria Falls, Okavango Delta, Safari, Big Five, Wineries, 15 Nights

From our initial conversation to finalizing the itinerary and final preparations, Zicasso’s travel consultants have been fantastic to work with. They kept in contact with us during our trip to ensure everything was to our liking, including the last-minute scheduling of car transport when one of our bush planes was canceled due to low clouds.

As for the itinerary and the hotel/lodge/safari recommendations, all were exceptional and offered something different to experience. Our entire trip, from start to finish, was exceptional, with great locations, great safari experiences, and wonderful food.
