Zicasso's trip planner worked with my family for the better part of a year planning our big family trip. She provided exceptional service and planned every detail of our trip. We have a large family, with lots of moving parts. There were many changes in the itinerary along the way and she rolled with all the many changes. She was always polite, courteous, and graceful in her many interactions with our family.

She listened carefully during our initial conversations to help us plan the best trip possible. Being a large family, with multiple generations, she really created the best possible experience, taking in everyone's wishes. Working with her was very relieving, knowing she was taking care of all the details.

Our family's trip took us from the States to Ireland, Scotland, and England. We traveled on planes, trains, ferry, and drove a car. Our trip planner arranged every detail meticulously. We stayed in lovely, quaint, boutique hotels, ate the most wonderful foods, saw the amazing sights, and UNESCO World Heritage Sites across all three countries. From the Cliffs of Moher to the Culloden Moor Memorial to Stonehenge to castles grand and desolate; from beautiful cathedrals to old abbey ruins; from little country pubs to Michelin-starred restaurants; and even spending a couple days in an actual 17th-century castle, every minute was amazing! Truly amazing!

Our trip was fantastic. Zicasso's travel specialist and the team at her company met with us and mapped out a travel plan that met our family's desires and helped us craft a trip for us and our two children (ages 13 and six).

They were receptive to our needs and wants in the planning process, as well as quick and responsive when changes needed to be made mid-trip. The hotels and accommodations booked were top-notch. The activities were easy and seamless with ticketing and updating of our road-book for each day.

Our Zicasso trip planner was outstanding! From the very beginning, she grasped our intent for this trip: a personal ancestry or genealogy focus, not a typical tourist or vacation trip. She adopted our goals, our hopes for discovery, and our needs, and developed "Pat and Pam's English Ancestry Adventure".

She went beyond our expectations in researching and setting up bespoke guided days with two museum directors in our areas of interest; arranged a fantastic guide in London for a half-day, personalized tour of Hampstead; and set up a meeting with the head verger at St Bartholomew the Great church in London, where we received amazing insights and details about two of our ancestors from the 1500s. And her logistics for our trip worked out flawlessly. She was always responsive to our questions and needs, she always had a great attitude, and was just a pleasure to work with!

I needed help planning a trip for myself and my 16-year old grandson. I wanted to see some of the familiar attractions in London and to prevent my young traveling companion from getting bored, but at the same time, I wanted also to take a short bicycle trip through the English countryside on e-bikes. I could tell that the Zicasso travel company put a lot of effort into designing a unique trip that met our needs. And we had a wonderful time.

Zicasso's tour operator planned a wonderful, well-organized, and unforgettable trip for my husband and me to England. This was our first, and likely only, visit to England. I asked the trip expert what places one should absolutely see if you are only ever going to visit England once and he planned a trip for us around that question. I left our itinerary largely to his discretion and I definitely feel like he planned a well-rounded trip that hit the highlights. I highly recommend working with the company.
