United Kingdom Trip Review: London, Soho, Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace, Food Tour, Afternoon Tea, 5-Day Tour

My United Kingdom trip by Zicasso's tour operator was definitely one to remember. I loved everything about this trip. From my hotel stay to the various activities planned and suggestions/recommendations for where to eat, no stones were left unturned. Our travel designer made sure I was taken care of. She was so thorough in her planning that everything went smoothly.

One of the highlights was the Soho street food tour. Just the energy alone was great. The food was amazing and the people were great. I loved the Buckingham Palace tour, the Kensington Palace tour, and afternoon tea. It was a great trip all around.

Book your next trip with this travel professional for your next UK travels. You will not regret it. I sure did not and am so happy I did!

United Kingdom Travel Review: London, Chilterns, Oxford, Rock and Roll Tour, Food Experience, Market, Art, History, 17-Day Trip

We recently booked our London trip through Zicasso’s travel company and, overall, it was a wonderful experience. The trip coordinator and our travel agent were professional, responsive, and attentive throughout the planning process. Our accommodations were perfect—comfortable, clean, and very convenient to public transportation. We loved the food tour with our guide, as well as exploring the beautiful Chilterns and Oxford with our guide. Both the theatrical dining experience and the theater show were fantastic additions to our itinerary.

Our only concerns were that the first two tours with our guide involved quite a bit of walking and didn’t allow time for leisurely shopping—had I known, I would have prepared differently (I wore boots!). The rock and roll tour focused mainly on Beatles history and the Camden Market sampling included just one vendor.

Even so, the tour operator delivered an enjoyable and memorable trip overall. Thank you!

United Kingdom Vacation Review: London, Edinburgh, Pitlochry, Highlands, Scottish Countryside, 11 Nights

Zicasso's travel designer did a great job setting everything up for our trip. Everything went smoothly and we really enjoyed it.

This was my first time in Scotland, so the recommendations were really helpful. The driver we had in Scotland was great and we really enjoyed our time with him.

The hotel in Pitlochry was wonderful and I would highly recommend it. The locations of the hotels in London and Edinburgh were great and everything at the hotels worked out well.

We really enjoyed the trip and would absolutely recommend the travel company and use them again!
