Milos Vacations & Tours

We booked a 2 week vacation to Greece with this agent and travel company for the end of May.   Our travel agent helped us plan the perfect vacation for our 25th wedding anniversary. It was the most incredible trip, more than we could ever have imagined! She planned accommodations, excursions and tours at each place we visited that highlighted each place.  We started our trip in Athens for 3 nights, Crete 3 nights, Mykonos 3 nights and Santorini for 4 nights.

We were met promptly at the Athens airport by our driver taken to our Hotel in Athens where we were met by our agent personally to give us all of our tickets and instructions for our stay in Greece. As well she gave us a cell phone programmed with her number and the travel agency in case we had any issues during our time in Greece.

We stayed at the foot of the Acropolis in Athens at a wonderful boutique hotel. Our trip started with a private tour(highly recommend)  of the Archeological museum of Athens ,the Acropolis and the area surrounding. Truly specials and unforgettable! A romantic dinner at a beautiful restaurant in the center of Athens.  Watching the sun set on the Acropolis with all of Athens at our feet...stunning. A free day to explore a bit of the ancient and beautiful city then onto Crete.

We were met by a delightful young man, who was our guide for all 3 days on this amazing island. Wine tours, Palace of King Mynos at Knossos, ancient cities Rhethmynon and Chania, beautiful beaches and stunning views. We fell in love with Crete.

Then Mykonos. A beautiful little jewel of an island with beautiful beaches and ancient cities once attacked by pirates. A romantic dinner, tour of the island of Delos (incredible!) and getting lost in the maze of streets that make up Mykonos town.

Then onto Santorini. A jewel in the beauty of the Aegean Sea. Stunning hotel on the cliffs with a view that you never tired of, wine tours, a full day Catamaran sail to beaches and the Caldera ending with a magnificent sunset at Land's End. Santorini was the cherry on top of the trip. Truly a stunning island.

And everywhere we went the friendly, hospitable and welcoming Greek people.  We can't say enough on how well orchestrated this trip was. We had flawless connections, over-the-top accommodations, incredible guides, amazing excursions that did not disappoint at any of our island visits.  "More than we could have ever imagined" is how we describe this trip to friends and family.  We highly recommend this company and the travel agent who planned a trip exactly to fit us personally.

Thank you Zicasso for your stellar travel agents and fantastic job of Jackie who paired us up with such great agents to choose from.

Thodoris provided us with an amazing trip to Greece. After a conversation about what we wanted to do and see, he planned everything for us and took care of all of the details for our entire trip. We started out in Athens where we spent four days at a wonderful boutique hotel in the heart of Athens. Thodoris met us and made sure all of our needs were met. He arranged an amazing private tour of the acropolis and the Acropolis Museum. Kiki, our tour guide, was incredible and a great source of information and geared the tour to our interests. Our second tour, to Delphi, was also amazing with Penny as another very knowledgeable and interesting tour guide. All of our pick-ups and deliveries, from the airport to the hotel, each tour, and from the hotel to the airport were provided with no issues or delays. We also had plenty of time to explore Athens on our own, which is what we requested. It was a truly wonderful experience. 

We left Athens and went to Chania, on Crete. There we stayed at another adorable boutique hotel with amazing customer service. Thodoris arranged a tour of the traditional villages of Chania where a true local, Dometri (sp?) showed around his villages. You could tell that he knew and loved the area very much. We also had plenty of time to explore Chania on our own. After three nights, Dometri drove us to Knossos. George was our tour guide at Knossos and he was also wonderful. The crowds were a little heavy, so George offered to wait until later in the day to tour the museum, since the line was around the block, which we took him up on and we went on our own to get lunch and when we went to the museum later in the day, the crowd was much improved. Knossos was just outside Heraklion and the museum was within walking distance to the hotel. We then caught the high-speed ferry to Mykonos the next morning.

On Mykonos, we stayed at another beautiful hotel. We had a day trip to see Delos, the birthplace of Apollo and Artimus lead by another excellent tour guide. We had plenty of time to explore, relax and enjoy the Spa at Petasos! Then it was on to Santorini for the grand finale. We stayed in Oia at a spectacular place overlooking the Caldera. We had an amazing wine tour with Steve as our very energetic and entertaining guide. We were not sure we really wanted to do this tour, but it was one of our favorites and we got to see three wineries in different parts of the island. The last stop provided dinner with paired wines and our first incredible sunset view. We then had a free day on Santorini and ended our trip the next day with an incredible sunset cruise which took us to the red beach, the black beach, and the white beach with opportunities to swim and experience the warm springs. Another wonderful meal on the catamaran followed by an amazing view of the sunset on the water. 

Thodoris took care of every detail and we did not have to worry about anything other than enjoying ourselves. All transfers and pick-ups were from our hotel and everyone was right on time and very professionally handled. We were free to totally enjoy ourselves and was a completely stress-free vacation.  I would highly recommend Thodoris and his travel company to plan a once-in-a-lifetime trip. I hope that we will have an opportunity to use them again on another trip.

My husband and I recently embarked on an unforgettable journey to Greece, exploring the breathtaking islands of Crete, Santorini, and Naxos, and the vibrant city of Athens. Our trip was meticulously planned and executed by Zicasso’s exceptional team, who went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. From the moment we set foot in Greece until the day we reluctantly departed, they were with us every step of the way, turning our vacation into the memory of a lifetime.

Chania, Crete: Our adventure began in Chania, Crete, where we stayed at a luxurious hotel and spa. This boutique hotel, situated right on the waterfront, offered stunning views and impeccable service. The highlight of our stay in Crete was a delightful cooking class, where we learned to prepare traditional Cretan dishes with fresh, local ingredients. The warmth and hospitality of the staff at the hotel made us feel right at home.

Santorini: Next, we traveled to the iconic island of Santorini. Our hotel was nestled on the cliffs overlooking the caldera and provided an idyllic setting for our vacation. One of the most memorable experiences was the catamaran sunset cruise, on which we sailed around the island, marveling at the stunning volcanic landscape and enjoying a delicious onboard dinner as the sun set over the Aegean Sea. The hotel staff ensured every moment was magical. The hotel concierge kept in touch with us via WhatsApp. She was amazing!!!!

Naxos: Our journey continued to the charming island of Naxos. The hotel’s blend of traditional architecture and modern amenities provided a comfortable and stylish retreat. Our travel agency organized a fantastic Naxos town food tour, allowing us to savor the island’s culinary delights and learn about its rich history. We also embarked on a private village tour, exploring the quaint villages and experiencing the authentic Naxian way of life. The hospitality at the hotel was exceptional, making our stay truly memorable.

Athens: Our final destination was the bustling city of Athens. Located in the heart of the city, our luxurious hotel offered stunning views of the Acropolis and easy access to Athens’ historical sites. The staff went out of their way to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable.

Outstanding Service: The personal touches provided by Zicasso’s travel agency truly set them apart. During the planning phase, I had the pleasure of speaking with the founder and lead travel designer. He took the time to understand our expectations and preferences, recommending Naxos instead of Mykonos based on our interest in food tours, culture, and history. Trusting his advice was one of the best decisions we made, as Naxos turned out to be one of our favorite islands.

His company’s commitment to our satisfaction was evident from the moment we landed in Athens, where we were greeted by an agent, with a lovely gift, who walked us to our gate for the flight to Chania. Throughout our trip, we communicated via WhatsApp, receiving daily messages with our boarding passes and itinerary. Their professionalism shone through when unexpected situations arose, such as a five-hour ferry delay in Crete. They reassured us continuously, adjusting our schedule as needed without any hassle.

When my luggage was lost on the flight from Naxos to Athens, the company promptly contacted the airline and ensured my luggage was delivered to our hotel in Athens. Their proactive and attentive service made all the difference.

Each hotel provided us with sumptuous breakfasts, a feast for the eyes and the palate, prepared by amazing chefs. The food throughout our trip was memorable and the hospitality at every location was outstanding.

Every trip I take from now on will be compared to this bucket-list vacation that Zicasso’s company planned for us. I would not hesitate to use them the next time I visit Greece, knowing it will be another dream trip.

Final Thoughts: The travel agency turned our Greek vacation into a seamless, extraordinary experience. Their attention to detail, personalized service, and commitment to excellence made our trip a true dream. If you’re planning a trip to Greece, I highly recommend them – they create memories that last a lifetime.
