Spain Vacations in March

The travel agency (Jordi and the team) deserves 5 Stars + for the itinerary and experience they provided for our 10 day trip to Southern Spain last month. Starting with the itinerary / planning last Fall through the execution with their hotels / guides / drives / excursions when we landed in Granada, it made for an amazing, luxurious, informative, and stress free vacation.We wanted to visit the Alhambra while in Granada but were open to suggestions for the remainder of our trip. Jorde put together experiences we never knew of - Medina Zahara (Cordoba), the White Villages, Bullring / Arab Bath Tours in Ronda, a Bull Breeding Finca (farm) and Sherry tasting in Jerez. The guides for each of these excursions were personable and knowledgeable ( each one was 5 Star). Our most unexpected experience and maybe our most memorable was the cooking class in Seville. It's a highlight we can't stop talking about ... incredible!!The team was phenomenal in making hotel arrangements, dinner reservations, keeping us updated everyday of our guides names / phone numbers and answered any questions promptly ... we felt they were with us each day even though he was in his office in Barcelona.    Gracias Jordi and the team for a wonderful trip !!!

Our daughter Sophie had been studying abroad since January in Seville, Spain. We needed to plan a family trip to see where she was living and enjoy her experiences there. We live in Minneapolis, Minnesota and had no idea where to even begin with our adventures in Spain!  So, I went online and through many reviews of travel agencies, I found Zicasso to have great reviews. Once we decided on a really good fit with Rosa from the travel agency who teams up with Zicasso for the region you are visiting. We flew out to join our daughter mid-May. ( we booked everything with our Guide Rosa about 6.5 months ahead of time) She sent us an App called UnMapped and we had full itinerary, contact names, phone numbers of drivers, tour guides, our main contact email and text through What's App. So I never felt lost or misguided. They took care of us from the moment we got off the airplane in Madrid, to a speed train to Seville, daily tours and guides and then finally our driver to pick us up and get us to the Malaga airport.  With 6 people in our party, this made things so easy so we could simply enjoy our time together on a family vacation in Spain. We had an awesome journey to the southern beauty of Spain's Andalucia region. Cities include Seville, Ronda, Mijas, Malaga, Marbella, Granada & a layover in Portugal's Lisbon. We used Zicasso - a travel agency with Rosa. I highly recommend this company. So many ways we enjoyed the vibe of Spain- from guided walking city tours, Tapas & Flamenco, wine tasting at a Vineyard ( the Flamenco museum and show was absolutely stunning!) A visit to the moorish cultural palace & fortress Alhambra in Granada, variety of cathedrals, Picasso museum, the Royal Alcazar Castle in Seville and a winery visit to Chinchilla in the rolling hills of Ronda. Sophia our daughter even surprised us with a special boat cruise on the Guadalquivir River in Seville with a champagne toast! Our feet are tired and hearts are full! What an adventure! Don't stumble around when you take a trip- hire a Guide to do it right! Bravo to Rosa and her entire team that Guided us- drivers included- were phenomenal!!!  5 plus Stars!!! 

 What a grand adventure we had on this travel company's Classical Tour Andalucia and Madrid.The accommodations were comfortable ,charming and convenient. All the guides were knowledgeable and passionate about their history and city sites. Details concerning travel and transfers were easy because our travel planner had arranged all and explained thoroughly in printed itinerary. We had tickets provided to shows and museums and venues or guides provided them. Delicious tapas breaks most afternoons in lovely spots. Tinta verano blanco and vermut were happy discoveries.Loved seeing the Alhambra, Mesquite  and patios in Cordoba, Sevilla was fascinating. Ronda and White villages views were breath taking.
