Uganda Travel Agents & Reviews

The trip was marvelous and well planned by Zicasso’s tour operator. There were no major hiccups and all of our travel connections worked without major incident. Our itinerary included a variety of accommodations, giving us a complete African experience, and the unique experiences we had in the field will be remembered forever.

We had an incredible vacation; a real "trip of a lifetime”. Our Zicasso trip planner put together a custom itinerary for my wife, daughter, and myself that far exceeded our expectations. They thought of every little detail, making our trip comfortable, exciting, and fulfilling. We had a complex itinerary requiring multiple flights and handoffs between various partners and everything worked perfectly. They paid careful attention to our unique interests as travelers and delivered a one-of-a-kind vacation we will never forget. I will definitely recommend our tour company and Zicasso to anyone planning a trip to Africa.

We worked with Zicasso's travel partner to plan a trip around a seven-night sail in the Seychelles. After sailing, we followed the itinerary we put together with our agent to Namibia and Botswana. We had a glitch in Namibia with a scenic flight of the Skeleton Coast that did not go as planned. I made contact with our agent and over a couple of days, he forged a solution that fixed the oversight by one of his vendors.

We enjoyed the desert lodge very much. It was a first-class and beyond operation. We also really enjoyed Sossusvlei. We were not happy with our shared guided rides as we were with parents and their 11-year-old only child who ran their lives. It affected us on our tour of Sossusvlei in that we were left alone without a guide for three hours to hike Deadvlei while they unsuccessfully attempted to hike Big Daddy. The longest anyone takes to do that hike is an hour and three quarters. They only made it halfway and were gone for three hours.

We were not thrilled with the two-hour, very rugged ride from and back to the airstrip to the camp, but we did enjoy the camp very much. In hindsight, if we had known the ride would be dissatisfying, we would have likely opted for a different accommodation. This said, the private rides in the Hoanib Valley were unique and very satisfying.

We loved that as much as both of our camps in Botswana, which were in the Okavango Delta and in quite different environments. The camp was wonderful. The highlight of our trip came at our last camp in Botswana. We really enjoyed this area of the Delta in that it had a lot of water. This created a very unique guided driving experience. The safari rides were arguably the best we’ve ever done as we witnessed three warthog kills by lions. We almost witnessed a fourth, of a lechwe by a hyena.

What made this camp a cut above the rest was the food and overall culinary approach of the executive chef. He was at the top of his game. This camp also offered surprise after surprise to make us feel special – lunch in the field, a private dinner in our room, bubble bath, etc.

Our travel agent put together an incredible itinerary and trip. He too was at the top of his game!
