The trip was fantastic and our support from Zicasso's travel company was excellent. In hindsight, more time would have been great, but our agent made the most of our available time. Our arrangements, accommodations, and excursions were all quality. Our agent was always available and did helpful check-ins with us. I would recommend our trip and our agency.

Norway, Sweden, Denmark Trip Review: Oslo, Flam, Bergen, Alesund, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Vigeland Park, RIB Boat Ride, Geirangerfjord, Naeroyfjord, Mt. Floyen, 3 Weeks

Zicasso’s travel specialist was excellent. She knows Scandinavia extremely well and offers great advice on where to stay, what to do, sights to see, and restaurants. She provided detailed directions during the trip and followed up frequently, asking for our feedback as we checked into new cities. If we had a question, her response time was almost immediate, no matter the time of day. It was very comforting.

We stayed in Oslo, Flåm, Bergen, Ålesund, Stockholm, and Copenhagen. The travel specialist's hotel suggestions were very centrally located for ease of walking and high quality. One of our couples had a hotel issue in Flåm; she was on it immediately, which was very impressive.

Denmark, Norway, Sweden Vacation Review: History, Culture, Guides, 20 Nights

Zicasso’s travel specialist did an outstanding job of coordinating all of our travel. She booked us great hotels, close to city centers, museums, parks, etc. We were able to walk to great restaurants, enjoy the local atmosphere, and just have fun. She also set us up with great tour guides in each city. They were very knowledgeable and shared their knowledge of their country with us. We love to learn about the history and culture wherever we travel, and the guides did an outstanding job.

The travel specialist also provided an excellent list of restaurants to try in each city we visited. They were all great.

One of the best things we liked was the way that our travel specialist set up our visit to each country. Usually, the first day was a city tour with a guide to get to know the city and the history. The second day was a countryside tour away from the city to allow us to get a better feel and understanding of the history and also the countryside. The last day or so would be a light schedule so we could explore the city on our own, which worked great since we already knew the details of the city.

Also, the transportation our travel specialist set up for us was outstanding! From the limousine service to our train tickets, ferry tickets, plane tickets, etc., that made the trip extremely easy to navigate!

She also communicated with us throughout the trip to make sure that everything was going according to schedule, which was great.

Without a doubt, our travel specialist is an outstanding travel partner and I think she would certainly be at the top of your list of travel partners. She provided exceptional service and experiences, which made our trip a memorable one.

Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway Travel Review: Bergen, Oslo, 2 Weeks

Our 16-day trip to Scandinavia was fantastic! It was planned and "supervised" by Zicasso’s travel specialist. Our travel specialist was meticulous with her planning, follow-up skills, and communication. Every single detail was handled immediately, thoroughly, and seamlessly. You really couldn't ask for anything more. She was pleasant and totally available. We recommend her without reservation.
