We had two couples based in the USA traveling together to South Africa. There were so many options of things to do and places to stay that we were overwhelmed. It started with a quick email and Tara responded immediately with an offer to help plan our trip. We must have gone back and forth with questions and plan modifications dozens of times. In the end, Tara managed to arrange the perfect vacation for all of us.Tara recommended Cape Town, the safari resorts near Kruger and then sent both couples to different resorts. We wanted scenery so we traveled to the hotel in White River area and our friends wanted Sun City. When flying back to the states - all 4 people decided that this was the perfect trip to South Africa for each of us and Tara made that happen.

Natalie at our travel agency orchestrated an amazing family holiday for us which included a stay at a lodge near Kruger National Park and a hotel in Cape Town. It was designed to balance our adult daughters' needs for sunbathing and my desire to be on African Safari the entire trip. And I would say Natalie nailed it. Moroever, this trip started during the time of Covid, so I believe it was postponed not once but twice. Natalie diligently canceled and rescheduled flights. She advised us on when to buy tickets and worked to balance getting us the tickets we needed with the best price. She was attentive, listened, and delivered. I'd use her again if we return to South Africa.

Neil did an awesome job curating our 2-week trip. He helped us to minimize the travel time from Cape Town to our camp in Botswana (and onward to Zimbabwe and then back into Kruger Park area in SA).  Saw all the big animals in both Botswana and SA ... guides at "and Beyond" in Okavango Delta and in the game reserve in Sabi Sand respectfully were outstanding!

If you are considering an outfitter to plan a trip to Africa, I cannot express strongly enough how much you should consider this travel agency!  I just returned from a 2-week “trip of a lifetime” safari that was originally scheduled to start one-week before the global lockdown.  My travel planner had created the most incredible trip to Tanzania to see the Serengeti and then to Rwanda to see the mountain gorillas. I was not sure how they would be able to handle the lock-down given the unknowns of travel for an unknown period of time.  The long-term nature of this travel company's relationships with their vendors coupled with the professionalism and integrity of their company resulted in the trip being rescheduled (a few times) without really any increase in costs and at the same exceptional accommodations and itinerary. The camps I stayed at were exquisite (5 star) and gave me such a personal feel of different ways to experience the Serengeti.  The personal guides in both Tanzania and Rwanda were beyond my expectations in their knowledge, passion, and dedication to supporting an exceptional client experience. Additionally, this travel company demonstrated at every step of the trip their personal commitment to ensure I felt safe and secure (given Covid concerns/requirements and unfamiliarity with the countries), and supported 24/7 with every question, no matter how small or large.   I hope to return to Africa again… and I would ONLY use this travel company.  Please consider them… and just give them a call.  From the very first contact, I knew this was the company with whom I wanted to build my trip of a lifetime adventure.

Our first Safari trip to South Africa fulfiled all of our dreams and expectations and then some. We had the trip of a lifetime and most of the credit goes to the travel team. From helping with the initial planning to making last minute changes they were fabulous. We were always made to feel very comfortable, from meeting us at every airport to assist with transport to reschedualing side trips to better meet our needs the travel team was on top of it all. We would not have had as good a trip as we did with out there help and guidence.

Our honeymoon trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar was nothing short of the best trip of my entire life. Everything about this trip was spectacular and our travel company was very helpful throughout the process. We were helped by Andre. Not only was he very helpful and enthusiastic, but he also was very responsive, especially for two people who were very stressed in the middle of wedding planning. He never waited for more than 24 hours to respond, which is fairly quick. I did not have to call him at all throughout our whole trip because it was very well planned and all the information necessary was provided prior to us going. Since I have been back, I have not stopped talking about using Zicasso to plan trips and I also have not stopped talking about going on a safari. Overall, if you have the money to spend and are off from work in early February....GO TO THE SERENGETI! It's a once in a lifetime experience. Our private driver was absolutely amazing! So experienced and he took care of us very well.Zanzibar was amazing! We stayed at a resort (probably the best resort on the island). We were in paradise! Food was great in Tanzania and Zanzibar!Again, best trip of our lives!

The travel agency knocked this one out of the universe! This was our first trip to South Africa, and we had high expectations for our journey. On every turn, our expectations were exceeded with the highest quality, professionalism, and efficiency. Every need was anticipated that we hadn’t even considered. On the few occasions where we encountered difficulties, we reached out to our primary contact, and she responded out of nowhere with a steady solution each time, day or night. Our accommodations were plush and comfortable, the hotel staff we encountered were friendly and supportive, the transportation service was deluxe and reliable, and the airport handlers were helpful and efficient. The food and beverage service was top notch. We lacked for nothing. We felt like royalty throughout our travels to four destinations. We asked for a high-end experience, and that’s exactly what we received: luxurious accommodations, superior service, extraordinary amenities. No one does it better than this travel company! Danni and the team ROCK!!

Dan and Mandy from the travel agency are absolutely incredible to work with. We reached out for help planning our honeymoon. We didn't reach out in the most timely fashion and were incredibly stressed with wedding planning when we did. I had 1 conversation with Dan and that was all he needed to put together our absolute dream honeymoon. He somehow read my mind in ~20 minutes, made us feel incredibly comfortable traveling to a part of the world we had never been and immediately put us at ease that we were in good hands. Dan and Mandy helped us with every single step to make sure we were prepared for the trip so we could simply relax and enjoy it. They answered multiple rounds of questions and were flexible while providing their input as we finalized the details of our trip. Every detail was handled while we were on our trip and it felt like we had really good friends (with incredible taste in travel that we look up to) on the journey with us. We cannot recommend using the travel team to book your trip enough - these guys will be dealing with us for decades to come.

This was our first safari and the days are grueling but truly exhilarating. We created memories that will last a lifetime and we cannot wait to go back to Africa again, and all of this is thanks to Neil and his team. We booked our trip very last minute and it was by chance that we found Neil and the travel agency. From the get-go, Neil was incredibly responsive via email and created an itinerary that not only hit everything we wanted to see, but also took advantage of his deep knowledge of Botswana and the surrounding areas. The result of his care + precision was a truly memorable trip where we saw not only animals on safari drives at a sometimes alarmingly close distance, but also had the opportunity to meet really amazing people along the way too. We 100% recommend you call Neil and his team today!

Our family of four had an amazing adventure in Botswana thanks to the team at Zicasso and this travel company. We stayed 9 nights at 3 different camps and it was the perfect arrangement for us. The travel company has a lot of first-hand experience in Botswana and gave us valuable advice about where to stay and what to do. As a result, all the lodgings were fantastic, the activities were fun and memorable, and the many transfers were seamless.

Can I give 10 stars?  This is a sterling travel company. I can’t praise Kirsty enough.  She went out of her way too accommodate our requirements and ensure an absolutely amazing trip.  I highly recommend the sort of plan she put together for us. We started at a safari camp in Chobe National Park, then to another in Nxaragha Island, to other camps near Xakanaxa Lagoon and near Boteti River.  This ensured we had a complete experience of all that Botswana had to offer.  I would say the first two are a must and would suggest more than just a day or two each (we spent 4 nights at the one in Chobe National Park and 3 nights at the camp in Nxaragha Island).The entire trip was so smoothly run and the camps so high in quality that it was a thoroughly enjoyable trip from start to finish.  Thank you Kirsty!

I worked with Andre from our travel agency for my trip.  We were two Moms with three college graduating kids ( 3 young adults).  Our trip went to South Africa for 3 days and Botswana for 9 days.  The trip was amazing and Andre did a great job of working with me to coordinate everything.  Our trip was originally planned to happen during the Covid lockdowns and we had to cancel the entire trip and reschedule it again two years later once everyone got their schedules organized, Andre did a great job of handling everything.  I would use him again for a trip and I don't hesitate to recommend him.  My son called yesterday and asked when we were going back to Africa, a sure sign of a successful trip.

We met the most friendly, passionate, and welcoming people throughout Africa while traveling in South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Botswana. We were able to observe the big five and a significant number of other animals in their natural habitats. Traveling through the various countries and passport control can be intimidating, but overall fairly easy depending on how you are traveling (air or land).This is a good travel company and all our transfers were available as coordinated. One issue that could have been communicated better is the camp accommodations. A sail tent is nice if you understand that they get very hot during the day and some camps we stayed at did not have A/C or the A/C was only available for a 2-hour period. In addition, one camp had no wi-fi or cell service. If this is what you what, then no issue. However, it was unexpected.

Our African Safari finally happened after being postponed from January 2020. This was our first time using Zicasso and we are overwhelmed what an extraordinary travel specialist Natalie from this travel company is. Although we have travelled extensively in the past, this was our first safari. Prior to leaving we did have a few concerns regarding unknowns of a Safari experience. Natalie was knowledgable, patient, responsive and assuring. Natalie followed up and stayed in touch over the time it took for us to finally take our trip, she listened to our concerns, needs and requirements, and met each and every one of them. She organized this amazing memorable and luxurious Safari experience with fantastic guides and accommodations. We toured from Johannesburg to African Safari in Botswana to Victoria Falls to South African Safari's and to beautiful Cape Town. Our African Safari experience exceeded our expectations. We will cherish this trip and look forward to visiting again. We are left with lots of good memories.Thank you Natalie for this exceptional first time Safari experience!

  Our trip was seamless!  From the time that we left Johannesburg heading for the lodge in Chobe River, Botswana there was always someone right there to pick us up and deliver us to the right place. It made the trip so easy, allowing us to just enjoy the accommodations, the scenery and the game drives. We were promptly notified when there were adjustments to the transportation schedule and so we were never concerned or anxious. The only slight misunderstanding was at the hotel in Tambo airport when we checked in. The reservation was made under Betsy (which I go by all the time) but my passport shows only my formal name, Elizabeth. Although my last name is very unusual, the reception staff was only focused on my first name and thought we did not have a reservation. The manager straightened out that problem.  The lodge in Chobe River is gorgeous and we lacked for nothing. The tent camps were also extremely well done.  The staffs were wonderful and totally accommodating. Everyone, everywhere was so pleasant and the guides were fantastic. They know their stuff and they became our best friends. Overall the hospitality shown throughout our trip was nothing short of perfect.We chose to go during the rainy season and so we expected some weather inconvenience. Remarkably, the little rain that we got did not interfere with any activity. In fact, we got a bonus because of the downpours at the camp in Central Kalahari prior to our arrival. The runway was flooded and so we took a helicopter to the camp. That was so much fun!We thought the food was much better than we anticipated. Sure there were a few things that we did not care for, but 90% of the selections were excellent.  With three substantial meals along with coffee breaks on the game drives and tea at 3:30, my husband and I returned to the US heavier than we left! In summary, we could  not be happier!!

We started planning our African safari in July 2019 with stops in Johannesburg, Victoria Fall, Safari's in Botswana and 4 days at the end on Cape Town. After working with 2 companies referred by Zicasso, we decided to move forward with this travel agency. Sara and the travel team were fantastic to work with. After finalizing customized itinerary for our "July 2020" safari, we had to regroup due to Covid and travel concerns. Sara worked with us to postpone the trip to July 2022 and made sure that all of our deposits were protected. We regrouped in September 2021 and worked with Sara to fine tune the itinerary and travel dates. Throughout the planning, Sara and her staff were always available to answer our questions and make pivot with us as needed. When an internal airline went bankrupt, Sara was on top of it and made sure that alternative flights were arranged. When we needed to change our original hotel in Cape Town due to renovations, Sara got us rooms at another hotel (which was amazing). A week before our scheduled departure, Sara discovered that the jeep safari would not be available at one of the lodges due to high waters in the Okavango Delta. In 24-hours, she worked with us to rearrange our schedule to add an alternate lodge on the Botetit River where jeep safari's were available. The 3 lodges were fantastic and our guides were amazing. Our tours in South Africa were first class with great guides. We would definitely recommend that you use Sara and our travel company if you are planning a trip to Africa.

We just returned from an amazing trip to Africa and it was due to the excellent job that Kirsty did in putting it together.  We had checked out a few different options during the planning stage and found that Kirsty "got us" very quickly.  She thoroughly knows the continent and frequently suggested options that were above the more "typical" itinerary.  She knows the hotels and areas thoroughly and could compare her suggestion to the ones other travel groups used.  Kirsty listens really well and nicely offered her perspective on things that were not ideal or wouldn't work that we found through google searches.  Our end result was a perfect itinerary.   She packed in everything we wanted within our time frame and our budget.  And we didn't feel that we sacrificed anything.  At each place that we went, the accommodations were over the top luxury and we were treated really well.  We also asked Kirsty to ensure that we were not on our as we worked our way through the various countries.  We really want our hand held and she set this up perfectly.  Every guide, greeter, and transporter was there waiting for us.  They knew our agenda and had all our tickets in hand.  Every guide was fantastic and willing to be flexible to our needs and requests.  Throughout the planning process Kirsty was very responsive and patient with all our questions.  She also was accessible while we away when we had a question.  This is a big trip and Kirsty made it an excellent experience for us.
