Kimkim Trip Reviews

Amazing expereince in the Wadi Rum desert at this unique luxury camp. It's a once in a lifetime experience.

Jeane was very accommodating. She got us settled in early and we really appreciated it after a day of travel. Our rooms were clean and the breakfasts were cooked to perfection. The coffee machine was finicky but she got it fixed. Little ways from town, but the walk (30+ min) was nice along the the river (water). One of our group enjoyed the hot tub.

Great place to stay. Very clean and the sheets and towels were so nice. Loved the breakfast!

Great hotel! Very clean and felt high end. Breakfasts were fantastic!

Really quaint hotel. Loved our room, especially the chandelier. Good breakfasts. Easy to catch a bus to all the sites. Very convenient.

LOVED IT!! It is a newer property and you can tell. Everything about it was perfection - our two bedroom room with a pool was amazing. The entire place was perfectly decorated and it was small and just perfect. Not teaming with lots of people. Only 8 villas. The staff and owners are super engaging and clearly want you to fall in love with it - which you absolutely will! You must stay here! And a huge shout out to Walter and Roen - the best tracker and guide we could’ve had. What we saw the animals doing and how close we got - nothing short of life changing!

WHAT A GEM!! It’s hard to even describe how amazing this place was. An old plantation converted into incredible accommodations and a fantastic restaurant. The property as well as the rooms were stunning! Working fireplaces and patios look out onto a pool that looked like it was out of another world. Beautiful flower gardens and chickens. It was so incredible charming. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

The staff were fantastic! Breakfast each morning was so amazing. The location and views were incredible - especially when the skies cleared and we were looking at table mountain and the ocean. Doesn’t get much better than that! The layout of the hotel is a bit off and disjointed but it was nice and the rooms were well appointed and super nice shower.

What an unforgettable experience. Truly a treat and one of a kind experience. Nicki is super gifted and loves to show off her beautiful home, gardens and food with you. The tasting menu was sooo good and it was also very generous portions. She has amazing stories to regale you with. She had a super interesting life so it was so fun to listen to her. She also has a lot of knowledge regarding plants and she has sooo many varieties in her garden. She will have you taste them and experience them. It’s quite a journey she takes you on! A MUST!!

Just wow! The entire day was filled with beauty and fun! The penguins were so fun (and loud!). Our guide, Andrew, was a pro at planning our itinerary and getting us to the sights before the crowds. When we left the penguins it was literally a zoo. When we got there we walked right in and had time to get lots of videos and photos. Same for getting to the Cape of Good Hope. The entire drive along the coast was stunning. I think it’s a must do day trip!

I’ve already shared several other comments on quality and perfection of the game drives. They all were unforgettable for different reasons! The airport is so close and easy that you have plants of time to do a morning drive, shower and eat breakfast before you need to head out. Location is perfect!

Roen and Walter were the BEST. What we experienced during all of our game drives was nothing short of perfection! They are such a great team and know how to find the animals and create unforgettable experiences. We saw everything and the quality of the experiences was something I will never ever forget!

The flight was super easy and our driver was waiting for us at the airport. Our lodging was 15 mins from the airport so that was great. We got there and had time to chill before our late afternoon game drive. We told our guide that we wanted to see rhinos and what did we see on our first drive - 10+ of them!! We also got to see a lion sound asleep after eating too much of a warthog. It was like he was in a coma. We were less than 6 feet away from him.

AN ABSOLUTE MUST!! It is the coolest place ever! Greenhouses, working farm, all kinds of different shops - bakery, coffee, market, ice cream. The list goes on. The property is sooo lovely. You could easily spend an w tire day there. And the tasting was incredible and their tasting boards are crazy delicious and interesting!

See my review as well for the drive to Franschoek since it involved the winery stops which we loved all of them. They were all so different but wonderful. Roy planned an incredible itinerary - highly recommend him!!

A must do while in Cape Town. We got super lucky with the weather and our timing. We didn’t wait in any lines and it was sunny with perfect blue skis and 75 degrees.

Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great but we liked it anyway and were rewarded with stunning views at the top where the weather was incredible! The views were just breathtaking!

Such a beautiful part of the country. We had no idea. It’s akin to Napa and Sonoma, but I think more beautiful with the mountains ringing it. The wine was great and all of the vineyards were quite different and lovely! And Roy, our guide, was awesome! We really enjoyed spending the day with him!

I am so happy we did this and learned about this history of Cape Town. We got to sample the food, which was awesome, and learned so very much. Our guide was born and raised there and has such passion and love for it - as he should. The architecture and paint are so beautiful. We very much enjoyed it.

Great hotel-beautiful views of Lisbon from the rooftop bar/restaurant.

We enjoyed the modern aesthetics of this hotel. The rooftop bar and pool were great.

Beautiful quaint hotel. It was fun to explore the patios and walkways. We very much enjoyed this hotel.

This is a must see experience. It was not what we expected but we learned a lot about the origin of Flamenco. Our guide was a Flamenco dancer. His knowledge and expertise made this excursion worth it. He took us to an amazing tapas place after the show. It was excellent.

We visited the Alana district during a festival time. It was an amazing time with street food and music.

Amazing experience. The palace was amazing.

Excellent excursion. We had so much fun with our guide. We learned so much about Portuguese's wine making.

The views were amazing. We were a little disappointed that only a few of the coastal beaches had open access. Some of the access points were closed.

Very nice excursion. It was very interesting and we learned so much about the history of these two places.

Fernando, the chef was amazing. We had a great experience learning to cook paella.

My favorite part of the trip was our experience at this resort. The tasting meal had some of the best dishes I have ever had, the view was amazing f from our bedroom, and the pool had a drink and snack bar and was almost private because the resort is not large. This is a five star experience that is off the beaten path. This is not the place to go for a nightlife of dancing- that is Naples, but to deny yourself this quiet get away would be the wrong choice if you are with your spouse, partner or friends.

We have done a few Kimkim cooking experiences and loved them all. Our party worked with this award winning chef to make some authentic Italian food from scratch. The wine, beer and food were outstanding and we felt at home with him and his staff. Highly recommend this experience if if you only like to cook a little bit.

If you appreciate history, this cannot be missed. Our guide was very knowledgeable, showed us the site in an efficient way without having us follow crowds of people. I would recommend this experience.

We loved this tour so much it made us want to stay in Oxford longer. Our guide was a PhD student who gave us a unique perspective and some great stories about student life at the university. This is a must tour if your in Oxford!!

Delianne was a great guide and if you want to see places in London most people dont see take this tour!

Our driver John was funny, knowledgeable and told us fantastic stories. Highly recommend doing this tour first when going to London.

Staff was excellent and extremely helpful and kind. Great location. Rooms were not cleaned well.

This was a fabulous accommodation. The staff was amazing. they were kind and helpful. Location in proximity to the coast was perfect! Food was fantastic. Amazing pool and grounds!

The room was clean and well appointed. Staff was extremely nice and helpful. The location was perfect for exploring Lecce.

Perfect location, clean, staff were extremely nice and very helpful.

Experienced captain. Very entertaining and beautiful experience!

great guide ! Wine experience was wonderful!

Great guide! Very well versed in the history of the city as well as at history.

Great experience but captain a little unsure of himself at time

Driver was awesome!

Our guide was fabulous!

Our guide was fabulous!

This is authentic French experience. Very nonchalant and pleasant service provided by the hotel staff. The ladies working the front desk are the restaurant server and all around everything else when it comes to service. No complaints because they did a great job taking care of us. Our room was clean and well appointed. There was no A/C in the room we stayed in however it did not matter. We left the two windows open at night and the provided fan and were never uncomfortable. Plus you get to hear nature while you sleep! It is about a 15 minute walk into Bayeux which we never did as we hired a cab each time. We did eat a dinner in the restaurant and it was delicious. I’m not sure if the front desk attendant was the cook too but it was very good. We would stay at this hotel again.

We were only able to stay here a couple of nights. We arrived to the hotel prior to check in time as our flight was an early morning flight. The hotel staff were so helpful in providing us water and a place to rest for a little while they prepared our room. We did sleep on the comfortable lobby couch and after what seemed like only a few minutes they had our room ready, before check in time! Such a wonderful surprise. The room was clean and comfortable and gave a a chance to rest a little more before heading off to the short distance to Notre Dame. Champs de Elyse and the Arch de Triumph are only a short walk from the hotel. The breakfast in the hotel was excellent along with the nice waitresses that served. Overall we would stay at this hotel again. Perfect for our short stay in Paris.

We had Nat as our guide, she was fun, professional and knowledgeable! This is a must do!!

This was an amazing adventure, highly recommend!!

Wonderful location. Friendly staff. Great breakfasts

This was a perfect match for the experience we were looking for. The resort was just the right size and the grounds were beautiful. We loved the incredible views of the lake and mountains. Truly a dream. The food was also excellent.

Our tour guide was so full of knowledge. She even spent extra time with us because we were having so much fun and she wanted to share more!

This was disappointing. Many sites we were not able to actually go into or were replicas.

Great capsule hotel. Very sage

Max was great- good energy!!

This was the highlight of the trip. Guides were wonder and so kind- treated us like family. Very special. We loved Hanna!

Felt a bit rushed

Such a great cultural experience

Yuki was awesome

So much fun a so yummy!

Pam was friendly and so informative. A pleasure to work with

Tucked away on a small side street. We were close to the action without having to listen to the street noise all night. Beautiful room with excellent AC for the super hot summer days.

Beautiful view. Delicious restaurant. Great location close to everything.

Our guide, Antonino was so incredible. We talked about how much we enjoyed spending time with him the rest of the trip. He gave us great recommendations and shared some sweet personal stories along the way.

Not a normal food tour as it was going to two restaurants and ordering off the menu. Not what we expected, fortunately the food was good.

I would recommend this cooking class to anyone

We didn’t care for this experience

Didn’t have a very good guide, though the experience was good

Not to be missed experience in Kyoto and great fun evening.

Not enough information on the experience

Great tour guy with lessons in Japanese culture which was great experience

Unfortunate heavy rain dampened our experience and SkyTree was a bit too commercial.

Poor guide, but ok experience.

Good guide for the local temples and the forest experience.

Good experience for our 17 year old grand daughter.

If we were to do it again, we'd do the Tea Ceremony and skip the Samurai Ninja Museum. Purely a matter of personal preference, but we loved the tea ceremony and didn't find the Samurai museum very engaging.

Moto was an exceptional tour guide. We inited him to visit us at home, because we sincerely enjoyed his company so much!
