Kimkim Trip Reviews

The absolute highlight of the trip was our guid, Mu Giang, who was with us 21-26 February as we traveled through Bac Ha, Coc Pa, Ha Gaing and Ba Be. She incorporated a lot of time with local friends and families, a number of home-cooked meals and lots of great information about exactly what we wanted to understand; life today in rural (and urban) Vietnam.
This trip was the most experientially dense trip we have ever been on, and that includes some amazing trips to Anarctica and hiking New Zealand, a lot to compare to!
Hien Do did an absolutely outstanding job of arranging the trip over six months of planning and working through a few changes as plans fell into place. She gets very high marks!
Long Dao picked up the ball about a month before we started and provided the best support, communication and continuity. He is a very hard worker with good contacts.
This team provided us outstanding travel, well within budget and provided us with diverse and very comfortable lodging. We really feel that we experienced all of northern Vietnam in an outstanding way. They were with us every step of the way while providing a very independent feeling trip. We would definitely use Kimkim again for anywhere they operate.

Hotel Reviews

Ibis Saigon Airport

It was a place to crash for our last night before a very early departure towards home. It is very close to the airport. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the room was quite adequate for the mission. The top floor restaurant/bar had a fine view and is a great place for a beer, but the menu is depressing. Lots of fried and western type foods, nothing fresh or local to speak of. The things we ordered were safe and well prepared, but this was definitely the worst food on the trip. Perfect time for it though! We did walk the neighborhood a bit, and there didn't seem to be any other good options. This hotel absolutely served the purpose, but I would not call it a destination to seek out.

Authenticity & Character

It is what it is.

Location

If you want close to the airport (which will soon be replaced...) this is it.

Staff

As everywhere, the people are the highlight and could not have been nicer

Cleanliness & Comfort

Little down at heel, but certainly clean and serviceable.

Saigon - Ba Be Resort

They style themselves as being quite top tier. Almost. The place looks like it's been there for quite a while and is now under newer management. Certain areas are very sharp and well tended but not the whole place. It is clean and our room was very comfortable, though it hadn't been open for quite a while and was in need of a good airing out, which we provided. All good after that. The dining was quite adequate, but not very fresh or inspired the first night. Very short on vegetables, but we asked and they improved markedly the second night. There are not a lot of options for hotels around Ba Be it seems, and this certainly met the need but somewhere a bit smaller and busier might be more fun.

Authenticity & Character

Kind of large and a bit run down. Somebody's grand vision that needs some continuity and TLC applied.

Location

a long way from the Lake and the town, but nothing around it for hiking or sight seeing.

Staff

The Front Desk was helpful and friendly. Dining as well. No English that we could tell, but we had a guide so it didn't matter much.

Cleanliness & Comfort

Our room was great, once we aired it out. Excellent bed, good AC and good shower. Dining room was very clean. Kitchen, maybe... but we had no issues of any kind.

Ha Giang Ecolodge

This was the highlight of our trip in the North. The construction was beautiful, the room well appointed, the view over the village and rice fields from our room was exceptional. The night before we got here had been a little rough, so we really were grateful for this place. Good local fare in the dining room and Hanoi beer, which was welcome after the hiking.

Authenticity & Character

Very local flavor, but nicely done.

Location

Great location for our activities in the area.

Cleanliness & Comfort

The room was a highlight of the trip. Great shower, great bed, very quiet!

Pu Luong Jungle Lodge

This is a really fun lodge. The room was all local materials and really nicely done. They got some laundry done for us and were generally just very helpful and accomodating. You have to be very comfortable with stone stairs without any railings to navigate from Registration to your room and to dining. The place is beautiful but be ready for some stair climber action!

Authenticity & Character

All locally built and the dining was all local as well, and very nicely done!

Location

Good jumping off spot for our hiking and exploration around Pu Luong.

Staff

They were short handed due to the Tet holiday, but met our every need with a smile. They were super.

Cleanliness & Comfort

Good room, good bed, quiet AC (though cool enough at altitude not to need much!). good shower

Nung Gia Homestay

This is a family homestay and they did a great job providing us with simple but very excellent dinner and breakfast the next morning. Simple accommodations, but plenty of hot water, good air conditioning. The bed is extremely firm (board with a thin mat over it), so a little like sleeping on the ground, but no rocks! It gave us good access to the area.

Authenticity & Character

Definitely the real deal! Your are in Vietnam now.

Location

Don't believe Google Map directions. The location is correct, but the route isn't workable. The view from the deck is great, overlooking the town and river.

Staff

The family was very welcoming and the mom, who cooked for us after a long day of teaching, made us feel very welcome.

Cleanliness & Comfort

Cleanliness was very good. The place is very simple and a softer bed was appreciated the next night.

Bac Ha Legend Home

The family bent over backwards to provide us with great locally sourced meals that were perfect. The accommodation is simple but very comfortable. It was a good location for our travel in and around Bac Ha.

Authenticity & Character

Family run, very accomodating, excellent home cooking.

MK Premier Boutique hotel

Hanoi

The staff here is outstanding. Unfailingly courteous, very helpful and very good English at the front desk. The location is the best. Right in the midst of the bustle of Old Town Hanoi and walking distance to a bunch of interesting stops. The room was comfortable (good mattress!) and quiet. Excellent air conditioning. We really enjoyed the roof-top bar for breakfast and our night cap in the evening. This place was a lovely refuge to return to after prowling around Hanoi or returning from a few days in the countryside.

Xin Man travel to Ha Giang via Hoang Su Phi

Vietnam

Google Maps showed the shortest route to Ha Giang, but it was a very minimal road. We made it, but the 15 minutes for the longer route on bigger roads could have been worth it. We had lunch with another friend of Mu at their homestay, and it was one of the best meals of the trip without doubt. The village is surrounded by small rice fields and planting was back in full swing after the Tet holiday. A good hike around and we ended up at our Ecolodge, the best overnight in this part of the trip. Took a great hike, river and waterfalls.

Bac Ha Market - Xin Man

Vietnam

Bac Ha Sunday Market was mind blowing! One of the largest markets we've seen anywhere, and everything you can imagine on sale. The highlight was shopping and then cooking lunch at a local family's home with Mu. (a long time friend of her's). That was really special.

Visit Hoang A Tuong’s Palace - “Pho” village of Flower H’Mong People

Bac Ha, Lao Cai

Bac Ha was a definite highlight. Great hiking, with an unplanned "happy water" stop at a local farm up in the hills outside Bac Ha. That was a hoot! We did NOT visit the Hoang A Tuong Palace, as it has been redone and not worth the admission or time. Walking around Bac Ha/Lao Cai was great.

Quality of Experience

Guides, Drivers and Staff

The hiking was splended and having Mu to interpret with our (somewhat tipsy) Hmong farmer friend was essential!

Trekking to Kho Muong and Uoi Villages

Pu Luong Nature Reserve

Our longest walk of the trip (14 km) and it was lovely.

Water Wheels walk and Bamboo Rafting

Pu Luong Nature Reserve

The walk around the villages was delightful. Tet in full swing and karaoke at full volume is king in every village. The water wheels were great to see from an engineering standpoint, though they were suffering from quite a bit of neglect, as they serve no purpose anymore, of course. Still, one could get the idea and admire the ingenuity of the design. The bamboo raft was most pleasant and we enjoyed it. Doesn't go very far, but it gave us a couple good photo ops.

VIP Fast Track Service (including visa application)

Vietnam

Arriving in the middle of the night, this was a godsend and greatly appreciated. Well worth the cost.

Our four week trip to NZ was customized after an iterative process of inquiry and response, including by phone with Ruth. She listened well and offered incredibly helpful insights. We followed her advice in most cases, and she offered various options for us to consider by way of guided tours, etc., as electives beyond the basis itinerary. We selected some of those to be included. The entire trip from arrival to departure including hotels, car rental and ferry booking was organized and communicated really well. All worked out perfectly. It turned out that a medical emergency intruded in the final week of our trip and the local agents were wonderfully supportive to manage and adjust the itinerary and give a sense of local expertise in the local time zone. My wife and I cannot speak more highly of our experience and plan to use kim kim again in our future travel plans.

This was our first time in Egypt. I worked with Kim Kim travel to organize and customize our trip. The service was outstanding. The original itinerary although well thought out wasn’t a 100% of what we wanted. We contact Aya with the changes, she was completely responsive and made all the changes so we could have a completely customized agenda. Kim Kim travel representative Aya did an outstanding job. Whenever I contacted her she got right back to me. It seems she works 24 hours a day.
During our time in Cairo, she was always available and checking in to make sure that things were going well. Any glitches she immediately corrected. I can’t say enough about her service and attention to detail.

Upon arriving in Cairo we were met by Osama, and we were fortunate enough to have Osama as our Tour Guide in Cairo towards the end of our trip as well. He has a genuine love for Egypt and an incredible knowledge regarding the history of Cairo and the history of Egypt in general. Aside from his sincere love for his country and ability to flawlessly instill his knowledge he is a most delightful individual and a joy to be around.
Sam, another one of our guides while we were in Cairo is a wealth of information and sincerely cares about his tour groups. We toured the GEM, the pyramids, Memphis, Sakkara and a full day trip in Alexandrea with him. Sam is another outstanding Tour Guide and Egyptologist, with a wealth acknowledge and a true love of his country He has a sincere respect for other cultures and is fun to be around. We purchased custom made rugs, which will take several months to manufacture. Sam has offered to stay in touch with us and the manufacturer until the job is completed to our satisfaction.

Mansour was our guide on the river, Nile cruise and in Luxor and Aswan. Mansour is a very special person and also an Egyptologist with a superior knowledge of Aswan and Luxor, not only from a historical perspective but seems to know all the hidden gems of the cities as well, not to mention he seems to know everyone in both cities. What a joy it was spending a few days with him, I cannot say enough about Mansour he such a wonderful person.

I don’t remember all our drivers names, but they were all terrific as well , respectful and accommodating.

We had a fantastic experience working with Hoa. She was very receptive to any changes we wanted to make and responded extremely quickly. She helped out with a few extra recommendations that were very appreciated and led to wonderful experiences.

The bike tour in Bangkok was one of our favorite excursions. It allowed for such a unique view of the city that we would not have been able to get otherwise.

We really liked our tour guide that took us on the Ayutthaya tour. She was very knowledgeable and engaging the whole time.

We also really enjoyed the Doi Inthanon National Park tour as it had a good mix of historical sites as well as interacting with nature.

The Lanna Lifestyle and Cooking experience was one of our favorites. The history was really interesting and we loved cooking the delicious meals.

The Cheow Lan Lake tour was beautiful and we were happy we did it, but it seemed a little less organized than the other excursions we had been on. Had a lot more “dead time” where we were sitting around not doing much.

We absolutely loved the Koch Tao & Koch Nangyuan snorkeling trip. The company seemed very well run and the excursion was gorgeous. The snorkeling was so much fun.

All the hotel selections were wonderful. We really appreciated the last hotel, the Culture, as it seemed to be the nicest one and was the hotel room we spent the most time in. Incredible view as well.

The transportation was seamless and made it so easy for us to travel. Very well thought out.

We thought that the trip structure that Hoa put together worked very well with the front end having more excursions and the back end being less filled and allowing for more time to relax.

He was nice and knowledgeable.

Transport

The bikes were in great working order.

The trip was absolutely incredible. it was planned to the minute and Long was the best tour specialist ever, he was making sure all our transfers went smoothly right away, he was assisting us if we needed anything and answering all our questions. we were so happy to meet him in person as well back in Hanoi and his service was absolutely outstanding! we totally recommend to leave with his care, everything went perfectly.

This was the second time we have used KimKim to help us plan a holiday in Central America, and would not hesitate to recommend them

Our most recent trip was to Belize, where we were fortunate to have guidance and support from Alex Conrado. He was so very helpful in his advice and professional knowledge of locations (we particularly wanted wildlife, nature, birds) and places to stay within our budget. He booked all the locations and arranged connecting transport which were all reliable and comfortable. All our trips to additional experiences (for instance on one transfer, we had time to stop and enjoy cave tubing through a cave system - something we would not have known about with Alex suggesting it) were reliably on time, with kind and knowledgeable drivers/guides who made us so welcome.

Our holiday was so much richer with the additional input provided by Alex, as he knows the country and what opportunities would be available to us in each of our chosen locations.
He also took the time to meet us when we happened to be in Antigua in Guatemala when he was there. We really enjoyed meeting face to face, and putting a face to a name, such a lovely opportunity for us.

Thanks Alex, 5 gold stars from us!

Birds Eye View Lodge and Tours Belize

Belize

What a wonderful location. The views over the lagoon are superb. We thoroughly recommend the early morning boat birding tour with Leonard, whose knowledge cannot be bettered. We also enjoyed several birding walks both around the lodge, on the shoreline and in the pine forest, all wonderful. A night walk was also a great experience. Food was traditional and delicious (though too much salt - for our taste and health, is added to many dishes - our only recommendation, especially as there are salt and pepper pots on every table should one prefer). Every member of staff was kind and helpful and we felt looked after the whole time we were there (5 nights). Day trip to Laminai was great day trip. Thoroughly recommend and came away having seen over 100 species of different birds!

A great trip to Nepal!
We just completed a 12 day trip to Nepal. I had been planning the trip for several months and Kim Kim, specifically, Chhewang, helped us along every step of the way! He listened to what we wanted to do and set us up with a great itinerary. We have never done an organized tour before. We were referred by friends, and we are so glad we chose this route for our trip to Nepal!
The first few days were spent in Kathmandu, which is a wonderful city. Pick up at the airport, and all transportation provided by Kim Kim was flawless. After Kathmandu, we were off to Pokhara for a trek. The drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara is the only part of the trip we would change. The roads are horrible and crowded. The ride of about 200 km, took about 8 hours. The views were good, but the time would have been better spent by flying. Pokhara is beautiful, and we could have done a couple more days of exploring there on our own. The trek was great and some of the most beautiful things we have ever seen! We are 60 and 68, and in decent physical condition. This pushed us as far as we wanted, and we are so glad we did it. What made it most enjoyable was our guide, Pema. He was absolutely the best! Just a wonderful person and so helpful and informative! He is now truly a friend for life! After the stay in Pokhara we were off to Chitwan National Park. Again, a wonderful experience! Made even better by our guide Suren. We saw many things and enjoyed the accommodation very much. After a few days there, a flight back to Kathmandu for a day or so and then a ride to the airport. Overall, a 5 star tour and experience.

No mater time, he was always available to strategize, answer questions, change plans and support us from beginning to the end. In country, our guide, Nacho (Luis Miranda Casanova), and driver, Logan, were nothing short of fantastic. Nacho’s breadth and depth of information far exceeded our expectations. From animals to geology and flowers to fossils, he was well-versed in everything about in Patagonia, and really South America. Logan is a true professional as evidenced by his driving skills and ability to navigate some very challenging dirt roads, day in and day out. I strongly recommend this highly talented team for your travels to South America.

Fleur and her team put together and amazing trip for us! We are a couple that is looking to relocate to the Netherlands and we had asked for a specific trip that would showcase more than just the typical tourist sites. They delivered. We were taken on a couple walking tours that highlighted some interesting areas and local hotspots. We were able to taste some local cuisine that was very unexpected but fantastic! The step-by-step instructions were so helpful that we definitely would have been lost without. The self-guided bike trip from Haarlem to the beach was eye opening to someone that was nervous about that aspect of Dutch culture and daily life. All of the guided tours we took were given by local experts that answered all of our questions with enthusiasm and professionalism. We will definitely use this service again and recommend it to anyone looking for an amazing experience in the Netherlands. Thanks again, Fleur!

The trip was a lifelong memorable event for us especially Penguin tours, Glacier tours and Torres del Paine. Kimkim travel partners 'TripsSouthAmerica' organized the program very well and made us comfortable. I wish to thank Travel specialist Carolina. She understood our needs and worked out a perfect trip plan.
We had a wonderful & memorable Penguin excursion. We could see penguins very close and also Whales and Dolphins on our catamaran trip. Visit to Torres del Paine was another great experience. It was a fantastic feeling, witnessing Glaciers both at Perito Moreno and Grey Glaciers from very close range.
We had no issue with hotel logistics.
All the travel partners picked us on time and they spoke good English. Thank you once again for a wonderful experience in Argentina and chile.

We started off in Buenos Aires with a walking food tour. Lucy was a fantastic guide, she explained their culture with such passion. Highly recommend the food tour. We enjoyed the tango dinner and dancing. Loved Palo Santo Hotel, it was quaint and comfortable. Bariloche was an incredible experience. We really enjoyed Facu, our guide for the few days we were there. So kind and personable. He went all out on our boating trip for the day, I would highly recommend the boat trip. El Chalten was stunning! Our hotel Los Cerros was very nice. Super friendly staff, the restaurant and bar was delicious . The Selena Hotel in El Calafate was a great hotel. The Glacier Trek was out of this world cool! The guides were informative and very good at what they do. The only issue we had was our pick up at the hotel was 30 minutes late so we ran the entire tour late. Leaving El Calafate and heading to Torres Del Piane was a long drive but well worth it. Our driver (we had private transfers hired through KIMKIM) was erratic and we had a few scary moments in the van., I would not recommend this driver but we don't know his name. Torres Del Piane was one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. Las Torres Hotel was an incredible experience. The rooms were great, the food was outstanding as were the drinks. We did the Lookout hike , Tenga Forest hike and the Lagoon excursion. All were incredible.
Leaving Torres to Puerto Natales- Our van pickup was 40 minutes late leaving us to try and find other transportation. He finally arrived and drove in a very unsafe manor to get us to the airport on time. He was going way over the speed limit. It was not appreciated at all. I would not use this driver again. Our hotel in Santiago was great. Paulo worked a miracle and got some champaign for my birthday. Hotel Ismael was very nice with great staff.
Paulo was a great tour director for our entire trip. He communicated with us often and helped us with some flight issues when the strike in Argentina occurred. It was nice to meet him in Buenos Aires, it put a personal stamp on the trip.

The only reason I gave four stars instead of five is because of our transportation issues with the vans.
Wonderful trip!

In February, 2026 our family of six adults toured Egypt on an itinerary put together with Habiba.
kimkim has a set itinerary for each country for a set number of days, typically seven or fourteen days. The client then has the opportunity to modify the itinerary to suit their needs.
Habiba worked with us to develop the tour that satisfied our requests and desires. After the initial contact with each other she set about making up an itinerary. Once we received it we began the long process of giving ideas to her which lead to new itineraries. This process went on until we were happy with the itinerary. We then paid our deposit and waited. Habiba handled all of the paperwork at her end to make sure all the tickets and passes were ready for us. Even as the trip was almost ready to begin our daughter made a request to see another site not originally part of the itinerary and Habiba was able to find a time to work it into the new itinerary. We were happy with the final itinerary and with Habiba for how she was always pleasant and eager to come up with a memorable family vacation.
We had asked for a private tour for the six of us and while this option was more expensive than a group tour we were more comfortable having our own private 12 seater Toyota van accompanied by our driver and guide.
In Cairo our guide Osama and driver Ahmed picked us up at the airport and took us to our hotel. We had asked Habiba to select a hotel with more character than hotels favoured by Americans and she suggested Le Riad Hotel de Charme on El Moez Street. It was a terrific choice! Most tourists want to visit the historic sites which are fabulous but what really makes Egypt memorable is the chaos and that was on full display on El Moez. It is exciting and exhilarating and if you don't experience it then you haven't seen Egypt.
Our guide for the Pyramids and mosques and temples over the next three days was Mahmood who was passionate about his country and history and caring about us in answering our questions.
We were driven to Alexandria by Ahmed to spend a night then boarded a sleeper train in the following evening to go to Aswan. The sleeper car had been recently refurbished and was quite comfortable. A dining car on the train would have made the experience even better but it was still quite good,
We had chosen a somewhat remote hotel across the river from Aswan but Habiba made sure to have a company representative meet us at the train station and escort us to and from the hotel which was an adventure in itself. The hotel was called Kato Dool Resort and it was terrific!
Aswan is the most scenic of the cities we visited although the Corniche in Alexandria is beautiful.
Eslam was our guide in Aswan and he was very knowledgeable about the various sites we explored. He helped us board our river boat for the cruise down the Nile and then met us Kom Ombo and Luxor for other temple tours. Kom Ombo was disappointing in that it was extremely busy with many cruise boats all arriving at the same time creating a crush of tourists all trying to see the wonderful temple but being pressured to hurry because so many other people were waiting.
We were told by Eslam the scheduling culprit is the government but it is unfortunate we felt so pressured and we didn't get to fully appreciate the temple.
Luxor has two wonderful temples but again I feel we weren't given enough time to get the full experience there.
The cruise boat was very nice with a good buffet for each meal and the cabin was comfortable.
One of the pleasant surprises of the tour was watching the boat vendors tie up to the cruise boat while underway and start selling their wares. That was quite fun to watch.
We were driven to Hurghada to stay in an all-inclusive resort which was very, very nice!
The next day was our snorkeling day, a terrific day out on the Red Sea with some beautiful coral and tropical fish to admire. We were very pleased with this activity however the next day was a big disappointment.
It was our safari day and it was not what was advertised. My advice to kimkim and any potential traveler is to skip this activity, it is a very obvious tourist trap and does nothing to enhance the Egyptian experience. kimkim, stop offering this activity!
With that bad taste still in our mouth the next day we boarded a plane to Cairo for our final two days. We lodged at the Steigenberger Hotel in El Tahrir, a departure from the character hotels but we wanted to be in a different part of the city this time.
We had booked a food tour which was advertised as an eight hour event but because of Ramadan it got shortened and then substituted with a city lights tour conducted by Osama. This tour was enjoyable enough but we had expected a full food tour for the foodies in our family so it was a bit disappointing we couldn't have it. My advice to kimkim and any agent working on itineraries is to not offer the food tour during Ramadan.
So then it was time to leave and once again Osama was our guide to the airport. With our goodbyes came the end of the trip.
Many thanks to Habiba and all the drivers and guides who helped us realize a very memorable vacation.

The only bad day of our tour. The quad and spider driving was okay but limited and the Bedouin village was not a village at all and to top it off was a ridiculous three minute camel ride. Just a very poor experience and not worth doing and for kimkim it should be removed from the optional activities list. Get rid of it!

I was lucky that I had time to travel Argentina for 9 weeks. I knew before that I wanted to visit Buenos Aires, to hike in Patagonia, to enjoy wines in Mendoza, to explore the region around Salta and to see the amazing falls of Iguazu.
With this information I started here on this site (kimkim) and asked for support. Micaela did an amazing job by putting all the things together, she even added Santiago de Chile, Puerto Varas, Bariloche and Puerto Madryn to my trip which were not in my focus. She booked all domestic flights, all accomodations and transfers (hotel <–> airport) and of course the tours.
Everything went as planned .. and whenever something changed or was not perfect (due to unforeseen circumstances) Milagros took care about it, organized it and led me know of the newest state.
There were no negative surprises .. all went as expected. For me it would have been nearly impossible to put all the pieces together and to deal with changes during my trip .. you made my travel so easy! Thank you, Micaela and Milagros, for your work and effort before and during my trip!

We worked with Sarah and her team to plan our honeymoon to the Philippines, and she was truly incredible from start to finish. During the planning process, she was extremely helpful, responsive, and thoughtful with every detail, from mapping out excursions and coordinating airport transfers. She made everything feel seamless and stress‑free.
Once we arrived, any small hiccups that came up (on the vendor side, never from Sarah’s team) were handled immediately. She and her team were always just a message away, and their quick action made us feel completely taken care of throughout the trip.
One of the highlights was a surprise beachfront lunch with champagne that Sarah arranged for us during one of our excursions. It was such a beautiful touch and made our honeymoon feel even more special and personalized.
We can’t recommend Sarah enough.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Kimkim travel. I had never heard of this company, which made me rather hesitant. I was immediately put at ease by their direct communication and responsiveness from start to finish. Hugo Romero, our incredible travel agent, listened very carefully to our interests and responded quickly as our plans evolved. His accessibility via email and video call made the process tangible, reassuring and exciting. Ibis, our “travel companion”, was truly amazing. Before our trip we had a wonderful phone call to iron out details of the itinerary. She made it clear that she was available to us for any questions or concerns. She was in contact with us every day, making sure that each transition was seamless and that our every concern was addressed. Our drivers and guides were all very professional, knowledgeable and reliable.

Hugo created an amazing experience that allowed us to appreciate the stunning beauty and rich culture of the Yucatan Peninsula. The specific experiences were all beyond our expectations. Our amazing tour of Rio Lagartos Biosphere Reserve was filled with incredible wildlife encounters and was followed by a delicious meal in the home of our captain. His wonderful family welcomed us with such kindness that it felt like an all-to-short home stay. Our guide at Chichén Itza was a lovely elderly Mayan gentleman who shared his deep passion and knowledge. Our time in the Mayan community of Yaxunah was phenomenal. It was a privilege to be in this beautiful setting, learning of the history and traditions surrounding the preparation of delicious Cochinita Pib. Meters away was the Lol Ha cenote, where we were the only ones swimming in this peaceful, magical place.

Our trip coincided with an unfortunate moment of unrest following the death of a cartel leader. While we never felt any personal risk, we decided to end our trip early as there were shelter-in-place orders along the Mayan Riviera, which was to be our next destination. Ibis and Hugo were both reassuring of our safety and understanding of our decision. They supported us completely as we revised our travel plans. Due to their great effort and the generosity of the tour operators, we were reimbursed for all our missed activities. While we were saddened to miss out on the experiences, it was beyond reassuring to feel that this travel company was looking out for our best interests and responsive to our every need. I can say with great confidence that we look forward to working with them in the future as we are eager to return to Mexico.

We cannot thank Kim Kim and Emerson enough for curating such a wonderful trip for us-- my husband and I spent 10 days in Finland, and it was the best time. The tours that were planned included a good variety of local history and landmarks (both in Helsinki and Estonia) and outdoor active adventures (like snowmobiling, dogsledding, snowshoeing). It was great to not have to think about getting uber rides to and from the tours or the airport for pickup-- everything was ready and made the trip so much more relaxing. Additionally, breakfast was included each morning, another cognitive offload that was nice.

The dogsledding and reindeer tours, as well as the snowmobiling, were highlights of the trip. These excursion were immersive, and we felt like you truly had plenty of time to experience the activity, as opposed to ones we have had (for example on an alaskan cruise during port excurisions) that are rushed and truncated. You felt like you got a full experience and left feeling thrilled and fulfilled.

We will definitely be using Kim Kim in the future, and thank Emerson for such a wonderfully planned vacation. We will cherish those memories for a lifetime!

We were lucky and had a private tour for this adventure which was great. It was nice to be active and outside! The coolest part of the excursion however was stopping in a local teepee type tent and our guide telling stories about his family and the local Sami people, and a bit about historic Finnish culture, while enjoying a warm drink. It was great!

We lucked out and ended up having just my husband and I on the tour, which was a pleasant surprise. This allowed great individualized time with the guide, who was so very friendly and fun. When I was a little hesitant about driving my own snowmobile, he was encouraging and his positivity convinced me-- I'm so glad I drove my own and had the BEST time doing it! While it was cloudy this night and we didn't see any northern lights, we had ample opportunity the remainder of the trip to make up for it.

Culture of Eastern Lapland Tour

Pyhä

This was the only tour that did not stand out as amazing for us on our trip. We drove around the local area and the guide pointed out Finnish homes and a small old village, as well as local natural landmarks--the lakes, etc. We took a quick trip to the top of the Pyha ski resort by lift, and stopped at the small visitor center just before closing. The guide was very friendly and nice, I just don't think this added too much to our experience of the area. (I may have mistakenly gone into this tour thinking we would get more about the Sami culture, history of the world wars in the area, etc., and it was more just a local drive). Pleasant and relaxing, just nothing remarkable.

From the marina hotel to the walking food tour, Blue Lagoon and Sky Lagoon, to snowmobiling on a glacier and Golden Circle tour, and the ultimate Northern Lights experience, KimKim made this trip everything I’d hoped it would be.

As travel professionals ourselves, we approach every journey with high expectations regarding organization, authenticity, logistics, and overall guest experience. Our trip to Sri Lanka exceeded those expectations in every aspect.

The itinerary was thoughtfully designed, combining cultural heritage, nature, and local life in a balanced and well-paced program. From the impressive archaeological sites of Dambulla and Polonnaruwa to the iconic Sigiriya Rock Fortress, each experience was carefully scheduled to maximize enjoyment while avoiding unnecessary fatigue. The transition into the hill country, with its tea plantations and the spectacular scenic train ride, offered a beautiful contrast to the cultural triangle, while the Yala National Park safari and the historic atmosphere of Galle provided a perfect conclusion to the journey.

Operationally, the trip ran flawlessly. Transfers were punctual, coordination between activities was seamless, and the overall flow of the program demonstrated strong destination knowledge and professional planning. This level of execution allowed us to fully enjoy the destination without logistical concerns, something we particularly value as industry professionals.

A special recognition goes to our local specialist, Dhanushka, whose responsiveness, attention to detail, and deep understanding of traveler expectations ensured a smooth and personalized experience throughout. Communication was clear, adjustments were handled efficiently, and every service reflected genuine care and professionalism.

Sri Lanka stands out as a destination offering remarkable diversity within short travel distances, culture, wildlife, landscapes, and warm hospitality and this journey showcased it in an authentic and meaningful way.

We confidently recommend both the destination and the organizing team to travelers seeking a well-structured, high-quality travel experience delivered with professionalism and local expertise.
