We had an amazing time in Southeast Asia thanks to Tina and Kimkim! We had never used a travel agent before and desperately wanted to go to Southeast Asia but did not have time to plan our trip.

Tina worked with us across multiple iterations to customize a trip with different activities, locations, and lodging that suited our preferences. Our local guides and drivers were amazing! We did not think about the amount of hassle it would save to have all this booked ahead of time. Plus it was amazing to have local guides that we got to see multiple days in a row.

All in all, we happily recommend Tina + Kimkim and will use them again the next time we come back to Southeast Asia!

Hotel Reviews
Lynnaya Urban River Resort
Siem Reap

A hidden oasis centrally located in Siem Reap! We loved the pool and the room was amazing. Plus the prices were super reasonable!

Cleanliness & Comfort
Super clean and very nice. Our AC ran a little warm but otherwise an amazing hotel
Koh Tao Cabana Hotel
Koh Tao

Amazing location on the end of the Koh Tao beach. Easily walkable to busier areas with a free shuttle from the pier yet still a bit more relaxed. We loved the onsite restaurant (servers were very friendly + food was solid) but also easy to walk to other options

Tour guide Nick really got to know us and was able to make slight tweaks to the itinerary to suit our desires!!! He was very friendly and the best tour guide we had on the whole two week trip

Such a great experience! Our guide was very friendly and allowed us to provide input into our menu since we were the only couple participating. The food turned out great and we had an awesome time. Can’t wait to take the recipes we learned and make them back home

Chiang Mai

I was a little apprehensive booking this since I didn’t see too many reviews for it and wanted to make sure it was ethical. Turns out, it was an amazing experience. They talked about how they used positive reinforcement to work with the elephants they had onsite (3 females). We had an opportunity to feed them, wash them in the river, and make them a nutritious snack using local natural supplements.

Dices were great and the dice masters were great as well. Visibility wasn’t perfect the day we were out there but can’t control that. Had a really fun time, thanks Nina!
