Planning this trip with Lacey was so easy! She was incredible. Perfect itinerary and always there with a quick response when we had a question. I would highly recommend Kim Kim to anyone.

The only activity I would have left out was the bike ride in Bangkok. It was nice and the guide was lovely but it was soooooo hot. My only other SLIGHTLY negative comments are I wish we had more down time and I think having a driver and a guide were superfluous in some instances. Particularly to and from The Float House.

Chiang Mai was our favourite part of the trip and we absolutely loved Bam. What a lovely lady! Our two excursions in Phuket were also wonderful.

Overall, this was a trip of a lifetime. Great experience.

Amazing hotel with a very crappy buffet. Rooms were gorgeous! Loved being on the water! The food was like a bad western Chinese buffet.

Beautiful setting and gardens. Fantastic breakfast buffet. Didn’t love having to take the cable car up and down and the rooms could use an update. You get 2 bottles of water a day and there’s no place to buy more. I felt like we were being nickled and dimed for everything. Would choose a different hotel next time.

Really cool to experience Chinatown and the flower market. We were very particular about only eating food that was cooked fresh. I wish we had tried a bunch of little things and not just had one meal but maybe our guide was getting vibes from my husband because he was very squeamish.

Beautiful park! Loved swimming in the pools and getting nibbled on by the fish. We only made it up to the 5th waterfall. It was over 40 degrees Celsius. We had a delicious lunch afterwards.

We had a really good time learning to cook some traditional Thai dishes. I thought it would be a bit more of an intimate family gathering but this is a business . Really cool setting on the family land.

One of our favourite days. Beautiful walk along the river with Bam and our Karon guide with a coffee and delicious lunch in the village. Last stop was up to the King and Queen’s pagoda.

Lovely relaxing day. We had fun picking tea leaves. I didn’t want to stop. Beautiful location. We’ve really enjoyed the teas we bought there. Next was lunch on a float house and some swimming.

It was great. We spent all the time we wanted with the elephants. There was a Mom and baby in their own enclosure and they seemed somewhat stressed. The mom was swaying back and forth and this we were told was because of the elephants weight? If you google why elephants do that, it’s because they’re stressed. Other than that the elephants looked well taken care of and the experience was fantastic.
