Kimkim Trip Reviews for Argentina

We had the most incredible time in Argentina! We’re a group of three girls who wanted to explore all the must-see places of Argentina, from the vibrant Buenos Aires to the mountains in Patagonia.
Kimkim planned for us an amazing itinerary meeting all our requests, suggesting a lot of fun activities (including a nice shower in the Iguazu waterfalls) and relieving us of the stress of planning a complex trip throughout such a big country like Argentina.
We had a stay of about 16 days during which we visited Buenos Aires, Iguazu, El Chalten, El Calafate and Ushuaia. All places amazed us with their peculiarities, with the most unforgettable experience being the excursion at the Perito Moreno glacier. Be sure not to miss this when planning to travel Argentina! If you enjoy hiking, plan to spend a few nights in El Chalten. You can climb the mountains and enjoy the incredible view of Fitz Roy!
Ana and Anahí from Kimkim were very helpful during the planning process. They made sure we had all the info we needed and the team also answered our questions during the trip.
All in all: it was a looooovely experience, with a great and flexible service. Would 100% do this again

Our trip was mixed; some parts were great while others less so. Our hotel in Buenos Aires was hosting a loud party and it was impossible to sleep. The front desk said the noise would stop at 10:30 pm, but it did not. We messaged KimKim and Camila was polite but not helpful. We asked for a refund (this was not offered) and she said we would get one, but then offered an upgrade, which we took. We did not care for the location of the upgrade. We stayed for three nights in Iguazu, but felt two would have been better. There was also unclear communication about one of our internal flights, for which we were told there would be a two hour layover, which was in fact over four hours. Flights are what they are, but we would have preferred to have accurate information. This flight was nonstop but we were told there would be a stop, however I believe this information was in reference to a flight that we had ended up changing. The End of the World train ride in Ushuaia was not at all worthwhile and on one of our guided trips (through Canal Tours in Ushuaia) we waited around for hours due to poor communication about activity levels (we were very specific about limitations due to a back injury) and a lack of available options. On the positive side, Sonia, our guide in Buenos Aires, was wonderful and we really enjoyed the food tour. Pilar, our guide in Iguazu, was fantastic, the hotel was great, and we recommend seeing both the Argentinian and Brazilian sides of the falls. We liked our hotel in Ushuaia, which had a wonderful view and helpful staff. We had used KimKim for a trip to Thailand that was fantastic and we felt there was a lot of added value with that trip, but that was not the case for Argentina. I could have easily planned this trip myself, it may have cost less (although hard to tell since Kim Kim does not provide a breakdown), and I think we would have enjoyed it more. On the whole, the KimKim experience depends on the travel agent you work with. In this case, we felt our travel agent lacked experience and our trip could have been planned better.

We loved our 10 day Honeymoon in Argentina! Matias did an excellent job scheduling everything including local car transfers, daily activities, meals and domestic flights. We loved having everything laid out for us ahead of the trip. Knowing that we didn't have to think about how to get a cab from the airports to the hotels or from hotels to activities was such a relief. We are so happy that we let Matias handle everything. All we had to do was show up at different times to meet waiting drivers and guides!

Nido del Condor Hotel & Spa

Very nice hotel, about 15 min from the town center, 20 min from the port, and like 30 min from the airport. Rooms are very nice with a view of a beautiful lake! Comfortable beds! Large jacuzzi. Bath robes in the room. Fireplace. Restaurant on premises. Breakfast is quite good, eggs are excellent! Staff is very kind and attentive 🙏. Has a spa facility - with a pool, dry and wet saunas, and couple lounges. My only advice to the hotel management is to make sure saunas are working as it should. We stayed 5 nights and it was a pleasure. Thank you!

O2 Hotel Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires

Basic hotel. Good location. The reason I gave 2 stars is the size of their beds. They are tiny! If the two single beds are together it’s an American queen size bed, not king. And if they are separate they are much more narrower than a regular single bed. On top of that, the pillows are very hard and puffy. And the fitted sheet for a single bed is larger than a bed. So basically you sleep very uncomfortable on the bare mattress all night (because the sheet will roll) and be tired with a neck pain in the morning. Unless you are small person and the queen size bed is ok for two people.

Additionally, this time once in country out contact changed. Kristi did great communicating while we were in Argentina but I think it’s helpful to have the same contact all the way through.

Nice hotel in wine country and the rooms in the wine barrels are unique. Beds are very comfortable, room is spacious and clean. Staff was very nice and breakfast was good. Onsite restaurant was good but limited and it’s a bit far to walk anywhere else. Energy saving hotel requires you to have a key in the slot for the AC to run which I understand but the room would get very hot during the day.

Amazing trip in Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, which materialised after 5 years dreaming about it.
Perfect organisation, beyond what I was dreaming for. Small groups for excursions, our 4 guides where all amazing, knowledgeable, friendly, caring, making us feeling welcomed and privileged. A lot of small and so precious attentions, like making us arrive first in Ushuaia national park to get the beach with post office just for ourselves. We realised the chance we had when we left the place 20 minutes later, full of tourist's buses…
Perito Moreno and Esmeralda Lagoon are magic places, and each time we had all the free time we needed to enjoy the spectacular nature.

We come back from Argentina in loved with the country and its kindness.

Special thanks to Virginia and then Emilce who accompanied us on building the program and making it happening. The trip was originally planned in 2020 and postponed because Covid19. Kimkim team kept in touch all the way long and made a wonderful job allowing us to reschedule and rebuild when finally possible again for us in 2024.

We had some great guides and drivers. We were lucky because in Mendoza we had the same driving for all our trips (can’t remember her name) - she was an excellent driver. Then in Santiago our driver was Orlando - he was wonderful! Very friendly and had lots of information about the town.
The day trips in Salta were too long - they were about 10-12 hours which is too long to be sitting in a bus which is why we canceled our third bus trip.
The hotel in Salta does not have an elevator and there was no hot water in our room on the last night and morning. We didn’t talk to reception about it due to language problems.
The tour Gabriel for the walking tour of Salta was not that great, plus it was supposed to be 3 1/2 hours but it was only for one hour (which did work out better as we had been walking around Salta for most of the day).
All of the wineries that you booked for us were really great, we had some great wine and great food.
It was great being meet at the airport with a driver, that made everything so much simpler/nicer.
We will definitely use your company again and recommended you to lots of people that we met during the trip.
For the Iguazú falls - the boat ride that you booked for use was canceled so we ended up taking a jet ski boat ride, we highly recommend this ride as it is amazing - they take you under the water falls (they provide dry bags for all personal items).

Travel Review: A Magical Journey Through Argentina

This long overdue heartfelt review is long overdue, as we want to extend our deepest gratitude to our incredible hosts. From start to finish, the customer service, scheduling, and meticulous attention to detail provided by our travel coordinator (Ana), guide (Flor), and driver (Mhervin) were nothing short of outstanding.

Upon our arrival in Buenos Aires, we were warmly welcomed by our guide, Flo, and Mhervin, who would look after us throughout our entire adventure. Their expertise and friendliness instantly made us feel at home in this vibrant city.

One of the highlights of our trip was the Tango lessons and dinner show. The experience was simply fabulous! We were immersed in the passion and artistry of Tango, enjoying every moment of its rich pageantry. It was a true celebration of Argentine culture that we’ll cherish forever.

Another unforgettable experience was our personal cooking class with Chef Paula at El Federal. What a delight it was to journey through the four regions of Argentina via its culinary offerings! Chef Paula was an exceptional instructor, guiding us through the preparation of traditional dishes. The joy of savoring our own creations was the cherry on top of a wonderful evening enjoying the food and our wonderful host.

A special thank you to Ana, our fantastic tour coordinator, for suggesting and scheduling these incredible experiences. She truly knows how to curate the perfect itinerary!

Flo, our guide, further enriched our trip with insightful walks and recommendations for dining at some of the best local spots. Our visit to La Bamba de Areco was particularly enchanting, with its tranquil ranch setting, stunning landscapes, and the opportunity to connect with horses and locals and horse whisperer.

Ana also arranged a magnificent excursion to El Calafate, where we marveled at the breathtaking Perito Moreno Glacier on the Blue Safari. The overnight stay at Los Ponchos Hotel Boutique was fabulous, with comfortable accommodations and delicious food that made our stay even more special.

We cannot thank Ana enough for the flawless air and ground connections she arranged for us, ensuring a seamless journey from Buenos Aires to El Calafate and back.

For anyone considering a fantastic holiday in Argentina, we wholeheartedly recommend utilizing KimKim and asking for Ana, Flo, and Mhervin. They are a dream team, and we can’t wait to return and experience more of Argentina— with our wonderful guides by our side!

The included breakfast was good. Each night we dined at the Hotel and the food was well prepared and delicious. The Hotel staff including the front desk was friendly and courteous.
The full day catamaran boat tour to Bernardo Higgins NP, Serrano & Balmaceda Glaciers was amazing. It included a delicious BBQ lunch which exceeded our expectation.

This was the first time trying Kim Kim. Throughout they were so approachable, accessible and flexible to our needs in the tour to Argentina.
The trip itinerary was modified so many times, but they have been as patient and detailed every single time. Aappreciate Jimena and Hugh for their flexibility and professionalism.

The guidance provided by Nacho on how to navigate the Iguazu National park was spot on.
The boat/ship tour in El Calafate took us so close to the glacier and kept us there for sufficient duration for everyone to take some amazing pictures from every direction.
Andres, the cheerful tour guide in Usuaia, pampered us with chocolates. Something I was not expecting at all, and it showed how much they cared about the tourists.

Hugh also came to meet us on the last day, a very kind gesture, and guided us more on exploring Buenos Aires shopping areas and I finally got the one souvenir at the right price that I had been looking for, one fifth the price of what I was getting in some other shops.

The trip was AMAZING! Kristy did such a great job organizing absolutely EVERYTHING! Loved having the private drivers always on time, checking us into our flights, and boarding passes sent directly to the phone made ease of travel with carry-on only a breeze. The excursions were great and we met so many great guides from Ricardo Paez who was personable and extremely well-versed in the history, landscape, and focal points of Mendoza, to Tessa, who unfortunately was under the weather but still made the Wine Tour fun, to our lovely Iquaza Falls guide - Amanda!! She was an absolute doll. would highly recommend kimkim for anyone wanting everything planned out exactly to their taste and style of travel and will certainly use this service again. A special thanks to Kristy for being so on top of everything and readily accessible if we needed anything. She was on her A-game!!

Our trip was so great. Was my first time using Kim Kim and it was seamless. We had daily contact and issues resolved quickly when they did come up. Kristy was great and easy to work with as we altered things on the trip.
I would for sure use them again.

Better than expected.No compliance price was a little bit high, but it was still worth

Favorite part was Day 4: Big Ice trek.
Least favorite and actually did not match the description was Day 3. There was no guide, just a driver that dropped the group off in one place and drove us back.
Overall though, it ended with a high.
People are passionate, friendly and helpful.

This trip took a year to plan, though that time Lorena was so patient and communicated very well. The itinerary that she made for me was tweaked for my liking. Everything was to the T from pick up, tour, hotel, bus. The hotel that she picked was great. Lorena did an excellent job and her team was great.I was going to this trip knowing it's going to be a good trip but it exceeded my expectations it was great!!

This was a great trip. Our guides were great and very knowledgeable. Our drivers were always on time. Hotel selection was great.

Boat trip to Victoria Island and the Arrayanes forest, Premium deck

Bariloche

This was the least interesting part of our trip. The lake is beautiful, but can be seen by hiking. This long boat trip takes you to Victoria Island, which was just an island with large redwood trees from California . This may be exciting for an older traveler, but took all afternoon just to see a park w trees. Would not recommend this. Use your time hiking, not on a boat ride.

Flor did an incredible job making our ideas reality! She managed to get everything we asked for plus more! From Buenos Aries to Mendoza to Iguazu Falls to Ushuaia! All in our 11 day frame! We got as much of the diverse Argentina as we could possibly get! These trips are the once a year time I get to see my bestie so thank you so much Flor for everything you do/did for us! For anyone who gets a chance to work with this amazing person you can rest easy knowing she will do her best to get you exactly what you ask for! Flor was very tentative, responsive, gave great advice and wonderful options. Any questions we had she answered right away! On top of that, we had amazing guides, tours and drivers! We learned so much about the history at each place we went! Saw amazing tango dancers, ate delicious food, drank fantastic wine and had so many write home about experiences! Thank you Flor for an amazing time!!
