Kimkim Trip Reviews for Germany

Mathilde was dedicated to making sure we crafted the very best itinerary for our family trip and worked many hours with us, enduring numerous changes to make that happen. Besides that, she was so fun to speak with over our Zooms and chats! Despite language differences we felt understood and like Mathilde really cared about the quality of our time and experience in Germany. Once we arrived she checked in and made sure we had everything we needed...
In Berlin we stayed at a boutique hotel with the best breakfast and cappuccinos! We were all in heaven, and our guide Ronan was exceptional as he took us around the area near our hotel to experience Cold War memorials, including the site of the church of reconciliation and remnants of the Berlin Wall. In fact, all our guides were amazing, including Carlotta in Bavaria as we experienced Dachau and the labor/death camp, while staying in Munich. Outside of finding our grandmother's childhood apartment in Frankfurt, we really loved touring Neuschwanstein castle in Bavaria with Mark, and touring the towns of Nuremberg and Bamberg, and the wonderful wine tour at the end in the Rhine Valley with Carl. It was a trip of a life-time and a precious discovery of our family roots! Thank you to Mathilde and everyone at KimKim. We will highly recommend your services to our friends and family!

Hotel Victoria

Nürnberg

I felt like royalty while staying at the Hotel Victoria! Not only are the rooms pleasant with modern amenities and soothing wood paneling, but you also have the benefit of staying in a historic building with an amazing view of the old town tower right outside our room and a view of the old town platz. Breakfast was exceptional with high quality ingredients and presentation, along with exceptional coffee!

Amazing hotel near Alexander Platz; central location, welcoming, clean, stylish with amazing breakfast! Our only complaint was how hot, humid and stale the rooms were--no air movement and they ran out of fans for guestrooms, so it was unpleasant to stay in your room and hard to sleep.

Matilde was very helpful with planning our trip to Germany and Switzerland. She communicated often with me, and listened to alterations of the original planned trip. Once in Europe, I found that everything was well thought out and organized. I had zero glitches during our trip. I had no worries from a planning perspective. All accommodations were good, and planned activities were just right. I highly recommend KimKim and especially Matilde.

We had a wonderful time, thanks to Margaux’s planning of our journey through Germany. This trip allowed us to learn so much of Germany’s history and culture. Our favorite tour guides were Peter, Steve, Rob, Aileen, Sarah, and Michael who brought us through Berlin, Nuremberg, and Munich. They were the guides who really stood out. Not only did they know so much of the history and explained everything so well, but they were so friendly and fun!
If there was anything I would change about our trip, it would be to spend a couple of days somewhere on the French Riviera to rest and relax before coming home. Margaux was so supportive and flexible throughout our trip, of which we are so appreciative!

This trip was better than we expected. Everything planned very very well. Timing, etc. We had an early morning train ticket to Berlin and were picked up via private transfer, the gentleman met us with a sign that said "Schlabach" and took us to drop our bags at our hotel and then took us to the meeting point for a food tour we wanted to do. We arrived on time and he was very professional. The rest of the trip went the same way - we so enjoyed it. Thank you so much!

Our Germany trip was fantastic! The hotels were charming, beautiful, located perfectly, and the breakfasts were outstanding. The hotel in Heidleburg was especially wonderful with flowers and a cute courtyard. Each hotel was located in a good area where one could walk everywhere. The Grape Valley tour was excellent as was every tour that was planned. Clemens had also arranged for us to visit an ancestral church of my husbands in Miseau. Every tour guide was phenomenal. We could not have asked for a better itinerary! It will be a trip that we will cherish the memories for a long time!

The square was busy since the soccer games were being played there while we were visiting. The breakfast was phonemenal! Staff was okay, not overly friendly.

We loved everything about the trip. The only glitch we had was being able to navigate the trains. Being from the US, we do not have the wonderful train system that Germany has. Finding the platforms where the trains were was a bit difficult. There was a lot of walking. We missed one train because the representative told us the wrong track to go to. Hence, we missed the ICE train and ending up taking three different trains to get to Frankfurt. With one carry on and the steep steps it was difficult. However, there were so many nice people that helped us.

Kevin pulled together a perfect itinerary for our trip to Germany. He took time to get to know us and our travel preferences. We only had one week and he was able to put together a schedule that really appealed to us. The tours he arranged were with excellent guides who were passionate and knowledgeable. I want to give a special shout out to Ekkehard Werner who was our guide in Heidelburg. He spent more time with us than was scheduled, and gave some tips for the upcoming towns we were going to visit.

I am so glad I found this agency. I will not hesitate to reach out to them again when I am ready to plan my next European adventure!

Kevin Perry-did an amazing job. All the recommendations were spot on. All the tours were perfect- the day trips in Heidelberg, Bamberg were wonderful. It was a perfect mix of free time and organized activity- we will definitely use KimKim again- Great job Kevin and Amandine

Loved the trip overall. Excellent job by Valentine and her team. They were extremely flexible with all the changes we wanted to make. Even during our trip they assisted with all sorts of questions and even some changes. Overall the guides were good. The best guide was Jim in Fussen who showed us the castles, with a wealth of historical and current day knowledge. Overall we felt the trip was quite expensive, but most of it was the cost of hotels/restaurants in Switzerland and some of it was to do with our choices of guides, excursions and specific activities like driving around Nurburgring. Our family had an awesome time and we could not have done it without KimKim!

Hotel Sonne Füssen

Fussen

This hotel was beautiful, but it didn't have air conditioning which was quite a problem during the summer heat. I was not aware of this when I booked it. Nonetheless, I managed by opening the window to cool down. I'd say it was an okay experience but they should definitely let customers know about the lack of AC beforehand.

What an amazing experience! Our guide, Thomas, met us in Munich and was absolutely wonderful! His love for his city, history and connection to our own home town gave the tour a unique and personal touch. It was a memorable time! I only wish I planned a longer stay!

Our trip to Berlin, Amsterdam, and Bruges was absolutely fantastic. Tomaz and Zala took great care of us from planning our itinerary to providing real time assistance when needed. The transfers, tours and accommodations that Tomaz and team set for us exceeded our expectations. Our private guides in Berlin (Monika), Amsterdam (Eva), and Bruges (Blanca) we so knowledgeable in providing us the historical significance of the areas we toured and also provided us with good recommendations for where to eat to get the real local experience.
Having our tickets and passes before we arrived made for a stress-free vacation full of memories that will last our lifetime. Thank you to the entire team for making this trip an absolutely wonderful experience.

Zala was invaluable in planning and executing our travel in Germany and Austria. Truly an amazing job.

Our time in Germany was more than we could ever have imagined! The trip plan put together for us was absolutely perfect! We really enjoyed the 2 days we spent with our guide, Miha. Day 1 was a walking tour of Berlin and Day 2, he drove us to Potsdam to see the palaces and so much more. He is so knowledgeable and kind. It was an absolute treat! He recommended we visit the Pergamon Museum, so after our trip to Potsdam, he dropped us off at Museum Island. We not only saw the museum, but the Panorama and the Neues Museum, as well. We were glad that the trip to the Eagle's Nest was cancelled and we were able to visit Salzburg. It was a beautiful, sunny and warm day for us to tour the Mirabelle Gardens and the fortress. The bus tour to the Neuschwanstein Castle was really nice. We appreciated the break from trying to figure out public transportation, but we were able to go on our own hike in the mountains and then join up for the tour and departure at the designated times. We were glad we weren't corralled from place to place in a big group without the ability to think for ourselves. Our tour guide in Weimar, Marion, was delightful! She is so knowledgeable and animated, so she made history come to life! We loved our time with her! Both hotels were excellent and the breakfast buffets were so wonderful!

I initially tried to plan our trip with US travel agents, but they could not put together a plan that was anything close to the options and personalization that Tomaz and his team did. They were always easy to communicate with and quick to respond - before the trip and while we were in country. All in all, this was a perfect trip for us!

We started our trip with a flight cancellation due to an airport strike, but our Kim Kim team, Tomaz, Mojca and Zala made the necessary arrangements and delivered a wonderful experience!
Our 3 day trip started with a visit to the Dachau concentration camp. A very emotional but a must see one!
Then we headed to the city were the Palace, the churches, the Redidenz, the monuments, Marienplatz, the streets and the great vibe, made of our trip an unforgettable one for sure!
The BMW world and museum, the Olympic Park and its Tower, the walk through the English Garden made the second day a very relaxing one, ending with a must dinner at the Hofbrauhaus!
The third day we drove to the Neuschwanstein Castle and the view were breathtaking! From there, we went to Innsbruck, visiting gorgeous churches and the absolutely beautiful Austrian Alpine mountains. Innsbruck was the perfect end to our trip. Quaint and beautiful! ( and the visit to the Swarovski store)
The star of the trip: Mr Karl, our private guide! He went above and beyond! We felt like visiting with a family member. He was great with our 9 year old and a wonderful talker. He is so knowledgeable in history, not only of the city or the country, but of the whole world. His positive attitude and his smile makes the trip even better! We definitely need more Karls in the world!
Thank you Kim Kim for another awesome vacation!
See you in our next adventure!

Regarding the photo book the pictures duplicated themselves in the ski days, but I do not want them duplicated in the book, please.

Zala and Tomaz planned an excellent, detailed itinerary with transportation, tours and lodging. Hotel Mio in Munich was the best. Located in the old city on a pedestrian shopping zone, rooms were quiet and one had a view of an old church clock tower. The rooms had espresso machines. Berlin's Hotel 38 rooms were very small and the bathrooms were tiny- similar to a train, but the breakfast was superior with plentiful offerings and fantastic staff. It would have been nice to have had lotion in the hotel rooms in both Munich and Berlin but they did have water bottles. The one night we were at Ruby Louise Hotel in Frankfurt was good- there was lotion in the rooms, but no water bottles. Breakfast didn't start until 7am which was a little tight since our airport ride was scheduled for 7:30am. The restaurant that was booked for us on New Year's Eve, Zu den 12 Aposteln, was perfect and tasty, like eating in a cozy wine cellar. We would not have found this on our own.
High-speed trains were efficient, stress-free and a great way to travel- much more comfortable and better than renting a car.
Mr. Harald Zawuski was an exceptional guide! He was very knowledgeable, engaging, compassionate and thorough as he walked us for 6 hours around Berlin. Time really flew by and we gained a rich appreciation for the history and culture and were lucky enough to even see famous people- Angela Merkel and Christoph Waltz!
In Munich, Mr Thomas was great and took us to places we would not have known to go to on our own, such as inside the Preysing Palais.
The Neuschwanstein bus tour was excellent- we saw Linderhof, Oberammergau and Neuschwanstein. Our guide Barbara and driver were attentive and informative with a reasonable number of about 30 people with bananas, apples, cookies, peanuts, and snack pretzels on the bus as well as a bathroom. They also offered us a local bottle of beer on the way back to Munich. We walked the strenuous trail from the start of the visitor center to Marienbrucke and further up to the overlook at Neuschwanstein. Not for the faint of heart, it was an invigorating work-out but with amazing panoramic views.
This was a nicely organized adventure and I was happy to have their planning expertise. This was a rewarding time-saver for a memorable holiday family trip with our college son and teenage daughter.

This was our first trip to Germany . We used Tomaz help to plan a trip in Bavaria . We had three days planned and each day the plan was really well scheduled .
First day we met Karl . We loved Karl . This man is full of patience , is so good with kids and gave us so much information . We did not want to leave his side so as not to miss any information . He is so kind and helpful. A very honest person who did not push any of his ideas and gave frank reviews of hotels and restaurants . We went to chiemsee lake the first days . On our way back he showed us a lot of Munich and even was kind enough to take us centre of city and show us the Marienplatz on our way to hotel . He got us umbrellas and asked us to keep them for the trip . Thanks to him we call a sweatshirt we bought “ monster t shirt “
Next day we went to rothenberg with Thomas . Another very kind and patient person . Very detail oriented . A very caring fatherly figure and he never gave us attitude for any detours esp when my wife started having headache he was kind enough to drive to a pharamcy . We talked a lot about history politics movies Oktoberfest food and he gave us some really good options of good Bavarian cuisine which was very affordable .
Karl took is to castles in Bavaria which was an awesome experience and he thendropped to Garmisch and again gave us a detailed plan on what all we could do. He could have just taken us to the castle and dropped us back and be done with it but he took his time and took us to these beautiful detours showing places you could not see if you did not have a private tour .

Thomas dropped us back to Munich airport and despite delay due to accident he kept his calm and was very reassuring all the way back .

We had a minor issue with the Train from Berlin to Munich as our seats were not reserved so we had to sit on the floor for 2 hours before we could find a spot .
Zala was very helpful all the way . Her emails are very well detailed with all the information and the trip went very smooth . The hotels booked very nice and very comfortable accommodations .
In all a very well planned trip . Looking forward for many more trips together

We were very pleased with the service we received from Tomasz and others. You arranged for hotels and guides that fit our requests, and we had a wonderful trip. One minor matter was that on our rental car return to Sixt in Munich, we were given the address of the office for Sizt and it should have been their rental return in a nearby (but hard to get to) location. The local manager made the problem go away for us.
