Amalia, our local specialist, planned the most unforgettable honeymoon trip we could have ever asked for. She was attentive to every detail and thoughtful in choosing activities that both my husband and I would enjoy. We wanted a delicate balance between fun excursions and time to relax and explore independently. Amalia did an excellent job of communicating with us to create this perfect itinerary and was flexible in making any changes we requested and answering all the questions we had along the way!

We were fortunate to have 3 weeks in Greece and wanted to experience places and sights that many tourists may sometimes overlook. Upon arriving in Greece we were gifted Ouzo, some delicious Greek mountain tea, and provided with all the documents, tickets, and information we would need for our trip from Amalia's team. We began our time in Athens and soon took an amazing road trip through the mainland to visit places like Nafplio and Olympia. Our next stops were the beautiful islands of Zakynthos and my family's home island of Kefalonia. Amalia created a detailed itinerary for each day of our trip and perfectly coordinated with local businesses and travel companies to ensure our travels between locations were smooth and stress-free.

Our itinerary included incredible suggestions for restaurants, must-see attractions, detailed information, and insightful history of each location. One of the absolute coolest parts of what Amalia put together was that it was all accessible through an app called Vamoos. This app enabled us to get real-time updates on flights, ferries, and direct links to maps and directions needed for our trip.

The excursions picked and booked by Amalia were beyond delightful. Each guide and company member we encountered was courteous, kind, and very knowledgeable. We also enjoyed the balance of private excursions and a few group excursions where we had the pleasure of meeting other people from all over the world. Some of our favorites included a private guided Acropolis tour and horseback riding on the beach.

Each of our hotel accommodations blew us away - we had the most incredible views and were always located near many shops, restaurants, and attractions. Our top hotels included 18 Micon St in Athens, The Gambello Hotel in Nafplio, Hotel Europa in Olympia, and our favorite hotel was The Balcony Hotel in Zakynthos, which came with a panoramic sea-view balcony.

The rental cars we drove during our stay were perfectly sized, brand-new, and from companies with kind and responsive staff members. We always felt that we were their top priority and were thankful to have been met upon arrival in each location and transported in a timely manner to and from the airport or other locations.

Amalia and her team were always available if we had any questions or needed assistance. We are truly thankful to her and the trip she created and came home with a lifetime of memories as newlyweds!

Chris really listened and created a first time trip to Athens and the Islands that was both full of informative and delicious experiences, hotels with amazing views and breakfasts within our budget and the right balance of experiences and free days for downtime. We wanted this trip to be both an immersion and a vacation and Chris delivered!

I agree with Deepti. I would give 2 STAR to Bakia travel company in Santorini, for the reason, they came late to pick up from the ferry arrival, the came late to pick up for the tour. The tour was supposed to start at 3:30 pm, but the driver showed up at 4:15 pm. The driver seemed disinterested to show us places and tried to skip the red sand beach and sunset rather he recommended us to take a long break at a restaurant on the black sand beach, the tour car was run down and was extremely noisy. the kind of money we paid, we expected a better tour guide. The hotel "Akilo suites" had a dungy smell. Athens and Naxos were great. Naxos was awesome. Cynao suites was awesome. the tour guide was awesome!

Thank you to Harris and the kimkim team for helping us plan an amazing trip to Greece! We really wanted to see some of the less touristy areas, but weren't sure where to even start. With kimkim we settled on Syros and had an amazing time on a very underrated island! We did some more popular destinations too (Athens and Naxos), and each location was so incredible in it's own unique way. The food was some of the best we ever had and all of our excursions were so fun.

Where I felt a bit let down was with the communication aspect. Certain information wasn't appropriately communicated to hotels ahead of time and when we went on a food tour, they hadn't been informed about allergies so my boyfriend missed out on trying multiple dishes, even though we were told that kimkim would notify them about our allergies. For the price, it was very unfortunate to not be able to participate in every part of the food tour. Other than that, it was a great experience!

I can't say enough about the services that we received through KimKim, and more importantly, our trip specialist Ina. My son initially found KimKim as a potential resource for a trip that we were planning to Italy and Greece. I started some dialogue with them about 4 months ahead of our travels, and we were connected with Ina as our local specialist. We gave her some general thoughts as to where and what we wanted to see and do, and she did an outstanding job in making suggestions and helping to customize our trip. Given that the Greece part of our trip was going to be our two adult kids traveling out of the country on their own for the first time, we were probably a bit high maintenance with our constant questions and pestering, but Ina was extremely responsive and helpful. The icing on the cake was having our kids get to meet Ina and spend part of a day with her as their local resource and guide...they absolutely loved it! Our kids reached out to KimKim and the Travel12 team for assistance a number of times during their travels in Greece, and they were always helpful and responsive. This was our first experience with a travel service, and it was outstanding in every respect. Thank you Ina and the KimKim/Travel12 team for providing us with a great travel experience and great memories. All our best, Steve, Deb, Hannah, and Ethan.

Chris was absolutely phenomenal. I have used many agents over the years to book trips and Chris was thorough, planned a perfect trip and kept in contact before and during the trip. He was extremely helpful and I left for the trip in full confidence of a successful adventure. I would very very highly recommend him and wish he books trips all over the world. The service was a 11/10!

Overall I thought KimKim and Antonis were excellent. They helped us put together a last minute trip to Greece that felt truly amazing. There was one thing I did not like however. You do not receive a breakdown of costs for individual hotels, events, transfers or transportation tickets. I have been told by KimKim that this is a function of Greek law, but I still am not a fan of one bill with a total at the end. For that reason I would not use KimKim again unless they were willing to give me a price breakdown. Otherwise, the lodging choices were excellent; all transfers went smoothly; we loved the sunset cruise set up by Antonis (best we have ever been on) and we enjoyed our trip tremendously. Thanks KimKim!

This trip couldn’t have been possible without Angela at KIMKIM! Her expertise, knowledge, attention to detail and communication was top notch. Our family vacation was the perfect mix of activity and relaxation…in Crete, Santorini, and Athens. The accommodations were all different and lovely for our family of five. Transportation between locations and for excursions were perfectly planned with no missteps. Alexander did a great job with our all day private tour of Crete. Highly recommend! He’s fun, funny, full of expression and knows Crete intimately. The catamaran swim day/sunset cruise in Santorini was a must and amazingly beautiful. Our accommodations here were a favorite…we could see the sunrise, sunset and the sea from our balcony!!! The Athens ancient history ruins and mythology tour was super informative and something we will never forget. We can’t wait to go back to explore more of the Greek Islands. We would recommend KIMKIM to help plan your next bucket list getaway and Angela specifically if you are going to Greece!

the trip was amazing however we were not happy with the tour van and hotel in Santorini.

The tour guide who was supposed to help with the trip was late (excuse given that he wanted us to see the sunset) however he kept driving us around and we almost missed the sunset. He dropped us at a hotel next to black sand beach and wanted us to eat snacks there. If we had done that we would have missed the sunset (glad didn't listen to him ) I had to remind him to take us to the red beach. He conveniently forgot that. His tour van was no noisy and run down. With the amount of money paid I had expected better service.

Also the cave hotel in Santorini has not that great. Room had an odd smell. The service was excellent and view was great.

Naxos was an amazing recommendation. Thanks Amalia was booking that. Over all Amalia was awesome and very responsive but tour company that was partnered with in Santorini wasn't something I'd engage with again.

Didn't follow the itinerary and tried to skip major destination.

Our honeymoon was a trip I will truly never forget! Ina and the KimKim team picked all great hotels, transfers and excursions. It is very much worth having a local person to help you book the best things as there are endless options of choices in Greece. Our favorite highlights we Super Paradise Beach in Mykonos, hiking and cooking in Naxos (Spiros with Naxos Sun was an amazing guide and we learned so much about the island), and our Santorini highlights and wine tasting excursion with Gina and Constantinos with Argyos (such an amazing tour and wonderful tour guides that I will always remember). Thank you KimKim for making our honeymoon seamless and unforgettable!

Dimitris was an excellent help on my first trip to Greece. He booked us in wonderful, cute, small hotels, planned our transfers to perfection and was extremely accommodating to our needs before the trip, and as the trip was ongoing. I would certainly recommend Dimitris for anyone looking to go to Greece.

Eleni did a wonderful job providing great lodging, locations, and experiences during our trip to Greece. We had a family of four with two teenagers and got to experience a little bit of everything. We had a couple hiccups with car rentals, but that didn't take away from how well organized the whole vacation was. The team was incredibly responsive during our trip 24/7 and every guide we interacted with was the best! If I ever go to Greece again, I would be happy to work with Eleni and her team! Thank you for the memories.

So we had a private guide who took us up the back way through the forest to the castle which we thought was cool until we realized we could have just driven and parked at the castle.

The horseback riding would have been better if it hadn't just been around the town... I'm use to horseback riding being an opportunity to see countryside you normally wouldn't see by foot or car.

The best part of the edventure was when we stopped riding horses and just hung out at his place for drinks and fruit.

Local Sunset Dinner

Greece

Sunday , July 31, 2022

To Tasos, Georgia, Irene, and the entire Travel12 Support Team,

I just wanted to let you know how pleased, happy, and ultra-satisfied that I am with my KimKim/Travel12 experience.

You all are the ultimate professionals-everything was handled and executed perfectly!

Rebecca was a GODSEND with all she did to assist me in putting together this custom-made luxury Greek Honeymoon! She was an absolute joy to work with! I’ll never forget the relationship we forged. I am so grateful that I was fortunate enough to work her with on this labor of love. We spent hours and months planning and preparing-and then COVID hit and we felt compelled to postpone their honeymoon exactly one year later(Their 1st Wedding Anniversary was Sunday, June 12, 2022). I so appreciate all that you did to keep the prices the same for the trip, even a year later. They boarded their first flight of 3 to get to Greece at 0600 Monday, June 13! They returned from an ultimate luxury Greek Honeymoon on Wednesday,June 29 at 2100.

I had booked them first class seats on all of their flights-and they continued to get the “Royal Treatment” since they were picked up at the Athens airport! Precisely what I wanted!

Jacob and Anna loved the upgrade you provided for them for the Welcome dinner and they got an upgrade for their rental car to a Mercedes. They thoroughly enjoyed the private tours with fantastic tour guides. The trip included Athens, Corinth, Epidaurus, Mycenae, Nafplio, Mykonos, Naxos, Santorini, Heraklion, Rethymno, Chania, and Elafonissi Beach, and the area around Chania. This was a the perfect custom-made, fabulous island hopping trip with what I think was a very good representation of your heavenly and gorgeous country!

All of the hotels(all 5 star hotels) gave Jacob and Anna the Honeymooner’s special touches(flower petals on their bed in the shape of a heart, complimentary wine, desserts, candy, bowls of fresh fruit, etc) upon arrival to their hotel room. The breakfasts in each hotel were amazing. They loved every detail of every day that we planned, but still had plenty of free time to do what they wanted and enjoy the restaurant cuisine and shopping at all of the places they went.

I believe their favorite was their time in Naxos-they had a beautiful hotel room with a private enclosed deck with their own jacuzzi-that opened up to a private courtyard. They loved the tranquil beauty of Naxos, and of course, the food! It was so nice that they were able to be at Agia Anna Beach(especially for Anna!)-what a nice touch!

Also they thoroughly enjoyed the small group(6 other people besides them)experiences of the Cooking Class and also the Olive Oil and Wine Tasting Tours in Crete. Just all the way around fantastic!

I can’t tell you how much happiness this trip has given me to have things go so smoothly and have all of the details taken care of by your team! They had a most memorable honeymoon and most certainly the trip of their lifetime! Jacob is my only child and I wanted to give him and his wife Anna the VERY BEST; and I want to thank you for providing that experience for them.

Tasos, I want to thank you for answering the phone on that Day 1 at a time that I’m sure was after hours for you and giving me the information and clarification that I needed-you were so patient and calming. Thank you to all of the support staff that responded to my questions and also reaching out to Jacob and Anna with details and guidance for everything they needed!

The other thing that I want to thank Tasos for is that even with Rebecca no longer being part of Travel12, and with the Covid pandemic and all of the resulting things that were affected-you were able to flawlessly and seamlessly make sure everything in the original trip remained the same-or even better!

You have an excellent system of communication! It is greatly appreciated.

Jacob and Anna kept in touch with me and sent pictures during the time they were there-they looked so happy in every photo. And Anna told me that this trip was a dream come true for her. They loved every minute of this 16 day trip.

I was really able to enjoy this trip vicariously-first by planning it and making sure all of the details were taken care of with your help-and then being able to see the joy and excitement that Jacob and Anna experienced-it was everything I hoped for and more!

By the way, the week that Jacob returned home, he told me how much he missed the Greek Food!

In Gratitude,

Cindy Henert

Every interaction thst we had only added magic to our trip. A truly mythical experience. Can't say enough about Greece and everything that kim kim provided. Thank you for your undivided attention. Your team was so remarkable!!!

Chris did a terrific job making arrangements for meals, tours and transportation. He seemed to be on call 24 hrs each day. Very responsive. Very good at communicating.
We still have some financial issues left to sort out.

There is absolutely nothing bad I could say about my whole experience with booking this trip through KimKim and Travel12. Everything was EXCEPTIONAL.

My trip was initially postponed because of Covid and then a personal emergency caused really last minute re-bookings and changes to my itinerary. In all the shuffling and change requests, Tasos and his team did not miss a beat nor did they steer me wrong. They guided me fully and I honestly felt truly looked after. I gave Tasos the specifics of what I needed and I got that and more. So if you truly are honest about what you want, you will not be disappointed. Tasos and his team will likely even exceed your expectations!

My accommodations, transfers and even the various versions of my tours/itinerary were carefully detailed and perfectly thought out. The places we stayed, tours/transfers we did, were simply fabulous.

Every question or concern I had was addressed in a timely manner and I felt they genuinely cared about my situation and particularities.

I experienced just a taste of Greece this time and I will not hesitate to use Tasos again for my next trip!

We love our trip to Greece. We visited Athens, Naxos and Santorini in 12 days. Amalia prepared the personalized program. It was really an amazing trip, highlighting Ancient Greece, touring Athens and the islands and the culinary side of Greece. At the same time we had sufficient free time for shopping with our teenager’s or relax and enjoy the beaches on the island.
