Gustavo helped me plan a fantastic trip to Greece for our family. He patiently worked with me to craft a the itinerary for the unique trip I had in mind, spanning the North to the South, that I would have been hesitant to plan on my own. The Kimkim app and chat/comment functions made planning the trip so much easier than the typical email back and forth, as I could see the detail in all of the hotels and tours we were considering. When I needed to speak in person to Gustavo, that was easy to schedule as well.

All of the guides on our trip were amazing and extremely knowledgeable. Two of our guides (in Mycenae and Monemvasia) were even trained archeologists! Our hiking guides in Meteora and Bali Canyon were experienced guides as was our river rafting guide in the North and our kayaking guide in Epidaurus. We loved our truffle hunting and pasta lunch in the forest as well as our Acropolis tasting tour (a great way to stay awake on our arrival day)! The positives are truly too numerous to mention.

The hotels we picked with assistance from Gustavo all met or exceeded expectations, and each of our car transfers were seamlessly executed, to our pleasant surprise. Communications while in country were easy and responsive when we inquired about making some adjustments for transfers during the course of the trip.

I would not hesitate to use Kimkim again for our next trip and recommend them without reservation!

Our 10-day journey through Greece was the perfect way to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. From the moment we arrived until our final sunset in Santorini, every detail was thoughtfully planned by Marianna, who created an experience that balanced history, culture, adventure, relaxation, and unforgettable memories.

Over the course of our trip, we visited Athens, Milos, and Santorini, accumulating an impressive 101,721 steps along the way. Somewhere between climbing the Acropolis, wandering the historic streets of Athens, exploring the breathtaking beaches of Milos, enjoying food tours through local neighborhoods, sailing through the Santorini caldera, and completing the famous caldera hike, I began to appreciate the wisdom of the Greek philosophers. Socrates encouraged us to examine life. Greece gave us 101,721 opportunities to do exactly that.

Athens was the perfect introduction to Greece. Standing atop the Acropolis and looking across a city that has shaped Western civilization for thousands of years was both humbling and inspiring. Our food tours introduced us to the flavors that define Greek culture, where every meal felt less like dining and more like participating in a tradition that has been passed down through generations.

Milos captured our hearts with its authentic charm and stunning natural beauty. We spent hours exploring picturesque villages, relaxing on extraordinary beaches, and discovering hidden corners of the island. One of the highlights was visiting the beautiful castle overlooking the island, where the panoramic views of the Aegean Sea created one of those rare moments that no photograph can fully capture.

Santorini provided a spectacular finale. Sailing through the caldera offered a unique perspective of the island’s dramatic volcanic landscape, while the caldera hike rewarded us with some of the most breathtaking views we have ever experienced. Every turn seemed to reveal another scene worthy of a postcard.

Beyond the scenery and historic sites, what impressed us most were the Greek people themselves. Everywhere we traveled, we met individuals who were deeply proud of their heritage and genuinely eager to share it. Whether speaking with local guides, restaurant owners, shopkeepers, or fellow travelers, we experienced a level of warmth and hospitality that made us feel welcomed rather than simply accommodated. Their love for their history was contagious, and their stories brought every destination to life.

Of course, no trip to Greece would be complete without experiencing its culinary staples. Fresh seafood, local cheeses, traditional pastries, olive oil, and dishes prepared from recipes perfected over generations became highlights of our daily adventures. Every meal was an opportunity to learn something new about the culture.

As Aristotle wrote, “Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work.” That perfectly describes Marianna’s approach to planning this trip. Her attention to detail, responsiveness, and thoughtful recommendations transformed a vacation into a once-in-a-lifetime anniversary celebration.

We returned home with incredible memories, a deeper appreciation for Greece’s remarkable history and culture, and 101,721 steps worth of stories. For anyone considering a journey to Greece, I cannot recommend Marianna and Kimkim highly enough.

Agali Houses
Firostefani 00

Agali Houses delivered a flawless experience from check-in to check-out. The hospitality was exceptional, with a team that was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely committed to making every moment special. The rooms were stunning. Spacious, elegant, and beautifully designed, they perfectly captured the charm and aesthetics of Santorini while providing every modern comfort imaginable. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, creating an atmosphere that felt both luxurious and relaxing. The sunsets were simply unforgettable. Somehow, each evening’s view seemed even more breathtaking than the one before. Watching the sun melt into the Aegean Sea became the highlight of every day and a memory we will cherish for years. The room offered every creature comfort we could ask for, making it easy to unwind and enjoy the beauty surrounding us. Each morning, breakfast was a wonderful bonus, featuring fresh, delicious selections that started every day on the perfect note. Agali Houses is more than just a hotel. It is an experience defined by beauty, comfort, and world-class hospitality. If you’re visiting Santorini and looking for an unforgettable stay, this is the place.

My Daughter and I have just returned from the most amazing vacation to Greece that was booked through KimKim and was organised and taken care of 100% by Eirini.
We have loved Mamma Mia the movie and show since we saw it, my Daughters dream has been to go to Skiathos and Skopelos so Eirini made it happen. We explained what we wanted and Eirini came back with the most amazing trip that we have ever been on. Every step of the way was perfect starting off in Athens bring picked up from the airport and taken to The Foundry suites. We met the beautiful Elena who was our tour guide for the afternoon at the Acropolis and ending at one of the red that Eirini had recommended that we loved.
We were picked up and dropped off to every location along the way. In Skiathos we had a private boat tour around Skopelos and Skiathos stopping along the way to swim if we wished, take in the sights and having an amazing lunch cooked by the captain.
Then a ferry over to Skopelos for three nights staying at Minno and having again an amazing tour of all the Mamma Mia filming sites before enjoying the afternoon on Kastani beach. We had plenty of time to relax even though it was a full on trip. We’ve made the most amazing memories.
I will be booking a holiday again through Kimkim and will be reaching out to Eirini for our next adventure to Greece.

Thank you Eirini for all that you did for us

We recently returned from an amazing trip to Greece planned through Kimkim, and I can't recommend them highly enough.

First, the app was fantastic. I'll admit, I was hesitant about downloading "yet another app," but it ended up being one of the most valuable parts of the trip. Everything was incredibly well organized and easy to navigate. Having the itinerary broken down day by day took all the stress out of travel. There was no constant checking, verifying, or figuring out logistics. Each evening, I could simply open the app and immediately see what the next day held—activities, times, transportation details, and recommendations. It made traveling feel effortless.

The hotels selected for us were excellent throughout the trip. Our favorite hotel was in Naxos, which offered a wonderful combination of comfort, location, and hospitality. As for the islands themselves, Milos was our favorite destination. Its stunning scenery, unique beaches, and laid-back atmosphere made it unforgettable.

One thing that really stood out was how often fellow travelers asked about our itinerary and how organized everything seemed. I ended up telling several people about Kimkim and even showed them the app. Every one of them said they would definitely check it out for future travel planning.

Overall, Kimkim made our Greece trip smooth, stress-free, and memorable. I would absolutely use them again and 100% recommend them to anyone planning a trip.

The hotel is very nice. The lobby is a bit tired, but I think having everything white makes keeping it looking 100% nearly impossible. While the staff were all nice, the vibe was kind of "trying to be more cosmopolitan that we really are". While there were common areas for guests the gather, there were signs like "no eating or drinking here", which kind of makes you not want to hang out and talk to people!

Authenticity & Character
The hotel has kind of a "stuffy" or unwelcoming vibe. The lobby area is pretty, but a little tired. The breakfast area and seating is also very nice, but the overall feeling is "don't hang out here".

The location is good, a little noisy as it's on a busy side road - we had a balcony on the street side, and I'm betting that the Garden side is much quieter. The garden is lovely - quiet, peaceful, clean, with tables and seating. There are nice beaches and many restaurants all very close by, as well as grocery stores, and it's a 10 minute walk to the port/ferry/bus area.

Hotel Grotta
Naxos

FANTASTIC from the moment we stepped in the door. Super friendly, like visiting friends. The entire staff went out of the their way to provide excellent service and whatever level of interaction you preferred was matched. The breakfast is SO much food - all prepared fresh each day. Baked goods, sweets, savory, cereals...literally SO much to choose from. The porch on our room overlooked the natural field next door and the sea below - stunning, peaceful, safe - perfect. The hot tub and heated pool that we could reserve for private use was fantastic after our long days of sight-seeing, walking, hiking and exploring.

Authenticity & Character
The architecture is perfect, what you think of when you think "Greek island". The interior spaces are gorgeous - everything is so well-thought out and in theme. They did an amazing job with the decor.
Location
Gorgeous views very close walk to town and so quiet.

Every single person we interacted with was friendly, happy, helpful and kind.

Clean doesn't even begin to tell the story - immaculate is a better description. Every surface is washed every day. Literally. Floors, porches, chairs, tables, windows - this hotel is amazing.
NLH Monastiraki
Athens

Nice hotel. Excellent location for "seeing the sights", but because of that, it's in a crowded, bustling area. Our room was also right next to the elevator, which didn't help with noise. Spacious room, comfy bed, a nice little balcony - overall, a good experience. The breakfast buffet was extensive and fresh each day. And they staff were all helpful and pleasant. Noise is the reason for the 4 and not a 5.

Authenticity & Character
Very comfortable. More modern than "authentic" in design.
Location
Only a few blocks to the "main attractions" of Athens and very walkable to many neighborhoods and ruins.
Staff
helpful, friendly, nice to chat with.
Cleanliness & Comfort
Very clean, just a little "worn around the edges", ie - frayed towels and curtains.

E-Bike Exploration of Milos Highlights and Beaches
E-Bike Exploration of Milos Highlights and Beaches
Milos

The E-Bike Exploration of Milos Highlights and Beaches was one of our favorite activities in Greece. Our guide had a very relaxed, easygoing style that made the tour enjoyable from start to finish. He was knowledgeable about the island and shared plenty of information at each stop, but never overdid it or turned the experience into a lecture. What we especially appreciated was that he quickly recognized that our group of four were experienced cyclists. Rather than making us ride at a very slow pace, he allowed us to have some fun on the bikes while still keeping the group safe and together. It struck the perfect balance between sightseeing and actually enjoying the ride. We never felt rushed and were given plenty of time at each stop to take photos, explore, and enjoy the scenery. As an added bonus, he shared a local treat with us, which was a thoughtful touch and added to the authentic feel of the experience. If you're looking for a fun, active way to see Milos with a knowledgeable and adaptable guide, this tour is highly recommended.

This was a lot of fun - we took the Ferry directly from Parikia to Antiparos and then the ferry to Nousa and the bus back to Parikia. Somehow we decided to follow a couple that looked like they knew where they were going on Antiparos, and we ended up on the only nude beach on the island! It happened to be right next to the Camping Antiparos, where they kindly lent us a sun umbrella and directed us to a lovely, completely empty beach right off a post card.

Guided E-Bike Excursion Around Paros
Guided E-Bike Excursion Around Paros
Paros

We were disappointed with the Paros E-Bike Tour because it did not match the experience that was advertised. The tour was supposed to last approximately four hours, but our experience was under two hours. We also did not visit any of the sites listed in the tour description, which was a major reason we booked it in the first place. The description mentioned local food, but the only snack provided was a packaged power bar. We were also expecting water bottles, which were not provided, although the guide did offer us lemonade during one of our stops. We rode to Monastiri Beach and were directed toward the hike to the lighthouse, but were only given 30 minutes to complete it, which simply wasn't enough time to fully enjoy the walk and the views before needing to return. Our guide was very pleasant and friendly, but she seemed somewhat distracted throughout the tour. She took several phone calls and frequently discussed a cooking class she was hosting later that evening, emphasizing how important it was because it involved 15 guests and significant revenue. Unfortunately, this left us feeling as though our tour was not her primary focus. Overall, the e-bikes were fun and Paros is beautiful, but the experience fell well short of the advertised itinerary, duration, and inclusions.

Naxos

We enjoyed our Private Hike to the Mountain of Zeus and found our guide to be friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the area. He shared interesting information about the history, landscape, and local culture throughout the hike. The only reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is that the pace was slower than we would have preferred. There were quite a few stops along the way and more time spent resting at the summit than we needed. Since we're from Colorado, the elevation wasn't a factor for us and we're both experienced, fit hikers who would have enjoyed moving at a faster pace. That said, the scenery was beautiful, the guide was excellent, and it was a memorable way to experience Naxos.

My cousin and I decided to go to Greece on short notice. Since we didn’t have time to do our usual planning we decided to let kimkim plan the itinerary and do the logistics. We told them we liked “off the beaten path” and they found beautiful unique places for us to go. All the guides were knowledgeable and delightful. Will definitely use kimkim in the future.

The entire trip was memorable, but I would have to say one of my favorite memories was in Lemeni - it was like a fairytale
The guides are all knowledgeable. I just wish my memory was better for their names.

I did not know what to expect in the southern part of Greece. I didn’t expect all the mountains, loved the small villages— it was really beautiful. We had a great time. Thank you for planning such a wonderful trip.

Viewing the caldera and the cities of Santorini from the water is magnificent. You learn a bit of history while experiencing breathtaking views! It was a bit on the cool side the day we went but my adult children still swam! The lunch / dinner was adequate. The sunset was spectacular!! *** our transport driver drove like a maniac. It made many of the ticket holders uncomfortable. While I can see why the transports back down the hill toward the port I don’t believe the driver needed to accelerated in reverse ***
