Kimkim Trip Reviews for Iceland

This was our first time working with a travel agency and we enjoyed the experience. We had a great time and we feel we saw a lot more with Adam’s itineraries than we would have if we planned the trip ourselves. The car and the hotels and apartments he picked for us were perfect and we felt really comfortable the whole trip, which says a lot since we had definite budget constraints. Highlights were Skaftafell Nature Preserve, Svinafellsjokull, Vik, the Westman Islands, and Olafsvik. We are grateful for everything and we will reach out again when we are ready to plan our next trip! Thanks!

We had a short amount of time to plan our trip, and Alicia came through with great suggestions and wonderful accommodations. We particularly enjoyed the Puffins and Volcanos tour with Ebbi on the Westman Islands! Alicia was responsive and knowledgeable, and it's hard to pick a favorite part of our trip as everything was wonderful in very different ways! The only things that kept the experience from being a 5/5 review were finding out when we got to our hotel in the Westman Islands that we were on the 3rd floor of a hotel with no elevator (and a lot of heavy luggage), and not having clearer check in instructions attached to our reservation at the Glacier View Guesthouse. I also had to spend several hours plotting out drive times between each attraction and average time spent at each, in order to ensure we'd arrive at our timed destinations on time and not miss out on anything. Having this information available ahead of time would have saved me several hours of work, but I'm glad I took the time to do it as it made our trip much less stressful!

Most incredible trip ever! I wanted to plan this trip right … an unforgettable 7 days in Iceland with my family. It was daunting. And then I found Noga at KimKim. Wow! Wow! Wow! Our trip was flawless. From the perfectly planned itinerary that catered to our interests, to extra tips along the way and details I didn’t realize I’d need to know, to the easy messaging app and phone calls we had to make sure we had everything perfect and could ask questions … perfection. All of our scheduled events and hotels were also flawless. The team reached out to us while on our trip to check in and to even alert us of an erupting volcano that was happening on the island but researched and reassured us that it wouldn’t be affecting our itinerary and flights home. I would 100% recommend KimKim and Noga’s expertise to plan a trip to Iceland.

Eric put together a great itinerary for our group of 7, with age ranges from 9 to 77. We were able to travel together in a large 4x4 van. The accommodations were very nice and ranged from cabins, to villas, to downtown apartments. Eric was able to put together an itinerary that allowed for both shared activities and separate activities based on physical capabilities. All the information provided was detailed, clear, and really made for a nice, relaxing, but also very adventurous trip. In 8 days, we were able to see many of the highlights of Iceland, but also had plenty of time for exploring and side missions. Overall fantastic trip!

Everything was amazing and Hanna did an outstanding job preparing the trips and daily itineraries. The only suggestion I have and I should have caught this myself was the first day required me to drive after my overnight flight. I should have stayed in Reykjavík that first day but that was my fault not Hanna’s

As a single parent, it was tough for me to design a trip while working and doing housework. My girls were excited about visiting Iceland, but I was overwhelmed with options/decisions to be made. That's where Emanuela came to our rescue! She responded quickly with a great plan that the kids loved. Once we arrived in Iceland, she was communicative and responded quickly if I had questions or concerns.

We left feeling that we got a good first taste of Iceland -- now we want to go back!

short bus ride to the start of the river rafting--the bus was a bit rustic, but part of the fun experience.

Our family of four had a fantastic week in Iceland, thanks to Gummi’s thoughtful recommendations and expert trip planning. From catching an error in our flight booking to promptly answering questions along the way, his professionalism and good humor were much appreciated.

Be sure to get a rental car with the Wi-Fi package—it made accessing maps and travel info on the go so much easier (and kept the teenagers happy, too). Speaking of maps, Gummi’s daily trip guides were incredibly helpful. Each morning, we could simply hop in the car, knowing our route was already planned out.

The accommodations along the way suited both parents and teens, giving everyone space to relax and recharge. Highlights of the trip included the stunning sights along the South Shore—Glacier Lagoon, Reynisfjara, and Seljalandsfoss—as well as a scenic stretch of gravel road (AWD!!) that led us to Fitjarfoss and a beautiful overlook of Uxavatn during our drive from Húsafell to the Golden Circle.

We loved the entire trip..except for the parking app snafus. The ice cave and lava show were stand outs. The huge vistas, mountains, waterfalls, landscapes were amazing. Horses and Sheep everywhere, very enjoyable as we drove through the countryside.

Loved seeing goats at the lava hotel. We got to see gummi our travel agent when going to the ice caves so that was really cool. When boating in glacier lagoon, we saw a bunch of cute seals. The puffins were extremely cute to see also. Lots of cool waterfalls. The first apartment we stayed in had a really comfy mattress. Loved the trip ^^

I feel like Rinolda was over-worked or overwhelmed or something; she was slow to get back to us, a little snappy, and repeatedly did not listen/ absorb what we were saying about our arrival dates being staggered. I wouldn't use the service again; we spent more time going back and forth with her than we would have actually planning it ourselves.

The entire trip was amazing. The itinerary set up very well. All of the tours and guides were fantastic. The glacier walk was very interesting and the kayaking beautiful. We especially enjoyed the whale watching trip. The guide and Captain were both exceptional and made it very fun. We loved how close we were able to get to the whales We were lucky to enjoy good weather on all the tour days as well. One of our favorite spots was the Við Lónið Guesthouse, and the town of Seyðisfjörður.

The only issue we encountered was the Torg GuestHouse. Once we got it, the room was so small that there was barely any space for our luggage or to walk around. There was also construction going on around the square so it just didn't have a good feel.

All the other hotels were great to nice and we enjoyed our stay at each - especially the ones that had pools to lounge in.

Our trip to Iceland was incredible. We were 6 adults who travelled the Ring Road, 2550kms in total! We were fortunate to have Gummi as our travel advisor and local fixer. From start to finish, Gummi was a great help. WE had only two issues during our entire trip and Gummi was very quick to respond and to smooth out the problems. He picked some wonderful hotels for us to stay in. Our favourites were the Hotel Ranga, Hotel Jokulsarlon, and the Hotel Husafell. He arranged for us to drive a Toyota Proace via Blue Car Rentals, which was perfect for the group. It was quite easy on fuel too. Our tours were also quite good, although the Katla ice cave is less of a cave and ore of a smaller hole due to ice melting and deterioration. All of our small tour guides were terrific. The lava cave experience in Vidgelmir was particularly fantastic. Also important were the detailed notes that Gummi provided about parking, facilities at the places we visited, and other relevant information. Our days were quite filled, and we mostly felt like we saw the main highlights of Iceland, and a bit more. That said, by the latter part of our trip, we opted not to drive around the entire Snaefellnes peninsula in order to enjoy a more leisurely day. Gummi arranged for us to experience four of the famous Iceland thermal baths. I added two more: the Secret Lagoon and the Lysulauger algae bath. For some of the group, it was their first and only trip to Iceland; for others, we will return again!

If your going to Iceland, using KimKim ask for Guðmundur Óli . He was great to work with.... had all our MUST HAVES... and the just all the extras.

It was an AWSOME 9 days in Iceland.

We had a fantastic experience planning our Iceland trip through kimkim. I came across the site while trying to pull together some initial plans for a trip to Iceland, and I'm so glad I did. Our agent, Gummi (Gudmundur Oli), was incredibly helpful and always timely with responses. We discussed our price range, what we liked to do on vacation, and what we were hoping to see in Iceland. He really listened to what we wanted from the trip and built a personalized plan that we fine-tuned together. Once our flights were booked, Gummi handled everything else. The daily travel links with all our stops on Google maps and time-specific schedules he provided were a game changer, helping us stay on track and make the most of every day.

It was an extremely smooth, thoughtful, and genuinely enjoyable experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip visiting East/South Island. Eric provided us with more than enough activities that he thought we would enjoy, and though it was not possible to see them all, Eric's choices for us were well though out. The four of us talked about our favourites, which included Studlagil Canyon's basalt columns, Thorsmork (we hiked 15 km for 5 hours), Mulagljufur Canyon (which we hiked to the top), and the Puffins at Borgarfjordur Eystri. Not organized by Eric but noteworthy for any golfers was Brautarholt Golf course...every hole was stunning and the staff was so friendly! The Katla Ice cave tour was organized by Eric and it was very interesting - our guide Jon was entertaining and informative. We enjoyed Vok Baths and Sky Lagoon when our bodies needed some TLC. We dined very well with some restaurant suggestions by Eric (Apotec, and Pakkhus in Hofn).
We appreciated Eric's attention to find lesser visited areas, for example we drove right by the very crowded Seljalandsfoss because we had Gilsafoss all to ourselves a couple days previous!
All in all, we were in awe every day at the beauty Iceland has to offer, and we will definitely use Kimkim again when we adventure again in the future! Thanks to Eric and Kimkim, well done!

The trip was very well planned for trying to squeeze a 10 day trip into 6 days. Thank you for a well planned route which allowed us to see and do almost everything in that shorten time. I will be spreading the word on your services to anyone & everyone who is planning to go to Iceland.

Iceland has long been on our bucket list, but nothing could have prepared us for just how magical this trip turned out to be. From the moment we arrived, we were swept into a world of raw, untamed beauty—towering waterfalls, black sand beaches, glittering glaciers, and moss-covered lava fields that looked like something from another planet. Every direction we turned offered a postcard-perfect view.

What truly elevated this trip into something extraordinary was our incredible guide, Gummi. Warm, professional, and impressively knowledgeable, he not only knew the land inside and out but also shared its rich history, folklore, and geology in fascinating and deeply engaging ways. My daughter and I were traveling alone and we always felt safe, cared for, and completely at ease.

A large part of our trip was was spent at Grimsstaðir farm, where we were welcomed with the kind of genuine hospitality that stays with you. The cottages were freshly built and beautifully designed, with all the essentials thoughtfully provided. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, which made it easy to relax and recharge after long rides. The owners were gracious, kind, and clearly devoted to their beautiful Icelandic horses, who were just as charming and curious as we’d hoped. Spending time with them—both horses and humans—was soul-nourishing and gave us a real glimpse into rural Icelandic life.

This trip wasn’t just a vacation—it was a transformative experience.
