Fabio did an excellent job in designing the perfect 13 day Italy trip for us based upon our requests. He gave helpful suggestions and guidance , responded quickly to our questions, and was available to help us with any need during our trip.
This was my second time using KimKim and it has been a smooth and easy process from planning to execution.

The transportation transfers and day trips were excellent and on time. The boutique hotels that Fabio selected were great.

Antonella, our walking tour guide in Florence was wonderful and we learned so much from her. The day trip to Siena and San Gimignano with a visit to a local winery was a highlight for us. Andrea, our driver, gave us so much history and background which helped us navigate each town. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit and lunch at the Winery in Tuscany.
We visited the Duomo, Santa Croce, The Leather School, The Academy, the Uffizi, and the Pitti Palace and the plaza de Michelangelo, the Ponte Vecchio, the markets and more! We also had a delicious Florentine steak at Casa Del Santo.

Our guide, Tanya, in Rome gave us an excellent tour of the Coliseum and Roman Forum. It was an amazing experience.
On our own, we strolled the streets of Trastevere and ate at Trattoria Lungaretta which was a 300 year old restaurant. Delicious. We stumbled upon a beautiful Botanical garden in Trastevere, and toured Basilica Di S. Maria. We walked all over Rome and saw the Plaza Novana, Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps ( and ate lunch at the Hassler Hotel Terrace), the Mouth of Truth, the Vittriano. Tanya, our walking tour guide, gave us an excellent tour of the Coliseum and the Roman Forum. And she also guided us through the Vatican Museums. We learned so much from her. She was excellent.

After our three days in Rome, we set off for three days in Positano in the Amalfi Coast. Breathtakingly beautiful! We enjoyed our boat trip to Capri and rode the chair lift in Ana Capri. Our guide for Pompeii was excellent as well, and we enjoyed the winery and lunch sheduled that day as well. in Positano we enjoyed an excellent dinner at Rada down on the beachfront.

Overall, our trip to Italy was a trip of a lifetime.. one that we will treasure for the rest of our lives! Thank you, Fabio and Kim Kim!

Kim Kim and especially Fabio made my first trip to Italy one to remember! The ability to tailor our tours and timing really made the trip practically stress free. All of our guides were prepared and made checking in and following along with the incredible history and local facts during the tours a pleasure. Being a wine & spirits professional and traveling with a non-drinker was no problem as our trip was curated to highlight both our wants and wishes. Moving from Rome to Florence (throughout Tuscany) and then on to Venice was exactly the right move for us and transfers were seemless.

Hotel Reviews
Hotel Cellini
Rome

The hotel staff was very accommodating when we arrived early morning. They took and held our bags and we were able to tour parts of Rome while our room was prepared.

Authenticity & Character
The room was large and well appointed.
Location
The hotel location was near everything we were there to experience and the street was busy but quiet enough for us to relax after touring.

This was one of the top experiences for me as the wine regions are what I was hoping to add to my personal repertoire and education as a Certified Specialist of Wine. Lunch on the side of the vineyard was spectacular. Tasting vinegar, Olive oil and all the incredible wines with food is the best way to learn. What a setting! It was so special to tour the vineyards and winery of Patrizia Cencioni and then to taste (and purchase) her incredible wines of Montalcino. She was available for photos and to answer questions even while spending time with her granddaughter. My heart was full when we left for Florence. Sienna and San Gimignano were so quaint and inviting we enjoyed strolling through them both.

Hotel Reviews
Residenza Il Hotel Campanile
Sorrento

While this hotel was in a good location, right in the city center, it was also very loud. Our room was beautiful with three balconies overlooking the street, however they were most unusable because passers-by could look right into the room. It was also a little difficult to find the hotel. The taxi cannot take you right to the door because its on a pedestrian street and there is only a small sign to the left of the main door indicating that it is a hotel.

Authenticity & Character
A beautiful room in a beautiful campanile. Very authentic.

The location is great if you want to be right in the middle of things but be aware that it is very loud.

They provided daily reminders of the next day’s itinerary along with any tickets/vouchers needed. I was surprised by how much I appreciated that, it kept me from spending time finding the info and making sure we had everything ready to go. They were quick to provide options and make alternate plans for us when a train strike affected our travel plans and when the weather impacted a scheduled boat tour. It really was a trip of a lifetime for us and I don’t think there’s anything I would change.
