Kimkim Trip Reviews for Italy

We used kimkim to help us plan our honeymoon to Italy (Rome, Venice, Amalfi Coast). The entire process from start to finish was so easy for us - all thanks to Valeria! We had an initial consultation with her to discuss what we were hoping for out of the trip and the trip itinerary she created did not disappoint. We spent 12 magical days in Italy and every part of the trip was seamless. It felt like our trip was dummy proof, haha -- because it was so well organized. Our travel leader based on Rome, Daniela, was so amazing - we were able to ask her any questions we had through Whatsapp while we were on our trip, which was so helpful. It was a wonderful honeymoon and we would 100% book through kimkim again in the future!

Sonia and Barbera were amazing and made my trip with my wife for our anniversary wonderful. Very responsive and always willing to help. We are so thankful for them and their services for us.

As a whole, what you all planned was good. I am not pleased that you all forgot to pick us up at a train station. It was hot and we paid too much for this level of unprofessionalism. This issue is compounded by the steep pricing.

Our two weeks spent in Italy were absolutely amazing! Kim Kim and our guide Eleni handled all the details big and small from transportation, tours, and hotels. This made everything so easy knowing that everything was pre-arranged and handled for us. We highly recommend using KimKim for your travel. While in Italy the team was very responsive and kept us up to date if anything changed. The tours we had arranged were absolutely fantastic and all of our guides were wonderful and made sure we had a great time and experience.

We could not have been more pleased with Andrea. So grateful KimKim connect us to him as our trip to Italy was a thousand times more fun, interesting, rewarding, beautiful and relaxing than had we tried to do it ourselves or had used a travel agent or tour operator from the U.S. Andrea was wonderfully communitive, a great listener, and designed the perfect trip for our family based on our conversations. Andrea pointed us to all the places we wanted to be - including parts of Italy we had never heard of, but have become our favorites. On the ground, the tour guides were lovely, transfers perfectly execute, and the restaurant recommendations alone were worth the cost of our trip. While we were in Italy, Andrea was always a text away to answer questions and he graciously scrambled to help with a last minute request. My only regret from our trip is that we didn't get to meet and thank Andrea in person.

We are so glad that we chose Kimkim to arrange our Italy vacation this summer. Everything was very well planned and we were in constant communication with Jessica (who was awesome). We did Venice, Rome and Sorrento in 9 days and Maria Grazia has a very well planned itinerary for us where we covered a lot of ground as well as she planned enough time in between for us to do things at our own pace. Loved it and can't wait to plan our next vacation through Kimkim. Ciao :).

Our trip to Italy was a long time coming! I worked with KimKim Travel and Marianne for over 2.5 years, through the cancellation and uncertainty of the pandemic. We finally were able to go in June 2022. We went to Venice, Florence, Rome, and Amalfi.
I most appreciated coordinating all of the transport among cities. We took trains, private cars, boats, taxis! We had a hiccup with one of our drivers and the employees on the ground helped us in real time to rebook our train. It's really amazing to have real time support when (not if) things don't go according to plan.

We loved the pace of the trip- I would definitely recommend spending 3 nights in each place, but definitely no fewer than 2 nights. Otherwise, you will really feel rushed. They scheduled tours of the Vatican museums (note- St. Peter's Basilica is no longer included in the Vatican Museum tour, so get separate skip-the-line tickets for that). Our tour guide Martina was amazing!
Our guides in general were all very good. We really enjoyed our golf cart tour of Rome- definitely a good way to see a lot in a short amount of time.
Our hotels were in very central locations and all included breakfast- a must when in Europe in my opinion.
Overall, I would highly recommend KimKim travel to book your Italian vacation!

Our family had an amazing trip to Sorrento and Rome, Italy. Everyone we met was kind and helpful. I want to thank all the people who helped us get to all our stops on our itinerary. The drivers, Luigi, Vincenzo, Carmine, & Tony were on time and always ready to give us help on navigating our trip.
Our guides, Emma & Carlo (Mt Vesuvius), Giovanni (Pompeii), Lucca (Path of Gods), Vincenzo (Vatican) were all extremely knowledgable and friendly. Our boat trip to Capri with Antonino was amazing. Lunch and wine tasting at Tenuta San Francesco winery in Tramonte, the wine and food prepared by the family was a once in a lifetime experience. Lunch and wine tasting in Pompeii with Salvatore was wonderful. The pizza making class at Al Grottino in Rome with Tony and Julia was fun and delicious. The staff at our hotels, Hotel Capodimonte Sorrento and 47 Boutique Hotel Rome were so helpful with directions and dinner reservations. A final thanks to our trip planners Fabio, Lisa and Daniella, you thought of everything and we enjoyed all of it!
Grazie mille! The Pinsonault Family

Wow, wow, wow!! Sonia planned an incredible 17 day trip for me and my family. We wanted a mix of athletic adventures, cultural highlights, and exploring off the beaten path - and boy did she deliver. We started at a spa in Lake Garda, hiked in the Dolomites, biked through Tuscany, had amazing local guides in Verona, Venice and Rome, and the hotels we stayed in were superb. The vineyards and small towns in Chianti we visited were spectacular, our drivers were informative and the food everywhere was divine.
I would absolutely recommend Sonia and kimkimtravel.

Firstly, I have to give a huge thank you to Andrijana. She not only helped me put this absolutely amazing journey to Venice, Florence, Pisa, Sorrento and Rome with my grandchildren possible but she was able to secure me the best of rooms in all the hotels I had requested. Our tour guides were amazing and I got compliments from them on my grandchildren re how they listened, responded to questions and never once used their cell phones for texting only for taking pictures. Our drivers were polite and always there on time to take us to our destination. Venice and Sorrento were are absolute favourite places to visit. Our hotel in Rome was absolutely exquisite and relaxing after a full day at the Vatican and St. Peters Basilica Tour. This holiday was absolutely perfect, all to the thanks of Kim Kim and their wonderful Traveller Support Team at Travel 12. I want to thank Elena and Marianna for picking up the pieces of my trip when Andrijana left - you did a superb job making this trip so easy for me with literally no stress. My grandchildren and I had a trip of a life time. Thank you and I most definitely will be using Kim Kim again for my next adventure.
Best Regards to all of you - Judy, Olivia, Hillary, Dylan and Emerson❤️

My husband & I used KimKim to plan our honeymoon & I highly recommend their services. Giustino & his team focused on what we wanted for our trip & planned the perfect itinerary. They also provided contacts if we needed anything while in Italy. Our trip was everything we dreamed it would be. We did a wine tour a Le Potazzine in Montalcino & our guide Duccio was great. He was very informative, friendly, & gave us a great local spot to eat at for lunch. In Rome we had 2 guided tours, a walking tour with Lorenzo, & colosseum tour with Maria. Both tours guides were so knowledgeable & extremely friendly. I definitely recommend the guided tours because we learned much more than we would’ve if we did it ourselves. We will definitely use KimKim for our future travels

AMAZING ESPECIALLY IN A POST COVID TRAVEL RUSH! THEY DID EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO MAKE SURE IT WAS A SMOOTH AS POSSIBLE. MAGICAL DESTINATIONS, HOTELS AND OVERALL FANTASTIC SERVICE!

Everything was very well planned for us. We did a lot in a small amount of time. We enjoyed the different locations each one having a different vibe and things to offer. The guides were very good, Maria- Paula in Rome, Santi at the Vatican, Simona in Florence, Antonio in Pompeii. Each guide was different in their approach and added to the experience. All the private transfers were very good and relaxing and the drivers were very skilled. Thanks to Andrea for a great itinerary. We especially enjoyed the hospitality of Manuela at the hotel Villa Della Palme, she really looked after us. We would definitely recommend KimKim to friends and family.

My family and I just completed a three week tour of Italy , with stays in Lake Como, Milan, Florence, Rome, Amalfi Coast, and Taormina Sicily.
Jessica Proietti , at Story Walking Tours, worked closely with me to make sure the hotels, tours, activities restaurants met and exceeded our expectations.
While we were Italy she was in contact with us each step of the way making certain that each event went off as planned and she accommodated slight changes we made o the fly.
I am a seasoned traveler, and I would rate the activities she planned for us, the hotels and restaurants she selected and the services provide by Jessica a 10 on a scale of 10.
I am very pleased that we used Story Walking Tors and will recommend Jessica and her agency to all my friends who intend to travel to Italy in the future.

Eleni is amazing!!! We will defintly use her on our next rtip. The whole team is great. Great follow up. I have already recommended them to several friends

Our 12-day trip to Italy was wonderful! I recommend Eleni at kimkim 100%.

Our Group:
We had four kids (aged 5, 6, 7, & 8) plus two sets of parents, and three grandparents. So we had a total of 11 people. One of the adults had limited mobility in walking. The tour was very personalized to our group. There was a special focus on engaging the kids so they would enjoy the tour.

Our Specialist:
Eleni was our specialist and she really knew exactly how to plan a trip for our specific groups. She took into consideration our budget, our needs, and our interests. It didn't feel like a generic tour, it felt very personalized to us. She was very responsive and helpful at all times. I can't imagine a better person to plan our trip. She took care of everything.

The Hotels:
We stayed in hotels in Venice, Florence, and Rome. All three were excellent, with fantastic rooms, fantastic breakfast, and fantastic service!

The Experience:
We had a series of tour experiences in each location. Every tour guide was knowledgeable, helpful, accommodating to the needs and interests of our group, and kid-friendly. We especially loved day trips, the scavenger hunt-style tours for our kids, and the activities we had in each location: Mask making in Venice, Gelato making in Florence, and Mosaic making and pasta making in Rome. The transfers were seamless.

Overall:
Members of our group regularly looked at each other and said, "Can you believe how fantastic this tour is?!" We loved every aspect of it. The kimkim team was super responsive. When we had questions or little issues we could contact them and get help immediately. Once we got off the plane in Venice, up until the final transfers to the airport in Rome on the very last day, everything was so smooth. We were completely taken care of every step of the way, through three major cities and multiple day trips. We had no stress. The tour was the perfect pace for our group. We all loved it!!! Additionally, I priced out a 12-day Italian tour for our group through several tour companies before choosing kimkim, This tour was the best value of all those I priced out. Kimkim is now my go-to tour company.

Eleni planned an amazing trip to Italy for my family! Everything from the planning stages to the spectacular trip start to finish was superb. The experiences were so enjoyable and engaging for the whole family (4 teenagers included)- especially the private tour guides through Rome (Giovanni and Lorenzo), Pompeii (Mina), and Naples (Frederica). Each one had great personality and local insight. We learned so much, laughed a lot, and had a ball. My favorite part was a stunning and breathtaking boat tour of the Sorrento and Amalfi Coasts with our skipper, Paolo. Another highlight was the pasta making class with our wonderful chef, Leo. Each hotel was perfect and unique with an attentive and helpful staff. Our drivers were always on time, pleasant, and had lots of local insight. We had a little mixup on our trip back but the KimKim team handled it immediately. It was so helpful to have extra people from the team available to help if we needed anything during the trip. I would not want to plan another trip without Eleni and the team. Thank you for the trip of a lifetime!

This was our first time using KimKim, but we plan to use the service again in the future. It was so easy to communicate with out agent, Marianne, and we had a wonderful trip to Italy.

We were easily able to share what our desires/plans were, including specific dates and locations, and what types of activities we wanted to do. Marianne and her team put together a great itinerary that covered what we requested. We were able to stay in contact with Marianne even after booking to make small changes (our flights were changed so that we arrived earlier and were able to request an additional tour the afternoon we arrived). Additionally, when one tour was canceled due to the leader testing positive for COVID, Marianne immediately contacted me with new arrangements for another tour. We were greeted at our first hotel with our printed vouchers, itinerary, and even souvenir books for the two areas we visited in Italy. One of the easiest parts of the trip was that our hotels and train travel was booked, as well as private tours, so we didn't have to worry at all about these details once we were in the country. Additionally, with the private tours, we skipped the long lines, which in addition to the phenomenal tour guides, was well worth the cost. We look forward to using KimKim to book a similar trip in the future!

Impero Hotel Rome

Rome

The location of the hotel was great- very close to the train station, and within walking distance of many of the central Rome attractions, and even had a variety of restaurants all around the block. The toilet didn't flush well, and didn't improve after we informed staff, but there happened to be an extra bathroom near our room for the meeting rooms, so it was fine. The breakfast was large, and erred on the side of boring and Americanized, but was good enough to start the day. The air conditioning was very welcome!

Martina did an amazing job! We had a tour with Martina from RomeGuides the day before at the Colosseum and Forum, and touring with her a second time was a great experience. She was able to connect the history we had experienced at the Colosseum and Forum with all (SO much) we were seeing at the Vatican. Rather than just going through room by room and pointing out art, she wove a story that pulled everything together, culminating in the papal suites. We do wish we had had more time to see the modern art collection at the Vatican museums (which we didn't know existed until Martina briefly walked us through), but there was so much to take in, we would have probably needed another tour!
