Kimkim Trip Reviews for Spain

Overall our trip was fantastic and we appreciate all of the work you and your team put in to it to make it so, Our lodging in all three cities were great and located perfectly for walking and getting to places we wanted to go. Some of the transportation didn't run as smoothly as planned but that happens and it all worked out in the end. The two guides in Madrid were fantastic and we enjoyed them immensely. Both were informative, easy to understand and kept us entertained. We especially enjoyed the "market" tour, which really became a pub crawl but Carlos? was so good and entertaining we all had a great time. The guide in Seville was a little dry, but still informative. Hard to compete with the two we had just had in Madrid. Our time in Barcelona was also grand. The football game was a highlight as it was fun to see the passion Spain has for their teams. Transportation back from there left a lot to be desired but we eventually made it so alls well. Our guide in Barcelona was also great and We would have no hesitation in recommending her.

We loved allllll our guides especially Nuria and the gentleman who took us to the amphitheater in Merida.

The buses were great- minus the pick up in Madrid- the man was a tad gruff with us. But we loved allllll our the sights and tours and guides

Jeff reviewed for us both. We had a few items for feedback which we will schedule a quick call to discuss! Thank you for the wonderful communication and follow up. Our team was wonderful and response time was on target!

Private Extended Visit to Sagrada Família

Barcelona

Our visit to the Sagrada Família in Barcelona was amazing. The guide was knowledgeable and provided insightful information. However, having two tours in a day made it a bit overwhelming, with lots of walking and information to take in. If I were to do it again, I might book just one tour per day to have a more relaxed experience.

Our trip to Spain was wonderful! We thought all of our hotels were exactly what we asked for. Breakfast in Granada and Seville were both a little thin on options but that just might be the average in Spain. All of our guides were very good (would recommend all of them) but Ruben at the Alhambra was the best. Jesus was an amazing driver and human and we really enjoyed our day with him. If we had a do-over, we would have not gone to Nerja and Frigiliana - there wasn't enough for us to do there and both were more touristy than we like. Instead we would have done an additional day in Seville - both of us wanted more time there. Overall, a great trip - Anita did a wonderful job at planning it for us. Any changes we would make are only because we know more now that we have visited.

Hotel Reviews

H10 Villa de la Reina

Madrid

We were only here for one night. It is right on Grand Via, so right in the middle of things. Made it easy to walk to what we wanted to eat/see.

Authenticity & Character

It's pretty but not a historic property.

Location

Right in the City Center - very walkable

Staff

Had very little contact except for check-in and the AC issus

Cleanliness & Comfort

The beds were very comfortable. Our room was very hot and we had to ask the front desk for help to turn it on, since it wasn't at all intuitive.

Las Casas de la Judería

Seville

We loved our stay here. The hotel is absolutely beautiful. Our room was enormous with our own private courtyard. The local was great.

Authenticity & Character

So beautiful. It has a roof top pool and bar. While it is a little dated, it is an amazing space.

Location

Right in the middle of old town and very walkable to tons of attractions and other neighborhoods

Staff

They were nice but we didn't have much interaction with them.

Cleanliness & Comfort

While our room was absolutely enormous with a sitting room and a private courtyard the bed was very, very hard. Also, the courtyard and some of the other (lovely) public spaces had either very little or very uncomfortable furniture so while it is great that they are there, not super usable.

Hotel Casa Morisca

Granada

Beautiful, very small hotel with a great location. Breakfast could be a little bit better with some more options.

Authenticity & Character

Absolutely beautiful. Our room was on the third floor with a view of the Alhambra. A very old building with so much of the original character maintained.

Location

Right in the heart of the old part of the city. So walkable to the Alhambra and the City Center. Easy access to restaurants, etc.

Staff

The staff was fine but not overly helpful. But that said we didn't ask for much

Cleanliness & Comfort

The room was small but lovely. The bathroom is a little dated. Not a good room for anyone with mobility issues but fine for us.

The White Camel Lodge

Agafay, Marrakech

The White Camel has the potential to be amazing. However, they haven't quite figured it out yet. They didn't take a credit card on arrival, so we were expected to pay for each drink/snack etc and tip in cash which was tough at the end of the trip. Lunch was offered on the menu, but took over an hour to get served. The room was really nice but had no way to contact the front desk or ask questions. The pool was great but again no way to order a drink/snacks without tracking someone down. The dinner and live entertainment was great. The views are spectacular.

we didn't have transport and relied on a taxi.

Kim Kim’s service was attentive and pretty much immediate. The only hicup we had was timing on our pickups from the train depot. We were able to arrange our own ride in Seville.

The best part of this trip was Dalia. She was on top of things with a positive attitude. She helped us quickly and took care of the few issues that popped up.
Recommendations were very good. The kids and the older folks enjoyed the trip.
Choice of hotels also was excellent.
Except for one driver, they were all quite accommodating . The tour guides were informative and also nice with the kids.
Thanks for helping us create memories.

Alfonso and Uhani were wonderful! Alfonso listened to our requests for the trip and even guided on us on things we didn't know we needed to do (i.e. olive oil farm & cooking classes were both a must but we would not have added them to our itineraries without his suggestions). And he made magic happen when there was an event we really wanted to attend that was sold out - he got us tickets!

The trip planning went more smoothly than I could imagine and while we were on the trip, they checked in regularly (but not too much / intrusively) and it gave us such piece of mind to know that they were only a quick call / text away should there be any issues.

Would not hesitate to use them again and recommend others to do so too!

My wife and I recently returned from our trip to Spain and Portugal and we owe a big thank you to Helena Fernandez for a planning a fantastic trip right from the beginning to end. The places we saw were amazing- a blend of history to nature to culture all combining for a memorable expereince. Considering this was our first trip to Europe, we did know what to expect, but Helena took care of that by crafting an itinerary that balanced our curiosity and expectations. The boutique hotels were charming with very personable staff eager to go out of the way to make sure our stay was comfortable. Oh yeah, not to mention the tour guides who were very knowledgeable, respectful and full of humor to keep us going right thru the end of the day. So, if your travel plans call on Europe, I strogly recommend to go with Helena as your travel agent as she genuinely cares about people looking for a great expereince.

the hotels were all excellent choices
all but one of the guides were excellent, with the best guide in Malaga and the weakest in Granada
only issue was car service at Madrid airport and inability to contact driver

In Granada, our private tour with Matias was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and pointed out many things about the Royal Alcazar that we may not have noticed. It wonderful to do the tour with a local who had lots of insight about the history of the monument and Granada in general. He even gave us suggestions for dinner in Granada, as well as our next destination - Seville. Matias is one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. (I also have to compliment him on his English…. Very fluent and we had no problems understanding him.)

The hotel was very centrally located. Only 5 min walk to the cathedral

Staff

Staff was very friendly, but not always available. (I think they manage another hotel as well?)

Cleanliness & Comfort

The room was comfortable, however, it was very noisy in the morning. Every room was open to a central foyer. When the staff would go to prepare breakfast at 5:30 or 6 AM it was very loud and woke us up. Then , when people came to eat breakfast … it was impossible to sleep past 630 or 7 am because it became very noisy. If you are an early riser, this is no problem. But after all you are in Spain and likely you’ll be staying up late. This is something you need to know when booking this hotel.

Our trip was absolutely fantastic! Like any adventure, we had a few small hiccups, but overall everything exceeded our expectations. The hotels were perfectly located—just steps from most major sights—making it easy to explore on foot. All transportation, from planes to trains, was seamlessly organized and every ticket was right at our fingertips in the KimKim app.

KimKim’s support was incredible. Even with the time difference, they were always available through the app to answer questions quickly and clearly. Our tour guides—both walking and driving—were knowledgeable, engaging, and eager to share insights about the local culture and history. Some guides stood out as truly exceptional, but every single one made the experience memorable.

Special experiences like the paella cooking class added an authentic, unforgettable touch to the journey. From start to finish, we felt cared for and completely at ease.

I wholeheartedly recommend booking a tour with KimKim—it’s a stress-free, well-planned way to enjoy an amazing trip!

Elena was very patient and helpful through out the entire process of planning and then logistics during the trip. An example of the power of KimKim partnering with local guides was when we wanted to add a Flamenco experience she suggested one that provided an absolutely fabulous experience! She understood the focus of our trip and set up activities that were off the beaten path and made us feel special. All the guides, and even drivers, were top notch (and punctual!). Thank you, Elena!

We had a wedding in Valencia and decided to turn it into a two week trip. I gave Anita a list of cities we were interested in visiting and she created an itinerary that went above and beyond. She added stops to lesser known cities, which was our favorite part. We had private drivers and mostly private tours for the entire trip. It felt like we were first class travelers. The app with the itinerary was immensely helpful and some of the guides that we had were the best we’ve had on any trip. Antonio in Mérida was our favorite tour guide and we would have requested him for every tour if possible. Jesús and Paulo were extremely friendly and helpful drivers. There is nothing we would have changed about this trip.

Helena did an amazing job with the entire vacation from beginning to end. My boyfriend proposed on one of the excursions and later informed me how helpful everyone was. The entire trip ran smoothly and it was unforgettable for me and everyone involved. We were a bigger group on 8 people and all the transfers to and from hotels and airports were seamless. The excursions she chose were unique, amazing and comfortable. We did not feel like sardines being ushered around with a group of people. We had an amazing in all of Spain. The location of the hotels were phenomenal and very clean. We honestly had a trip of a lifetime. This is my second time booking with Kim Kim and I honestly recommend it to everyone. Helena and the Kim Kim team have exceeded my expectations with every vacation. Thank you to everyone involved in my proposal, it was truly magical and unforgettable.

We had a wonderful time in Spain thanks to the services provided by our local specialists, Alfonso and team. They customized our visit to the way we enjoy vacationing, they were there for us all throughout the trip with reminders and to answer questions, they solved problems and issues when they inevitably come up and recommended the best activities even for our free time. I would absolutely recommend their services especially to those that have busy schedules and don’t know the area well. We will definitely consider using Kim Kim in the future.

Our trip was absolutely amazing. Transportation was seamless, our hotels were gorgeous and the cities that were selected for us to visit was perfect for us. Can’t thank k you all enough. My 50th birthday was an amazing experience thanks to your thoughtful planning!

Hector was very responsive in creating our great trip to Barcelona, Madrid and Mallorca.
During the planning phase, he responded very quickly to any questions and the suggestions and plans that he made were very enjoyable
Nadia and Natalia from the Support team real quick to respond to any comments or questions. I feel totally supported throughout the trip.

I gave it to you only because we drove and I just wanted to make you guys aware that the parking situation for these catamarans is really challenging

Inside the Prado: A Private Experience

Madrid

Absolutely a fantastic two hour experience. We’re not that into art museums but the tour guide was so fantastic that she made it very interesting and we learned a lot.

Quality of Experience

A fantastic guide who didn’t try and jam in 200 paintings, but focused on a few of the painters and gave us in depth discussion on them.

I think our tour guide was OK, but it’s hard to compare him with the guy that gave us a tour of Barcelona.

Montserrat & Penedès: Nature, Devotion & Cava

Barcelona

Montserrat is a fantastic site to see. We certainly enjoyed seeing the area. Most of it was self guided, and we took the train to the top and hiked which was interesting.

Quality of Experience

The tour of Montserrat was amazing, but I think if it was a day when the boys choir was there, it would’ve been a lot better.

Guides, Drivers and Staff

As I mentioned before, there was another group that had a Spanish speaking only person, and therefore the tour was done, mostly in Spanish with occasional translation for English.
