Doris was really wonderful. The overall planning and attention to detail was just amazing. She also checked in on us along the way to make sure everything was running smoothly (which it always was). There were so many things along the way that were so efficient that you might not even notice them. Getting picked up and driven all over Vietnam and Thailand, on time over a period of 30 days is really incredible.

We just returned from an exceptional trip to Vietnam and Cambodia and we were so thankful for Kimkim every step of the way. Ashley, our travel consultant from Realistic Asia, was a godsend. She was so patient and helpful in the planning process - we wondered if she ever slept because her responses were so immediate. Once we were in SE Asia, she assisted us in every way and kept the lines of communication consistently open. Mind you, everything went so smoothly that there were practically no issues to resolve. Highlights of our trip were: day trip to Ninh Binh, food tours in Hanoi and Siem Reap, Hoi An, home dining in Hue, Mekong Delta tour, our stay in Phu Quoc, temples in Siem Reap. As a former global studies teacher, I also greatly appreciated the many connections to the Vietnam War and Cambodian Khmer Rouge era. Our expert guides throughout taught us a great deal about the history and culture of these beautiful countries, but we especially enjoyed learning about their lives and the everyday lives of people there. This trip was so memorable and well planned. Hats off to Ashley and Kimkim.

Boarding cruise in Ha Long Bay

Ha Long Bay

Boarding and disembarking were fine. Cave excursion was okay. Ha Long Bay is beautiful, but you're basically looking at a bunch of other cruise ships. Also, the water was visibly polluted so swimming was out of the question. We did appreciate the ship we were on - very nice.

Touch the History of Former Imperial Capital - Hue Full Day Sightseeing

Hue

Our guide was very knowledgeable, but we had to cut this tour short because of illness.

Ho Chi Minh City Full Day

Ho Chi Minh City

Our guide was a last-minute replacement for the original guide assigned. He was underwhelming. We all had problems understanding him and he was a bit disorganized. Very sweet though. The Imperial Palace and the War Remnants Museum were the best parts of the tour.

Hoi An

Great guide - fun half day tour.

Ho Chi Minh City

Very interesting half day tour!

Great snorkeling and fun fishing. The meal was yummy too. This excursion was a bit different than how it was described.

Siem Reap

Visiting the Floating Villages on Tonle Sap Lake

Siem Reap

Great itinerary loved the diversity of locations and the fact the team worked with me to craft an agenda the fit our wants. To break it down:
First Stop – the airport reception and half day tour was very trouble free, and I appreciated the guide being flexible with our ask including finding a very local spot to grab lunch and making sure we had time at all the spots we wanted to see.
Second Stop – Lucky was very knowledgeable about everything and was a very gracious host. We very much enjoyed our day on the boat and all the activities that were planned. I would not change anything about that.
Third Stop – Our guide in Da Nang was extremely knowledgeable about local history and culture and made the trip very enjoyable from a cultural experience. All the activities and transportation including the hotels were top notch.
Forth Stop – We enjoyed our time in the city and more importantly we had a great experience on the bay. The cruise ship was very well managed, and accommodation was excellent. Again, it would not change a thing.
Overall.
Hotels – Top of the line, great rooms and great service
Guides – All very attentive and professional, felt like they wanted to make sure we enjoyed ourselves.
Transportation – Did not miss a beat, on time and great coaches at all stops.

KimKim is so thorough with planning our trip , we went to Hanoi, Ha Long Bay, Bangkok and Phuket. Everything is exactly like our wish ,we felt very well taken care of. Love that Kim can answer any question we had.
Long our tour guide in North Vietnam is so knowledgeable with history and places. He always reminded us where and what time to meet.

I have to say that my and my wife’s trip to Vietnam was amazing. We both have traveled a fair bit, sometimes curating trips ourselves and sometimes using fairly high end travel companies. Our 10 day Vietnam experience ranks equal to the best we have done.

I worked with our local specialist Trang for five months ensuring everything was exactly the way we wanted. Trang was incredible. She was knowledgeable, organized, helpful with ideas and patient!! Our trip went perfectly. Trang checked in throughout and helped with a couple of modifications during the trip based on our whims. We cannot thank her enough.

As for Vietnam. Well it’s everything our friends have told us. Highly recommend putting on anyone’s list.
