Alfonso Nuñez

Since long time ago I have been travelling around the world discovering the different ways humans have organized their lifes. I was able to finish my communication studies in St. Louis, Missouri, and therefore had the chance to learn a different way of thinking from the european one: The "Why not?" mentality instead of the "Are you sure you want to do that?"

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"All over Spain; Northern Territory around the Basque Country, Pyrenees, and The diferent Ways of Saint James. The unknow Extremadura and Castile heritages. The light of the mediterranean coast, and the green mountains ranges in Asturias.
We design active trips for travellers, not tourists. Taylor-made programs close to our mother land and local traditions."

How did you get involved in travel?

"Going to America, Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania. Sometimes walking, sometimes cycling, sometimes with local transports, sometimes alone, sometimes with company. Always with my senses open. After being so connected with going abroad, I decided to show others in my homeland, the same things I was looking for when going outside; emotions. "

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"20 years ago discovering Cuba cycling from Santiago to Habana during one month using their local currency (not very legal at that time) and sharing experiences with locals. On new years eve we arrived to a very poor village by the north coast, and were invited to three different dinners on the same night. There was no way to say "no" to any of them, so we made our best eating and sharing like on a Groundhog Day."

Maria’s tour of Musé Sophia Reina was eye opening for this American! She is an awesome host and guide with detailed knowledge and passion for the modern art within the museum!

Alfonso was wonderful at planning a trip without much feed back from me, as i was very pressed for time prior to the trip departure. The guides he hired were AMAZING! Jose was born and raised in Madrid, knew the city and the culture like the back of his hand, and his passion for art history and it’s links to the country were clear in his passionate tour of the Prado. Raquel was born and raised in SEville, and was a true ambassador for the city. Her love for her city and it’s history was clear, and she loved sharing it with us.
Thank you Kim Kim and Alfonso for an amazing Spain trip.

Review for KimKim 1 December 2025

My wife and I decided to sponsor a family trip to Spain. Our trip would be for a week for the 6 of us. Our planning time with KimKim and agents, Alfonso and Uhaina was very easy. We established our basic budget, hotel preferences, transport needs, and places to visit. The communications were by text and went very well. We opted out of having our local transportation needs met by the trip provider. We were confident that we could use the metro and cabs. Indeed, we found the metro and taxis easy to use. We did request airport transfers, and they were provided, with good drivers and nice cars, meeting us right on time and in the right place.
Unfortunately, I took a hard fall on our second full day and had to spend the night in the emergency room in Barcelona. I was unable to continue with the remainder of the trip, which included several site visits and a three-day trip to Seville. KimKim made all of the necessary adjustments.
We did not get refunds on any flights, events, or hotels that were cancelled. In addition, there was no hospital insurance, a fact that we knew from the beginning.

KimKim helped us make the most of a difficult time, and I would recommend them to a friend.

Hi James.
The best feedback for us is to know that you are much better and that you are recovering from the fall you had on the second day.
I hope you can visit us in the future and enjoy the rest of your trip that you couldn´t discover.
Take care & warm regards.

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!

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.

Great tour guide - but the tour was different than described. While we did eat well, we didn't learn to make the tortilla as described. More of a history tour with some food stops than markets visit / tasting. But our tour guide was wonderful so we enjoyed nonetheless.
