Anita Matijasevic
I am passionate about travels, positive and enthusiastic people and exploring new places off the beaten path. Always ready for new life adventures and exciting experiences that make my heart beat faster. I enjoy creating unique travel experiences for my travelers, family and friends by immersing them in the reality of the country they are visiting.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"I enjoy organising couple getaways, family&friends trip, hiking adventures and wine tasting experience through Italy and Spain and immersing my travellers in the local culture and traditions of the country they will be visiting."
How did you get involved in travel?
"It all started at the age of 15 and when I escaped from home with my older sister, one bag and passport on a day trip from Croatia to the Amusement park in the northern Italy. That trip made me want to travel and discover more which ulteriorly led me to one of the best decisions in my life - to enter the University and study foreign languages. After getting my bachelor's degree in Italian Language and Literature I got opportunity to spend 6 months on a Erasmus Study Stay in Naples, visit the south of Italy and later on start my first working experience aboad, in beautiful Florence. For my personal passions and redevelopment of my native country Croatia, I have also participated in various cultural and debating projects for which I have traveled a lot through Italy, Spain, Cyprus, Poland, Turkey, Lithuania, Latvia and met so many interesting people with same interest in travel who just confirmed me my life vision - dreams do come true, they sometimes just take time."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"One travel experience that makes me particularly happy happened in December 2019. After my university studies I wanted to turn my lifelong dream into reality, so I booked a one way ticket for my dream continent - South America and voluntereed for two months in Chile, Argentina and Brasil. I will never forget the simplicity and warmth of local people, the colorful streets always full of music, exotic fruits never seen before and beautiful panoramic views on every corner. I consider myself happy because I've got the chance to live with locals in their families and share everyday moments which helped me understand more their culture, break down all the stereotypes that media wanted me to believe and made me see the real South America in a way that might not have occured otherwise."

Fantastic trip with Kimkim
Portugal

Jul 28 - Aug 7, 2025
The trip we planned with Kimkim was fantastic. Anita created an amazing experience for us to see both Lisbon and Algarve and also play a little golf. Everything was very well organized. One particular standout was Nuno, our guide on our tour of Sintra and Cascais. He was very knowledgeable and really made our day so enjoyable. I would highly recommend Kimkim.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m happy to hear that you enjoyed your time in Lisbon and Algarve. I’m especially glad to hear Nuno made your tour of Sintra and Cascais so memorable—I’ll be sure to pass along your feedback. It was truly a pleasure planning this trip for you, and I look forward to helping you plan many more adventures in the future! Wishing you all the best! Anita

With short notice, a fabulous trip was planned and executed for us. Especially liked guided tours of the city on the afternoon/evenings that we arrived. That helps a lot to get the lay of the land. Barcelona tapas tour, Gaudi architectural tour were both great. Rioja full day wine tour with private guide was outstanding. Hotel choices were spot on. They were quick to answer messages and make changes on the fly. You can trust this group.

Hi Randal, thank you so much for your review! My Team and I are glad to hear that you enjoyed your trip, especially the guided city tours and the Rioja wine experience.
