I've been living in Norway, Sweden, Nepal, Austria and most of my adult life I've spent here in Iceland. Once I met some outdoor people who had so much fun on a glacier that I decided to become an outdoor guide myself, so for the last 6 years that's what my life is about : extreme outdoors including ice climbing, snowboarding, hiking, snowmobiling and boats. Iceland is just a perfect playground for that!
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"Custom-made trips across Iceland. From relaxed family holiday to extreme outdoors adventure, Iceland has so much to offer and I am ready to design a perfect holiday for you.
"
How did you get involved in travel?
"I think I was born with this desire to explore more. When I was 16, I took my first solo trip and I've got completely hooked. "
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"There is a little fjord town in Iceland, where an old man made an old church into a hostel. I've been staying there completely alone and going fishing with him every day. I think the beauty of the travels are these little cozy moments. "

Rinolda was an ace...never left us without alternatives...always responded promptly and with helpful suggestions. The reservations at geothermal spas were great, as well as at hotels and B&B's. The trip was absolutely wonderful and wouldn't have succeeded without your assistance.

Rinolda planned a wonderful anniversary trip for us back to Iceland. She answered all of our questions and worked hard in a timely manner to book our full itinerary during a very busy time to visit Iceland. Plus, it was fabulous to meet Rinolda in person on our glacier boat tour. Rinolda is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her.

Her suggestions and arrangements were very well suited for us. The itinerary was perfect.
She guided us through some hurdles we put ourselves into.
My utmost favorite place was Thorsmork. The volcano huts were akin to a luxury hotel. The scrnery and hiking were spectacular. I enjoyed all the hiking trails.
Golden circle was nice and is a must do but was dispensable for... Read more

We had an amazing trip to Iceland. Rinolda, our KimKim specialist was super helpful and responsive, and created a plan that was perfect for us, even though we started planning really late.
Everything worked perfectly, the hotels were very good, and the whole process was very simple and straight forward. Best of all, we got to Iceland, got in the car, hooked up our phone - and off we went.
Rinolda sent us to some amazing spots and incorporated our interests into the plan perfectly.
Thank you Kimkim and Rinolda!
An enjoyable trip of a beautiful country.
