Norway Self-Drive Tours

Our trip to Norway was great, and we were very happy with our KimKim experience. Mathia did a great job helping to translate our trip preferences into a detailed itinerary during the planning process. He also answered various questions that we had about various aspects of the trip. The KimKim chat feature was very helpful for this, and Mathia was always very prompt with his replies. As our plans solidified, Mathia handled all hotel reservations, train and ferry reservations, and internal transfers. All of this information was then consolidated into our trip plan on the KimKim website.

During our trip, we used the KimKim app to follow our trip plan--this was very helpful. There were no surprises or missed bookings. At a couple points I used the chat feature to reach out to the KimKim team to ask a question and got prompt, clear answers, including over the weekend. Mathia had set up three different 3-hour guided excursions as part of out trip, which I would highly recommend. Our local guides (Stig in Oslo, John in Bergen, Tiril in Aurland) were excellent--very knowledgeable and passionate, friendly, happy to answer questions, and accommodating of requests to adjust the itinerary a bit during the tour itself based on our preferences.

Overall we had a great experience both before and during the trip. KimKim helped manage the details and connect us to great experiences, while still preserving a lot of flexibility and independence during the trip. Thanks to Mathia and the KimKim team.

The entire team was very helpful and provided activity and hotel recommendations that were a good match for me. The instructions and information in the app were intuitive and helpful. I also appreciated the quick responses on a couple of logistic items while we were on vacation. We really enjoyed the boat tour in Oslo, partly because the weather was perfect and our tour guide in Oslo was wonderful as well. I liked the Oslo hotel and its history. The hotel in Flam had a great view and reasonably appointed but the shower in room 12 was atrociously small. I am not a large person but it was small for me and there was nowhere to put any of your shower items. The other rooms may have a better layout but the shower was so bad that I was grateful that it was a one night stay. It would be helpful to have a general but better understanding of what food and drinks are included in the food and culture tour in Bergen. For example, we'll try a two local drinks, a few small tastings and finished off with a lunch. Thank you all for helping us have a wonderful trip in Norway.

An absolutely wonderful trip to beautiful Norway! Alex and his team arranged an idyllic itinerary combining the must-see sights of Oslo with an immersive tour of gorgeous fjords and picturesque villages. The scenic Flåm railway was breathtaking! Hiking and boating to see the stunning fjords was otherworldly! Add a cheese tasting, culture walk, RIB safari, traditional Norwegian lunch, funicular ride, and so much more added to our amazing experience. Our accommodations and activities were expertly chosen and we couldn't have been more pleased. Alex and his team were communicative, professional, friendly and truly cared that our experience in Norway was beyond memorable. We highly recommend Alex and his team.
