Trekking Adventures In Thailand

We had a wonderful trip, and loved every minute. Thank you KimKim Team and especially Sandi for making our trip truly exciting and memorable. Everything worked smoothly, without one worry or issue. Planning with Sandi was really fun. She was extremely patient with my questions and changes. She listened to our concerns and planned accordingly. She was communicative throughout the planning and also while we were in Thailand. I couldn't have asked for a better trip planner. I would recommend Sandi highly to anyone!

We had fantastic tour guides. It was not possible to get one tour guide for all days in each location, so we had a different guide each day. And that proved to be fantastic! Each guide was different, and each offered terrific insights and details about everything we were seeing and experiencing. Special side trips and tastes in the markets were included!

Our guides in Bangkok, Leena and, sadly, please forgive me, I am forgetting the name of the lovely and fun guide we had on the second day, were amazing. Loved the Temples, the Palace, the Jim Thompson Museum, and on day two, the Railway Market and the Floating market were great, the guide full of personal and descriptive details, and the trip to the coconut farm much fun. We loved our visit to Chinatown and lunch with our guide in a very local and delicious restaurant.

Then in Chiang Mai, we had the guides Q and Faan, both of whom were amazing. SO much fun! Loved the first day Tuk Tuk tour of the Temples and the markets. Q showed us a very local food market in the morning, and told us a lot about the habits of the people, which was so memorable. The Khaos Soi lunch, the mango and sticky rice delicious, and being blessed by a Buddhist Monk was unforgettable. The next day trip to Lamphun with Faan was also fantastic. Blessed again by another Monk and saw exquisite temples. Very worth the day trip out of the city. Rich with history and beauty.

Finally, the trip to the ethical elephant preserve was a highlight. The guide we had there was so much fun and we learned so much, and enjoyed every minute. Wow, what an experience.

I can't say enough about the tour. From the planning with Sandi, to the logistics--communications from the local coordinator each day before to confirm the details of the next day, perfect pickups and no waiting-- to the really intelligent and interesting guides. I will recommend KimKim to anyone, and plan to use them for our next trip, wherever that may be!

We loved our trip to Thailand. Elena did a phenomenal job planning the entire thing and tailoring it to our desires. It was an incredibly memorable experience with phenomenal guides ("O" and Mark). Everything was very well thought out and the travel was seamless.

Hotel Reviews

Varana Krabi Hotel

Wellness Focused Hotel with great amenities. We worked out in the gym each morning, had a yummy breakfast on the veranda and then headed to the pool or beach. My husband did the paddle board fitness class and I got a massage on the beach. 10/10

Four Islands Sunset & Night Snorkeling by Speedboat Join-in Activity

Krabi

Such a great day in the sun! We were able to snorkle both during the day and at night. The beaches were pristine and the water is warm. I typically get seasick, but didn't at all on this tour and the guides had medicine in case. At the end of the tour we saw the most incredible group of bats leaving a cave (I mean thousands) and then snorkled in the dark with bioluminescent plankton. Unforgettable!
