Private Visit to Madrid’s Local Markets & Tasting

Madrid

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.

Kept us in the shade during most of our walking! He really knew Madrid.

We enjoyed our trip to Grenada and Seville. Everything was beautifully arranged for us by Alfonso and Uhaina. Our local guides Ana and Rachel were knowledgeable and friendly. We had support whenever we needed it for the whole trip. The Kimkim platform an easy way to plan a trip. Love it!

I had a wonderful trip. The guys are very nice and very interesting. They were perfect. All trip was amazing and I enjoyed it very much. Thank you very much for all.

Guided Alhambra & Generalife Visit

Granada

Marvelous Place it’s better to go early in the morning. The guide was very good and very kind extremely attentive to to see if we were tired and find solutions to help. She thought that I was tired and ask the people from Alambra to let the school through much easier door all this without us asking her. It was really wonderful thank her. She was also very interesting with all the things she knew about in the history of lumber and also history of beginning of Spain and with old history of the region through time.

We had an amazing time in Spain. Alfonso planned a memorable vacation in Southern Spain, knowing that we will be going to Morocco afterwards. He ordered the locations in a way that built beautifully upon one another. The guides were top notch and all had degrees in history or art history. The pacing was great with fun activities in between seeing the historical sites like visiting an olive farm in Mantilla, hiking the Caminito del Rey and going to a flamenco show. The accommodations were well planned, centrally located and with historical charm. His team stayed in touch with us throughout the trip and helped us communicate with guides when things came up. They also reminded us of important deals so our trip went smoothly! We highly recommend working with Alfonso!

This was our first time using kimkim to plan a trip anywhere. It made the entire process incredibly easy and I will be recommending it to all of our friends back home. Our trip coordinator was Alfonso Nuñez with Basquelands Way. He was excellent and was always quick to respond when we messaged him with questions. We asked him to put together quite a complex trip that involved traveling to and planning activities in Madrid, Barcelona, Calders, and Palma de Mallorca. He created an amazing trip and handled our requests with ease. Our favorite activities that he planned for us were the hot air balloon ride with Mallorca Balloons, the private olive oil farm tour at Finca Aubocassa, the tuk-tuk tour of Madrid with Tu Tuk Tuk, and the walking tour of Madrid with our guide Jose. I highly recommend Alfonso if you are planning a trip to Spain. We had an incredible time.

Jose was a wonderful guide. Taking a tour of the city by tuk-tuk allowed us to cover far more ground than we would have been able to cover on foot and they are a lot of fun to ride in.

This was the absolute most amazing vacation we have ever taken. Alonso and his team went above and beyond to ensure we had the most memorable time. We were a family of 10 spanning 3 generations. We started our trip in Madrid. We wanted to start our trip with a tapas tour with expectations of a culinary experience. Jose, our guide in Madrid, took us on a journey of history and culture that was woven in with the different dishes. We spent 3 days with him experiencing food, touring the palace and ending in Toledo with Easter mass and a tour of the streets. In Barcelona our experiences included a bike tour, a tapas tour, the most wonderful guide at Sagrada Familia, a FC Barca game and ended with a winery tour and a trip up the mountain to Montserrat . We are ready to plan our next vacation and Kim Kim has set the standard so high we are afraid of being disappointed. Thank you so much to Alfonso and Uhania for your attentiveness.

Private Montserrat & Penedès Wine Region Day Trip

Barcelona

This was the highlight of our vacation. Our guide at the winery took is on a journey of the wine and olive oil of the region. After we had our favorite meal of our Spain trip. We may have drank a little too much mine so the ride up the mountain to Monserrat was slightly rough but so worth it. Monserrat is one of the most beautiful places we have been too.

Day Trip to Toledo

Our guide Jose was the best tour guide we have had in any country. He made us fall in love with the food, history and culture of Spain.

Alfonso and Urania were excellent to work with. We had a number of changes including two members of our party who had to cancel because of medical reasons. Alfonso responded graciously with each change of plans. Our hotels and the activities booked for us were a perfect fit . We have enjoyed all aspects of the trip.

The best - our captain was so engaging and made the trip a real treat.

Wonderful trip - better than I could have done myself!

As a veteran family vacation planner, it's not easy for me to admit, but Alfonso did it better. Activities were well chosen, taking our interests fully into consideration, and guides were all exceptional. We made things more difficult at the end by our last minute planning, but Alfonso nevertheless managed to score tickets to the Alhambra, perfectly timed to catch our train from Granada to Madrid. Hotels were exactly as hoped, and impeccably located. All transitions were perfectly seamless, and when we needed a minor adjustment it was managed in minutes. We really appreciated the daily check-ins from Alfonso and Uhaina to make sure we were still on course. It certainly makes it easier to ask questions as well.

All in all a wonderful service; I would not hesitate to use it again.
