The location of the class was very cool, we had no idea we would be in Les Galeries Lafayette. It was nice and quiet in the baking room but not totally sure it was worth our time if I’m being honest. Not super interactive for our 5 and 7 year old.

The Louvre is overwhelming but we were thankful to have Claire as a guide. She had a fun game for the kids to hunt for specific parts of paintings which kept them engaged. We were not prepared and the kids were thirsty and hungry and water was not easily accessible in the museum. With that aside it was a great time!

While the driver was so sweet and friendly, this tour just missed the mark for us. The advertised photos are a bit misleading. There are no wild horses in France as our guide informed us, we drove around to fenced in horses, a very cool salt marsh, some flamingos, and a fenced in bull pen. There was no tasting of local products, we were late due to an issue with weather, but I don’t believe it would have been included either way.

We would never have missed making macarons, chocolate goodies, and the gourmet food tour. Believe it or not, our food tour guide was gluten-free just like my granddaughter. She even went out of her way to buy gluten-free bread for her to use as we sampled so many goodies.

Of course, we loved the Dali museum, the wonderful tour by Alouise a Montmartre, the Eiffel Tower at night, the boat tour on the Seine river, and the Saint Chapelle Stain-glass windows.

I would recommend Lucie as a travel agent to anyone who wants to go to France!

Hi Barbara,

Thank you again for such a sweet feedback. It was a great pleasure to organize this Parisian week for you and Rebecca and I am so happy you had a good time.

I am glad that our guides took such a good care of you :) I see that all visits went well, appart from the Louvre museum that was too crowded. Unfortunately this museum is tooooo famous and everyone wants to visit it. So yes, it can become a little overwhelming, but it has so many treasures to admire.

I would be happy to help you friends if they wish to travel to France. Don't hesitate to reach out ;)

Each day was thoughtfully planned. Not hurried, we were able to explore at a decent pace. There was careful consideration given to daily and weekly activities. We used the underground, Uber, bicycles when we were not able to explore on foot.
All accommodations were excellent as were the ease of being able to download tickets or directions as we proceeded. Vaseem checked in on occasion and minor adjustments were able to be made in real time.
Thank you for a most memorable experience. Thank you Vaseem, thank you KimKim. Most professional.

We probably contacted him more than he would wish while we were traveling! We did find one of the hotel rooms quite cramped, and we don't think 15 square meters should be called "spacious" for a couple, especially with a huge bed taking up most of it.

We had a lovely trip. I do have a couple of reservations, which I'll talk about below.

First, I should say that Vaseem was very responsive and helpful. We probably contacted him more than he would wish while we were traveling! We did find one of the hotel rooms quite cramped, and we don't think 15 square meters should be called "spacious" for a couple, especially with a huge bed taking up most of it. But my main reservation is about the Kimkim model in which buyers get no breakdown of costs. This makes it very hard to tell whether we are getting reasonable value for the money, and to weigh and choose different elements. We chose to reduce the level of hotels, but in retrospect might have dropped some of the private pickups instead. These were very uneven in service. On the plus side, all the drivers were on time. But we expected help with luggage (being rather old), and while some were great about this, one young fellow in Lyon led us on a long bag drag without offering help, just peeking around occasionally to see if we were trailing along behind. We passed a line of taxis we would have loved to jump into instead.

We greatly enjoyed the Beaujolais wine tour with Eddie and Roman history tour with David. For each of the tours we were given inaccurate information about the meeting place and time, which led to some unnecessary worry and inconvenience. We liked most of the hotels, except for getting luggage up and down spiral staircases. The most charming was in Montpellier (luckily the kind concierge gave us a room in the portion of the hotel with an elevator, so there was only a little bit of spiral staircase). Our hostess in Avignon was extremely helpful with advice about sights and restaurants.

Anyway, thank you to Vaseem and the tour guides. To Kimkim management, please be more transparent about costs. I know we're not the only travelers who want this.

This is a charming old hotel, with a lovely patio and terrace for breakfast. It does have spiral staircases in spots, so could be a challenge with heavy luggage or mobility limitations. The location in the old city is great, though on a small street that's a challenge for cars.

Hi Joy,

Thank you for trusting Kimkim and providing us with the opportunity to organize a trip for you.

It is good to know that you had a lovely trip. It was a pleasure to see you in Montpellier.

Again, please accept my sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused to you during your stay in France. As soon as you informed me about this inconvenience, I talked to the manager of the hotel. I am sorry that the room could not have been upgraded due to full occupancy.

Concerning your meeting point in Lyon, let me tell you that for a private tour, the pick-up is from the accommodation of the traveler, but for all small group tours, generally, the pick-up location is a tourism office or central square (which was indicated to you) of the city. I am sorry that the meeting point for your guided tour in Lyon was a square which made your meeting with the guide inconvenient. I have noted it down for future tours. Your feedback will help to improve the services.

Your concern about the 8-minute delay in pick up for the tour in Avignon and concern about not offering help for carrying your luggage with the driver in Lyon had been taken into account on the day you informed me during your trip. I talked to our local operator and advised them not to repeat this with future travelers.

Thank you again for trusting Kimkim

I wish you both all the best!
Best regards,
Vaseem
