Trips SouthAmerica

My trip was so amazing!
We worked with such amazing and knowledgeable guides who loved to show us their home country. Would book with Kimkim again.

We had an absolutely wonderful time while we were in Peru. The accommodations that we had were excellent. We enjoyed all of them in the various places that we stayed. The food was incredible and we had so much fun trying the different cuisines. Our guides and drivers were too notch. Susie in Lima was so much fun to be around and we loved the information that she shared with us. Edwin who was our guide to the Colca Canyon was so knowledgeable and excited to show us the condors as well as teach us about the plants in this area. Leo in the Sacred Valley was very enjoyable to explore with and learn more about Moray and the slat flats at Maras. Then our guide Henry on the Inca Trail was so fun and helpful along the way. Everyone was so friendly and helpful and punctual throughout the whole trip. We had the experience of a lifetime.

Anahi was wonderful, she planed exactly what I wanted and helped me to realize a beautiful trip. All your team took contact with me in each place that I visited and were very kind, as well as the people in all the hotels. The guides very kind, they answered all my cuestions, they knew very well from their stuf and were kind to all the people in the tours.
I was very pleased
Wirh my trip and Ihave already recommend you to some friends.
Thnak you very much for making my trip so amazing and wonderful……..I am sure I will contact you in the future.

I decided to plan a trip to Patagonia at the last minute.
Carolina was extremely helpful in suggesting and putting together our accommodations as well as itinerary together.
Laura also was really amazing in coordinating the trip when we were in Argentina.
All the tours picked out were great!
Loved all our tour guides, enjoyed the trek to Esmeralda lagoon.
The tour guide were very healing taking us to a rental store as soon as we landed so that we had appropriate clothing.
The highlight in Ushuaia was the penguin tour, Gavi the guide was amazing!
In Buenos Aires, Andrea and Walter were amazing with our airport transport and a great city tour.
Tango show and dinner was a great experience!
The last day we thoroughly enjoyed the trip to the gauchos ranch, Sabrina was an amazing guide!
Overall 11/10 stars for KimKim!

We generally research and plan our own travel; this was the first time we used an agency, and it was well worth it. Since we had not been to South America previously, having the expertise Anahi provided was part of what made our trip go so smoothly. She gave us excellent advice, made last minute changes to add an extra stop in Ushuaia (so glad we did this!), and she set up excellent excursions and guides for the days we requested them. When there was a minor issue (had to reschedule an excursion due to weather), they responded quickly, and everything was taken care of. It really was seamless without the frustrations that can sometimes occur when traveling. Every guide and driver we had was professional, knowledgeable and personable.
We would use KimKim again!

This is an absolutely excellent vacation/adventure planning service and I would use them again and again and would highly recommend them for those who want to travel 1/2 self-guided & 1/2 with pre-arranged services to make travel more comfortable and predictable. I'm am sure they are wonderful at organizing ANY type of vacation you want. But I enjoy planning some things and not having to worry about other things like transportation, early hotel check-ins, etc.

Planning a trip to Patagonia requires a bit of organization and knowledge. Working full time, I did not have the time to do all the research that I needed to stitch everything together seamlessly. I simply knew what we as a couple wanted to do and how we wanted to do it. Sooooo, enter Carolina! She was an amazing travel specialist with excellent communication skills.

KimKim used local guides and agents which (most likely) made it cost effective and gave a personalized feeling to the trip. Everything worked perfectly. (But then again the weather DID cooperative for us during our time there. Patagonia weather can be very unpredictable.) But even if it our itinerary wouldn't have worked out perfectly, the local agents and the KimKim team were always available and very responsive. If I wanted to add or deduct anything to the trip, an updated trip cost was given promptly. Their online portal was also very easy to use and convenient.

I have no regrets using their service. And would 100 percent use them again.

Full Day Fly Fishing Excursion🐟🚤

Patagonia

These guys know what they are doing and are extremely passionate about fishing, specifically fly fishing. They do a great job of providing a personalized trip. Most of all they know the area well, when and where the fish will run, and they won't waste your time and money. My husband and I have only taken 1 fly fishing lesson in the past. Using our time to learn fly fishing wasn't our goal; my husband wanted to catch a river king salmon. And he did! 42-44lbs. I did not catch anything but had a great time chatting with the guide and owner, who was incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture and environment of Patagonia as well as Chile as a whole. I learned a lot (which made me happy) and my husband caught a king (which made him happy). Now, it IS called fishing, people, not "catching." We were fully aware there are no guarantees of catching fish, but we did see many trout and king salmon jumping out of the water which was reassuring that they were at least there!

Using KimKim was an excellent way to see so much throughout Patagonia and still squeeze in some wonderful wine tasting and site seeing in and around Santiago, Chile (including fun and fascinating Valparaiso). Walking with the penguins on Isla Martillo in the Beagle Channel (while staying in Ushuaia) and the glacier mini trekking on Perito Moreno (staying in El Calafate) were awesome, once-in-a-lifetime experiences! Caro was fantastic helping us plan and reserve all of our excursions and lodging. Our guides (especially Jhon and Robinson) were wonderful and drivers Fernando and Christian were great, too! Mateo was particularly helpful and responsive with our questions… Our only regret was not upgrading our lodging. We had a wonderful experience at the Tolkeyen Hotel (modest, but gorgeous water view from our very quiet room) in Ushuaia and the Sierra Nevada in El Calafate was modest, but comfortable with good food and convenient location. But, we didn’t care for our very tiny room (and tiny bathroom) on a loud street in Puerto Natales at Casa de la Patagonia. The Hotel Fundador in the central Santiago (London-Paris neighborhood) was friendly and dinner was very inexpensive, but the room wasn’t great, bedding was uncomfortable, lots of noise at night. and the area was dirty and old (not in a quaint way). We were warned often about our safety there, too….Overall, I would use KimKim again for international travel! They made everything go smoothly and took the stress out of navigating new places. Priceless!!
