Kimkim Trip Reviews

Uyuni was nothing short of extraordinary. The vast salt flats felt surreal — endless white horizons blending seamlessly into the sky, creating a landscape unlike anywhere else on earth. Every sunrise and sunset brought dramatic light and breathtaking reflections, making it a dream destination for photography. It was a rare experience that felt both humbling and truly a once-in-a-lifetime journey.

Was very impressed with the family room that accommodated our family of four very comfortably. Food and service were excellent.

Boating and snorkeling conditions were not ideal so it is difficult to rate. Even in ideal conditions, stopping at 3 islands might have been a bit unnecessary unless you enjoy speedboat rides.

This was our kid's favorite and probably mine as well. The staff were so kind and interacting with the elephants was the best!

I was the least sure about this one but so glad we went. The market was very cool to see and was actually a great place to pickup souvenirs.

AMAZING!!! This was the highlight of our trip by far. The staff was outstanding. The views impeccable. The experience unmatched. The waterfalls stunning....just amazing all around.

This hike was really just ok. Our guide was AMAZING, and very knowlegeable and he tried to pull out little details we wouldn't have ever seen without him, but there really wasn't much to see (and it was not due to the cloud cover).

Our guide was fun, passionate and very knowledgeable about the process of coffee and chocolate from growing to harvesting to production. The tasting experience was super helpful and we learned a lot about the entire process.

Everything about this trip was amazing. The sites. The staff. The precautions to make us feel safe. Just truly superb! Loved every second of it!!

Lovely jungle lodge. Breakfast was great! People were great. Birds galore! Caiman too!! Overall nice.

Eh, basic Holiday Inn Room. Okay for one night stay. Room was smelly. Proximity to airport: excellent! Just 5 mins away.

Gorgeous location, gorgeous suite, gorgeous sunsets!! We didn’t want to leave!! Close proximity to the lovely downtown. We could literally walk to everything. Close yet away from the noise. 5 stars! The front desk people were awesome. We weren’t fans of the breakfast though. The guy there wasn’t exactly giving off pura vida vibes, if you ask me! The options too were kinda eh. The accommodation itself was excellent!

The cooking class was fun because of the company we had. Two other travelers were in our little group. The cooking class itself seemed a little “let’s wing it” kinda thing. Would have liked it to be more organized and upbeat. Perhaps some music in the background. Proper recipe cards for each participant, some hey let’s take pictures … that kinda thing. Upon one of the participants’ request, the cooking instructor emailed us the recipes later. There was also some confusion on a dancing class post dinner. Also it wasn’t a 2hr50 min activity. More like under 2 hours. All in all, a little disappointing. The food was yummy though.

Okay, I’m probably being a bit snooty here. But having lived in Seattle for a major part of my life, the rainforest walk itself wasn’t as exciting as I thought it would be. If you’ve never been to a rainforest, you should probably go and experience. Our guide Will Nunez though- oh what a brilliant guide!! He has a ton of knowledge on all flora and fauna of Monteverde and CR in general. He showed us two tarantulas!! That was the highlight, really! As for birds, they were there alright, but hard to spot because of the dense forest. We did see a beautiful hummingbird chick in a nest. I think we enjoyed Will’s company more than the rainforest itself!

Our guide Oscar was brilliant! Knowledgeable and knew exactly where to take us so we could see the beautiful CR birds. Including the endangered Quetzal!! Didn’t realize how fast the 4 hours went by!!

Very comfortable, walking to many attractions, breakfast included gets day started right.

This was a good tour for our day in Tokyo. Our guide was insightful and we enjoyed the tour.

Beautiful, welcoming and luxurious without being pretentious.

Very relaxing don't forget your swimsuit

The drive through the country was breathtaking

Beautiful location, fabulous view, amazing dining area. Very responsive staff.

Beautiful view of nature. Wonderful restaurant! Room was very comfortable and felt very private.

Loved the hot springs! The staff were so friendly and professional. The facility is very well maintained and soooo beautiful.

Our guide at Arenal Volcano was keenly aware of our surroundings and was able to show us some animal life we never would have noticed on our own. La Fortuna waterfall was worth all 500 steps down and 500 steps back up!

Our stay at Palais L’Heure Bleue was truly a lovely experience. The hotel is stunning — elegant, intimate, and beautifully authentic. It perfectly blends Moroccan charm with a subtle French refinement, creating such a unique and welcoming atmosphere. The breakfast buffet was superb, with wonderful variety and quality, and dinner in the restaurant felt elegant and special — a true dining experience. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and overall everything worked beautifully… except for the coffee machine, which gave us a bit of a morning challenge (lol!). But even that added a little character to the stay. All in all, it was a memorable and delightful place to stay, and we would happily return.

Alkanar Camp was an absolute blast and truly one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. They anticipated every need — bringing tea, coffee, and anything else to ensure we were comfortable and relaxed. The dinner was delicious, beautifully prepared, and enjoyed under the most stunning desert sky. The evening entertainment was lively and so much fun — such a special way to experience the atmosphere of the desert. And our hut? Absolutely adorable. Cozy, charming, and far more comfortable than we expected. Waking up there felt surreal. It was an unforgettable experience and one we’ll be talking about for a long time.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Palais Khum.The hotel itself is lovely, beautifully maintained, and very welcoming. The staff was warm, attentive, and consistently helpful throughout our visit. Our room was comfortable, well-appointed, and everything functioned perfectly — which always makes a stay feel seamless and relaxing. The only small hiccup was breakfast. It felt a bit chaotic at times and the selection was somewhat limited compared to the overall quality of the hotel. That said, it didn’t take away from an otherwise very pleasant experience. Also, one important thing. The hotel hotel is not properly placed on Google maps. We really got lost. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would happily return.

What an unforgettable experience. Sleeping in the middle of the desert under brilliant blue skies and bright, sparkling stars felt truly magical. Our cozy hut was comfortable and thoughtfully prepared, making the whole adventure feel both authentic and relaxing. My husband and I especially loved the evening entertainment — we got such a kick out of it! The flamethrower performance was incredible, and the energy of the night made it even more special. The food was delicious and beautifully prepared. Most of all, we felt genuinely well cared for from start to finish. The staff made sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. It was a unique experience we will always remember. Highly recommend if you want something truly different and memorable while in Morocco.

The Medina in Marrakesh is wild, vibrant, and completely unforgettable. Mohamed guided us through the winding streets and souks on an incredible food tour that turned out to be one of the highlights of our entire trip to Morocco. We sampled a variety of authentic Moroccan dishes — from fresh street food to local specialties — and everything was delicious. What made it even better was knowing the food was freshly prepared and thoughtfully selected. I honestly think some of the bites we had that day were the best food I ate during our whole trip. Mohamed made the experience fun, safe, and meaningful. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Marrakesh.

Our cooking class at La Maison Arabe was an absolute blast and one of the highlights of our time in Morocco. We learned how to make chicken tagine with a wonderful chef and an incredibly warm and gracious hostess/owner. It was truly the best cooking class I’ve ever taken. Each of us had our own workstation, and there was a television monitor so we could clearly watch the chef’s demonstrations step-by-step. Assistants were nearby to guide us and make sure everything turned out beautifully, which made the experience feel relaxed, organized, and fun. The space itself was lovely — modern and polished, yet still infused with a beautiful Moroccan vibe. It felt authentic without being overwhelming. Such a memorable morning filled with great food, learning, and laughter. Highly recommend to anyone visiting!

Beautiful Hotel.

Very unique rooms literally said in a rainforest. The big draw for our room was the hot tub.

We arrived and learned that our reservation had been erroneously canceled. The staff at the hotel could not have been nicer in working with us to try to get suitable accommodations. In their facility. Plus overall the staff went out of their way to make us feel at home including the cocktails in the evening and the absolutely spectacular breakfasts. This is definitely the place to stay in Queenstown.

A very nice train ride on a beautiful train.

A very peaceful boat trip with a small boat of only 12 passengers. Lots of birds and interesting plants to see. You actually get very close to the shoreline. Great commentary by the guides.

Once in a lifetime experience. The glacier is spectacular. He will not get closer than you do on this trip.

Great experience! A highlight of our trip.

Lovely setting, but the beds were uncomfortable. It seemed to me that it was designed for people making a pilgrimage to Sukhothai. And that is perfectly fine. It’s a beautiful facility. The pool was excellent.

Probably my favorite hotel.

Centrally located on the Chao Praya river and has its own ferry. Very comfortable, clean rooms and beds. Excellent service. The staff were superb, as was breakfast. Great views of the river from our room.

Excellent location , clean and comfortable accommodation , especially the beds. Helpful staff. Disappointing breakfast.

Mixed. We were left to visit the waterfall without our guide as rules precluded him from taking us round.

Very nice hotel. Fabulous breakfast !

Very muddy trails plus I was not feeling well

Kayaking was not fantastic, kind of lame equipment but understandable. Not worth the effort. Should encourage the rim hike.

David went out of his way to make sure we saw Cotopaxi volcanoes it all her glory

Lunch stop was the best

Great hotel! The location was perfect! Its literally in the middle of everything making it very easy to walk to different shops, restaurants and pick up locations. The staff were so nice and friendly and the rooms were so clean and comfortable. To be honest, having a private sauna was truly a special treat and 100% worth it, especially during those night when you re coming back late and want to unwind and warm up. The breakfast was amazing and as a must have coffee first thing in the morning person, I was so happy to see a cafe connected to the main hotel. I would 100% book this hotel again

The Hotel is beautiful! The staff were so friendly and nice, upon my arrival they had complementary upgraded my room which was an amazing surprise. They even provided breakfast the night before as I had a very early checkout and wouldn't be able to experience their breakfast in the morning. The room with glass windows and ceiling was an amazing experience, the surrounding views was so breath taking. It was so magical to just sit and relax with a hot drink and watch the outside scenery

I small bit disappointed that I wasn't able to witness the Northern Lights but I completely understand that viewing them is not 100% guaranteed. Unfortunately for me, the day of my tour the weather was very over cast and foggy. I truly appreciate the tour guide at Beyond Arctic for driving around and trying to find the lights despite the weather. While one spot did seem promising, it was close to -30 degrees outside. The photos taken may not be with the lights, they are still beautiful and memorable. I would still book with Beyond Arctic when I return in my second attempt in viewing the lights :)

So much fun and so cute! The dogs were so excited to run and did such an amazing job. The route was beautiful and so very cold but it was so much fun. the dogs worked so well as a team and are so strong! You can tell the staff truly cares for them, they are so well taken care. They are so so sweet, after the run we were allowed to pet them and I never wanted to leave them

SO much fun! At first I was nervous since I had never driven a snowmobile before but once my nerves settled in, it had so much fun! The guide was so attentive and a very skilled driver, he would stop and make sure we were all okay before proceeding. The only downside was how cold it was. Unfortunately, the weather did not permit us to witness the lights while driving. Instead during the driving it started lightly snowing! Despite the cold temperature and lack of lights, I would still 10/10 recommend

A very cute and adorable experience. The owners of the farm/ranch are very knowledge and truly do care and love these animals. They take such good care of them. The reindeer are so cute, it was a fun experience feeding them and petting them. The sleigh ride was so magical, it felt like you were Santa.

This was such an amazing experience, it felt like I was in a story book because the scenery around me didn't look real. it felt like I was in Narnia or the North in Games of Thrones as my friends and family commented on. The entire hike took my breath away, there was so much to look at and take in. While it was cold, it didn't feel cold because of the small inclines every here and there. The highlight was being able to feed to birds. they were so cute and gentle.

These chalets were a bit dated, but the selling point for us on this place was the fact that the ski hill was right there. Within minutes we could be on the slopes. The hotel reception was nicely maintained and the staff helpfull.The food at the restaurant was very tasty as well.

What a fun way to experience Lapland. The rooms, the amenities, the restaurant, and the staff were all amazing. The food was delicious, the rooms were clean and well maintained.

Absolutely stunning and well planned out. We had a three bedroom villa, it was spacious and had just about everything we could have imagined needing, including a washer and dryer. The villa was well taken care of and the views were absolutely breathtaking.

Had a great time trying out snowshoeing and tobagonning. The day was beautiful and it was all very close so we didn't have a long drive anywhere. We also enjoyed a nice lunch.

We had a great time looking for the lights and learning about some of the legends behind the lights. It was an enjoyable time. The only thing that would have been nice to know is a clearer idea of the time frame to which we would be gone. The info said about 3 hours. We were gone for 5.5 hours. Maybe it was due to the availability of finding good spots to see the lights, but the first stop was about 20 minutes away, then the next one was over an hour drive. It just made for an unexpected long night.

I was a little disappointed with this experience. There seemed to be a lot of lag time between activities and when its cold outside, no one wants to sit and be cold. The staff were very nice and lovely, but seemed to lack experience with interacting with tourists. They kept asking us what we wanted to know and a lot of their answers seemed like they didn't really know, which is fine, but they wouldn't share what they did know so it felt like we were at a stand still with gathering informatino about the culture behind the reindeer farming. The sleigh ride was fun and the lunch was delicious and very plentiful.
