Kimkim Trip Reviews

Our trip was magnificent! Our guides, Rony Nikolai Henry Wilbur Franco were informative, fun and made our adventure the trip of a lifetime !

We just returned from Thailand and it was absolutely amazing. From the start of the planning of the trip to the day we returned. Elena my trip advisor had everything planned perfectly from the private car pick ups to the sight seeing tours, cultural experiences, and island jumping to Phuket. I actually broke my foot in the airportdeplaning the airline that took us to Phuket and although I didn't get to attend everything Elena had planned for us in the itinerary I still enjoyed the ambiance, environment and atmosphere. Our tour guide Pom was fantastic, I love his people personality. He was very informative, taking us to some great temples and eatery places. This was definitely one of my favorite trips thanks to Elena and pom.

A very well executed trip and we returned home ready to plan another international trip. Both guides in Rome from LivTours were Great and would highly recommend them to our friends. Colosseum, a lady..Solevia(?) and Giovani for the Vatican. Same with St. Marks & Doges Palace, Pizza class, Amalfi Coast with Vinny from New Jersey. In Naples & Veiled Chryst was a terrific local professor, she was great too. A hiccup for Pompeii with finding our now larger group ended up with another terrific guide in Thomas, Tom or Tomas so this also worked out although waiting for all the others in that group took an hour. Our Trekking in the Chianti Hills was an ‘experience’ and I should have asked more questions…we were not prepared for a 10 mile up/down hike so we called it early and were picked up after 6.4 miles. Dealing with trains was easy after the first one. Hotels were good, only hotel with a washer/dryer for laundry was our first stop…Numo. Not a big deal but we had read that some of our hotels had “laundry” but it ended up as a service only, to send clothes out to have laundered. So we did clothes in the sink and hung up to dry the rest of the trip to stay fresh. We searched & found several restaurants that did not have a ‘Carnival barker’ outside trying to bring you in. And we found good food and deserts. We did 15K - 25K steps each day and lug our two carry on suitcases over the streets and through neighborhoods so we got immersed in each city from the get-go.

This is the first time I have had a travel company book a trip for me. It was so worth it! Liam from Highpoint Travel put together an amazing itinerary for us. He was always available for hiccups. Every hotel and tour booking was spot on! He booked us in a variety of hotels at great locations. There were some tours I would like to especially highlight. The Hebridean Farm Hike with Karen Elwis was especially memorable. Karen was absolutely charming, informative and fun. She even pulled my leg out of a mud sink hole and cleaned my shoe:) She has to be a definite booking for anyone travelling to the Isle of Mull. Additionally, Steve with Highland Wildlife & Birdwatch Safaris in Aviemore was amazing. We covered so much in our four-hour safari. Steve, too, was informative and fun. Booking with Steve is a must for the Cairngorms National Forest. Our Edinburg tour guide Garreth was wonderful. He took us off the beaten path and it was so fascinating. Also, our Stirling Castle tour guide Bruce gets two thumbs up. Really enjoyed our tour with both of them. And our Glencoe tour guide Hannah was very sweet and patient with my level of hiking. And loved her dog Inka.

My husband and I enjoyed our trip. Valentina was easy to work with and was always quick to respond to questions. The hotel in Maranola was great. Excellent location, comfortable room with a great view, good breakfast and excellent staff. Our guide the first day was excellent. She walked us around some of the villages and was so helpful teaching us how to use the train and get to the trail near our hotel. It was a great introduction to Cinque Terre. Perfect way to start. We loved the pesto making class with Micky and her father in law. What a fun experience and a beautiful setting. Our local contact always checked in and always kept us updated with our itinerary. The transportation from Florence and to Bolzano was great and both were on time. The hotel in Bolzano was amazing. Thanks to all involved for a great experience.

We just returned from an incredible 7-day journey through Japan, and we are still floating! From the neon-lit streets of Tokyo to the tranquil hot springs of Hakone and the historic charm of Kyoto, every detail of this trip was flawlessly executed thanks to Bella.

A massive shoutout to our incredible team who made the logistics effortless. Right from the start, we were picked up at the airport by a very capable driver named Song, who also safely and smoothly drove us out to Hakone later in the week. Navigating the country was a breeze thanks to our spectacular guide, Roy. We cannot say enough good things about him! He helped us master the Tokyo rail system and expertly guided us through our stay in Hakone. We affectionately referred to him as our Japanese Dad. If given the opportunity, request Roy to be your guide.

In Tokyo, we stayed at the Keio Plaza Hotel, which was incredibly comfortable and so convenient for exploring the city. Tokyo was a whirlwind of amazing sights, perfectly balancing futuristic fun with deep history. Some of our highlights included, flying through the streets doing Akihabara Go-Karting, immersing ourselves in the stunning digital art at teamLab Borderless, and experiencing the organized chaos of Shibuya Crossing.
We slowed things down with beautiful tours of the Imperial Gardens and Meiji Shrine, and ate our way through the spectacular Tsukiji Food Market.

We then traveled to the countryside (Hakone) with our guide, Roy and driver, Song. Hakone was arguably the highlight of the entire trip, largely because we stayed at the stunning Ten-Yu hotel. It featured amazing hot spring onsens, which quickly became our absolute favorite part of the trip. We cycled along Lake Yamanaka with a breathtaking view of Mt. Fuji framing the background—a picture-postcard moment we will never forget. We traveled by cable car and gondola up to the Owakudani valley to see the steaming volcanic vents. While there, we tried the famous black eggs boiled in the hot springs, which are said to add seven years to your life!

We then traveled to Kyoto by bullet train. We wrapped up our week staying at the Celestial Hotel Gion in Kyoto. It was in a fantastic location right in the heart of the historic Geisha district, and it even featured its own onsen for us to enjoy. We got dressed up in traditional Kimonos and attended a beautiful, serene traditional tea ceremony. On our last day, our wonderful guide Ursula took us to the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest and the monkey park, wrapping it all up with a food tour through Nishiki Market. Ursula was fantastic—incredibly flexible and more than willing to adjust our schedule on the fly to make sure we got the most out of our day.

This trip was the perfect blend of fast-paced city life, deep relaxation, and rich cultural immersion. The warmth of the people, the expertise of our drivers and guides, and the sheer beauty of Japan made this a vacation we will cherish forever. Thank you to Bella for all her help in planning it.

The trip was amazing, we saw all the things we wanted to and everything was so well planned out for us. We loved the Ring of Kerry drive most, do not miss Valentina Island and the Kerry Cliffs.. wow! The one thing we might have changed was staying in Killarney for 3 nights instead of 2, you can spend a whole day just in the national park, so much to see!

Coraima planned an amazing honeymoon trip for us in Portugal. Our guides Frederico and Alex gave us all the beauty of Sintra and ended each day with great local authentic restaurant recommendations. Sintra Marmòis Camelia is beautiful hotel that also gave us access to free live music and wine tastings at their sister hotel within walking distance.
Our time at Casa de São Domingos in Regua was wonderful. This is a beautiful place with breathtaking views everywhere you look. Vasco gave us a great tour of his family winery Quinta Barqueiros. It felt more like we were hanging out with a friend in their home who was explaining their passion and career to us than paying an overtired guide just trying to get through the day.
Lagos is beautiful and we will hopefully be able to spend more time in Algarve in the future. MN56 has it all and is right in the heart of all the action. We questioned whether we should do both the kayak and boat tour on back to back days. Do them both! Our walking food tour with Sophia was potentially the highlight of the trip. She was friendly, funny, and showed us some of the best food we have ever had.
Our cooking class with Chef Angela at Cooking Lisbon which included a trip to the market together was an unforgettable experience. I only wish we had more time to spend in Lisbon. If you’re visiting Portugal you MUST go see Fado. We had a delicious dinner accompanied by live Fado at a rustic family run restaurant called Senhora do Fado.
My wife and I are very busy and planning a trip like this isn’t something that falls in our wheelhouse. Coraima and KimKim made it so easy to take this trip. Our hotels, transfers, and daily activities were all planned and everything happened seamlessly every step of the way. The KimKim app gave us our itinerary at our fingertips and made contacting any guides, drivers, hotels, etc. foolproof.

I absolutely 10/10 recommend Coraima and KimKim for planning any travel/vacations and can guarantee we will be repeat customers.

Philip was an amazing tour guide. He took us to Sintra and Cascais and was fabulous in imparting his knowledge on history and culture. He made the trip richer with his insights. We looooooved the wine tour in the Algarve. Our hotels were great and the entire trip went off absolutely seamlessly. Our trip planners and guides communicated impeccably. Everything ran like clockwork. We loved Lisbon and Lagos. The food was fantastic and we were able to work some of it off climbing many hills!

This was our favorite day. We went to a small winery in an old convent.

We went to the production facility and learned about how the wine is made. The tasting room was beautiful and they had great wines and a lovely cheese plate for us. We then went to a second and larger winery with a gorgeous patio where we did the tasting outside. We tasted a number of wines and had tapas with it. The scenery is beautiful and we loved learning about wines we were unfamiliar with.

🥾 Self-Guided Coastal Hike: Lagos Old Town to Ponta da Piedade

Lagos (Algarve)

Cannot say enough good things about this hike. We LOVED it. We had a lovely lunch at O Camilo - make a reservation as it was crowded and there was a long wait! The path has gorgeous views. It's also great for running and we went another night for a spectacular sunset, which was a very popular time there. The stairs to Praia de Camilo were unfortunately closed, and we read that's the best place to walk down to a beach. There is another set of stairs further down the path but they do not lead to a beach. Highly recommend.

This was a great day. Unfortunately, we were not aware of how windy and chilly Sintra can be in May. We were freezing cold at Pena Palace, all of which is either outdoors or in the open. It was very different weather in Sintra than Lisbon. The town of Sintra is adorable and our tour guide, Philip, treated us to amazing pastries. We really enjoyed Quinta da Regaleira. It was warmer there and a beautiful day to walk around. We stopped at Cabo da Roca to take a quick picture, but didn't stay long as it was extremely windy. We had a nice afternoon in Cascais.

Booking with Active India Holidays was the best decision I could have made for this trip to India. Everything was so well handled from the airport pick-up and drop-offs to the hotel check-ins. We stayed in 5 different cities, and in each we had beautiful and comfortable hotels, amazing tour guides, and excellent drivers. Our favorite driver throughout the whole trip was Mr. Brijesh- he was with us for 3 of the 5 cities, and he made the journey smoother. He drove very safely, was always punctual, and always polite. He also had everything we needed in his trunk, such as cold water and umbrellas for the hot days. Mr. Ganesh, our airport representative, was amazing. He took his time to explain everything to us, made us feel welcome in India, and was very helpful during our first city transfer. We really liked all of our tour guides: They were all very punctual, helpful, informative, and polite. All of our guides were so kind to take many of our photos. Mr. Dharmender in Delhi was so patient with us- keeping up with our pace, answering all of our questions, and even thought of giving us quick history lessons in the shaded areas. He took us to a place where we got gorgeous and reasonably priced indian wear. Mr. Mohan in Varanasi was very amenable - we had to rearrange our tours due to a medical issue, and Mr. Mohan was very nice to work with us, but also made sure we still could visit everywhere we had planned to. In Agra, Mr. Ronit was very thoughtful when it came to visiting the Taj Mahal and making sure we were aware of the tourist traps. He took lovely pictures and had all the perfect angles. He also made sure that nobody was directly in our photos. Mr. Surya from Jaipur was ultimately one of our favorites. He made my mother's birthday so special by thinking of the perfect location for her to be surprised with her birthday cakes and allowed her to have beautiful pics. While we are on the topic of my mother's birthday, we want to give Active India Holiday a very special thank you for making her day so exceptional and memorable. Mr. Suyra was a great conversationalist and made our time in Jaipur very pleasant. Additionally, he made us aware of tourist traps and took us to affordable places to buy anything we needed. Mr. Suraj in Mumbai was very helpful and flexible with us. He allowed us to do as much as we could before leaving for the airport. Furthermore, he took some amazing videos( with our permission, of course) and made some wonderful videos for us.
Overall, this trip was unforgettable, and it was all thanks to this company.

We worked with Lucie for a custom vacation in France. During the planning process, we split the trip adding additional days in England. Lucie was very patient, figuring out how to incorporate our varied requests. Our 9 day, 8 night trip was split between Paris and London with custom add-ons at each location. Lucie added transfers to/from each hotel and also coordinated train tickets between Paris and London. In Paris, we started off with an authentic sidecar tour with Retro Tour Paris. Though the weather didn't fully cooperate, the experience was amazing and something we would have never thought of. They asked us what we've seen and what we wanted to see and crafted a custom tour route based on our feedback--fantastic. We ended the day with an awesome dinner Seine River cruise with Bateau-Pariseans. My family agrees that the river cruise was a major highlight. Day 2 we had a long trip out to Mont Saint-Michel with Blue Fox Tours. Was well worth the long ride there and back (~3.5 hour) if you haven't been before. Day 3 we had a gourmet food tour in Saint Germain des Pres which was pretty cool. It was in the same neighborhood as our really cool hotel (Hotel Baume) so we really enjoyed the sights (and tastes). Speaking of the Hotel Baume=winner! Boutique hotel in great location. Day 4 we had another long day taking a tour of the D-Day beaches in Normandy. Again, with Blue Fox Tours. Both day tours with Blue Fox were great and would highly recommend them. Day 5 we travelled the Eurostar (premium) from Paris to London and hit the ground running with a visit to the Bukingham Palace Kings Gallery exhibit of Elizabeth II's wardrobe-was really interesting though geared toward those with a love of fashion. On day 6 we had a 1/2 day trip out to Windsor Castle with Anderson's Tours--was really well done and worth doing. We had free time in the afternoon so we added on a visit to the Tower of London. We scheduled that on our own and Anderson Tours dropped us off there right after returning from Windsor. Day 7 started off with a visit to Churchill War Rooms and Westminster Abbey. Since we had an evening free, we added a Soho viewing of The Devil Wears Prada. Again, we coordinated that on our own but a great addition to our trip. On day 8 we wanted to take a day trip out to see Clarkson's Farm but turn out there were not specific tours to get there and would have to get there on our own, not necessarily easy from London. So, we turned to Viator and booked a Cotswold Day tour going to three separate quintessential English villages conducted by Evans & Evans Tours---well worth it and would recommend it. Regarding out hotel in London, it was at the Park Plaza Victoria--a great hotel at great location. Both hotels were excellent and both in convenient locations with transportation, food, and shopping nearby. What I am not reviewing in any detail are the gaps in our schedule--filled with visits to shops and cafes which was as much of a highlight as any of the formal tours. Taking the metro in Paris and Tube in London is part of the experience. Lucie was available anytime we needed her to answer any questions and was great from start to finish.

A must see for anyone interested in the British royals. Was great to learn that Windsor Castle is surrounded by an actual town with lots of shops and restaurants to explore. The castle itself was good but expect crowds and bottlenecks as you navigate through. The tour was conducted by Anderson's Tour and the guide was amazing (Megan). She provided a lot of information on the bus ride out but was not allowed to walk through Windsor with us. She was great and even dropped us off and walked us to the Tower of London after for a separate tour (not through Anderson Tour).

Unveiling Masterpieces at the Louvre Museum

Paris

We were provided tickets with a report time of 3:30pm to the Louvre. Because we know it's a busy museum, we thought about using the Carousel entrance to avoid the rain and really large crowds outside--good choice. As the largest museum in the world, spending just a few hours there will not scratch the surface so we focused on areas we didn't see on our last trip more than a decade ago. We saw what we could in the few hours we walked around but needed to leave when the group got hungry. I think we would have rather visited in the morning when they first open to enjoy the sights with "maybe" smaller crowds initially but also when we weren't tired already from a busy day of sightseeing. The tickets came with admission only, no guide or help inside unless we paid for something more.

We enjoyed several outstanding meals in all the cities we visited especially Paris. Chateau de Belle Fountaine in Bayeux, the house restaurant in Le Relais Saint Michel and Colere in Paris were especially memorable. The dinner cruise on the Seine was also excellent. Also want to give an extra shout out to La Guingette de Montbazon for a great casual meal and complimentary ride back to Chateau Artigny.

Castles & Home-Cooked Lunch: Chenonceau, Villesavin & Chambord

Amboise

Another spectacular day with excellent tours of Chateau Chenonceau and Chateau Chambord. Our lunch at Chateau Villlesavin was excellent. Dimitri was a fantastic guide and fun to be around. Travel from Chateau Artigny in Montbazon to Amboise, where we had to meet Dimitri, was long and expensive. We learned from others staying at Chateau Artigny that we could have met Dimitri in Tours which is much closer to Montbazon.

Just got back from an amazing trip to Morocco. Hakim did great job with the itinerary and picked hotels that were amazing. We really enjoyed our driver, Adil, who was with us for the 10 days. The guides were also fantastic. Especially Abdul in Rabat and the food tour with Hynan in Marrakech. For the food tour, go hungry. As Hynan said, it’s not a tasting tour, it’s an eating tour.

It was all such a great experience. I will definitely be using KimKim again.

Our trip that we booked through KimKim with our agent Erika was better than we even dreamed it could be! From the very beginning we were amazed at how perfectly Erika had matched the tours to our distinct likes and wants. The food tour in Athens with Alternative Athens was so fascinating to be able to understand the story behind why this food and the way it is prepared is important and what to look for when buying these items. Sitting around the tables with others as conversations erupted and enjoying the food was a highlight. Naxos was our favorite island and one we know we would choose to return to. The Adriana hotel was so convenient and beautiful with the ability to walk to everything within 10 minutes, and we loved eating our lovely breakfast outside every morning. The countryside walk with Naxos Cultural Tours was absolutely amazing and our guide Elizabeth was fantastic. Her knowledge and just overall kindness and joy about everything and everyone we encountered was intoxicating. The Gerofinikas Hotel on Sifnos though was the ultimate highlight of our trip. It was like walking into a dream world of luxury that we didn't know existed! Everything is geared around being outside and all your needs were met with such quiet kindness. The staff truly made you believe they existed only to make your trip magnificent. From delicious food eaten outside with the most stunning landscape, to handcrafted drinks from the bar to the on demand coffee shop we felt so pampered. We truly did not want to leave that magical place. The experience we will never forget though was the cooking class at Narlis Farms. Cooking with George in his farmhouse, walking his farm as he educated us on farming without water, and then eating the dishes we made around his large kitchen table will be what we will continue to daydream about for many years. Milos was full of beautiful beaches that continued to take your breath away, and the catamaran adventure would've been much more enjoyable if it hadn't been 65 and cloudy, but no one can control the weather! We loved our food and wine tour though with Micheal from Travel Me to Milos! We felt like we were hanging out with an old friend who truly wanted us to love his home and we could've stayed with him all day. All in all, the trip was way more than we had hoped to experience, and we truly didn't have one low point or regret. I've never been able to say that about an international trip, so we are extremely grateful to KimKim and have told all our friends about the great value of your travel agency. Thank you!

Naxos Town

We loved the ability to walk to anything we desired in town. Everything was within a 10 minute walk. The morning breakfast were such a highlight as well as the food was a wide range of delicious authentic Greek food and we always chose the option of eating outside on the covered patio amongst the beautiful flowers and weather. The owners were so helpful and we even rented a car through them that gave us the ability to travel all across the island. Our room was spacious and very comfortable with a large shared sundeck and view of the city. A great experience!

Gerofinikas Boutique Hotel

Sifnos

The Gerofinikas Hotel was like stepping into a magical land of luxury from the first moment we walked through the entrance in the hedge. We both seriously gasped! The extraordinary view that you receive from anywhere that you're outside in the resort is worth the stay alone, but the experience doesn't end there. They pamper you with a private small scale restaurant only available to guests that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, where you can either eat inside or on the covered patio with that incredible view. A full service coffee bar and bar open all day where they will serve you by the pool or lounging area. Each room has a secluded patio with that once again incredible view where you can lounge away. The staff was so calming and kind and truly made you feel that they existed to make your stay the best it could possibly be. It is only a 10-15 min walk from two nearby towns with many restaurant offerings as well if you choose to go out. Our stay at the Gerofinikas Boutique Hotel will forever be the highlight or our trip to Greece, and I will go so far to say that you should go to Sifnos, if only to experience this hotel. We will never forget it.

Taking this tour with Michael was like hanging out with an old friend from the moment we got in the car. He was so fun, knowledgeable and real about growing up on this island, the good and the bad.

This experience was hands down the highlight of our trip. Getting to spend this time with George around his table, in his kitchen and as he walked us through his fields explaining how to grow produce without water will be an experience we will never forget. His knowledge and love for preserving these ancient ways enchanted us and helped us realize what life on this island was truly like and what is being lost. Plus when do you get to sit around a table with a celebrity chef getting to eat food that he lovingly prepared? It was like being invited over for a family dinner but with a loving education provided as well. This is definitely a not to be missed experience for foodies and nature lovers alike!

We had the most amazing time with our wonderful guide Elizabeth who was so kind and truly joyful with everyone and animal we encountered. Her love and knowledge of Naxos completely shown through, and she led us on the most charming walking tour through several villages. When she learned of my love for Greek mythology, she immediately begin weaving her great knowledge of the local area with so many of the stories. This is something I will not forget! To be able to connect so many of this iconic stories with actual real places was amazing. The food, wine, liquor and people we became acquainted with through her were definitely a highlight of our trip to Greece. You don't want to miss this tour!

The car was very luxurious and seemed brand new.

This trip was a 'bucket list' adventure for my mother-in-law, who is in her late 70s and very active and engaged with the world. Adam worked with us to see and experience as much as we could in 9 days, 4 different areas, and a variety of activities. I can say without hesitation that the trip exceeded our expectations, not only because Portugal is a welcoming country with a rich and long history, but because all of our drivers, guides and accommodations were exceptional. There were 2 instances when plans needed to shift or an activity was cancelled due to weather or operator reasons. The KimKim team helped us to pivot easily and refunds for cancelled activities were processed quickly and without hassle. We landed in Lisbon and trained to Porto the first day, which really helped manage jetlag and made a lot of sense for flow of travel. In Porto we had a fabulous driver (Miguel) who arranged for us to go to a fado dinner in Gaia, a little more off the beaten track. It was incredibly memorable and evocative. Our accommodation at Quinta do Vallado in the Duoro Valley was exceptional and the private wine tour with Vasco from Quinta Barquieros D'Ouro felt like the perfect way to see and learn about the wine making in this region. My favourite activity was the 2-hour cycling through vineyards. It was beautiful with stops to pick cherries from the trees. My mother-in-law was in awe of the Joanina Library in Coimbra and that experience was 100% her favourite memory. Also, it was nearing the annual party for the students of the University of Coimbra so we got to experience a small taste of their academic and social traditions. Finally, the bustle of Lisbon was a great finish, as was the day trip to Sintra and Cascais. Thanks to all the folks at KimKim and their excellent choices of guides and drivers, we had the best trip to Portugal we could imagine!

Michael and Gil were great! Bayeux was a nice town. Wish we had stayed one more day. Both guides we had for our tours were great. So informative and interesting. We had two really nice dinners and some good wine. Overall, really glad we added this short trip to our cruise.

My husband and I had always wanted to travel to Turkey, but we were unsure how to navigate the country and fit so much into a 10-day trip. We booked through KimKim, and Berat, Murat, and Hulya took care of all the details for us. We spent four days in Istanbul, three days in Cappadocia, one day in Ephesus, and two days in Bodrum. It was wonderful not to worry about the logistics; everything from domestic flights and private transfers to hotel accommodations was arranged for us.

All three of our guides were amazing. Zekiye showed us around Istanbul for two days, providing interesting historical and local context along the way while being incredibly personable. From historic sites like the Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace to a trip across the Bosphorus to Kadikoy, we were able to experience many different sides of Istanbul. Efe spent two days with us in Cappadocia and took great care of us, facilitating fun and engaging visits to Kaymakli Underground City, Goreme Open Air Museum, and a local pottery shop in Avanos. Finally, Ozan took us to Ephesus for the day and even showed us around a bit of Izmir near our hotel. He brought great energy to the Ephesus tour and was very knowledgeable about the site's history.

We would definitely recommend the KimKim team to anyone traveling to Turkey! Turkey is a beautiful county, and we are already discussing when we can return for another visit.

Our trip to Ireland and Scotland was absolutely amazing.
We began in Dublin and stayed at the Kilronan House, a quaint place with a bed and breakfast feel. The rooms were extremely comfortable. The musical pub crawl was fun, also. A perfect introduction to Ireland! Then, we picked up our rental car (super easy process) and drove to Cashel to see the Rock of Cashel. We had pre-purchased vouchers for all of our planned stops, which I highly recommend b/c we were able to bypass several lines for ticket purchasing. We even took a random exit advertising Cahir Castle, which happened to have free admission on Wednesdays! In Killarney, we stayed at the Killaran House for 2 nights. Breda and her staff were exceptional! Our private guided tour of the Ring of Kerry was one of our trip highlights. Martin O'Riordan with M.O.R. Executive Travel IS THE BEST TOUR GUIDE. We all loved him. We took a horse & carriage tour of Killarney National Park & Castle (which was within walking distance of the Killaran House). Then, we drove to Doolin and toured the Cliffs of Moher, which were breath-taking. Our last top of the day was Galway (Hyde Hotel). The next day we drove to Belfast and dropped off the rental car. (I'm so glad we had a rental car - it gave us much more freedom.) A private transfer driver was waiting on us. (Cathy did a great job arranging all of our transportation needs!) We checked in to the Leonardo Hotel and then visited the Titanic experience. We had another private tour of the Antrim Coast and the Giant's Causeway. (We all agreed that we liked the private tours much better than the guided bus tour.) Cathy booked our flight to Inverness, Scotland from Belfast and arranged our transportation to/from the airports. She also booked our Loch Ness boat tour, our day trip to the Isle of Skye, and our train tickets from Inverness to Stirling to Edinburgh. Traveling by train was very easy and our lodging at the Redcliffe Hotel in Inverness included a wonderful view of Inverness Castle. Our lodging in Edinburgh (Apex Grassmarket Hotel) also included an incredible view of Edinburgh Castle. We felt really spoiled by Cathy. My family was very grateful for Cathy's expertise and knowledge in planning our trip to Ireland and Scotland. She made our vacation easy to navigate, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time in Ireland and Scotland.
