Kimkim Trip Reviews

We found the hotel to be a good location. The room and breakfast service was excellent. We appreciated the quiet streets around the hotel. The evening reception was pleasant.

Great guide and explanation of the areas we traveled to

We could have probably done half day vs full day and been fine.

Beautiful hotel. Fantastic service.

Great Location. Easy to walk to most venues from here.

Great Location. Service was good.

Our guide was fantastic. I loved the falls. You could not get enough of the views. I would go back again and see them since they are so amazing.

Traditional buffet and show. It was a little cheezy and the food was fine but not great. Not a ton to do in the city besides visit the falls so a reasonable activity while you are there.

Perfect thing to do the day we traveled so we could do something active and get use to the time change. The view at the top of the hike was beautiful. Great way to get to Rio and see the city from a high vantage point.

We really like Angel the tour guide but the food tour was not what we expected. Stopped at couple places but did not love the food. One place they didn't even have seating. We went to a market and purchased fruits and cheese and breads and then made a picnic from it. Picnic was supposed to be up in the mountains but raining that day so we went to the mall for a picnic. Not a traditional food tour where you went from restraunt to restraunt tasting the food and learning about the local area.

I was nervous about this since had no experience with houses. It was a pretty technical ride up the mountain but our tour guides were amazing and ensured everyone was comfortable and enjoying the ride. The scenery was breathtaking. It was a great experience.

We had split this into 2 days to fit better into our travel schedule. It was the right amout of time to see the highlights of Santiago.

Jenifer who runs the cooking class is absolutely adorable and made the experience so fun. I would definitely recommend this.

This tour was basically a city tour with a walk in the eco area of the river. Very flat walk. Our tour guide was great and customized everything for us on the fly so we could see some new things since we had already been on a city tour.

Very interesting community. Worth going out to Tigre and seeing the delta.

Pretty basic city tour. Gave you the lay of the land so you could walk around later. Big bus so many people on the tour. Repeated everything in 3 languages which got a little annoying.

You have to see a Tango in Buenos Aires. I was skeptical but MaJo talked us into it and it turned out to be very fun. There are numerous Tango venues. This one was excellent. Small venue, beautiful atmoshpere, they picked us up and dropped us off after the show, excellent dinner (one of the best we had on the trip, not a buffet you ordered from a menu and they served some great wines) and the show was very fun.

River was beautiful. Great way to see it in a kayak. It was a small group which was very nice.

Our tour gude was excellent. The falls were breathtaking.

We didn't get to do the bike ride because it was cancelled 2 days before due to weather but the weather improved and we could have done it. The Bay Cruise was nice but nothing exceptional.

Interesting but not a ton to do. We also ended up going on a very raining day which impacted the experience.

This tour was perfect. We saw everyghing you would want to see in Rio. We had an amazing day.

The location and characteristics of the hotel were exactly what we wanted. The location was great ( in the middle of everything but still quiet) and the staff were great. Not only professional but warm and friendly. They also researched a restaurant for us that was exactly what we were looking for. And they arranged for the breakfast to be opened a little early to accommodate our departure time.

The hotel was great. The location was perfect, the staff were very friendly, and we loved the look and feel of our room.

Theodoris was extremely knowledgeable. We learned so much.

A great food tour. We ate and learned a lot about Greek food and culture from our guide, Dmitri.

Sofia was a terrific guide. We learned so much from her.

Great place to stay close to center of Cusco. Room was spacious (though the floorboard was a bit noisy!). Location is best - close to city center so everything was walkable.

Nice fit for multiple travelers staying multiple days who would like a bit of space to relax during sight seeing experiences. Tomas was thorough during his orientation and made our stay enjoyable. Particularly enjoyed listening to the music from below in the evenings.

Andrew is a wealth of knowledge!

Out of all the hotels we stayed in in Italy, this one felt the most familiar to the hotels back in the US (which could be good or bad depending how authentic you want). We had already stayed in two very authentic hotels so it wasn’t bad for us. Breakfasts were wonderful. Staff was so welcoming and attentive. Nicely appointed room. Location is convenient because you’re on one of the main drags in Rome. Being on a major road means it’s also not super quiet but that’s what white noise is for. This was also the only hotel we stayed in that had a GYM which I so appreciated after doing so much eating and drinking the previous week!

Cute older hotel between the shore and all the restaurants, shops, etc. The breakfast in the morning was wonderful. We loved being able to sit outside overlooking the gardens in the morning and evening. Our room was quite large. Only reason it didn’t get five stars was we had some issues with the thermostat in our room. We didn’t tell management so that’s also kind of on us though.

Beautiful older hotel, perfectly located on the edge of the historic city center. Breakfast in the morning was wonderful. Staff was attentive and pleasant. Only reason it didn’t get five stars is our room was pretty tight for two people. We did have a cute little balcony though.

We had a private class with a chef. So much fun and so much wonderful food at the end!

This drive was the most memorable of my entire life. Absolutely breathtaking. And bonus - our driver stopped at several photo op points to let us get out and take pictures.

We loved this beautiful hike and the conversation with our very knowledgeable guide, Enzo.

Absolutely gorgeous and so fun! Definitely take the chair lift to the top of Capri!

Must do for wine lovers!

You can't do any better than staying here! Rodolphe was a fantastic host. He answered our many questions promptly via WhatsApp or in person (with help from Google Translate). The room is absolutely beautiful. Especially loved the bathtub and the huge shower. The place is just a short walk to the harbor at Cassis. Breakfast was delicious. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

The view from our room was amazing. Be sure you book a room with a view over the countryside. Breakfast was incredible. The bathroom tub was a nice bonus because I love soaking in a tub. The only downside of this place is if you want to eat dinner anywhere but the hotel, you will have to drive to another town.

This is a wonderful place because it has a kitchenette, clothes washer and comfortable bed. However, we stayed there on a weekend and be aware it is a college town. We heard people partying and loud music until the wee hours of the morning. For this reason, I cannot give this place 5 stars.

The location makes this hotel the perfect place to stay. Close to everything! A few minutes walk to Notre Dame, the Metro, cafes, bakeries and laundry. Great selection at breakfast. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend. We would definitely stay here again.

Loved all the different food we tasted.

I recommend this trip, but was not happy about the overall trip because our tour van ran out of gas on the highway on the way back to Paris. I heard from our travel agent that this company is usually very good. But, my experience was dimmed by being stuck on the side of a busy highway while our driver made excuses for the empty gas tank.

It was just OK

Service was excellent and room/ view amazing

Loved our beach day to Kamari. Took the public bus and rented lounge chairs and shopped.

Boat trip was fun and food was delicious. Enjoyed swimming and boating.

Guide was great and experience was fun!

Loved our guide, very knowledgeable

Loved our chef Chris! Food was great and venue was beautiful! Wine was delicious

Rooms Tiny but we were only there one night and we were very comfortable

Beautiful setting and grounds. Awesome staff.

Staff was fantastic. Rooms unique and well equipped. AC never got cooled the way we like it but wouldn't change the stars. Breakfast was very nice

Good location. We had everything we needed.

Nice day

We were tired at the end of trip but it was a good experience. Hard to understand accent but was a pleasure

Interesting place

Hard to find the drop off.

Easy pick up.

We felt like the long trip to Ansel Key museum was too far and too hard to reach with the curving roads in our small car. Fig factory was interesting but the food, while very nice was not for us. The food presentation was beautiful and the setting was suberb

Loved the whole day and experience.

Lorenzo was a great guide. Fascinating place

The Riad is beyond beautiful!! So much detail has been given to everything from the floors to the ceilings. One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever had the joy of staying. The food was absolutely amazing, some, if not the best that I enjoyed during my trip. The Staff were amazing as well and went out of their way to make certain the guests were enjoying their stay!! Looking forward to visiting this beautiful Riad again soon!!

Great breakfast buffet! Hotel is walking distance from Gion District and Pontoco Alley.

My brother and I ate authentic Japanese dinner and breakfast. We appreciate the option to dress in a traditional yukata. The onsens were relaxing. I also enjoyed the private open air bath located in our hotel balcony. The hotel also offered free snack bar, complimentary ramen, popsicle and yogurt drink. I bought some Hakone souvenirs from the hotel gift shop.

Good hotel. Close to metro train station and the local fish market. The breakfast buffet had a good variety of food and drinks.

Our guide gave good background info about both sites. After our hike up Fushimi Inari we ate delicious green tea ice cream infused with gold specs. I learned the original golden pavilion was burned down and had to be rebuilt! At Kinkaju Temple, we stopped by a station where you pick up a rock. The effort it takes to pick up the rock provides estimated time for your wish to come true. We also saw a rock island shaped as a turtle that symbolizes longevity and a waterfall where if a koifish jumps above a waterfall it becomes a dragon; similar to how Magikarp eventually evolves into a Gyarados!

The weather was clear enough for us to see Mt Fuji! We learned the floating Tori Gate at Lake Ashi is meant to provide good luck for couples. Our guide also said Hakone used to be a crucial checkpoint between Tokyo and Kyoto.

The monkey trail offered pit stops for us to pause and learn more about them before feeding them. To avoid overfeeding the monkeys, each group is limited to feeding the monkeys a pack of apples or peanuts. The Bamboo forest is beautiful and well maintained.
