KimKim planned our trip to Peru, and I cannot praise them highly enough. From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless, stress-free, and incredibly well-organised.

From our very first conversation, it was clear that our travel agent, Liz and her team were truely professional. They took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for in this trip, offering insightful suggestions and tailoring the itinerary to match our family interests perfectly. Their deep knowledge of Peru ensured that every moment of our journey was memorable. The level of detail and care that went into planning was impressive. Every aspect of the trip, from flights and accommodations to guided tours and transportation, was meticulously arranged. They even provided with helpful tips and recommendations for dining and shopping, which greatly enhanced our experience. The outdoor activities were well arranged and we throughly enjoyed river water rafting and the Quad bike experience.

The trip exceeded all our expectations. The accommodations were top-notch, the local guides in Arequipa, Colca (Peter), Machu Pichu (Raul) and Amazonas (Víctor) were knowledgeable and personable, and the itinerary struck the perfect balance between adventure and relaxation. Whether we were exploring the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu through the Inca trail, wandering the charming streets of Cusco, or enjoying the beauty of Colca Valley, everything was well executed.

In summary, KimKim delivered an exceptional travel experience that my family will treasure forever. Their expertise and attention to detail, makes them definitely standout. I would recommend KimKim to anyone looking to plan an amazing trip of a lifetime and definitely be using their services again for my future travels!

Inca trail is a must do and unforgettable experience. While it tested our resilience, we enjoyed every part of the trail with some breathtaking views of the valley and finishing of with amazing views of Machu Pichu.

Was fantastic experience and loved every part of this trip to the Amazon forests. Right from landing in Puerto Maldonado to reaching the lodge through the river, Rainforest expeditions were excellent in organising every aspect of the trip and making it memorable! We enjoyed the stay at Refugio, the lounge, rooms, food and staff hospitality. Our guide Victor was amazing and gave us unforgettable experience showing different animals and creatures and all the forest walks very great!
