Our family of four had an amazing experience planning our Portugal trip with Kimkim! 🇵🇹

Adam and Summer were wonderful throughout the entire planning process. They really listened to our requirements, especially when it came to hotel locations, and the hotels they selected were in fantastic locations and worked perfectly for our family.

The activities and experiences throughout the trip were also very thoughtfully chosen. Every vendor we worked with was professional and met—and often exceeded—our expectations.

What impressed us most was the support throughout the entire trip. Adam, Summer, and the rest of the team were always there to answer questions and assist us whenever we needed anything along the way. It made traveling to a new country feel easy and stress-free.

This was our first trip planned through Kimkim, and based on our experience in Portugal, it definitely won’t be our last. We would happily use them again for many more trips in the future. Highly recommend!

We checked in very late at night so no one could go over hotel info that time. It’s understandable but next day even we were not told all the highlights of this hotel. We found out in our own very last day that hotel had beautiful hiking trail right behind and there was an easy access to that trail for hotel guests. Wish we would have know that on day 1. That hiking trail was stunning and we got glimpse of it and would have enjoyed extra time in hiking.

We did not know thjs tour can be done with dolphin viewing too. Wish we had given that option. We couldn’t do separate dolphin tour as they were sold out.

It was not all that and we could have done this on our own and felt like it could have been better with guide. What we did was something very basic.

It was not all that and rather do trails that specifically for hiking for views.
