Wow what can I say - this was the best holiday experience we have had. Coming from London we usually book with UK based companies but I decided to try kimkim based on the exceptional reviews and individualised tour options. My wife and I were not dissapointed and Louis delivered a tailor made itinerary that met all our expectations and more. A huge thank you to Louis for this and his excellent communication throughout the process.
Our guides Said (Marrakesh) and Mustafa (Fes) were both knowledgeable, friendly and adapted our tour so that we interacted with the local community so much better than we could have managed by ourselves. We particularly enjoyed the food tour provided by Said on our first day experiencing the culinary delights of real Moroccan food at local places including the legendary snail soup!!
Our driver was Amine and by the end of the trip I can honestly say we became true friends. He was exceptional and I cannot fault him in any way. He is both knowledgeable but can also engage with his clients and adapt to any circumstances thrown at him. His driving was considerate and we felt very safe travelling with him.
There were so many highlights but I think the Camel ride and night in the Sahara Desert topped everything.
I will have no hesitation booking with kimkim for our next trip. Thank you kimkim and the entire team.
Hotel Reviews
Fantastic Riad. Loved the decor and the staff were all very attentive and helpful. Good quite location just next to the Medina.
Fantastic place in the middle of nowhere! Had a superb evening meal here. Great staff.
Wow. Incredible set up. Tents were warm and comfortable. Enjoyed the evening campfire Berber music and the starry night sky!
Beautiful Riad in the Medina. Fantastic breakfast with homemade cardamon honey. Musk shower gel was amazing - we bought 2 bottles to take home. Breakfast was on the terrace so needed to wrap up as cold in Jan but in the summer would be amazing.
Another fantastic location. Local staff which added to authenticity. Great views from our room which was on the 3rd floor terrace area.
Modern hotel in the city which was a welcome change. Lovely spacious room and wide breakfast selection.
Stunning Riad. The rooms are amazing. We were upgraded as they were quite. Best room of the trip. Incredibly nice staff and dinner/breakfast excellent.
This was the worst accommodation of the trip. Although the Riad is in the Medina it was run more as a communal with no locks on the outside of the bedroom doors and breakfast set up on a large table shared with other guests. Although we did not mind it is worth noting if you want time as a couple. The staff were not as attentive or accessible as in the other places we stayed. Considering everywhere else we stayed this was a dissapoitment for our last night.
