Our guide in Tulum was truly amazing. He was artistic, knowledgeable, and spoke normal English. What impressed us most was how genuinely passionate he was about his country and its culture. He didn’t just share information with us — he wanted us to understand, appreciate, and love Yucatán as much as he does. His enthusiasm and personal touch made the experience especially memorable.
The hotel in Valladolid was absolutely wonderful and one of the highlights of our trip. It had such an authentic, elegant, and classy design — the kind of place you know you will remember forever.

The hotel consists of two beautiful, completely different buildings, and the staff kindly showed us both and offered us the choice of which room we preferred. This made the experience even more special.

The staff were extremely friendly and spoke very good English. The food was also excellent. Everything about the stay felt warm, authentic, and special.

For us, the hotel itself was almost a sightseeing experience — not just a place to stay, but a place to discover and enjoy. It was truly a pleasure to stay there.
A special mention absolutely has to go to our driver, Carlo (or Karlo), who was Italian and is married to a Maya woman.

He was an exceptional person and, in my opinion, has all the qualities to become a fantastic guide. His English was excellent, he knew an incredible amount about Yucatán, and, most importantly, he genuinely loved the region and its culture. He even speaks the Maya language and taught us some Maya expressions during the trip, which was a wonderful personal touch.

Uxmal was the absolute highlight of the tour for me. I loved it — the site itself was fascinating and truly impressive. Our guide there was also good and made the visit even more interesting.

The hotel in Mérida was d comfortable. However, it was a much more standard hotel and, for us, could not really be compared with the wonderful hotel in Valladolid, which was a memorable experience in itself.

The transportation throughout the tour was very good. Everything was well organized, the cars were comfortable, and we felt well taken care of during the journey.

Many thanks to the entire KIMKIM team for organizing our trip. Everything was very well planned and professionally arranged, and we felt well taken care of throughout the journey.
You are true professionals, and we have already recommended KIMKIM to our friends.
