As someone who has never used a travel agent before to book a trip, booking through KimKim was VERY easy!
We booked our honeymoon with the goal of having a relaxing tour or Italy and we got just that. We started in the Amalfi Coast, then went to Sorrento, and ended in Rome! The Amalfi Coast had to be our favorite place to be in. It felt the most authentic to the culture! We took a boat tour of the Capri Island and would recommend that same tour to anyone. If you are looking for an even more intimate version of it, see if your agent can book it to be completely privet for you. Our tour was not privet but only had 6 people on the boat and we still had a great time! Our first day in the Amalfi Coast it rained. Which meant that our boat tour had to be canceled. The agency worked very fast to fix this for us and make sure we got to experience everything that we had planned. It actually worked out for us because it gave us the chance to explore and enjoy the area.
In Sorrento we did a Pompeii and Herculaneum tour in the same day. If you decide to do something like this, my suggestion to you would be to either chose one to do or do them in two separate days. It was A LOT of walking in VERY hot weather. Neither location has much coverage in terms of shade. Bring an umbrella to help! We saw so many people who did that and we wished we had thought of doing the same. Between the two tours I personally enjoyed the Herculaneum tour most. There felt like there was more to see of what remained, but both were an amazing experience. Our tour guide and bus driver that picked us up at the meeting location to bring us on our tours were great. Only thing I wished they had done was keep the AC on or did something to make sure that the bus was cooled off for our transport between the two tours. The other thing we did while in Sorrento was a tour of a vineyard. It was called Cantina Del Vesuvio. Highly recommend if you enjoy wine. The experience was amazing. We did a very brief tour and then sat on an outdoor patio that overlooked the city (Great view) and they served us food to eat that paired well with their wine!
Lastly we ended our trip with four days in Rome. I was a little confused when we checked into our hotel room, as I thought when booking I had requested a specific room, and we did not end up in said room. I may not have explained my desire for the specific room well enough and by the time we got to the hotel the room was unavailable.
We did a full day private tour of the Colosseum and Vatican. This was fully private, it was just my husband, myself, and our tour guide. He knew his stuff! Very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a slight confusion with the guide when it came to lunch and transportation to the Vatican from the Colosseum, but it was sorted out! The next day we had a private Borghese Gallery and Garden tour. Our itinerary had it listed however it was not private. It was a small group of less than 15 people. We just figured that it would have been private the same way the previous day's tour was. The art in that museum was well worth the tour and the tour guide was really awesome! Our last day in Rome was for us to explore at our leisure. Looking back I may have made it so that we used our extra day in the Amalfi Coast instead. But overall, the trip was an experience of a lifetime. I would 100% use KimKim again for our next trip! Another great thing about using KimKim is your agent is available to you at all times. Moreno was so quick to respond anytime I messaged him with questions or concerns. No corners felt cut and we walked away very happy!
Great experience.
