Sep 18 - Sep 28, 2025
The trip was fantastic and a big shout out to Beatriz on her coordination of the trip. Every guide and driver was always on time and did a great job during our visits to Northern Italy and Portugal. The hike in the Dolomites and the guided tour to the Douro Valley were two of the highlights of the trip. The choice of the hotels set up by Beatriz were perfect as well. Based on our experience with KimKim, I have recommended them to friends/family and we are working with KimKim on another trip in 2026.
Hotel Reviews
The hotel was a great location and the staff was outstanding. Great breakfast. The one minor issue, the temperatures outside were warm and the hotel rooms just did not cool down and the rooms stayed warm for all of our traveling party, even during sleeping hours.
Vey nice hotel and recommend it if you need a hotel close to the airport.
The hotel was very nice and we would recommend it to others . Staff was very professional and breakfast was excellent.
The staff at this hotel was some of nicest people of any hotel we stayed at and would go out of their way to assist you. The rooms and beds were very nice. Breakfast was excellent as well.
