Eirini was very helpful and very responsive throughout the entire planning process. She was able to make changes to our trip without trouble and provided excellent suggestions and guidance for our trip to Italy. Eirini connected us to a local guide while we were in Italy and although we were a little confused as to why we were connected to a different person, Eirini still was there to answer our questions, along with Francesca from StoryWalking who was our more direct contact during our trip. Eirini chose great accommodations and food tours for us to be a part of and it was so nice to have all of the accommodations and reservations taken care of for us. We did run into a problem on our trip, that was out of both KimKim/StoryWalking's control and our control. We were a little stressed out at having to spend more money because of this issue however, Francesca from StoryWalking was able to help us out throughout the process and helped to ease us and provide us with private transportation, even though it was originally not going to be possible.
Hotel Reviews
This hotel was absolutely perfect! We were blown away when we walked into this beautiful suite. We couldn't believe how big the room was and how nice all the accessories in the room were. The staff was so nice and helpful and the breakfast included each morning was intimate and very good. The location of the hotel was great and the water taxi was able to pick us up right next to the check-out location.
We are so sad we only got to spend one night at this amazing boutique hotel. Silvia, took AMAZING care of us from the second we walked in the door. She greeted us with such kindness and provided us with local recommendations for food and shopping. The room was beautiful and very large. The common area was beautiful and nice and quiet. Breakfast in the morning was intimate and very good! The cappuccino was the absolute best we had in all of Italy! When we return some day back to Florence, we will absolutely be staying at this boutique hotel again.
This hotel was a little confusing to get to but it was beautiful and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The bed was the comfiest bed we slept in all vacation. The room had a great view of Mount Vesuvius and was nice and spacious. Breakfast in the morning was very good and the gentleman serving the breakfast was very nice.
This B&B was breathtaking! The B&B had someone carry our bags down the stairs to our room and the entire staff was very friendly and helpful. The common space at the hotel was absolutely gorgeous and very peaceful. Our room was very beautiful with an incredible balcony and view. The bathroom was a little tight and strangely did not have much privacy however, it was still very nice. Breakfast was so nicely served to our room each morning and we got to choose as much food as we wanted! It was so nice to sit out on our balcony and eat every morning. I was surprised when we walked in the room that it was different from what was pictured on the itinerary however, it was still very nice. A wonderful surprise at the end of our stay was a gift of lemon pasta from the staff as we checked out. It was just one of the many impressive touches this B&B had.
Activity Reviews
This was a very short ride and it was a little confusing trying to find the correct gondola meeting point. The guide was fun and provided history along the way. I do wish the ride was a little longer however, it was very memorable!
What an awesome experience this was!! Our main guide was Mara and she was training a guide named, Viola, during our private tour. Both ladies were absolutely amazing and so friendly. They provided us with so much history and local tips along the way. They were both so enjoyable to spend this time with and the stops along this tour were all incredible and delicious! The stops were all very special to Florence culture and it was the most different and delicious food we had on our trip. I would do this tour again and would highly recommend either Mara or Viola!
This tour was very unique and unexpected! This tour helped us to see the beauty and the amazing culture and history of Naples. All the stops were delicious and there were plenty of them, including a nice surprise of a limoncello stop. Very unique food items that we would never have thought to stop at if we didn't have this tour. The timing of the tour was perfect with it being at night-time. The streets of Naples really come alive at night!! My only "negative" comment is that some of the stops felt a bit "tourist trappy" and at 2 of the stops, the workers there were trying to get us to buy other stuff instead of just letting us be on the tour. What we were alerted to as "tourist traps" from locals appeared to fit the bill at the fried pizza and the regular pizza stops. Despite this, all the food was still very delicious!
This boat tour was a once in a lifetime experience!! The boat was comfortable and the driver of the boat, Enzo, was very good! He made the ride super smooth and even when navigating some waves, I never felt like the boat ride was choppy. Guilia, our guide, was extremely informative and very helpful throughout. She communicated via WhatsApp with us and this helped us to feel super comfortable and confident in being in the correct spot for the boat. We were able to stop in Capri for 3 hours and then we were able to go for a quick swim in a great, secluded spot, near the coast. There was a champagne toast during the ride and a limoncello toast with a biscuit. We were lucky and ended up meeting the nicest people on the boat with us that day.
