The entire trip in Thailand was absolutely amazing and a once in a lifetime must! Kien from Kim Kim planned our trip perfectly. We flew into Bangkok spent a few days there, then flew into Chiang Mai and spent a few days there with our last destination in Phuket.

Our guides were phenomenal. "Ae" took special care of us in Bangkok and Lisa did the same in Phuket.

We stayed at the most amazing hotel in Phuket where we upgraded to a super luxury villa which made our trip more memorable! The Slate is the most beautiful hotel, ever!

Some of our most memorable activities include the elephant sanctuary and cooking dinner with the locals in Chiang Mai, eating out in Bangkok and checking out the floating and railroad market, getting tailored suits made and daily massages and of course Phi Phi Island in Phuket ! We enjoyed being picked up by our guide at each airport too!

Kim Kim was perfect!

Hi Larissa and Ray,

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words and for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. It truly means a lot to me!

I’m so happy to hear that your Thailand journey was such a special experience and that you created so many wonderful memories together. It was genuinely a pleasure helping plan this trip for your family.

I’m especially glad to hear that Ae and Lisa took great care of you, and that you enjoyed so many of the experiences, from the floating market and street food in Bangkok to the elephant sanctuary, cooking experience in Chiang Mai, and beautiful time in Phuket. And of course, I’m so happy you loved The Slate. It really is a stunning property.

Thank you again for trusting me with such an important family trip. Wishing you and your family all the very best, and I hope I’ll have the chance to help you plan another adventure in the future.

Warmly,
Kien
