This trip was wonderful. The work that the KimKim team put into everything showed. The tours were well planned. The hotels were better than I could have hoped. Everything worked seamlessly. Our advisors were great about quick responses to questions and provide helpful suggestions. The tapas tour was exceptional. That along with the tour of Seville were our favorites. I would definately spend more time in both Seville and Malaga and incorporate more down time as the tours were so informative the downtime was a must. I would certainly plan another trip with this group!

Hotel Reviews
Petit Palace Posada del Peine
Madrid

This hotel was a little hard four our taxi to get to / find, but perfectly located for all tours. It enabled us to be in the middle of everything going on.

Joya del Casco Boutique Hotel
Seville

I loved this hotel. The rooms, the food, the staff, the rooftop patio…..everything was so great!!!!!! Our only downside was the air conditioning was not working one of our nights. Otherwise this is definately the best place to stay. I would have stayed longer if possible.

Authenticity & Character
The rooftop patio is a hidden gem. We spent each evening there looking at the city, relaxing with dessert from nearby shops.
Location
Located near city center and all activities.
Staff
Incredibly nice and accommodating.

Hotel Palacete de Alamos
Málaga

We stayed in the related apartments for this location. There was a little confusion initially as the apartments are not adjacent to the hotel, but a little walk. However, the location of the apartment was better than the hotel. Everything was very nice here and easy to use.

Authenticity & Character
Location
City center, great location to go through the city and get to the beach or the sites.

Sleep´N Atocha
Madrid

This was extremely convenient getting off the train and to the hotel. I would not stay here more than one night. It is definately for a younger crowd who plans to be out every night.

This was our best tour! The guide was a native to Seville. You could tell he knew everything about his city which made the tour even better. He was extremely thoughtful and helped us with taking group photos and ensuring that we got the best experience. Highly recommend this tour and this guide.

A must do. This was one of the best tours of our trip. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. She took us places and had us try so many things that were special to Spain. I would highly recommend this tour. I would make sure to take pictures of the signs for the restaurants so you can go back. They were top notch.
