I took a fair amount of time working with Yassine, then Louis, to put together a first visit to Morocco that captured all I wanted to see and appreciated their input in offering ideas, suggestions or modifications to help arrive at what I felt was the trip I wanted to take.

I saw the highlights of Casa Blanca, Rabat, Chefchaouen, Fes, the Sahara, Marrakesh and Essaouira. The guides I was paired with were wonderful - Zahra in Fes, Mohammed in Marrakesh and guides used to explain things like the ceramics and leather in Fes, the rug making process, and about argon. During down time, I wondered around the medinas near my riads and felt totally safe.

I went to Morocco solo and was assigned a driver for my trip, Said, who took good care of me. I could not have asked for a better driver who saw to it that I was where I needed to be on time, spoke fluent English, and enjoyed sharing information and answering questions, along with providing some additional suggestions or ideas for stops along the way. Said helped make my trip, that covered a lot of country and time on the road to see what I wanted to see, a huge success.

I have used kimkim twice now and been very happy with the results. Kimkim takes time and effort to help create a trip catered to me and my interests.

Hotel Review
Riad Said
Fès

Riad Said was a great place for me to stay in Fes. I enjoyed the location and easy walking to shops and restaurants. Hassan and K Halid, who helped me from welcoming on check in to helping with my luggage and even showing me the way back out to the main area so I didn't get lost. They were very kind and I felt at home there, they went above and beyond to make my visit nice.

Authenticity & Character
beautiful lobby area and center of the riad, the breakfast was great, loved the decor and special touches through out the riad and my room.
