To review my experience with KimKim is my pleasure! From the first moment working with KimKim to a few days after the trip, and everything in between, was a great experience.The specialist that we worked with, Hanna, was outstanding. She was a great listener, didn't mind the tweaks we suggested, and even contacted us during the trip to say that she heard that our whale watching trip had been cancelled (not KimKim's fault) and that she was already working on the refund. Iceland was not originally on our "bucket list" but should have been. It is a beautiful country - landscapes we have never seen before. The coastline was stark and waveless, while the volcanic grassland was sparsely dotted with colorful farmhouses and steam vents. So beautiful and so different! From the rental car Hanna helped arrange, to the hotels, to the daily schedule - all were spot on! Thank you KimKim and Hanna for a wonderful trip! I will make sure that anyone I know who has a travel need that KimKim can assist with, I will strongly recommend you. Here's to working with you again!
Hotel Reviews
Storm Hotel was fine, but the parking issue was a surprise. They only have about six spots, and we ended up parking in a grocery store's lot after 4:30 PM to avoid tickets. More available parking would have been appreciated.
Vogafjós Farm Resort had a cute, log cabin-like room, but it lacked ventilation. Without a fan or working exhaust, the room got hot and stuffy, especially with the afternoon sun. Despite this discomfort, watching cows being milked and witnessing a live birth was an unforgettable experience.
The Hill Hotel Fludir had a disappointing room layout with little space for luggage. The outdoor patio was not inviting with spider webs everywhere. This was our least favorite accommodation during the trip.
This was the best hotel we stayed in during a 2 week trip. It was beautifully decorated and the room was simply perfect.
Activity Review
This was a great activity. Our guide was fantastic and we really enjoyed ourselves.
Dear Danielle and Jim, thank you so much for this fantastic and detailed review!
I’m thrilled you enjoyed Katla Ice Cave Tour which is one of my favourite activities.
It’s wonderful to hear the planning made the trip stress-free and let you fully enjoy Iceland’s highlights!
All the best from Iceland,
Hanna
