Kimkim made our large family’s Greece trip, including our small children, absolutely unforgettable, expertly managing diverse itineraries and multiple stops. The spacious rental van was perfect, keeping the kids comfortable and happy during travel between destinations. We stayed at the beautiful Monasteri Guest House, a former monastery whose historic charm and stunning architecture fascinated the kids. After checking in, we watched the sunset over the Meteora rocks, a magical moment our children adored, followed by an authentic Greek dinner at a local taverna in Kalampaka, where the kids gleefully tried new flavors. Meteora’s breathtaking monasteries were awe-inspiring, and the kids were thrilled by the towering rocks and stories of monks, blending stunning views with rich history. In Galaxidi, we stayed at Mira Mare, where the charming environment and yummy breakfast delighted the children, though the beds weren’t very comfortable. The Delphi tour was incredible, brought to life by our exceptional guide, Ilektra, whose passionate storytelling captivated even our little ones, who hung onto her every word. We fell in love with the authentic lunch at the olive grove—a perfect moment where the kids played happily in the serene setting. The transfer into Athens was seamless, keeping the children content, and the accommodations at Athens Manor House were ideal, offering a cozy space for our family. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the vibrant Plaka, with its colorful streets and shops that our kids found endlessly exciting, and visiting the iconic Acropolis, where the children were amazed by the ancient ruins and their grand history. The Greek culture and people were incredible, their warmth and love for children and family shining through in every interaction, making our adventure truly special. Kimkim’s flawless planning and thoughtful details ensured our small children enjoyed every experience, making this trip extraordinary. Highly recommend for any family adventure in Greece!

Hotel Reviews
Monastiri Guesthouse
Kalampaka - Meteora

Absolutely beautiful room in the old building. The details including the chandelier were exquisite. Plenty of room for our family of 4. Beds were extremely comfortable. The whole building itself was beautiful and loved having the pool there (wish we had more time to use it!)

Delphi

The rooms were on the smaller side, however for the “triple” it was only 2 twin beds pushed together with a division in the middle, and another twin bed. The beds were not very comfortable either. The small kitchenette was nice to have. And we enjoying hanging out in the outside patio upstairs. Very close to the water and strip of restaurants. What stood out here was their AMAZING breakfast!

The beds were not very comfortable. And did not enjoy having two twins pushed together with a division down the middle.

Large, spacious room and bathroom. Comfortable beds. Ideal location within walking distance to the Plaka and Acropolis. Breakfast was not spectacular but covered the basics.

Car Rental Pick-up
Greece

Easy to find the pick up spot, clear communication. However since we had a car seat to install, we were there for a bit longer than the alotted “free” time and had to pay $$ on the way out of the airport. Van was “clean” but not spotless.
