Kimkim Trip Reviews

The block is like a hidden gem

Great hotel with beautiful sight lines and an amazing staff

Great easy going hotel that affords you to be you

This was a centrally located property with a great staff who meet your needs at the door without being pushy

Another life changing moment for me

This tour was life changing for me

Unfortunately I did not make this tour either, it was a lot going on

Interesting break from one place to another

Definitely one of the best experiences I have ever had

Unfortunately I did not get to go to this tour, I was just burnt out lol but I do still have pictures from my previous tour where I still got to take photos

My guide was funny and ver knowledgeable

Visiting teamLab Borderless in Azabudai Hills was mesmerizing! The immersive experience was like nothing I've seen before and it was one of the most enjoyable parts of the trip. The colors and interactive displays were enchanting.

Our last day in Tokyo was incredible. The mix of guided and self-guided tours throughout the trip meant we never felt rushed. There was always something new and exciting to see, which kept the adventure alive till the very end.

Exploring Tokyo in a day was one of the highlights of the trip. The cultural, cuisine, and serene aspects amidst the bustling city provided such a diverse experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. The guide was flexible and knowledgeable, adapting the tour to suit our energy levels and making sure we could experience things at our own pace.

Very clean, spacious, wonderful breakfast, great location, comfortable bed, good shower, very helpful staff , a very nice room.

I wouldn’t miss this Tour. We had a small group of four. The tour guide was fabulous filled with information that she gave to us readily with good English and was very pleasant making our visit even more wonderful.

Beautifully located with views of the harbour and lake.

Great hotel in Uyuni. We enjoyed our meals in the hotel.

The hotel was in a quiet location, just outside of the town.

An interesting experience!

La Casona is conveniently located in La Paz, and close to the Witches’ Market and shops. Staff were helpful and courteous and the view from the breakfast room on the 6th floor was beautiful. The rooms were clean and comfortable.

David did an amazing job of sharing the best of La Paz. We loved the gondola rides over the city, and the walk through the historic old town. David’s English is excellent. We enjoyed learning about the people of Bolivia and their traditions and beliefs. We even added a stop for some specialty coffee at HB Bronze in La Paz.

We enjoyed a scenic and culturally informative trip to the islands.

David, our guide, and Sergio, our driver, met us at La Paz airport and then on to Copacabana. David was very informative and eager to answer all of our questions.

The excursion today was expected to take about 14 hours, given some of the slow and bumpy road conditions in the south. My husband was not feeling well, so we visited the flamingoes in the lagoons, and skipped the green and red lagoons and geysers. This still took about 7 hours. I think the days are not balanced in terms of drive time - day 2 seemed lighter and day 3 too long. I would suggest a different mix of hotels to allow drivers to reach the south in a more reasonable time.

More interesting landscapes - we especially enjoyed the unexpected rock formations which we toured at the end of the day.

We loved spending the day in the Slat Flats - it was a beautiful, white landscape, with many surprising features. Sunset was a picturesque finish to the day.

We were met at the airport on time and delivered to our hotel as per the itinerary. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Highlight

Absolutely beautiful hotel with incredibly caring staff!

A great hotel with large comfortable rooms, excellent breakfast and just minutes to the main downtown

Clean and comfortable with attentive staff

A beautiful hotel in the jungle!

Beautiful rooms! Lots of space for families!!

Charming hotel with lovely staff and the friendliest dogs around

This a charming and beautiful hotel. Nikki at the front desk was so helpful and pleasant to work with!

Lovely, clean hotel with spacious room close to the historic central part of Cusco

Our driver and guide, Christian, is so helpful and attentive. He got us to the airport on 2 occasions and each time in a way that was stress or worry free. The day we spent at the middle of the world was so fun as well!

Our tour didn’t actually end up following the itinerary. It was amazing nonetheless! We started snorkeling at Daphne island then went to Pinzon after lunch. There was no fishing experience. Other guests were able to request their meal for lunch but we were not invited to do so or it was not mentioned ahead of time to us. It was a bit of a problem for me but the staff improvised on the boat and got me a meal that was safe for me to eat due to a medical condition. That was appreciated!

We got to see nesting Blue footed Boobies! Definitely the highlight of the day

Loved being here to see all the research and projects going on to protect this amazing archipelago

So cool to see these creatures up close in their natural habitat

We had a great first day just exploring the town ourselves

Very cool to see so many hummingbirds so closely!

This had to be canceled due to the protests in Otavalo

Due to communication confusion, we were just driven from our lodge in the Amazon to Quito. We inquired before leaving about seeing the waterfalls and caves but were told we were only being driven to Quito. Thankfully we reached out to Majo at lunch and still managed to go to the Thermals at least.

A cool learning experience to understand the chocolate making process

So busy! It’s a long day but very interesting and worthwhile

So much fun!!! Loved it

We loved it here. We enjoyed the kayaking and the breathtaking views both from the beauty and the altitude!

We were caught in a huge thunderstorm with rain, hail and lightning. We decided to keep our ride short because we were getting cold but the ponchos provided by the riding centre were very appreciated

The tour we went on, the City tour hop-on-hop off was good but we never actually went to the Middle of the World or the Teleferico as described.

Truly a must see! As good as everyone says it is… and more!

A wonderful tour with lots to see and do.

Adriel our guide took us for another amazing tour day! The mines literally made me say ‘wow’ when we first saw them. Morray was so impressive to see.

We learned so much about Cusco and the Inca during this trip. Our guide Adriel was exceptional

Tokoriki Island Resort was absolutely wonderful. It was perfect for an adult vacation, which is exactly what we were looking for. The highlight was definitely the outdoor shower – such a unique experience! The Island felt genuinely Fijian and offered a real escape from our everyday life. The staff were amazing, making us feel very welcome. It was like a fancy island experience. The only downside was feeling a bit isolated after a few days, but that’s the charm of a secluded resort. Overall, it made our trip really special.

Sofitel Fiji Resort And Spa was a nice change of pace from the island resort. I enjoyed the variety of food, which was diverse and somewhat authentic, including some Indian dishes. It felt more versatile and had different types of activities which was refreshing after the more isolated island resort. However, despite being a nice location and having its merits, it did feel more like something we could find closer to home in terms of the environment.

This hotel was an old palace. It was so beautiful.

A wonderful way to start the trip. Hamman and massage at the spa on site washed away the long travel day!

Our guide in Rabat was excellent. Although we were with him for a relatively short time, his guidance added a lot to our understanding and enjoyment of the city. I would definitely recommend this guided tour to anyone visiting Rabat.

The driving tour of Casablanca was nice, but the lunch spot our driver took us to was a bit too touristy for our taste. While the view was beautiful, the food wasn't very good. For future visitors, I would recommend asking for more authentic and interesting dining options.

Our guide Hassan in Fes was equally fantastic and wonderful. His expertise and friendliness enhanced our tour, making it a memorable experience. I highly recommend taking a guided tour with him.

Our guided tour of Marrakech with our guide, Mohammed, was incredible. He was amazing, and I wish we could have had him for the entire trip. His knowledge and warmth really made our experience in Marrakech special. I would highly recommend him to anyone visiting the city.

The private cooking class with Narwa in Marrakech was absolutely amazing. We made a chicken tagine and some salads, and it was delicious. Narwa was an excellent teacher, and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Marrakech!

Beautiful location and well appointed rooms. The noise from rooms above with moving furniture/chairs was very disturbing and annoying. I would not stay on a lower floor again. Only top floor . Other than that it’s a great hotel, breakfast was great, location great and views were amazing!

Having the two bedroom apartment was great for the amount of time we were in Palermo. Lots of stairs!! The hotel staff were so incredibly kind and helpful. It’s a great location but due to its good location it is loud. Overall we loved it!!

Such a great day and way to experience the area. Enjoyed the small group and meeting travelers from around the world!

Well worth the walk and time spent strolling with Simone. He was awesome and it was a joy to talk with him and learn the history of the area we stayed in. His twist at the end with a gin tasting was perfect!!!

It was a production - Las Vegas show I cannot understand. We thought it would be a more retro show - but I guess they have to compete with everybody else and offer something spectacular. Hundred costume changes - good feats of strength (contortionist freaked us out!)

Did not do this - but went to Musee des Artes et Metiers instead. Very cool museum dedicated to vintage science and technology - as only the French can do it. Beautiful housing and displays.

As I said in the summary review - campy and touristy - but you should do it. The the lit bridges and buildings were beautiful from the water. Also getting a peek at the party and private boats along the water - seeing how the Monied party in Paris. Singer was great, food very good, service passable. But you do this for the sightseeing at night.

Wasn't worth the effort to get there. Lots of transient vendors selling the same old junk - not sure anybody was buying. Found the brick and mortar antique shops in the area - nice stuff - but no deals.

Interesting area and shops. Also an amazing restaurant (again with the duck burger.)

Beautiful facility and museum. Museum has great explanations of how they acquired the holdings - some of which are extremely rare. A quite way to spend an few hours before lunch.

Our guide from Avignon - Emile - was very pleasant, and the bird sanctuary was very interesting - but there was a lot of driving involved. The jeep tour from Aigues-Mortes was OK - but it is primarily ag land - we see a lot of that at home! The city (Aigues-Mortes) is completely walled and in good shape. Neat town.

We did learn much about wine in the Rhone river valley - ChatduPape being the star. Both houses different approach to the same product. Interesting

Sunday afternoon - cra cra. People everywhere. Monday morning - pleasant walk about till around 11:00 when the buses started arriving.

Pont du Gard - amazing. Saint Remy - meh Les Baux - had a nice Aperol spritz -

A beautiful and vibrant valley in rural France - with may hilltop villages. E-bikes were the way to go.

Mostly a drive to a seaside village - but the boat trip is a must if you go.

This was our favorite guide - Stephane. Really provided us a great introduction to Paris and French food and French culture. Well thought out organization of the tour, and we were taken to some seriously legit food purveyors (candies, pastries, bread, cheese, and meats.) Additionally - we've been on food tours before where the guide promises to send all the information on where we went and what we ate - Stefane followed through and actually did it.

Good tour - lots of time in the car driving to Reims and back to Paris. But tour guide did take us to two distinctly different champagne houses in the area: one producing 15000 bottles/year - and one 10000 bottle a DAY. If you like champagne both places are worth seeing. Our guide Enzo shared his Paris dining guide (Google Map) and this is how I found out about duck burgers!

Really a lovely museum with some really impressive works of art. But be ready for a hundred Instagram posers looking for that perfect shot in front of the Monet. It gets annoying - try to find a really really slow day to go!

The location is near the center of Ginza so lots of convenient shopping/dining.

This hotel is convenient to the Hommachi train station and is centrally located for all of your Osaka activities. We had a Superior Double Room and the accommodations are cozy but comfortable.

I wish we could have stayed here longer. Our room was spectacular, with a private onsen on our balcony, overlooking Hell Valley and the beautiful color-changing foliage! The Premium Twin room was spacious, the amenities were first-class and the Kaiseki dinner and set breakfast were out of this world.

We had a Deluxe King room which had a little sitting space. The team at this property was so welcoming and helpful. We took advantage of the in-room massages with Naomi and she did an outstanding job with relaxing us after a long day of sightseeing. Their Sugi Spa is beautifully designed. There is a dry sauna and a cold plunge, which was extra enjoyable to unwind with.

This property is centrally located with lots to do in the area and easy to get to the train station. Make sure to take time to enjoy the beautiful onsen! There's a nice quiet space next to the onsen that overlooks the city. The breakfast buffet was well done as well.

We had a great time experiencing the local foods with Hide!

We went to see a couple of the shows at Date Jidaimura, the Samurai show along with a Geisha show. Both were interesting and the staff did a nice job. Jenny helped capture some nice photos of us and took us to the foot bath near Hell Valley.

We really enjoyed seeing the Pond and Falls. We happened to catch it on a good day when the sun was out but I understand that the color changes with the weather so you may want to be mindful of that.

Although the weather was a bit rainy and cold, it was still beautiful!

We had a personalized experience, making a key chain as well as a tray and the overall experience was fun and we came away with a couple of useful souvenirs. It would have been nice to know the relevance of the leather to Otaru.

We loved learning more about Sapporo with Jenny! We were able to see many different sights and Jenny was helpful and made it a fun experience!

Cool art. Art deco
