Kimkim Trip Reviews

Andrea in São Paulo, Diana in Foz do Iguazu and Patricia in Rio. All the 3 of them with the drivers did an excellent job. They did their job above and beyond. I can recommend them to anybody especially to my family and friends. The entire trip was amazing. My hats off to Renata who did a wonderful planning, coordinating in smooth fashion. Thank you KimKim team!

Dear Kim Kim. Thank you for Emanuela. I have traveled to many countries and iceland has put all doubt to rest on which was my most memorable. From the first phone call with her to all of her updates and check ins during my trip I could not have had a BETTER experience. Every detail was meticulous. Her recommendations where to go and what to see were spot on. If I had a question before and during this trip to heaven she handled it with precision,immediately and well informed knowledge. Every mile of this country was awe inspiring. Everything was gorgeous and immense. The sheer beauty was breathtaking and spiritual. I told her I will definitely be returning and was interested in living there as a commercial fisherman. Sure enough, Emanuela sent me all the information to start investigating a possible future there. The residents are all first class ,completely polite and helpful, along with a gratitude towards life I've never experienced anywhere. The entire country is the cleanest place I've ever seen.
Thank you From the bottom of my heart Emanuela. I promise you will be hearing from me again for my return in April and I've already shared your name and the company with everyone I met and will do so with my friends here in America.

The trip was planned amazingly. The guides and personal drivers were so informative and friendly. I enjoyed every tour we attended. Melanie was amazing at helping us to plan our trip to our specifications. Thank you for all your help in planning our dream trip to Italy with our father.

KimKim is awesome!
Margaux is awesome!

This was my first experience with KimKim and Margaux. Will certainly not be my last. Definitely a “white glove” approach to travel service. So much so that I’m already thinking about how KimKim can help me with next year’s vacation and I'm not quite over the jet lag of my current travels.

You will not be disappointed!

We had the perfect trip to Rome and the Amalfi coast. Luca always was prompt to answer any questions and when we couldn’t find our tour guide for one of our tours, he solved the issue. We loved the hotels, locations and the food served at the hotels. The tours were great. We especially liked Pompeii and the Path of the Gods. Mathew was so much fun and we loved the fact his family farmed the region. We really have only positive memories and stories. Thank you for a trip of a lifetime.
Warm Regards,

Prado museum in Madrid (Stephanie was excellent guide); Tapas tour in Madrid (Augustine was great guide). Tour of Toledo (super guide - Chavi!).

In Barcelona, before I was sick, on our own we toured Casa Batllo. A wonderful place architected by Antonio Guadi. I recommend you add it to your list for future customers!! That's all I attended due to illness. Patty should be able to tell you about the rest of the tours.

Hotels were all excellent wit very helpful staffs. Drivers, whether KimKim supplied or taxis we hired worked out but most were OT bilingual.

I recommend avoiding Madrid train station unless the customer speaks Spanish! Very difficult to navigate. Barcelona station not a problem. High speed trains are really cool; as a US citizen I am jealous!

One more topic: The food. Excellent EVERYWHERE we ate.

She planned every detail of our trip. Transport drivers, train tickets, airport transportation etc. I enjoyed all of the day trip guides and the cooking class was my favorite!

Jordan is fantastic! We spent time in Amman, Petra, wadi rum and Dead Sea seeing all the top attractions. Accomodation selections were excellent, exactly what we were after. Ahmed planned the trip well however included a few too many stops, our driver Wasef was more than happy to adjust to our needs and give us a little more down time. Wasef was an excellent driver, very good English and always there to help, friendly and looked after us very well, taking us to some excellent local restaurants for lunches! And great shopping spots!! He knew people everywhere! Rami was a great help at the airport on arrival and departure, it was greatly appreciated!! Amina was very helpful finalising the tour and ensuring we had all the required information. We also had tour guides in Jerash and Petra which were very good, friendly, good English and great knowledge. All around a great trip

The trip was very well organized on short notice. I enjoyed the nature and the culture part of the trip. I would highly recommend it to those who would like a little adventure or relax and enjoy nature and old towns, like Antigua.

I had a wonderful time engaging with Ashley. She helped make my trip memorable, not only during the planning stages but also while I was on the trip. Incredibly responsive, informative, and helpful, Ashley made sure my trip went smoothly day to day. She provided me with great ideas on what to do in the moment while I was on my trip that helped make it more unique and also made it feel like I had a local friend to consult with. I’d absolutely repeat my experience working with Ashley.

Me and my husband just came back from our trip in Chile and it was a very satisfying trip. Chile is a very diverse country that everybody needs to add it to their bucket list. Our 10-day sojourn was just a glimpse of what the country has to offer.
This was all made possible when we contacted Tamer who was instrumental in making this happen. Tamer was very patient with us during the planning. He gave us a few tour packages to choose from and he was very responsive. He basically answered all our questions in the quickest time possible.
Angel, who was our first contact during our Santiago stay was awesome !!! He is very professional and yet very personable. He treated us like we were family during our stay. Angel and his entire team were always reaching out to us and asking how we are doing. Very responsive, very punctual and just very comforting to know that he has our back. I like the fact that they reach out to us and gives us updates on our daily itinerary.
Our tour in San Pedro de Atacama and Patagonia were just outstanding.
We've been to quite a few countries and always had no trouble with our tour packages but in Chile- they seem to go above and beyond.
After all our tours-our guides always have a spread of food and drinks which is really something that you can look forward to.
Chilean people are very nice and welcoming.. We've never encountered any person who hasn't smiled or helped us out in every way possible.
So many places to go and explore but we don't mind coming back to Chile. There's so much this country has to offer that we have barely scratched the surface.

The location itself was great. The bellboy to the front desk employees were really attentive. What it lacks is an update to their rooms. Seems very dated. The bathroom needs to be fixed. It is functioning but it just doesn't look inviting at all. It needs caulking. Food was okay. Nothing fancy.

Too bad we only stayed here overnight. The restaurant was awesome. This hotel is an example of having a clean, inviting and comfortable without being expensive. They made use of what's native to the area and re-used vintage treasure finds to keep this place authentic. It is a small hotel since this used to be a house that's almost a century old but i just like the vibe. The only downside is the fact that there is no elevator which makes carrying your luggage harder not only for us guests but also for the staff that carries them.

In Mallorca in was nestled in a nice small bay that was simply beautiful. Highly recommend Marina.

I'm sure I couldn't have done this trip without the help of Caterina and the other guides. There are certain things I would have done differently, however had I known, and which might be useful for other travellers in the situation of pushing a wheelchair. We almost didn't go to Venice but it was actually much easier in Venice than Florence to get around. I would not go to Florence with a wheelchair again. I would also choose and bring a wheelchair with me and not rent. The one that was rented was very small and difficult both to push and for my mom to sit in. The third thing I would do is to rent 3 double rooms and not 2 triples. We rented the triples as a money saver but it resulted in my mom being in a cot in many places which is okay for a child but not for the elderly. The car and driver were very helpful in many places but at other times we really didn't need them to sit for hours while we were in a museum or even to transport us a few blocks to the museum. It was great for driving around to viewpoints though. All of the tour guides were very flexible, helpful and knowledgeable. I also appreciated having the contact of Roberta at all times which I haven't experienced on previous KimKim trips. Svetlana in Como was relaxed and flexible which allowed us to have some time to just look around. Beatrice was indispensable for getting in and out of Venice smoothly. Alessia, in Venice made the trip for 11 year old Katie, with the costume she brought and the effort she went to to engage her. Alesia's dad even helped taking photos and walking us to a restaurant. They were both so warm and friendly. Cecelia blew our mind pushing the wheelchair around and ensuring my mom's comfort. The driver in Verona was also amazing. Both of them made our stay in Verona our favourite stop on our trip. Barbara in Milano, was super fun and also great at engaging Katie. We had the trip of a lifetime and made unforgettable memories with my mom, whose life long dream of visiting the homeland of her grandparents was finally realized.

We spent hours trying to find a workable solution for my mom. They put us in two rooms with two beds one of which had stairs inside the room and the other of which was up stairs to get to the room. There was a narrow ramp that was okay for luggage but not for a human in a wheelchair.

Trip highlight

We had an amazing 12 day trip in southern Norway, planned by Linda. She arranged all hotels, walking tours, a kayak outing, and transfers and excursions on trains and boats. Accommodations were clean and comfortable. Tour guides in Oslo and Bergen were excellent. Highlights were the Flåm rail ride and fjord cruises, although we enjoyed much of the rest of the countryside too.
Also, museum visits in Oslo and Alesund were informative and enjoyable as well.
Linda was very helpful and available as was her colleague, Tom. We had a couple of hiccups which were quickly remedied. All in all, a great experience that we highly recommend.

Our trip was absolutely amazing, exciting and surprising. Our guide/tour manager, Hicham, was gracious, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable and treated us like family. He took care of every detail, leaving us free to enjoy the experience. He was also extremely helpful when the airline lost all of my luggage, driving us to several airports in an attempt to find it, bringing me to a mall so I could purchase clothing and toiletries, and being generally reassuring. Other people on our flight had missing luggage as well, and I was grateful that I wasn't trying to deal with the situation on my own.

Hicham was a wonderful guide, putting all the sights into a historical context which increased our understanding and appreciation of the many beautiful places we went. I particularly appreciated his patience with our many questions. We honestly could not have asked for a better guide. We'll be sure to ask for him when we return!

Unfortunately the roads were less maintained than the driver and guide had expected, or seen in their previous travels, so this day ended up taking us 14 hours, getting us to our hotel in Uyuni around 10PM and limiting how much free time we had at each destination (all of about 10min at each site). As two very active, adventurous travelers we found ourselves very restless sitting in a car all day, but I'm not sure how else this could have been planned, since all the sites we wanted to see were spread out.

We spent 12 days in Greece: Athens, Naxos, and Milos. Siena did an excellent job finding accommodations and activities suited to our tastes. Lea was an invaluable resource while we were in-country, helping us make last minute changes as needed to account for the unexpected.

In Athens, the mythology tour of the Acropolis was the perfect way to kick things off. Our guide, Alex, was knowledgeable about the historical fact and fiction and he did a great job making connections to present day topics. Our day trip to Delphi was amazing as well. The private nature of the tour made for great conversation with our driver, Markos, and our guide, Johanna.

Naxos had a nice, low key vibe. We stayed at Glaronissi on Plaka beach, a family owned and operated place that was comfortable and well-maintained. We ate most of our meals at Summer Breeze because everything on the menu was delicious. It didn't hurt that the restaurant was just in front of our hotel, on the way to and from the beach. We did a sea kayaking excursion that took us along 5 miles of beautiful coastline. Our guide, David, provided a mid-morning snack that included cheese, peaches, and olives produced by his family and his neighbors.

Milos was the perfect way to end our trip. We stayed at the luxurious Artemis resort, in a room with a large patio overlooking the Aegean. What a view to wake up to each day! Our only planned activity on the island was a full day sailing tour around the entire coast. Nine hours on a catamaran isn't for everyone, but if you enjoy boating, sun, hard-to-reach beaches, great food, and stunning views, then you must spend the day with Captain George.

There are so many ways to spend two weeks in Greece, the choices can be overwhelming. Siena, Lea, and the rest of the KimKim team took all the anxiety out of the planning and supported us throughout the trip. This is the first time in literally decades of world travel that I've used an agency, and the experience was so good I can't help but wonder why it took me so long to try it. Great job, KimKim. 10/10 would do it again!

Everything was fine - we particularly enjoyed the guided bike tour of Bilbao and the guide was very good, very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The wine tour was very good, I would suggest that for future tours this is on the first day of the stay as we would have preferred to have some local knowledge from our local guide (Ardu?) who was again excellent before we did our self guided tour which we actually did on our first day.
All the hotels were good but we felt that the hotel in San Sebastián was a bit far out from the town centre, we needed a taxi to go into town and to come back.
When we were in San Sebastián there was an international film festival on, if we had known this we may have changed the order of the holiday to avoid this. Maybe go to San Sebastián first rather than last.
But all in all we had a great time and I am trying to give constructive comments to help future similar tours.

All activities and sightseeing stops were great. Hotels were all perfect for our needs. Rinolda was responsive both before and during our trip. Would recommend kimkim to others looking to go to Iceland or other locations.

One small hiccup- the rental car company, Blue, charged us a ridiculous amount for 2 very, very tiny scratches on the car likely caused by pieces of gravel that hit our car during the trip. The amount of damage caused was extremely minor (maybe 2mm in length) and looked like normal wear and tear on a rental car to us, especially because many roads in Iceland aren’t paved and are gravel roads. Blue charged us nearly $900 for it to get assessed and fixed by their mechanic, and claims they will refund us the difference. We had no choice but to pay it. It was a shocking charge at the end of an otherwise great trip. I would not use blue rental car company again.

We had the BEST time exploring Canada on our trip with KimKim! Lola, our local specialist, was the best - she worked with us to plan the itinerary we wanted with unique stops along the way. The Niagara Falls day trip with Niagara Toronto Tours was amazing - prepare to get quite wet! - and we loved taking the train between cities. The bike tour of Ottawa is a must! Quebec City was our absolute favorite - don't miss a private tour with Mike while you're there! - and we loved the Mile End Food Tour in Montreal. Working with KimKim made planning a multi-city trip in a different country so easy! Lola took care of everything, and at each stop, we knew she and her team were just a phone call away if we needed anything. She was also very responsive both during the planning process and during our trip when we had questions. I cannot recommend KimKim more highly - we will definitely use them again in the future to plan another unforgettable trip!
