Kimkim Trip Reviews

Leny and her team were extremely responsive and always available for anything that came up during our trip. They made sure that we had everything we needed and followed up on any last minute changes that had to be made to the arrangements. Overall, they did a great job and we had a wonderful experience in Japan.

Very knowledgeable! Well planned out for our style of vacation. Always answered all of our questions very quick. I would definitely book with Kim Kim again.

A must for an Authentic Greek Experience

We just returned from an incredible 12-night adventure through Morocco, and it’s hard to put into words how truly special this trip was. From the bustling cities to the serene desert landscapes, every stop—Rabat, Chefchaouen, Fez, Marrakech, Merzouga and the Sahara, Essaouira, and the Dades Valley—offered something unique and unforgettable.

One of the highlights was staying in a series of beautiful Riads nestled within the Medinas of each city. These accommodations gave us a deeply authentic experience—waking up to traditional Moroccan breakfasts, hearing the distant call to prayer, and soaking in the architecture and charm that can only be found behind the doors of a Riad.

The guided tours in Fez, Marrakech, and Essaouira were outstanding. Our guides—Sharef, Said, and Said—were each exceptional in their own way. They combined deep cultural and historical knowledge with local expertise, giving us access to hidden corners, untold stories, and a fuller appreciation of each city's heartbeat. We left every tour feeling enlightened, entertained, and even more in love with Morocco.

But the true star of our journey was our driver, Hamza. From the moment he picked us up, Hamza became more than just our driver—he became our friend, our advisor, and in many ways, the soul of the trip. His calm presence, excellent driving, and thoughtfulness elevated the entire experience. He helped us with restaurant recommendations, guided us in unfamiliar places, and always made us feel safe and cared for. We were lucky to have him with us every step of the way.

We even shared several meals with Hamza—our way of showing appreciation, but also because we genuinely enjoyed his company. He told us about his life, his family, and what it’s like to live in modern Morocco. His easy rapport and warm personality especially clicked with our spirited Spanish matriarch, who kept the group laughing—and quickly became close friends with Hamza herself.

This trip could have gone very differently had we not all connected the way we did, but Hamza made it effortless. His presence was not just helpful—it was meaningful. We left Morocco with a suitcase full of souvenirs and a heart full of gratitude for him. We’ll absolutely be staying in touch.

Morocco captured our imaginations, delighted our senses, and opened our hearts. This journey was so much more than sightseeing—it was an immersion into history, culture, friendship, and beauty. We’ll be talking about this one for a long time.

This was our first time using KimKim. In fact, it was the first time we had used any travel planning agency. There were times in the planning process that I felt a bit anxious there I gave the planning and booking experience only 4 stars. That said, the itinerary and arrangements that Zehra put together for us far exceeded our expectations! I had originally told Zehra that we wanted to see Troy, Pergamum, Ephesus, and Cappadocia. I later added Pamukkale to that list. Zehra expanded the trip to include Gallipoli, Aphrodiaias, Hierapolis, and Konya to that list. We knew of Gallipoli but the last 3 were places we had never even heard of and all turned out to be fascinating and memorable.
The guides Zehra hired were fabulous. Okan made the battle sites of the Gallipoli Peninsula come alive. We finished that day with an understanding of the importance of the geography of that peninsula and the important role it played in 20th century Turkish history. Okan also guided us patiently and carefully through the ruins of ancient Troy and Pergamum. He went beyond his role of tour guide by recommending an excellent fish restaurant for dinner and arranging a late lunch stop in Çanakkale so we could eat gözleme.
Senem gave us a very good understanding of the importance of Ephesus and took us through the excavation of the “mansions “ near the agora that are now open to the public at a small additional fee.
Rafet is a fabulous story teller! He entranced us with his telling of the Greek myths and their connections to the ancient cities of Aphrodisias and Hierapolis. He also found us good local eateries for lunch!
Gökhan gave us very clear explanations about the geology of Cappadocia and also about the role that the early Christians played in that area. He also steered us expertly through the crush of tourists in the Underground City.
Our itinerary was a private 11 day road trip with a car and driver. Okan, Rafet and Gökhan were each with us for more than one day and all 3 were also very good traveling companions on the drives from one site to another.
KimKim and Zehra truly put together a remarkable trip for us.

Amazing trip organized to Norway by KimKim. Especially Kadri who did an amazing job coordinating the trip. Everything was excellent (locations, hotels chosen, etc). Communication was great.

The Alesund area or the Romsdal region is one of the most beautiful areas in the world. The hiking, biking, sightseeing is like no other. Very easy to drive. Ferry system is seamless. The safest region I have visited in the world. Friendliest people. Visited in early summer with very little rain and 18 hours of sunlight. Temperature averages around 50 degrees which is fine for activities.

Very very highly recommended to schedule trip with KimKim to the Romsdal region.

We had the most amazing trip to Africa , Zimbabwe and Botswana because of the expertise , care and knowledge from Anna Marie. From the beginning of our communications she understood our goals , budget and desires and arranged for us the perfect trip .
tour guide , driver and transfer was on time , friendly and knowledgeable . All the hotels and lodges exceeded our expectations and were outstanding .
Anna Marie arranged a special wine tasting for us and then joined us which was a highlight to meet her after communicating for over 6 months . She is amazing and continued to check in with me during the 11 day trip to ensure everything went perfectly ( which it did)
We also really enjoyed Rochelle our guide for the wine tasting day who managed to fit in for us. 4 special wineries and lunch on a very rainy day .
We saw the Big 5 at our first lodge in Sabi Sands Umkumbe Safari Lodge including 3 leopards many rhinos , lioness , elephant and buffalo herd right outside our room on the river . In Chobe at Ngoma Lodge the abundance of animals we saw
herds of buffalo ,giraffe ,zebra , hippos, wild dogs , cheetah , impalas, kudos , elephants and more elephants and many others was astounding and breathtaking watching them interact .
We will return to South Africa . The people are so nice , kind and special .
My husband and I agree our favorite trip ever and we look forward to planning our next trip with Kim Kim.
Thank you Anna-Marie !

They listened, asked great questions, and developed a great iternery for the week in two places. There were no surprises and we ended up the perfect balanced low-key trip with kids.

My favorite part...they communicated early and often. I would highly recommend Marisa and her team.

Katie was excellent in recommending where to go - we enjoyed the locations and the hotel picks and would recommend working with her.

We had a terrific time during our 9 day tour of Morocco. Our driver/guide Hicham was fantastic. He is an exeptional driver. He knows all the roads very well and especially knows where the hidden policeman are! He was always on time and extremely knowledgeable about all of the places we visited. We very much enjoyed visiting all the cities and sites on the tour. Plus Hicham took us to several small villages where we got a very intimate view of everyday Moroccan life. That was real treat not listed in the itinerary. We liked all the Riad accomodations during the tour especially our stay with Michelle at the Kasbah Tiziri. All of the local guides were fantastic especially in Marrakech and Fatima in Ait Ben Haddou. Overall we could not be happier with this tour. We came for the sights but left with an extreme appreciation for the warm and welcoming nature of the Moroccan people.

Riad Farouzi Fes

Fes

I stayed at Riad Farouzi Fes, and it was a pleasant experience despite a minor design flaw that caused me to hit my head on a shelf in the bathroom (I'm almost 6'4). The staff was absolutely amazing, especially a lovely gentleman who wrote our names in Arabic and suggested an outstanding restaurant for dinner. The kindness and hospitality of the staff made the stay a memorable one.

We stayed at Sahara Stars Luxury Camp and found it to be quite alright. I found it interesting that the camp isn't in the middle of the desert but rather on its edge for safety reasons.

During our stay at Riad La Croix Berbère Luxe in Marrakesh, we faced an inconvenient issue of having no water from mid-afternoon until the next morning.

Although it was a minor inconvenience, it was not entirely unexpected in an older area, and overall, our stay was decent.

Marrakesh

The food tour in Marrakech was a highlight of our trip! Our guide was outstanding and took us to incredible places. Each stop was full of delicious food, and the experience was enhanced by the guide’s knowledge and enthusiasm.

Our trip to Portugal and Spain was excellent. All of the arrangements were perfectly done by Raquel and her team. They were extremely accommodating to our needs and wants and everything in the trip went flawlessly. Every driver pick up was perfectly on time. All of the drivers had a great personality and talked with us the entire time. We actually became friends with Ze (I think his full name is Jose but he said to call him Ze) He is a musician as I am and we share videos now of each other performing. He was extremely friendly. In addition Jesus another driver from Sevilla to Granada was equally as good. So friendly, knowledgable and went out of his way to be accommodating for us. Both of these people should get 5 stars plus and get bonuses. That being said we tipped everyone we encountered very well.

For the tour guides, they were also excellent and tipped well. Ones that stood out were Feliz at the hike to the castle in Lisbon. He was super friendly, knowledgeable, and a great person to be around. All of the rest of the guides were amazing fun and just great people. There are too many to name, however I am going to name one more that has to be the nicest person we encountered. His name was Paulo and he was the guide to Nazare. The strangest part is that I never met him in person. I unfortunately along with my wife got sick that day and could not go on the tour. He did take our friends Lisa and Mike though. That being said he was so concerned with our health, that he offered to take us to the hospital, when we refused he went to the pharmacy got us some medicine and brought it to the hotel. He continued to call us through the day to make sure we were ok. He was a true hero on my book. The medicine he got us made us better so we could go on the next days tours.

All of the hotels, tours, rides were excellent. Thanks KIM KIM tours you were amazing.

Our university send a mixed group of 19 people to Greece, including students, faculty, parents and staff. We spent four days in Athens and three days in Santorini. Overall, the feedback from the group on the itinerary and activities has been fantastic.
In Athens, we took a guided tour of the Parthenon and Acropolis museum, a food tour, and a day trip to Delphi. In Santorini we took a guided tour of the island and a Catamaran tour of the caldera. To a one the guides were professional, informative, responsive to questions, and enthusiastic about working with our group. Our group appreciated the VARIETY of activities offered.
Chris and the KimKim team made the logistics easy and smooth. They organized transportation to and from the airport, a high-speed ferry transfer from Athens to Santorini, and our flight back. It was easy to get our tickets and our transports showed up on time.
As a trip leader, I was a VERY appreciative of the chance to let a professional organize the logistics, and Chris spoke with me on the phone several times during the brainstorming phase to learn about our group and make suggestions about what kinds of activities we would enjoy.
Overall, I had a great experience working with Chris and the KimKim team. I will definitely use them for travel planning in the future!

Guðmundur "Gummi" Óli Pálmason was so helpful in planning our last minute visit. He readjusted the itinerary a few times to meet our needs and wants, and gave us some very valuable insider tips for each activity, location and lodging. We thoroughly enjoyed our first trip to Iceland and can’t wait to return. We can’t thank Gummi and the Kim Kim team enough for helping make this trip unforgettable and fun for the whole family!

This was our second trip to Namibia, organized by Lucy, and as always, a beautiful experience. This time was a family adventure that will last forever in our minds.
The lodges that she advised were wonderful, well located, excellent food and kind staff. The rental car was comfortable, and the agency that received us at the beginning and end of the trip were very friendly and helpful.

Overall, we had a great trip touring Morocco. Our driver was extremely friendly and engaging-SAMIR GEMMAOUI. Thanks to him we were able to go to the most beautiful spots in Morocco.

I highly recommend Kimkim as they are very well organised , reliable and have a good network on the ground!

We will certainly use them again.

Sebastian was easy to work with and prompt to respond to questions and requests. He set up a good Paris and Alsace region itinerary for us.
While we thoroughly enjoyed Paris- we did not like the Paris hotel at all. Although the staff at the hotel were kind, the amenities, location, bed, pillows and breakfast were not to our standards. The promise of a one day turn around laundry service according to the laundry brochure in our room ended up not being true. A lot of noisy people congregated most nights in the ally outside our room. I would dare to say this is even a 3 star hotel.
The hotel in Strasbourg was great. The staff went above and beyond in accommodating us. The Alsace villages tour was good and the pastry cooking class was top notch. The only feedback I would give regarding Strasbourg is that 4 nights is one too many.
Overall, I would give the entire trip 4/5 stars, but working with Sebastian was 5/5.

We had the absolute pleasure of spending 10 days exploring Morocco with Samir Gemmaoui as our tour guide and driver, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment our trip began, Samir was professional, incredibly polite, and exceptionally knowledgeable about every region we visited.

Throughout the journey, he was always accommodating—no matter what changes we made to our schedule, he adjusted with ease and grace. His communication was clear and consistent from beginning to end, which made us feel comfortable and well taken care of at all times.

Samir went above and beyond to ensure our family had a memorable experience in Morocco. Whether we were in the cities, the desert, or the mountains, he shared insights that enriched every part of our journey. We truly appreciated his warmth, reliability, and the pride he takes in his work.

Highly recommended to anyone looking for an excellent guide and driver in Morocco. Thank you, Samir!

We absolutely loved our time in greece. The itinerary was a balance of exploring the town of the islands and also the unique pats. The recommendations also came in a lot of handy.
Our accommodations were fantastic throughout, but we especially want to highlight Anteliz Suites — it was truly a standout. Great service and a perfect spot to relax and soak in the beauty of Santorini.
I'm really glad we did not have to worry about planning the activities and the hotels, as that saved us a lot of time. The transportation also being almost fully taken care of was great — it made the whole experience so much smoother and more relaxing.

If we had the chance to do it again, we would probably start the trip in Athens or potentially skip it altogether, as the islands captured our hearts more. Santorini, in particular, was absolutely breathtaking — we only wish we had spent more time there.

Thank you to kimkim for helping us plan such a memorable trip!
