Kimkim Trip Reviews

We had a wonderful trip to Costa Rica. Serendipity Adventures, the local tour company we worked was, did a fantastic job planning a once-in-a-lifetime vacation. We highly recommend their services! Everything was so seamless and ran so smoothly. We would love to visit Costa Rica again and would love to use their services.

I have used Kimkim twice now. The first time was for a two-week trip to the Philippines about six months ago, and everything was so wonderful that when I decided to take my two daughters to Bali before one headed off to law school and the other started college, I didn’t hesitate to book through Kimkim again.

For this trip, I wanted something a little different. We were looking for eco-conscious luxury, beautiful nature, authentic cultural experiences, and places that felt a little off the beaten path. One thing I especially appreciated during my first Kimkim experience was being paired with a local travel specialist who really understood the destination and culture. I asked whether I could receive a quote from a different specialist this time, but was told I couldn’t. I decided to move forward anyway even though I would have liked to have shopped agencies. (Since Kim Kim is basically a matchmaker site between local agencies and the consumer of travel).

The itinerary was pretty basic and the activities were primarily “self guided”. The trip was definitely highly marked up.

The planning process was fine, and after a few itinerary adjustments we were on our way from the San Francisco Bay Area to Bali.

The biggest disappointment was the level of communication from our travel specialist. We were only checked in on once after arriving, and during that message she didn’t even remember my name. It lacked the warmth, attentiveness, and thoughtful personal touches that I experienced on my previous Kimkim trip and that friends have also described. It certainly didn’t ruin our vacation, but it was noticeably different from the level of service I had come to expect.

Now for the part that made this trip absolutely unforgettable:
Our driver, Made (pronounced “Mah-Dee”), was extraordinary. I was initially told that he was “just a driver” and that a guide would cost extra. In reality, Made became one of the biggest highlights of our entire vacation.

He consistently went far above and beyond what anyone could reasonably expect. He was incredibly knowledgeable about Balinese culture, history, religion, traditions, food, and daily life. He answered every question we had with patience and enthusiasm, made wonderful recommendations that improved our itinerary, and was always thinking several steps ahead to make our days smoother and more enjoyable.

As three women traveling together, we always felt completely safe in his care. He was professional, respectful, kind, punctual, and genuinely invested in making sure we had the best possible experience. By the end of two weeks, he felt more like a trusted friend than simply our driver. If Kimkim has employees who represent the very best of what travel should be, Made is one of them. He deserves tremendous recognition.

The accommodations were also outstanding. Every hotel was an eco-luxury retreat, beautifully designed, surrounded by nature, and unique in its own way. The prices were very reasonable for travelers looking for this sort of resort . The markup from kimkim was huge and next time I will book these hotels myself and saved a lot of money. I never saw an itemized cost breakdown but did the math and I could have spent 1/2 the price booking myself. Each location had its own personality, yet all maintained the same high standard of comfort and hospitality that was standard for the areas where we stayed.

Even with my disappointment regarding communication from our travel specialist, this was still probably the best trip of my life. Bali is magical, and Kimkim put together an itinerary that allowed us to experience its beauty in a meaningful way. If I could make one suggestion, it would be to ensure every traveler receives the same level of personal attention during the planning process that Kimkim has built its reputation on.

And if you’re lucky enough to have Made as your driver, know that you’re in exceptional hands. He was worth his weight in gold and was one of the biggest reasons this became a trip my daughters and I will remember for the rest of our lives.

We spent our last three nights in Bali here. It was the perfect place to end the best vacation EVER. The staff were so attentive and thoughtful and kind. We attended their “BBQ by the river” which is a must! The restaurant was great. Breakfast was lovely every morning. The room was perfect for me and my two adult daughters. We had such a great time here. The staff really made it special . The views were priceless .

We had a wonderful stay at Elevate by Hanging Gardens Munduk. The property is beautiful, and the views of the mountains and surrounding greenery were absolutely breathtaking. It was such a peaceful place to relax and unwind. The staff were kind, welcoming, and attentive, and our villa was comfortable, thoughtfully designed, and felt like a special place to stay. As a vegan, I was pleasantly surprised to find several great vegan options on the menu, which made dining easy and enjoyable. The cooler weather was a nice change, and we really enjoyed spending a few days in this part of Bali. It felt like a wonderful place to slow down and take in the scenery. We would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a beautiful, relaxing stay surrounded by nature, and we’d love to return someday

I planned & booked an international trip with Jessica, She made planning & booking of my trip to Seoul stress - less. What I like most about the planning process was that she listened to what I was looking for and what was important to me and just did exactly that. She guided me in the planning without pressure of doing what "most people do".... From day 1, she was interested in my goals of the trip which was - not bouncing from one place to the next and not going one day after another without any rest. Days were flexible where if I wanted a free day, I could have a free day. Her responses were prompt and if they weren't she assured when she would respond.

Here’s a warm, detailed review that reflects how enthusiastic you’ve been about your Norway trip:

Alex was absolutely fantastic to work with from start to finish. He listened to what we wanted, asked thoughtful questions, and created an itinerary that was even better than we imagined. Every destination felt intentionally chosen, and the pace was perfect. We were able to experience Norway’s incredible scenery while still having time to relax and explore on our own.

The hotels were excellent, transportation was seamless, and all of the logistics were handled so well that we could simply enjoy the trip. It was obvious that Alex knew the country and took great care in planning every detail.

What impressed us most was how personalized the experience felt. We never felt like we were following a generic itinerary. Instead, it felt like a trip designed specifically for us, and it showed in every stop along the way.

This was truly one of the best vacations we’ve ever taken. In fact, we enjoyed it so much that we’re already working with Alex to plan another trip to Norway. There really isn’t a better endorsement than becoming a repeat customer before we’ve even stopped talking about the first trip.

Thank you, Alex, for helping us create memories we’ll treasure for a lifetime. We can’t wait to see what you plan for us next!

If you are planning a trip to Croatia, I enthusiastically recommend local Croatian travel agent Roberto (Robi) Pincevic. We traveled with family members ranging from age 25 to 88, and Robi listened to what we liked to do and suggested great activities and restaurants. His communication was excellent throughout planning and travel. While we were in Croatia, he checked in with us every day to see how things were going. When our flight to Rome was canceled at 6:30pm and we risked missing our niece's wedding, Robi tapped his network and solved the problem: two drivers to tag-team the 3.5 hour drive to our new flight, a hotel room on short notice, and transport from the hotel to the new airport. Every piece fell into place, and Robi saved the day.

Nikola was a fantastic travel agent! We had an amazing trip to Croatia and loved the country. It was a fabulous experience, and Nikola was always available and extremely helpful. He was knowledgeable, kind and pleasant and recommended fantastic hotels, restaurants and excursions. We had no problems whatsoever!
Highly recommend!!! We loved it Thank you!

Christina did an excellent job on planning our itinerary! She listened to us well and what we hoped to see in Norway. We started in Bergen, went to Balestrand, Aurland and ended in Oslo. We did a city tour in Bergen which gave us a good idea of what the Norway culture and its people were like. we ate at great restaurants suggested b y Christina and many other fun things.
We took a boat through the beautiful fjords to get to Balestrand. Balestrand was magical...like a picture perfect town from another time or story book. While here, we did an Apple Cider tour and tasting (soo good), rented cars for a day to drive to the waterfall in Felgefossen and after hiking the waterfall sat at a quaint adjacent cafe called Feigesagi where we tried brown cheese and waffles! We went on a guided boat tour and fishing with a very animated tour guide named Tor! Loved this...it was a great day!
Took another boat to Aurland. In Aurland we found another beautiful magical town! We did a sauna and cold plunge one day (highly recommend), had excellent dinners at the hotel we stayed at The Hotel Aurlandsfjord (by the way we loved all the hotels we stayed at). We had a guided Waterfall hike and view of Segastein, a fjord cruise and a trip to Viking Valley. It was all so awesome and we learned a lot about Norway, it's people and culture.
We then took a train (what a fun experience) to Oslo. We had a wonderful guided tour of Oslo with a guide who even sang us a Norwegian song (she has an incredible voice!). And then we used the rest of our time in Oslo to explore and dine on our own.
We loved our trip to Norway and are so grateful for all of the things Christina arranged for us! We are recommending this trip to all of our friends and family!

Loved the hotels we had in Florence and Sorrento. Numa in Rome was not a great experience. My bed had ants in it. The rooms were tiny. I lived the You Know Boat tour of the Amalfi coast in the last day. I was frustrated with our trains between cities because there was a know issue with delays, and our trains reservations could have been changed to avoid it, but our travel agent did not so that. It took us 5.5 hours to get from Florence to Naples instead of 3.

We had a wonderful vacation! Caroline was very patient and helpful while planning. She was available all through the trip for questions and followed through immediately with a response. In one instance, Caroline went out of her way to help even though she had personal commitments. Her help was truly appreciated.
Some of the highlights was a hike in the Chamonix area, the bike ride in Lauterbrunnen and Junfraujoch. The views and experiences we had will stay with us for a long time.
The only feedback we have is, while traveling in Switzerland is very easy on the country’s public transportation, in some cities, it was quite a few changes of modes of transport. The notes/daily itinerary was a little confusing.
Aside from that, we had a memorable holiday in a beautiful country.

Kimkim did a wonderful job planning our family trip to Greece. During the early stages, Erica talked with me at length about what kind of trip we were looking for and what types of activities we'd be interested in (understanding and taking into account that we were not all interested in the same things!). She chose two Greek islands (Naxos and Milos) that were less touristy and more authentic but still offered both cultural/historical and more active/outdoorsy activities and organized all our hotels and transfers to make the experience seamless. The kimkim team was available during the trip to answer any questions and handle hiccups (which only occurred once!). I would highly recommend this booking agency!

This was the first time I have ever had the assistance of a travel agent/company planning a trip-- but I would highly recommend. Minimizing the planning time was a real goal at this busy moment in life and allowed us to maximize the time doing fun stuff/relaxing on our trip and minimized the downtime! Having the transfers coordinated in advance made it feel luxurious. We had amazing guides (Anghela for a Percy Jackson tour in Athens was amazing--- and Stratos for kayaking to Poseidons temple and George for hiking/natural history in Kourtaliotiko gorge in Crete). We all loved the Olympic stadium tour and practicing the olympic events. The itinerary was a fabulous mix of historical tours and adventure activities and relaxation. It worked great for our 3 generation family!

We had a wonderful experience covering much of western and southern Iceland over 12 days. Guðmundur (Gummi) was responsive and provided lots of thoughtful feedback as we fine-tuned our itinerary before booking.

We had the challenge of booking the trip only about 6 months in advance, wanting to see a lot different natural and cultural attractions, and at the same time managing the abilities and interests of 3 generations of travelers. Gummi took those constraints and laid out an itinerary that managed to address all our interests, found fun and comfortable accommodations in the right locations, and kept us at a manageable pace where we could move every 2 or 3 days. The food recommendations were great and often corroborated by a foodie acquaintance who splits time in Reykjavik. Out of the entire agenda, we only opted not to do 2 optional stops, and one of those was due to the worst day of weather which prevented safe hiking in Highlands.

During the trip, Gummi provided quick responses when we needed some real-time feedback or advice on some small issues. I am confident that had we run into major problems, he would have solved them for us.

We have recommended kimkim to friends, who are since booked a trip to Iceland, and would use it again ourselves. I would recommend anyone work with Gummi. Thank you!

Our kids gave the trip a 9.5/10 which is a huge win. This was our first time using a travel service and Kimkim and our overall experience was fantastic. Alvaro helped us plan the initial logistics and create an itinerary that covered a lot of ground in Ecuador. Sebastian was super helpful at coordinating all the logistics on the ground and even came to meet us in Quito. We were so lucky to have Christian as an incredible tour guide for the first week. He felt like part of the family and even watched World Cup games with us. He has an incredibly kind heart and is a pleasure to be around and really cared for every detail of the trip. He is also a foodie and took us to some delicious meals and always had great recommendations. He did great with our teens as well. Lastly, he has an encyclopedic knowledge of birds, flora and fauna and I wish we had done the cloud forest or the jungle with him but he still managed to share a ton of info. Our itinerary was aggressive from a driving/distance traveling standpoint and we could not have done it without the input of our guides/team. We started in Quito, went to Mitad del Mundo then Cotopaxi, Quilotoa, before heading to Baños for a few days (so fun!) then drove down to Cuenca where we sadly said goodbye to Christian. Genaro took over guiding duties and he was delightful as well- very knowledgeable, interesting, kind and did a great job. We especially loved our Cajas hike with him and were very grateful he was the driver in the descent to Guayaquil! Finally, Carolina helped Sebastian with the arrangements in the Galapagos and all of our guides helped make transit easy. We stayed on Santa Cruz for a few nights but Isabela stole our hearts! Hotel Abermarle was perfect.
Overall, we had a great experience and I would recommend using Kimkim for an Ecuadorian adventure. Thank you Alvaro, Sebastian and all involved!

This was my first time using KimKim and I am impressed by how customizable and personal my experience was. After I got my first itinerary from Roy, I responded with the parts I liked and didn’t like and Roy just kept adjusting until the itinerary for a week in Norway was ideal for me and my sister. I was really appreciative when after the initial trip’s estimate was more expensive than I could afford, accommodations were changed so that we didn’t have to cut any of our activities. And the accommodations we ended up with were fantastic! I would definitely use kimkim again.

Nothing but great things to day about the KimKim experience. Erica helped us curate a full 11 day Italy honeymoon plan and had lots of suggestions and advice for us as we worked through some iterative trip options to figure out what we wanted to experience. The excursions she booked for us were lots of fun and the best part was the private car transfers from every hotel, day trip, airport, etc. Never had to touch a steering wheel once. It really felt like a 5 star experience (both the booking process and the trip itself) and made our honeymoon stress free and simple. Everything just "worked".
