Kimkim Trip Reviews

The Atacama Experience was absolutely my favorite part of the trip. We visited a farm where Gonzalo, who I wouldn't even call a guide, shared so much about the landscape, traditions, and the animals. His explanations made the desert come alive for me.

The Trekking Torres del Paine Active tour was great, however, we didn't see as much wildlife as we hoped. We probably started too late in the morning to see animals like pumas or guanacos. Also, the tour included three hikes in one day, which was quite intense. Perhaps two hikes would have been enough.

The Valley of the Moon Tour in Atacama was stunning, but I think a warning should be included about the narrow and high trail. It might be daunting for those who have a fear of heights. Despite that, we were fine and enjoyed the beauty.

Absolutely stunning. Loved everything about this hotel. Amazing location in a gorgeous old palace. We couldn't get enough of watching monkeys scale the building across from our room window. This was our last hotel of the trip and we highly recommend it. Great restaurant. Varanasi was perfect as the last stop -- top India!

This hotel was excellent for us and a departure from the heritage hotels to which we usually gravitate. Air quality in December was challenging, and we welcomed a very up-to-date hotel for its modern HVAC system. We didn't have a problem with air quality in the other hotels over the course of our trip, but it was nice to have a bit of a modern reset at this hotel. It's big, it's shiny, it has a huge breakfast buffet. Good choice.

We ended up at a different hotel (Shahpura House) for some reason. We had no issue with the change. Shahpura House was a lovely heritage hotel in a great location.

Beautiful hotel, worth taking the time to wander around. Sunrise over the lake from our room was really special. I feel like we had particularly good rooms for that (thanks, Ravi!). The restaurant patio is lakeside and stunning. We enjoyed watching the early morning bathers and swimmers while eating breakfast. Good breakfast buffet with made-to-order dosa. We had the craziest, most memorable tuk tuk ride through the narrow streets to get back to the hotel one evening. Loved it!

LOVED this hotel. Building is absolutely gorgeous. Head to the rooftop for kite flying and monkey watching -- magical. Restaurant was excellent and the staff could not have been more helpful or kind.

We arrived late at night and stayed out near the airport for convenience on the first night. This hotel worked well for that purpose. After breakfast, we headed to our historic Delhi hotel.

This was our last walkabout before catching our flight back to Delhi. It was relaxing and interesting.

A must. Defies explanation. This was one of the highlights of a trip filled with great moments.

Our guide Mohan took us to a great viewing location. Afterwards we laughed at where we would have ended up without him. The crowd at the nightly ceremony is huge. We had a perfect, comfortable bird's-eye view.

So impressive. Our guide was very knowledgeable.

The Taj Mahal was jaw-dropping. We weren't prepared for how impressive it actually is in person. You really have to see it to believe it and appreciate it.

What a lovely, kind family. This was a really interesting evening that we all enjoyed.

Beautiful! Loved all of it, especially the Mirror Palace. It must be incredible to see at night.

Quality time with elephants. Our group loved this. The elephants are well cared for and loved.

Flower market was awesome! Great city tour.

Chittorgarh was very interesting but also very crowded. Traffic was tough. We had fun and even enjoyed the traffic jam from our tuk tuk.

We were not able to do this activity due to crowds. It was busy! Our guide Gaj suggested an alternative and we were happy with the change.

This was fun. We got up and danced.

Our group of 5 stayed healthy on this trip, and we attribute that to being directed to reputable restaurants and sticking to the advice on how to eat safely as a tourist. It was really nice to be able to try some street food that we would have avoided without a guide.

The Amara Bangkok is a solid 3.5-star stay overall. The room size worked well for two people with luggage — not always a given in this category. The layout was practical and thoughtfully arranged, and it didn’t feel cluttered after a long travel day. You could actually open suitcases without having to reshuffle the entire room each morning. The space felt efficient and comfortable. The staff were consistently cordial and pleasant. Easy to approach, helpful when needed, and never intrusive. Service felt steady and professional. Breakfast was a strong point. A generous spread with both Thai options and familiar Western choices, allowing for variety from one morning to the next. It was a reliable and enjoyable way to start the day. There were, however, a few surprising gaps. The gym was essentially a small room with a couple of machines — no comprehensive workout setup, not even a yoga mat. The rooftop pool, which looks impressive online, turned out to be relatively small and consistently crowded. The atmosphere felt more congested than relaxing. The bar pricing was also noticeably high, edging closer to gouging than hospitality. Overall, this is not a destination hotel, and it does not position itself as one. It functions well as a practical base: comfortable room, friendly staff, and a strong breakfast. The core offering is solid, though some of the amenities do not quite align with the expectations suggested by its presentation.

Reviewing Panvaree The Greenery is not simple, because the experience genuinely pulls you in different directions. Let me start with what truly stands out. The views – 6 out of 5. Absolutely breathtaking. Waking up to limestone cliffs rising out of emerald water feels almost unreal. The early morning mist drifting across Cheow Lan Lake, long-tail boats cutting quietly through the water, sunset light hitting the rock faces — it is spectacular. Few places deliver scenery at this level. This alone makes the journey worthwhile. The staff – 6 out of 5. Pleasant, accommodating, warm, and genuinely kind. From the moment you step onto the floating dock, you feel welcomed. There is sincerity in the way they interact. A special mention to the Valentine’s Day dinner — we were pleasantly surprised by a beautifully arranged spread, with thoughtful decorations that made the evening feel festive and personal. It was an unexpected touch and very well executed. The program – 5 out of 5. Well organized and thoughtfully structured. The boat tours and lake activities are enjoyable and showcase the natural beauty of the area. The only drawback: the kayaks. The paddles are unusually heavy, which limits how long you can comfortably explore. In a setting like this, better equipment would meaningfully improve the experience. The food – 4 out of 5. Nicely presented and generous in portion. Overall good, though at times slightly bland and a bit oily for my personal taste. That said, dining while floating in the middle of the lake adds a certain magic that elevates the meal beyond the plate itself. Now the challenging part. The accommodation – 2 out of 5. The rooms are small and tight (for a couple with their luggage) . The bathroom is fully wet-style. Wi-Fi is unstable and difficult to rely on — and there is no cellular coverage. Air conditioning does not operate between 7am and 1pm. I understand the logistical constraints of running a floating resort inside a national park, and that context matters. Still, expectations should be clearly aligned with reality before arrival. Overall verdict: If you come expecting luxury comfort, you may be disappointed. If you come for nature, scenery, a unique floating experience, and very attentive staff — you will absolutely be rewarded.

We had a fantastic stay at The Tubkaak Krabi Boutique Resort in a pool-view room on the second floor. The room was thoughtfully designed, with enough space for two people and luggage without feeling tight. Everything was spotless, and we especially loved the outdoor shower — it added a relaxed, tropical feel that made the experience even more memorable. What made the stay even more special was the location. The resort sits toward the end of the road on Tubkaak Beach, away from the busier areas of Krabi. We truly appreciated that distance. It limited traffic, outside noise, and random foot traffic along the beach. The setting felt quiet, secluded, and calm — exactly what we were hoping for. It allowed the natural beauty of the beach and the sunsets to take center stage without distraction. The service is what truly elevates this property. The staff are exceptional — not just polite or efficient, but genuinely warm, attentive, and proud of what they do. There is an authenticity in their hospitality. From reception to the restaurant team, housekeeping, spa therapists, and beach staff, everyone contributed to making the stay seamless. You feel recognized. Small details are remembered. Assistance is offered naturally, without being intrusive. That level of care transforms a beautiful hotel into something personal. It makes you look forward to returning after a day out, knowing you will be welcomed with a smile and that everything is taken care of. The breakfasts and dinners were excellent in both quality and presentation. Morning yoga, paddle boarding, long beach walks, spa treatments, and cocktails at sunset directly on the beach created a perfect daily rhythm. The hotel feels intimate, calm, and refined, without being overly formal. A beautifully presented property with truly outstanding service. This is the kind of place you return to — not only for the setting, but for the people who make it special.

Our room at the De Chai The Colonial Hotel & Spa had room for 2 travelers with their luggage, with a modern, simple design, with a somewhat limited (partially obscured) view. That said, it did not detract from the overall comfort. The space was well maintained, nicely laid out, and clean. The bed was comfortable, and housekeeping kept everything in good order throughout our stay. The location is a major advantage. It is an easy walk to the Old City, multiple restaurants, temples, and numerous massage spots. The night markets are about a 10–20 minute walk away, close enough to be convenient but far enough to avoid the noise and crowds late at night. Service was excellent. The staff were genuinely caring and attentive, and interactions felt warm rather than transactional. Breakfast was good with solid variety, though the coffee was on the weaker side. Overall, a well-located hotel in Chiang Mai offering clean, comfortable rooms and consistently strong service.

Le Bel Air Resort Luang Prabang has a distinct French colonial style, visible both in the buildings and in the room we stayed in. The design carries through nicely, and the room felt cohesive and well thought out. Having a large bathroom with a generous counter and two sinks was a real plus. There was ample space for two people traveling with check-in luggage. We also enjoyed the balcony, especially in the evenings and in the morning with tea—it added to the sense of calm. From a practical standpoint, everything worked well. Water pressure was consistently good, there was plenty of hot water, and the air conditioning worked perfectly—something you really appreciate in this climate. This is a great place to relax. With relatively few guests, the property feels quiet and peaceful, offering a nice level of privacy. The atmosphere is calm and beautiful, with lush greenery throughout. Each area feels intentionally arranged, and the poolside zone is especially pleasant. The swimming pool was clean and inviting. The hotel staff was welcoming and accommodating throughout our stay, which added to the overall comfort and ease. We also appreciated the in-room and hotel amenities, including the nicely sized pool with bar service. The shuttle service to and from downtown and the night market was very convenient and made getting around easy. The main shortcoming was breakfast buffet. The selection of Lao food was very limited, and on our last day there were none at all. The Western options were average and felt repetitive. The coffee was particularly disappointing—weak, diluted, and prepared in a basic drip style into a large pot. Overall, this was a relaxing and welcoming stay. With a stronger breakfast offering, this place could easily be a top-notch hotel.

We did NOT stay and the Mintra Hotel but rather at the Salana Boutique Hotel (2 blocks away). The Salana Boutique Hotel is in a central, highly walkable location in Vientiane. Temples, restaurants, cafés, and key sights are all within easy reach, which made it simple to explore the city on foot without relying on transportation. The setting strikes a nice balance — convenient, yet not overly hectic. From the moment we arrived, the staff were welcoming and attentive. Check-in and check-out were smooth and efficient. Throughout our stay, the team was consistently helpful, offering advice and assisting with small requests without hesitation. That level of service makes a real difference when traveling between multiple destinations, where ease and reliability matter. Our room was a good size, with ample space for two people and luggage. The bed was comfortable, and the layout felt practical rather than cramped. The bathroom was also well proportioned, with a proper shower cubicle and good water pressure — always appreciated after a long day out exploring the city.

Our stay at MK Premier Boutique Hotel Hanoi was pleasant overall, with a few trade-offs worth noting. We had a front-facing room with a balcony, which unfortunately reduced the usable room size quite a bit. For two people traveling with luggage, the space already felt tight, and the balcony layout made it more so. Because of street noise, we didn’t end up using the balcony at all, so it felt like wasted space m. Choose a room without a balcony On the positive side, the staff were genuinely welcoming and friendly throughout our stay—helpful without being overbearing. Breakfast was also a highlight, with many options and dishes prepared fresh, which made mornings easy and enjoyable. Overall, good service and an excellent breakfast, but if space matters, a quieter, non-balcony bigger room might be the better choice.

Our full day in Bangkok was intense, colorful, and ultimately very rewarding — a comprehensive introduction to the city’s historical and cultural heart. Overall, this tour captures Bangkok’s contrasts — royal grandeur, spiritual depth, urban intensity, and river life — all in a single, well-structured day. It is full, but it delivers a strong and memorable overview of Bangkok. We loved the massage at the Wat Pho, massage school

This half-day excursion was an absolutely worth it. This was a well-paced and enjoyable half-day trip — iconic, photogenic, and uniquely Bangkok.

he morning at the Panvaree The Greenery was pleasant and relaxed, a nice way to close the stay. The boat transfer back to Cheow Lan Pier was well organized and ran smoothly. This time, the transportation logistics worked much better. The driver met us directly at the boat dock, which made the transition seamless. We were then taken comfortably to the airport, with a short stop for lunch along the way. Overall, the return journey was efficient and well coordinated.

The activities organized by Panvaree The Greenery were well paced and thoughtfully structured. There was a good balance between guided excursions and free time, allowing us to enjoy the lake without feeling rushed or over-scheduled. The boat tours, swimming , and relaxed periods to kayak or simply sit and take in the scenery created a natural rhythm to the stay. Nothing felt forced. The timing worked well with the light, the weather, and the overall atmosphere of the lake. Overall, the program was very enjoyable and contributed significantly to what became an excellent and memorable experience.

The transfer experience was less smooth than expected. The driver/guide did not speak English, so we had to communicate through the staff at The Tubkaak Krabi Boutique Resort before departure. That made coordination more complicated than it needed to be. Upon arrival at the harbor, we were dropped off in the parking lot without guidance or assistance. In a busy, somewhat chaotic setting with multiple boats and operators, it would have been helpful to be escorted to the correct pier or at least clearly handed over to the next team. Instead, we were left to navigate the situation ourselves. Yet, once we were "found" by the Panvaree The Greenery staff it was a smooth wonderful experience.

Due to weather, our original sunset 7-island tour with the bioluminescent swim was changed at the last minute to a morning 4-island tour without the bio-luminescent component (we are still waiting on clarification regarding the refund). Unfortunately, this adjustment did not feel like a good use of our time. Our hotel offered a very similar 4-island experience directly from the beach in front of the property. Had we booked locally, we would have avoided roughly two hours of travel each way, as our transfer involved picking up and dropping off other passengers along the route. In total, close to four hours of the day were spent in transit. In addition, the group size — about 16 people — made the experience feel less personal and less intimate than we had expected. A smaller boat departing directly from the hotel would likely have created a more relaxed atmosphere and a smoother flow to the day. We understand that weather conditions require flexibility, but in this case the alternative offered did not match the value or experience of the original plan.

The Tubkaak Krabi Boutique Resort was truly amazing and made our stay in Krabi both wonderful and memorable. From the setting on Tubkaak Beach to the thoughtful design and exceptional service, everything came together seamlessly. The atmosphere is calm and intimate, the property beautifully maintained, and the attention to detail evident throughout. We have only praise for this wonderful resort. It delivers not only comfort and beauty, but a feeling — of being cared for, of slowing down, of being exactly where you want to be. Highly recommended.

The Chiang Mai City Safari offers a well-paced and varied introduction to the city, combining local life, food, and major cultural landmarks in a single day. Overall, this tour works well as a structured overview of Chiang Mai. It blends transportation modes (tuk-tuk ride) , neighborhoods, food, and temples into a cohesive experience, offering both cultural context and local flavor.

The jungle hike was fun. . The walk itself was scenic and peaceful. At the village, we sampled locally grown Arabica coffee prepared by the farmers — a simple but memorable moment. We then visited the Royal Twin Pagodas, beautifully maintained and set against sweeping views. The gardens are carefully designed, and the setting gives a sense of both reverence and national pride. Lunch at the Royal Highland Project was pleasant and well organized.

The starting time of this anticipated activity was moved earlier (from 430 PM to 3 PM), while we were caught in a very long immigration line at Chiang Mai airport. As a result, we only arrived for the final 45 minutes of the Monk Chat That said, even those last 45 minutes were highly engaging. The discussion was open, thoughtful, and refreshingly direct. The monks answered questions candidly, offering insight into Buddhist practice, daily monastic life, and broader cultural perspectives. It felt authentic and unscripted. We genuinely wished we had been able to attend the full three hours. Even a short portion left us wanting more.

Both activities were unique and genuinely interesting. We learned a great deal about traditional paper making and paper art. Mrs. Ting introduced the history and vision behind preserving this craft, explaining not only the technique but also its cultural importance. The process itself was engaging — working with natural fibers and incorporating fresh flowers into the sheets gave a new appreciation for something that can appear decorative, yet carries real depth and heritage. In the afternoon, we continued to a community-based rice farm set in the countryside. There, we had the opportunity to experience aspects of a farmer’s daily routine — planting, working the fields, and understanding the rhythm of rice cultivation. It added perspective to something we often take for granted. The visit extended beyond rice. We explored small handicraft workshops, including bamboo weaving, blacksmithing, and sugarcane processing, each demonstrating skills passed down through generations. The tour concluded with a walk through the organic garden, where natural herbs and their uses in traditional medicine were explained. The day combined creativity, agriculture, and rural life — offering a grounded and authentic look at local traditions beyond the temples and city streets.

Our day in Vientiane offered a concise but meaningful introduction to Laos capital. the tour provided a well-structured overview of Vientiane’s spiritual and historical foundations, giving context to a capital that feels modest yet culturally significant. We also enjoyed the artistic interpretations of the Buddha Park

Participating in the early morning alms giving was a meaningful unique experience for us. THANKS. the visit to the Morning Market offers a completely different — and very real — side of Luang Prabang. And then the city tour provided helpful context and structure. Visiting temples such as Wat Xieng Thong, walking through historic streets, and learning about the blend of Lao and French colonial influence gave depth to a picturesque city. Together, the market and the temples provide balance — daily life and spiritual life, present and past — offering a fuller understanding of what makes Luang Prabang unique.

We enjoyed the experience and the quality of the staff, food and atmosphere. A memorable event.

Uyuni was nothing short of extraordinary. The vast salt flats felt surreal — endless white horizons blending seamlessly into the sky, creating a landscape unlike anywhere else on earth. Every sunrise and sunset brought dramatic light and breathtaking reflections, making it a dream destination for photography. It was a rare experience that felt both humbling and truly a once-in-a-lifetime journey.

Was very impressed with the family room that accommodated our family of four very comfortably. Food and service were excellent.

Boating and snorkeling conditions were not ideal so it is difficult to rate. Even in ideal conditions, stopping at 3 islands might have been a bit unnecessary unless you enjoy speedboat rides.

This was our kid's favorite and probably mine as well. The staff were so kind and interacting with the elephants was the best!

I was the least sure about this one but so glad we went. The market was very cool to see and was actually a great place to pickup souvenirs.

AMAZING!!! This was the highlight of our trip by far. The staff was outstanding. The views impeccable. The experience unmatched. The waterfalls stunning....just amazing all around.

This hike was really just ok. Our guide was AMAZING, and very knowlegeable and he tried to pull out little details we wouldn't have ever seen without him, but there really wasn't much to see (and it was not due to the cloud cover).

Our guide was fun, passionate and very knowledgeable about the process of coffee and chocolate from growing to harvesting to production. The tasting experience was super helpful and we learned a lot about the entire process.

Everything about this trip was amazing. The sites. The staff. The precautions to make us feel safe. Just truly superb! Loved every second of it!!

Lovely jungle lodge. Breakfast was great! People were great. Birds galore! Caiman too!! Overall nice.

Eh, basic Holiday Inn Room. Okay for one night stay. Room was smelly. Proximity to airport: excellent! Just 5 mins away.

Gorgeous location, gorgeous suite, gorgeous sunsets!! We didn’t want to leave!! Close proximity to the lovely downtown. We could literally walk to everything. Close yet away from the noise. 5 stars! The front desk people were awesome. We weren’t fans of the breakfast though. The guy there wasn’t exactly giving off pura vida vibes, if you ask me! The options too were kinda eh. The accommodation itself was excellent!

The cooking class was fun because of the company we had. Two other travelers were in our little group. The cooking class itself seemed a little “let’s wing it” kinda thing. Would have liked it to be more organized and upbeat. Perhaps some music in the background. Proper recipe cards for each participant, some hey let’s take pictures … that kinda thing. Upon one of the participants’ request, the cooking instructor emailed us the recipes later. There was also some confusion on a dancing class post dinner. Also it wasn’t a 2hr50 min activity. More like under 2 hours. All in all, a little disappointing. The food was yummy though.

Okay, I’m probably being a bit snooty here. But having lived in Seattle for a major part of my life, the rainforest walk itself wasn’t as exciting as I thought it would be. If you’ve never been to a rainforest, you should probably go and experience. Our guide Will Nunez though- oh what a brilliant guide!! He has a ton of knowledge on all flora and fauna of Monteverde and CR in general. He showed us two tarantulas!! That was the highlight, really! As for birds, they were there alright, but hard to spot because of the dense forest. We did see a beautiful hummingbird chick in a nest. I think we enjoyed Will’s company more than the rainforest itself!

Our guide Oscar was brilliant! Knowledgeable and knew exactly where to take us so we could see the beautiful CR birds. Including the endangered Quetzal!! Didn’t realize how fast the 4 hours went by!!

Very comfortable, walking to many attractions, breakfast included gets day started right.

This was a good tour for our day in Tokyo. Our guide was insightful and we enjoyed the tour.

Mawamba Lodge is set in an excellent location, accessible only by boat. While it wasn't as welcoming as Pacuare Lodge, the location offered a chance to walk into town, which made us appreciate the peaceful setting outside the town of Tortuguero. The lodge was lovely, and the guides and activities were great; however, I might consider trying another lodge in the area if I return, possibly one managed by Böëna, since their lodge experiences seem to stand out.

Hotel Presidente in San José offered a pleasant experience. We enjoyed a great dinner at their lovely restaurant, which made for a relaxing start to our trip. Though it didn't quite match the grandeur of other accommodations on our trip, it provided a comfortable stay in the heart of the city.

Hotel Banana Azul in Puerto Viejo was perfectly fine but felt a bit jarring after staying at Pacuare Lodge. It's located right on a road with some traffic, but it's just a short path from the beach, which would be great for beach lovers. We stayed in a lovely little room with an immersion pool, which was nice. The location allowed us to easily get into town and move around, so overall it was a satisfactory stay.

Beautiful, welcoming and luxurious without being pretentious.

Very relaxing don't forget your swimsuit

The drive through the country was breathtaking

Beautiful location, fabulous view, amazing dining area. Very responsive staff.

Beautiful view of nature. Wonderful restaurant! Room was very comfortable and felt very private.

Loved the hot springs! The staff were so friendly and professional. The facility is very well maintained and soooo beautiful.

Our guide at Arenal Volcano was keenly aware of our surroundings and was able to show us some animal life we never would have noticed on our own. La Fortuna waterfall was worth all 500 steps down and 500 steps back up!

Our stay at Palais L’Heure Bleue was truly a lovely experience. The hotel is stunning — elegant, intimate, and beautifully authentic. It perfectly blends Moroccan charm with a subtle French refinement, creating such a unique and welcoming atmosphere. The breakfast buffet was superb, with wonderful variety and quality, and dinner in the restaurant felt elegant and special — a true dining experience. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and overall everything worked beautifully… except for the coffee machine, which gave us a bit of a morning challenge (lol!). But even that added a little character to the stay. All in all, it was a memorable and delightful place to stay, and we would happily return.

Alkanar Camp was an absolute blast and truly one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. They anticipated every need — bringing tea, coffee, and anything else to ensure we were comfortable and relaxed. The dinner was delicious, beautifully prepared, and enjoyed under the most stunning desert sky. The evening entertainment was lively and so much fun — such a special way to experience the atmosphere of the desert. And our hut? Absolutely adorable. Cozy, charming, and far more comfortable than we expected. Waking up there felt surreal. It was an unforgettable experience and one we’ll be talking about for a long time.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Palais Khum.The hotel itself is lovely, beautifully maintained, and very welcoming. The staff was warm, attentive, and consistently helpful throughout our visit. Our room was comfortable, well-appointed, and everything functioned perfectly — which always makes a stay feel seamless and relaxing. The only small hiccup was breakfast. It felt a bit chaotic at times and the selection was somewhat limited compared to the overall quality of the hotel. That said, it didn’t take away from an otherwise very pleasant experience. Also, one important thing. The hotel hotel is not properly placed on Google maps. We really got lost. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would happily return.

What an unforgettable experience. Sleeping in the middle of the desert under brilliant blue skies and bright, sparkling stars felt truly magical. Our cozy hut was comfortable and thoughtfully prepared, making the whole adventure feel both authentic and relaxing. My husband and I especially loved the evening entertainment — we got such a kick out of it! The flamethrower performance was incredible, and the energy of the night made it even more special. The food was delicious and beautifully prepared. Most of all, we felt genuinely well cared for from start to finish. The staff made sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. It was a unique experience we will always remember. Highly recommend if you want something truly different and memorable while in Morocco.

The Medina in Marrakesh is wild, vibrant, and completely unforgettable. Mohamed guided us through the winding streets and souks on an incredible food tour that turned out to be one of the highlights of our entire trip to Morocco. We sampled a variety of authentic Moroccan dishes — from fresh street food to local specialties — and everything was delicious. What made it even better was knowing the food was freshly prepared and thoughtfully selected. I honestly think some of the bites we had that day were the best food I ate during our whole trip. Mohamed made the experience fun, safe, and meaningful. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Marrakesh.

Our cooking class at La Maison Arabe was an absolute blast and one of the highlights of our time in Morocco. We learned how to make chicken tagine with a wonderful chef and an incredibly warm and gracious hostess/owner. It was truly the best cooking class I’ve ever taken. Each of us had our own workstation, and there was a television monitor so we could clearly watch the chef’s demonstrations step-by-step. Assistants were nearby to guide us and make sure everything turned out beautifully, which made the experience feel relaxed, organized, and fun. The space itself was lovely — modern and polished, yet still infused with a beautiful Moroccan vibe. It felt authentic without being overwhelming. Such a memorable morning filled with great food, learning, and laughter. Highly recommend to anyone visiting!

Beautiful Hotel.

Very unique rooms literally said in a rainforest. The big draw for our room was the hot tub.

We arrived and learned that our reservation had been erroneously canceled. The staff at the hotel could not have been nicer in working with us to try to get suitable accommodations. In their facility. Plus overall the staff went out of their way to make us feel at home including the cocktails in the evening and the absolutely spectacular breakfasts. This is definitely the place to stay in Queenstown.

A very nice train ride on a beautiful train.

A very peaceful boat trip with a small boat of only 12 passengers. Lots of birds and interesting plants to see. You actually get very close to the shoreline. Great commentary by the guides.

Once in a lifetime experience. The glacier is spectacular. He will not get closer than you do on this trip.

Great experience! A highlight of our trip.

Lovely setting, but the beds were uncomfortable. It seemed to me that it was designed for people making a pilgrimage to Sukhothai. And that is perfectly fine. It’s a beautiful facility. The pool was excellent.

Probably my favorite hotel.

Centrally located on the Chao Praya river and has its own ferry. Very comfortable, clean rooms and beds. Excellent service. The staff were superb, as was breakfast. Great views of the river from our room.

Our guide 'Football' in Sukhothai was fantastic! He shared so much knowledge about the history of Thailand's first civilization and even helped us find the best spots for photos. His storytelling and ability to bring history to life made the full day sightseeing tour in Sukhothai memorable.

We visited an elephant camp and my wife especially enjoyed it. It was great to see the elephants treated kindly without any tourists riding on them. It was a pleasant experience seeing the elephants in a respectful environment.

Excellent location , clean and comfortable accommodation , especially the beds. Helpful staff. Disappointing breakfast.

Mixed. We were left to visit the waterfall without our guide as rules precluded him from taking us round.
