Kimkim Trip Reviews

Didn’t stay here because they were having water issues. Stayed at Riad Dar Chrifa. Dar Chrifa was excellent. The host Michael (Toufal) was fantastic. He gave us info on Morocco, some of its customs and culture. He graciously attended to our every need and made us feel at home with his hospitality and humor. He is a real asset for Riad Dar Chrifa.

Met our driver, Rafiq. Rafiq is absolutely the best. He was attentive, flexible and made our stay in Morocco interesting and fun.

We had a blast!! Our driver, Rafiq, surprised us when he can to the camp in the evening to play the drum, sing and dance.

I really enjoyed the cooking lesson, but was slightly disappointed thinking we would actually spend time with a family learning more about day to day life in Morocco. Maybe just my miss understanding.

My husband wasn’t feeling well. We told the guide we wanted to shorten the tour. He was very flexible and followed our wishes. At the end of the tour we tipped him an amount we thought was appropriate. He stomped away mumbling. It was obvious he was not appreciative of the tip we had given.

Our original driver, Rafiq, needed to leave us for another job. He introduced us to our driver for this last day in Morocco, Sallam. Sallam was great! He made our last day wonderful. And Rafiq checked in with Sallam to be sure we were well taken care of.

True luxury boutique hotel with amazing food and wonderful helpful staff

Fantastic place to stay in rural setting, with stunning views and charming rooms. The food was also fabulous and the absolute highlight was feeding the resident giraffes.

Pleasant lodge with great views and friendly staff

Clean pleasant accommodation but not really boutique (a large complex and part of a conference centre) Quite a distance from city centre

Remote but Stunning location and character cottages with amazing views very friendly staff

Luxury hotel with beautifully appointed rooms. Fantastic breakfast Really good restaurants/dining options onsite, but need to book ahead

A Large complex, with Very spacious cottages in lovely grounds. View from our room was great, but would vary depending on which cottage you stay in. fabulous pool with great views. Excellent restaurant area /outdoor dining with buffet meals of good standard

Excellent standard for an airport hotel - a green oasis! Comfortable and opulent decorated rooms. Spacious grounds and pool, and very good restaurants onsite and next door in casino complex

Service and accommodations were very Elegant. The breakfast buffet was the best. Everything fresh and décor beautiful.

The best pools and best beach access. No elevators. Rooms need to be updated. Desk people not very friendly no smiles.

Absolutely exciting! I was a little afraid but glad I did it. I wanted to see a big 🐊 we saw a baby one.

Super fun hotel, great bedding!

Good location, friendly staff, tired hotel.

Great location just outside the old city, nice and tidy hotel.

Very friendly host, lots of character. A way from central amboise.

Great location, easy to get everywhere.

Lovely hotel, a bit of a walk from the city.

A very tired hotel, smelled like chlorine. Not a great location, but a good view of the river.

A lovely apartment, great hosts and everything you could want in terms of facilities. Not near the medieval city.

Beautiful hotel in a great location. Felt luxurious.

Absolutely fantastic guide and incredible countryside. We want to spend a month in the dordogne!

Very beautiful area, knowledgeable guide who was excellent with our kids.

Great experience, loved everything about it, including our fabulous guide.

A fantastic way to spend the day, loved it. It’s great to explore Versailles on bike.

I think this was the best tour of our trip. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and fantastic with our kids.

This was a very interesting tour, but not as engaging for young children. Recommended for teenagers/adults.

Very knowledgeable guide, interesting area.

Great experience in less busy area of the island.

Good hotel with everything you need. We haven't spend too much time inside. Beds were very comfortable and huge :-) .

Great experience. Our guide was very actionable and she was explaining everything all the way. Thanks Kanya for great evening.

Very relaxing day - the lake is awesome, water is clean and warm. We had enough time for swimming and kayaking, food for lunch was delicious. Hiking to cave and through forest was quite an easy one, we were expecting much more difficult hike. It's easy for kids as well.

We were a bit disappointed with night safari. First of all we wouldn't call it safari, however we might be spoiled by real safari in Africa. We would rather call it easy walk through night forest on wide pathways, but a bit overcrowded with lot of other people group, which were unable to keep quiet. Therefore also the number of spotted animals was quite limited (besides insect and some snakes). We were lucky to spot few sleeping monkeys.

The staff at this hotel is amazing. Paul, Daniel and Pablo solved all of our problems, provided priceless guidance and help us navigate the city. The breakfast was delightful and the staff was so welcoming.

Beautiful hotel. Perfect location, near the train station and city attractions. Everything was within walking distance. Excellent breakfast.

BEAUTIFUL. The room we had was beautifully designed and I wish it was my bedroom. Perfect location for walking to all city sights.

This hotel was equally as nice as the one in Belfast, but not as new. It was in a great location, near both the train station and the city center. The breakfast was also excellent.

We really loved this hotel. The location was fantastic, rooms were comfortable and the restaurant was top-notch.

Nice hotel with a nice location. Rooms are a bit smaller than other rooms we have been in.

This hotel is a nice hotel but doesn't fit our demographic. The rooms are very dark, with no natural lighting. Because of the indoor jacuzzi everything was damp.

Nice hotel and the location across the street from the airport was very convenient as we had a 6:00 am flight.

We absolutely loved this hotel! While it wasn't in the middle of town, we could still walk to everything. The hotel itself is beautiful with generous rooms. The restaurant and its staff are excellent and the view is spectacular.

This was a perfect outing for the last day of our 20 day trip. It showed us the true Santorini and Elsa was very knowledgeable.

This was a very unique tour. It was good because you got to see Crete, but off the beaten path. Definitely areas that most tourists don't get to see. For us, the trip was much more about local food and tasting than most food tours we have been on.

This was an unfortunate day, not because of the location or our guide, but because of the weather. To have to spend about 6 hours driving and to have the weather be cold, windy, and rainy when you get to the beach it is very disappointing. I am sure the beach is super beautiful but it wasn't on the day we were there.

This is a super interesting tour and in our opinion, a can't miss. The ruins and the stories behind it all are fascinating.

If you are heading to Athens, this is a must see. It explains so much of the Greek culture.

Half of the group really loved the experience and the other half didn't. It all depends on your food interests and if you like what they are focusing on that evening, it is a great experience. If you don't than not so much so.

This should not be labelled as a Food and Wine Walking Tour. It is a cultural tour of the City - which we appreciated, however that isn't what the name implies. We started tasting some local cheese, but then finished the evening at a restaurant where we did some wine tasting with appetizers.

Our local drive/driver was mis-informed about the correct arrival time. We had to wait and search for our immigration guide which took about 15 minutes of waiting/calling KimKim customer service, and we had to wait for about 20 mins for a new driver to come and pick us up.

Our Wadi Rum experience was spectacular. Our local guide, Ibrahim, was very kind and went above and beyond in giving us a phenomenal experience. The drive in the desert is unimaginable, though, I should mention - it is not a jeep drive but a pick-up drive around.

Good location for tourists, just near Walking Street (pub street), and also close to big market.

Another great place to stay for one night on Halong Bay…great big bedroom…lovely food etc.

Another fantastic location chosen by Dat…

2 nights spent here were most enjoyable…the only place we did get ripped off by a taxi driver for going only 2 blocks, as we mixed up the map of where we were headed!!

6 great nights spent here…very relaxing and once again very central to walk anywhere. Even the restaurant owner opposite this hotel became our personal taxi whenever we wanted to go to beaches or tailors etc.

Another great experience, possibly would not repeat, but wonderful to see on first trip.

Another perfect location…we did end up finding it great to get around HCMC from here. Staff were very helpful, but the markets and great shops were all within 5-10 minutes walk

Really enjoyed Hanoi…the food tour was great, trying traditional foods in several places.

Another wonderful experience…they are amazing how they row these boats with their feet.

Another fantastic experience…going to local market…then going to Chins home to help prepare our large lunch…then a walk around her village to friends homes, who grow/make different things…then onto a tea factory. (Unfortunately, we all did get the runs for a couple of days following this day…so not blaming anything really!)

Another great trip to Halong Bay…they even brought me a birthday cake out and sang to me…which was a lovely touch….and then also to Helen who’s bday was 2 days later.

Went sailing to see the wild monkeys in Halong Bay.

It’s great to learn a bit about the tradition of the country you are visiting, but half a day is really enough for us in things like this…we did enjoy, but also loved getting back to hotel for a swim.

We were taken to museum, temples etc, which are in every town…but still always good to see once. Food was delicious again.

Another interesting day, riding through to a fishing village then lunch in a local restaurant again.

Very moving day…the war remnants museum, then to Cu Chi Tunnels….very sad but interesting to see.

Once again a great experience, if I have to be honest, we didn’t love the local singers performing in their home, as it was all in Vietnamese and we couldn’t understand what they were singing etc.. The bike ride itself was good…very interesting life on the island…even funnier for us was seeing the ferry how we got over to island. Then we had a great cooking demonstration back at the lodge.

A wonderful morning …spent at the market and industrial area of Cai Abe…we did enjoy this before heading back to a HCMC where we had a couple of last days to shop.

Mingma and his staff create such a warm and inviting experience for people! I strongly recommend the Panorama.

A very Himalayan experience. This village and teahouse were so authentic and welcoming.

This tea house was more hostel like than tea house. I was hoping for more of the tea house feel.

Such a great experience. The tea house was welcoming and warm and clean. The main dining area was both beautiful and friendly.

Our favorite hotel of the whole trip, the room had an absolutely stunning view over the lake and the mountains. A short walk (1 mile/2.2 km) from town. The town had some of the best parilla we had on our trip. Clean and a nice breakfast in the morning as well.

Very nice hotel situated in the middle of town. They had a fantastic breakfast spread, the sauna/hot tubs will come in handy after a full day of hiking (trust us)! No complaints and a knowledgeable front desk that will help you organize your hikes while in town.

Beautiful hotel situated in the rainforest, close to the falls which is nice. Massive breakfast spread, great service, but an incredible ambiance. A hotel like we have never stayed at before, highly recommend. Hotel is a bit far outside of town but easy to get to in a taxi.

Very cute small boutique hotel with excellent staff and service. The morning breakfast is delightful and the room was quite spacious and cozy. It's central nature in the old city is perfect for wandering around and exploring but it is located in a popular spot and therefore can be a bit noisy on weekend evenings (this is only a problem if you leave the windows open while sleeping at night). Would highly recommend a stay here and would definitely stay again.

A great hotel in a perfect location in Harlem. Lovely breakfast in the morning that is quite extensive. The rooms were a bit small, but as we didn't spend much time in them it wasn't an issue. We had a balcony room that faced the main street and therefore things were a bit loud late in the evenings on the weekend, but we otherwise enjoyed our stay. The front desk staff was quite helpful and made delicious dinner recommendations and helped us with reservations.

A beautiful grand hotel. A little bit outside of the main bustling aspect of Ghent which we appreciated. The morning breakfast was the best we had on our trip. Lovely room, quite spacious with comfortable bed. Our bathroom shower had trouble draining one day and the hotel fixed it quickly once we called them. Only complaint was that renting bikes was extra but other than that would highly recommend a stay here. They also have a spa which had we known we might have tried and booked ahead of time, but they were all full when we were there.

A fun place to stay for a couple of nights. However, the front desk staff is hard to get ahold of and often not at the desk. The room was spacious and comfortable. They are doing renovations on their spa so this was closed when we were there. The hotel is located at the top of a very large hill so make sure to have good walking shoes if you plan on walking to and from town.

Lovely small hotel in a great location in Delft. Easy access from the train station and to most of Delft's main attractions. The room was quite large and comfortable. The breakfast was decent but nothing fantastic. It suited our needs and we were very comfortable during our 3 night stay.

Very knowledgeable guide who shared some secret insights into the beautiful and historic city of Amsterdam. We learned some fascinating tid bits and really enjoyed our time in the city.

We loved Hoorn! Marken was mostly closed when we were there but we enjoyed wandering around the little sleepy town. Volendam is very touristy and I think we could have skipped it. Would have easily spent more time in Hoorn if possible. We loved our boat tour around Hoorn. This city is incredibly charming and full of great history.

Such a fun hour excursion!

This made all our transport needs quite easy. We didn't have to think about taking any particular train, tram or bus.

We were taken to a place with the most amazing Apple pie! All the food we had was delicious. We got a little rushed on our last cheese stop as we had tickets for the Anne Frank House. Otherwise it was greatly enjoyable and we loved all the food.

We love a good boat tour and while we had already walked around most of the city it was fun to see it from the water.

This hotel and staff were wonderful. There was a minor mistake on one part of our meal and they immediately went into action to fix it and make sure we were all right. They went above and beyond. The location was beautiful and everyone was wonderful!
