Kimkim Trip Reviews

location right next to the train station was great. The restaurant was excellent, both for dinner and breakfast

Great location. Excellent breakfast.

Room was very well decorated, and classy. the fresh fish at the restaurant was excellent. Service and staff were excellent.

The scenery in this town is amazing. The room was very comfortable and the bed was very good. We had both Saturday night supper and Sunday morning breakfast there. Both were amazing buffets.

Great location for the train station and inner city attractions

Very good culture tour, with a very knowledgeable guide who knew a lot about the city, country and history of Norway. The food part of the tour was a little light.

the sauna was super warm, and after we were in for a bit we jumped into the ocean. Very refreshing

We were given a beautiful room and we loved it

The room we were given had a really bad smell in it. I tried to get another room but none were available. I had to go get a candle and burn it all night. The smell never went away, but with the candle burning I was able to tolerate it.

The best hotel we stayed in. I absolutely loved this hotel. Nice room and bathroom. The breakfast was amazing and the shared areas were beautiful with ocean views.

The hotel was great and in a perfect location. I only wish we would have had our own room. We ended up getting a room with our friends and had to share a bathroom. I would have rather paid more and gotten our own room

We only got to stay here for 1 night because we had a canceled flight from Paris. But the hotel was perfect. Great location and big comfortable bed and bathroom. The breakfast was so yummy. Loved it

The winery was beautiful and very clean. Loved the tastings and the food was good

This is the boat ride we did not get to experience. The tour right before it went long so we missed be able to do this tour. Very sad because I was looking forward to this one. The good news is at least we were able to pick up a ferry to take us back to our hotel area, otherwise we would have had to walk back about 10 miles to get to hote.

Had a great guide...Dannee we had a wonderful ride up the funicular, did an incredible hike and had an amazing lunch up on the mountain. There was alittle issue with timing and we were late to our boat ride so we ended up not being able to do the whole boat ride and we ended up getting just a ride back to our hotel area. It was alittle disappointing because I would have loved to experience the boat for a couple of hours, instead we only got 30 minutes.

This was a fun day. Wine was good and the ice cream was great.

Best tour ever. We so loved doing this tour. Had so much fun driving up to the cooking class. It was crazy scary and fun at the same time. The lunch was great and the boat ride was awesome. There was alittle mix up with the boat driver not knowing that we were supposed to be able to swim and we were supposed to be dropped off by our hotel. But it was still awesome to experience the boat ride

The bus driver was the best. He detoured our bus so we could go pick up our friends luggage that was lost for 5 days. We still got to see Pisa and Lucca which were so cute.

Great guides and went to lots of fun places. Loved the area and the guide told us so much about the region. The dinner was outstanding and the wine was so good

Our guide was the BEST. She was so smart and provided a ton of great information about the area and wine and olive oil. I highly recommend this tour

Loved this tour and the beautiful roof top terrace we had some coffee on. Very imformative tour

Was unable to go on this tour because our flight was cancelled

Did not go on this tour because our flight was cancelled so we missed this tour

Another amazing day. It was beautiful weather and the guide was great. The boat ride was awesome and the lunch was so good. Loved this area and it was a great day

The guide was ok, but not great. The walking was fine, but it was alittle hard to understand her

I got to sit in the King/Queen seats. It was really nice

The rooms were small but the bed was comfortable and the breakfast was great. Best thing about this hotel was the roof top deck that we sat our every change we could to have a glass of wine and look at the Acropolis.

The place was beautiful. It was very relaxing, but the staff was not prepared for a group of 25 people. They didn't explain how the lunch was going to be serviced as a family style meal. We were all in separate lounge chairs and they brought food out in big bowls, but we didn't have individual plates so we couldn't just take some and pass it on. And quite honestly we didn't know we were supposed to do that. Lots of confusion. We were suppose to get a drink with our lunch and that didn't happen until lunch was over. In fact we got our beer 1 hour after the lunch was served. But it was still a cool place

Best Tour ever!!!!!!! We loved this boat ride. The drinks, food and scenery were amazing. We even saw Dolphins playing. It was by far my favorite tour. Walking around the islands was fun and stopping to get a drink was great. Loved this whole experience. They even gave me a hotdog and fries which was not on their normal menu. I can't say enough about this tour it was the BEST

Going through the cannel was amazing. The boat ride was fun and we learned alot. It was great walking up to the castle and the lunch was really nice. We went to a small town and walked around and had a dinner at a really nice restaurant with beautiful sunset views. Food was really good too. Had the best Greek salad. The only issue was we had a long ride home on the bus and for some reason the A/C was not working or bus driver did not turn it on so we were all sweating on the way home.

The Poseidon was really nice and very interesting to see. The Fish Tavern we had dinner at was in a great location on the water, but I did not like the meal. It was served family style and had alot of food that I would not eat. The red wine was very sweet and not good and there were alot of little bugs everywhere since we were on the water. Overall this was not a restaurant I would want to come back to. I am a very picky eater so some people would love this authentic restaurant, but not me.

This was amazing. Our guide was so knowledgeable and told us great stories and the history of democracy which was so interesting. We visited lots of really special places and had an awesome beer tasting experience. We also went through the farmers market which was busy and interesting. I highly recommend this tour which in Athens

It was a very nice ride to the airport. The guide early picking us up and it was an easy drive to the airport

Was a great meal and wine was good

Very accommodating staff from the time we arrived until check out. Breakfast was wonderful on the patio and rooms were outstanding.

This was the best hotel we stayed at. Incredible view and impressive service.

Perfect stay for an early departure.

This hotel worked great for us and our short stay but didn't compare to the other hotel stays. It was a bit of a Bahamian vibe.

Unfortunately I was sea sick most of the time. Regardless, this excursion was one for the books. The captain took good care of me and the kids and I had a blast.

Very cool vibe, nice touches, like hot water bottles in our bed, hot tea in the evenings , etc. Nice breakfast. Central location. Excellent staff.

Our guide, Freddy, was the best!

The riad is in a great location, close to the main road so you don't have to haul your luggage toooo far, but within the medina and nice a quiet. It was easy to get around to shops, restaurants, etc. Beautiful space, our room was comfortable and o good bathroom. My mom and I were sharing and i think they took a double and split it, so the individual beds were very very narrow. But other than that, it was great (so if you're sharing a bed, should be excellent!)

It's a typical Riad off of a bit of a windy alley, but easy to find with local landmarks and centrally located. Their breakfast was HUGE and while we didn't eat dinner there, it looked like to others eating had quite a spread. The two men working there were happy to help with anything we needed and took great care of us! The decoration of the rooms and the interior in general were amazing!

The room was great, food was excellent. It's a complicated maze to get in and out, but once you get that down, you can't beat the location!! Would definitely recommend it! And I loved Chefchaouen!!

we were the only people out of 14 tents available--which seems like it should be nice, but was a little lonely. The tent was nice, it did have aircon. if you've been on a safari in Kenya/Tanzania, it's not quite that roomy a setup, but the bed was comfortable, staff were nice, bathroom was great. No issues and would recommend. BUT, I would ask your company to make sure there will be others there--and if not maybe look at other tent options (e.g. the non-luxury group next door--same company--had about 30 tents and at least half were full that night. would have been better (and louder) atmosphere).

If you're going to the desert, this is a nice place to pass some time. There's a nice pool, a good courtyard with both sunny and shady spots, a room off of the restaurant with some lounging options, and the rooms are good. The staff were nice, beds were super comfortable, etc!

it's a bit off of the beaten track, but well worth it! The staff were absolutely amazing, so nice and welcoming. The amount of food they provided was enough for at least 6 people (there were 2 of us)! and the room was really comfortable. Enough space (not huge but fine), good bathroom, window onto the garden where I watched a local family collect apricots.

The Riad itself is nice. The walk to the Riad down the winding and sometimes dark alley was not my favorite. As a woman alone, I definitely didn't like it. It was safe, nothing at all happened, but it made me feel a bit nervous. The room was good and looked out onto the main courtyard and plunge pool. Couldn't keep the windows open as it would be to noisy, but aircon worked fine. The breakfast was good...lots of options.

Fine for a late arrival. I thought the room smelled like smoke even though it was non-smoking.

Breakfast was amazing!! Staff was helpful and accommodating.

Breakfast was absolutely fantastic. The hotel staff was helpful and flexible during our stay.

Blanca became part of our family during the course of the day trip. She literally spent the entire day with us getting to know us and us her. Her knowledge of the history of Bruges was amazing. Her recommendations for where to eat and even more so, where to snack, was spot on. We highly recommend using Blanca for tours in Bruges.

Eva was great guide that took us away from the 'commercial areas' to understand more about Amsterdam and all of the history from when it was founded and evolved over the years. She used maps and visuals to really bring that history to life so we could fully understand the significance of the city. We highly recommend Eva for anyone interested in touring Amsterdam.

Probably the best tour and museum on our trip. Having the passes ready for us made the experience that much better.

Monika was a great guide. She gave us personal insight into the history and events that took place in Berlin.

Beautiful setting, hot tub feature, welcome and services from staff helpful

Thanos extremely helpful to us throughout our stay, arranging a birthday celebration for my grandson, coordinating rides for us, and helping us rent a second room for comfort

Great place to start our trip, comfortable and welcoming

Loved Delos tour. More “friendly” than Athens Parthenon tour

Guide knowledgeable. Very friendly and private tour able to accommodate my handicap

Loved the boat, activities, and friendly staff Sunset pictures amazing

Great to have our own time to explore

Historical

Walking to the beach long and difficult with my hsndicap. Driver did drive down to pick up up after

Our personal guide was knowledgeable, friendly and aware of my handicap needs. Great tour

Our guide was very knowledgeable and really helped us with more knowledge and background info.

The taxi service was very accommodating. I asked to leave earlier and they helped me make that happen without any extra fees.

Giada was a pleasure to meet. Fun, witty and she knows the local spots for food. It was really nice to met someone from the city and to ask her questions about Venice throughout her life there. We loved her.

Such an amazing way to see the different cities. Our boat operator was fantastic and added so many different touches with his knowledge of the area. We had a blast.

Carmela is amazing. She made this cooking class so much fun. We couldn’t stop laughing throughout the experience.

Our driver was amazing. He took such great care of us and even stopped by the airport, out of his way with no extra charge, to grab my sister’s bag that was delayed a few days.

This was our most favorite activity of the trip. Such a cool experience and breathtaking views of the countryside.

Absolutely fantastic and our guide was a pleasure to meet.

We loved Dimitri. Amazing host and so knowledge of the city and food.

One of the best experiences we had in Argentina, and definitely our favorite night in Buenos Aires! Pierre and Graciela were fabulous hosts! We were taken on a tour of the historical tango area of Buenos Aires where we learnt all about the history of the tango, dance and music. We had an excellent time in Pierre and Graciela's home making empanadas and chatting with them and their two sons. Their genuine kindness and warmth was undeniable from the entire family and we felt so welcome and at home. We had a wonderful dinner, discussions about life and even played some tango related games!

The view of the falls were fabulous, incredible view of the devils throat. A lot smaller park than that of the Argentina side, but worth the visit.

This was our favorite tour in Iguazu! Our two wonderful guides were encyclopedias of knowledge, with an incredible passion, love and insight into the local birds and nature. We were lucky enough to see a plethora of incredible birds, from the woodpecker to the turkey vulture. We saw the tracks of a panther and the Jaguar and the Anteater, which was incredible. I would recommend this trip to all visiting Iguazu.

Lots of fun! The water was beautiful and warm, the view of the falls was fabulous, plus we saw some capybara and crocodiles.

AMAZING!!!!! This was a great tour. Our guide was very kind and knowledgeable of all of the local nature we were experiencing. The falls are so beautiful and we had a wonderful time.

Rosa and her son Sylvestre were kind and welcoming! we had a lovely time picking oranges and making juice, chasing and feeding the chickens and enjoying the beautiful mountain views. We had a wonderful time exploring and hiking in the local area, watching the condor and vultures in their natural habitat.

This was an amazing experience! We love our wine and were excited for this experience. We commenced the day with a tasting of 3 beautiful wines from the Colome vineyard, one white (torrontes) and two Malbec reds. Having done the wine tasting in Buenos Aires and learning so much there, we could build on our tasting knowledge which was a lot of fun. Our sommelier was excellent, with fantastic knowledge and the wine was delicious. We then had a very cool tour of the Vineyard owners personal art collection by James Turrell which we were not expecting but was very cool! The lunch that followed was lovely, sitting in the sun overlooking the beautiful grounds of the Colome vineyard.

Sandra was an incredible tour guide, her in-depth knowledge of the history of Buenos Aires was impressive but fascinating! Her kind and warm soul was a delight to be around and we just had a wonderful day with Sandra. We started our morning with Sandra collecting us rom our hotel, with a quick subway ride to the the business district in SanTelmo where we learned all about the independence of Buenos Aires and the sad but fascinating history of the city. We visited the Pink building, the cathedral, the Mayo plaza and strolled the historical streets of San Telmo. We then proceeded by bus to La Boca, a beautifully colourful area by the dock. Here we learned about the history of La Boca along with the life of Maradona and Eva Perón. We returned to Palermo by bus where Sandra dropped us to the Botanical Gardens where we continued our day solo.

We attended the tango show and dinner following a wine tasting next door. The dinner was ok, but the staff were so lovely and the tango show was amazing! A great experience overall!

This was a fun evening! Our sommelier clearly knew his wines, we learned so much while enjoying the beautiful Malbec from Patagonia, to the torrentes of Cafayate. We would highly recommend this wine tasting experience!

Beno, was a fantastic host, her bubbly nature and kindness was palpable from the second we met her. We were taken around Buenos Aires for 4hrs by bike, from the obelisk to the beautiful rose gardens in Palermo. Her knowledge and love for her job was very apparent and we had a wonderful first day in Buenos Aires with Beno.

Wonderful location!

We had the best room!

Unfortunately we did not get to stay at this hotel, but if it was like any of the others, weather was the reason but they found us a great alternative!

The whale watching was one of the highlights of the trip. We got to see whales up close, which was a fantastic experience.

The tour was fascinating. We saw seals and got to touch a piece of iceberg that's thousands of years old. However, it was also a stark reminder of global warming.

Snowmobiling on the glacier was an unforgettable experience. Being from Wisconsin, snowmobiling isn't new, but doing it on a glacier was thrilling!

The Vok Baths were a great place to unwind. At first, I was hesitant due to fatigue, but it turned out to be the perfect way to relax.

Great hotel, comfortable rooms, excellent location. The hotel restaurant is excellent!

We loved this hotel. A peaceful refuge in a beauty setting. The service is excellent, as is the food. We would definitely return!

Beautiful hotel! The photos don’t do it justice. The staff was exceptional. We worked definitely return.

Average corporate hotel.

Beautiful hotel, comfortable rooms, excellent service.

The Traditional Tea Ceremony was one of the highlights of the trip. We really enjoyed learning about the culture and the matcha was delicious.

The visit to Chiku Chiku Cafe was fun, but the hedgehogs could have been more alert.

The Sumo Training Visit was a unique experience and it was nice to learn about the culture.

The food tour in Nakameguro was great. We enjoyed trying different types of food and our guide, Stephanie, was super helpful despite a minor miscommunication about timing.

The Mt. Fuji and Hakone Tour was enjoyable, although we only saw the top of Mt. Fuji due to cloud cover.

The visit to Shin Takamatsu's buildings was interesting and we enjoyed seeing his work.

We loved it but the 2.5 hour walk to Todai-Ji was too much, especially in the rain. Would have preferred a more direct route.

Our greeter was very kind and helpful and helped us secure our JR pass and pocket Wi-Fi. Our driver was a little disappointing. We arrived in heavy rain due to the typhoon. He drove quite aggressively in the rain, and then dropped us in the pouring rain when we were not sure which was our AirBNB. Just put our luggage out on the street and drove off. It would have been really helpful if he could have helped us read the Japanese numbers and signage.

We enjoyed having our JR pass. I wish that I would have ordered it myself online so that I could have made seating reservations online. That’s the only drawback.
