Kimkim Trip Reviews

Erica and the whole kimkim team did a fantastic job of planning our trip to Greece. We had several stops on the itinerary, with drivers, tours, and multiple hotels. We did not have a single hiccup. Having all of the info in the kimkim app was invaluable. We always knew exactly where we needed to be, and who to contact. Every driver made us feel like great friends by the end of the rides. The hotels were lovely, with helpful staff, delicious breakfasts, and suggestions for things to do. Everyone let us practice our Greek with them, which we appreciated. The whole trip felt like one long highlight, but two really stand out: the Majo Hotel in Naxos is incredible. Ioanna and her son have created a slice of heaven, with their beautiful rooms, private pools, and homemade breakfasts. It's a place I would return to again and again. Our other highlight was Solon and Maria from Hello Thessaloniki tours. Their hospitality and knowledge of the city perfectly kicked off our trip. We could have spent all day with them learning and laughing. Overall, it was an amazing vacation. Thank you so much to Erica, Lea and Summer for taking care of us so we could relax and enjoy our trip!

Hotel Reviews

Azure Villa Santorini

Santorini

I was not satisfied with the Azure Villa Santorini. While it was spacious, it had issues like cockroaches in the kitchen, mildew and mold in the bathrooms, and a water leak. For the cost, it was not a pleasant stay. It also didn't serve breakfast, which was something we missed.

Athenian Riviera

Vouliagmeni

The Athenian Riviera was a wonderful stay. Although we only had one night there, it was a beautiful place with friendly staff and a nice restaurant area.

Athens Manor Houses

Athens Manor Houses were great. The accommodations were lovely, making our stay in Athens very enjoyable.

The Sunset Caldera Catamaran Cruise was wonderful. We had a great crew and pilot. It definitely made the experience amazing.

Private Morning Old Town Walk with Museum, Castle & Portara

Naxos

We did a tour in Naxos that we really liked. It was a great experience exploring the Old Town with the museum, castle, and Portara. Really enjoyable.

Private Classic Sightseeing Tour of Thessaloniki

Thessaloniki

The Private Classic Sightseeing Tour of Thessaloniki with Hello, Thessaloniki and Maria was fantastic. We had the greatest time ever learning and touring with them, and could have easily spent more days doing so.

Overall, the booking experience was seamless as always. Tiago, our local specialist did an outstanding job organizing all the elements of the trip, which was no small feat considering we were a large group of 17 people across 4 families. During the booking process, Tiago was on top of all the timings, made sure we were aware of those so that we were able to finalize our key hotel locations. He was also flexible in changing our arrangements e.g. our family were supposed to leave a couple of days early, but then decided to stay longer, which he was quickly able to accommodate.

During the trip, Tiago was excellent in coordinating all our visits - across Tile Painting, to connecting us with a Surfing Lessons company, to the Fado music, to cooking classes etc. He was also a wealth of knowledge on Portuguese history, which we found extremely valuable and interesting. It kept the bus ride from Cascais to the Duoro valley, and then from there to Porto a lot of fun.

Out other local guide in Cascais - Gustav - was also great. He was funny, authentic, passionate and made our stay there a lot of fun. The highlight were the visits to Praia das Azenhas do Mar, and then the lunch at a local seafood place which was out of this world!

The hotel locations (The Albatroz in Cascais and Quinta del Vacaria) were outstanding! The Infante Sagres in Porto was also nice, but the hotel rooms had some issues (e.g. there was water leaking from an AC vent over our toliet), but nothing big to spoil the experience. The food tour in Porto was another highlight!

Overall, we had great time and Tiago played a huge role in enabling that for us. We would highly recommend folks to consider Kimkim and Tiago for your next Portugal trup.

Me and my family had an amazing time. My favorite person during our trip was Mrs. Anita. She did an amazing job showing us around. It was like she was visiting Thailand as well but knew about Thailand already. Our stay was amazing. Overall it was the best experience ever.

Thanks to Erica at KimKim, our trip to Greece was absolutely AMAZING!! It would take me days to fully describe all the highlights of our 14 day trip, but here are just a few. I enjoyed the “Off the beaten path” excursions as they provided the opportunity to see and learn about Greek island history and culture. We did, unfortunately, miss a walking tour in Naxos b/c gps misguided us, but I believe we were compensated. The boating and wine tour excursions were very enjoyable. We found the local wines to be outstanding. Both excursions are a Must-Do! Our accommodations exceeded our expectations as did the service and friendly staff. Each hotel was ideally located and within walking distance to beautiful cities, towns and harbors. Everything about our trip was beyond anything we could have hoped for, and I would highly recommend Erica and KimKim to friends and family wishing to plan the trip of a lifetime! Special thanks to our favorite tour guides: Demetrius, Sandra, Elle, Adonis.

We had a wonderful time on our trip to Norway. The hotels were excellent (although in some cases a bit noisy) and the various transfers all worked out well. We particularly enjoyed the walking tour guide in Oslo (Marja), the train to Flam, the activities from Aurland, the fjord excursion from Alesund, and the Grieg concert in Bergen. However, there were a few things that, in retrospect, could have been changed:

1. We were under the impression that the Oslo dinner cruise would include views of the fjords, but it did not go very far away from the port, so we would not have taken that cruise.

2. The food and culture tour in Bergen did not offer enough of either category, so we would not have taken that tour.

3. Although we did enjoy the cable car ride, we wound up spending too much down time in Andalsnes, waiting for the bus to Dombas.

4. Had we known that almost all retail establishments and museums in Trondheim are closed on Sunday, we would have tried to alter our itinerary so that we would have spent an extra day in that city.

Tania was so very efficient and made great recommendations for activities and accommodation. She always replied quickly to any questions we had . We would certainly recommend her for travel advice

Monika helped our family with a once in a lifetime trip to New Zealand and Fiji. After sharing activities we were interested in, she was able to put together an itinerary for us to approve. If we wanted to change anything, she was very responsive, made changes, and fulfilled our wishes. She planned all elements of transportation to and from all venues, making transitions easy and without stress. We didn’t have any glitches and had an amazing time in New Zealand. Our accommodation s and trip to Fiji lived up to our expectations. Her suggestion to stay at a quiet island resort was just what we needed. We ended our vacation in such a relaxing and beautiful place that helped us replenish our energy and be ready to head back to reality. Thank you for such an amazing trip!

Cory planned a seamless trip for us and was available to fix any hiccups along the way. We had a short tour of three cities and we feel we saw the best highlights of all three. The information given beforehand was helpful setting up the best plans. I will use this service again!

Appreciated that we were taken care of every step of the journey, with immediate replies from Bruno when we had questions.

Overall we had a nice trip,

We were only disappointed by the room grades in some of the stays, they seemed secondary to what was available.
A few times when I asked to upgrade to better room the hotel staff told me this was not doable because of the booking grade that was made by Kimkim?

Mar was pretty much non communicative once the payment for the trip was made, and she never responded to my last message while on the trip?
Jacob on the other hand did an outstanding job at customer service and always responsive and available!

The first hotel drive from Oslo was extremely long (8 hours, 10 with rest stops and fueling ) I feel should be shortened since it was just driving not very scenic at all, or maybe train to Bergen from Oslo to begin the road trip would be a lot more relaxing ? ( electric vehicle charging proved to extremely difficult to get to work with American credit cards until finally the car rental company explained the situation) might want to alert your staff?

The silent cruise trip in Oslo was boring and the food quality was not great, I would eliminate this unless you are looking for a senior night out?

On the positive side overall hotel choices and locations were outstanding!

The itinerary itself was very nice and made for a wonderful trip

Thank you for the trip and we will give Kimkim another try for a upcoming trip I’ll just be more specific about the room locations.

My family took an 11-day trip to Thailand. The planning and execution were excellent. The communication from Bastien and Elizabeth was superb - very attentive, clear and reliable. They did a nice job tailoring the trip to our preferences, and, for the most part, the excursions and activities were high quality.

So happy with our experience in Ireland! With so many potential options and itineraries it was so helpful to have local recommendations and options to consider. I even threw a curveball when I wanted to focus our trip in the west but adjusted my trip to catch the All Ireland final in Dublin, but the itinerary was adjusted to make it happen. Definitely recommend Achill Island and a hike in Connemara National Park! Locations of all our lodging were great and the local guide’s phone app provided many options to visit with driving directions and access to bookings, making getting around so much easier. Finally, Nenad checked in with me regularly to see if there were any questions or challenges so I knew I could always get support when I needed. I’d recommend the experience to anyone!

Hotel Reviews

The Galmont Hotel & Spa

Galway

The Galmont Hotel & Spa had a fabulous location and was great for our itinerary in Galway. However, it was quite loud at night due to a live music pub nearby. Though we couldn't enjoy the pub since my son was underage, we could hear the music just fine in our room. Despite the noise, the hotel itself was decent, and the staff were very accommodating.

Ashling Hotel Dublin

Dublin

The Ashling Hotel Dublin was our top pick during the trip. Its location was outstanding, being near a major transportation hub which was perfect for our travel needs. The breakfast was great, the beds were exceptionally comfortable, and the staff was very welcoming and attentive. Overall, we had a fantastic experience here.

Explore Achill Island

Ireland

Exploring Achill Island was an unexpected delight! I didn't know much about it beforehand, but it quickly became one of our favorites. The island's beauty was breathtaking, and I wish we had more time to spend there. It's a spot I'd highly recommend to anyone visiting that area.

I was looking for a memorable and economical Italy trip for our family of five (kids aged 16, 13, and 11) — all planned on a relatively short timeline during high season. Martina and Lorenzo from Authenticus Italy took all of that into thoughtful consideration and created a seamless, personalized itinerary that exceeded our expectations.

Every detail was well arranged — from smooth airport and hotel transfers to beautiful accommodations and great tours. Our hotel in Maiori was a standout — peaceful, scenic, and the perfect place to finish our trip.

The InRome cooking class was the highlight for our family — an air-conditioned kitchen on a scorching day in Rome, hands-on cooking, and a delicious shared meal. It created lasting family memories and is an experience I’ll seek out again in future travels.

The Pompeii and Vatican tours were excellent, while the Colosseum tour was our least favourite due to the large group size. Still, the overall experience was unforgettable. Having the logistics fully handled made it easy to relax and enjoy.

Highly recommend Martina and Lorenzo for a well-organized, meaningful, and family-friendly Italian adventure!

Hotel Club Due Torri

Maiori (SA)

This was the most memorable hotel of our trip, largely thanks to the incredible breakfast buffet overlooking the Amalfi Coast—it was absolutely stunning. The breakfast itself was extraordinary, featuring some of the best pastries we had during our stay in Italy. The room was simple but comfortable: two rooms, each with a queen-size bed, and one shared bathroom. Both rooms opened onto a beautiful terrace with breathtaking views of the coast. On our final night, we even had a front-row seat to a fireworks display from our terrace—an unforgettable experience. We especially want to thank the breakfast and dinner staff, who made us feel so welcome during our 4-day stay. Their warmth and hospitality truly stood out. A special shout-out to our favourite server, who not only provided excellent service but also shared great local tips—including recommending his favourite cake, Peccato di Gola, from Sal De Riso in Minori. It was absolutely worth the trip!

The room was the largest of our trip, with a master bedroom and ensuite, two additional bedrooms and a bathroom for the kids, plus a small kitchen. We especially appreciated the large fridge and freezer for storing snacks and drinks. Breakfast on the 7th floor had a huge variety of options, and everyone in the family found something they liked.

Alessandro was welcoming, knowledgeable, and great with both adults and kids. We made cacio e pepe, amatriciana, and homemade gelato (coffee and Nutella was the crowd favourite). Highly recommend this experience—fun, delicious, and memorable. Fingers crossed our cacio e pepe and gelato turn out just as good at home!

The excursions we went on, the wine tastings, the top notch hotels, the restaurant recommendations — all were excellent.

As long as other teams in different parts of the world would be as good as Joao, Diana, drivers Ricardo and Carlos…I would gladly return to Kim Kim and Across Portugal.

My daughter and I had a lot of fun on this trip. There were only a couple of things that we wish would’ve been different. Our flight arrived at 6 am and our check in to the hotel wasn’t until 3 pm. The Eiffel Tower tour was booked for the same day at 11:30 am, so that ended up being a very long and exhausting day for us, especially with the time difference. We really enjoyed the tour though, the guide was a lot of fun and very knowledgeable. Our favorite was the food tour we took in Montmartre. We got to eat some delicious food and learn a lot about the history of that area. The other thing that I was disappointed about was that it wasn’t made very clear to me that I was responsible to book tickets for a couple of the attractions, like the Palace of Versailles. It said self-guided, but I had other activities that were self-guided like the Louvre, where the tickets were provided, so that was a little confusing. I was overall satisfied with my experience, the hotel that we stayed at was well located, close to the Metro, and we were able to go everywhere we wanted to. It was definitely a trip we’ll remember for many years to come!
