There was one slip up regarding a driver showing up very late to pick us up from our hotel, but it was not at all Cami’s fault or the hotel’s, and she was very quick to reach out to the company who dispatched the driver. I was very hesitant at first because I had never used this service. However, the overall experience was incredible and I would highly recommend both a visit to the Philippines, as well as Kim Kim’s services.

This was my first trip using Kimkim. I was unsure of how to book a successful trip to Peru from Los Angeles. I was very quickly contacted by Jessica who worked with me for a couple of months to hammer out a wonderful itinerary. This included several changes to dates and travelers but there were never any problems with updating the arrangements.

I would like to be clear that this trip was absolutely amazing. Everything Jessica booked for us was wonderful. We had great accommodations and knowledgible and fun tour guides throughout the trip with all of our transfers and driving handled. (We did need to book our own air travel but Jessica was very up front about that so it was no problem).

We even had some problems come up (a strike in Peru that would limit road travel) and Kimkim hopped on it to make sure our days in Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu went well. This was Kristy who jumped in and got us moved to a hotel that would not disrupt our trip. Even better, that day we took a fairly exclusive alternate tour which was still super fun and interesting. Kimkim's communication and initiative made that possible and we are very appreciative.

I would recommend this group again and again. It made for a fun and painless trip that was truly memorable.

El Albergue Ollantaytambo Boutique Hotel
Cusco

This is a very nice hotel with great rooms and a great vibe. It's attached to a farm where they grow a lot of their own food, roast their own coffee, and distill their own booze - and you should definitely go check that out. We very much enjoyed staying here. I need to take one star off the review only because it is located essentially in the train station. This makes it extremely convenient to travel up towards Machu Picchu (which is great!) but we had two issues: 1) the trains make a lot of noise - not enough to keep us awake but enough to wake us up once or twice, and 2) one night there were a lot (a literal mass) of people trying to board the last trains and this made it difficult to get to the hotel. I should note that #2 was likely due to a strike planned for the next day, so is likely rare, but I don't know. Personally, I would still suggest staying here but these are things that might annoy some travelers.

Very cool hotel with a nice vice and friendly staff.

The final itinerary was terrific. But, alas, the day before we arrived there were torrential rains and flooding that knocked our bridges and highways, so our journey to Bergen on the railroad was cancelled. Flights were already fully booked, but Maria offered the option of renting a car, or staying in Oslo for a longer period. As a Californian, driving was not appealing, so we opted to stay in Oslo for a full week. What a great choice! We had an absolutely wonderful time, and while we hope to come back to see Bergen and points north, this really couldn't have been a more splendid trip. While in-country Fenne and Meree provided amazing on the ground support, responding almost instantly to our questions and helping us roll with the punches. Also, having missed the Bergen portion of our trip, Meree was able to refund us the costs associated with that component. Above and beyond!

We had a very early flight, so we chose to spend the night here to make it a bit easier. Great choice! The hotel is lovely. A very good business hotel, with terrific service. The covered walk to the terminal took all of 2 minutes. That extra hour or so of sleep that morning was a life-saver.

Clarion Hotel The Hub
Oslo

The rooms are fine, but small. It seemed to be very busy, and not quite up to handling the volume. The line at check-in took about 30 minutes. Once we were assigned a room, we entered it and found it was already occupied. Yikes. After another wait at reception, we were assigned a second room, for which the key did not work. Next, the third room was also occupied, and the occupants were quite distressed about it. Finally, after talking to a manager who assured us that we would be upgraded, we got a room that was vacant (!!!), clean, but not an upgrade. Didn't really care, but why promise an upgrade and not come through? The location is quite central, and an easy 5 minute walk from Central Station. The bars and common areas are very nice, if a bit crowded. All of the personnel were friendly, helpful, and empathetic. The issues that we had were systems issues, not people issues. And besides, Oslo is such a charming and wonderful city, who really cares about such trivial matters?

I am not sure we would climb Mt Batur again (at 3am), though it was beautiful to watch the sunrise (bring 2 jackets!). Nusa Penida was also spectacular for snorkeling.

He shared so much with us about Morocco's history and culture and knew so much about each region we traveled through. His enthusiasm for his country was contagious and he authentically shared so much wonderful information. He took us to a "bar b q" restaurant on the side of a road in a random small town that was incredible! Our 3-day journey from Marrakech to Ait Benhaddou to Merzouga to Fez (I learned of this itinerary from another Kimkim review) was long with a lot of hours in the car, but it was worth it and the best way to see a lot of Morocco. Hamid made it all worthwhile and enjoyable. I hope to book more trips with Kimkin in the future! Many thanks for such a memorable experience.

This was one of our favorite activities. While it is a tourist activity, it provided us a rare glimpse at the amount of work of feeding and taking care of these beautiful creatures in a way that felt very authentic. We started by driving on the back of a truck to a farm to cut down with machetes the plants to feed the elephants, carrying the food back, cutting it into pieces and feeding the elephants. We also made rice balls to feed them additional vitamins. We made natural sponge and soaps for the bath from the trunk of a tree. We hightly recommend this activity for a humane and authentic way to interact with elephants and help their caretakers.

Great hike, fantastic views at the top. Very crowded. We went at around 2 pm and I think that was one of the best times to go from a crowd standpoint.

We couldn’t take our eyes off the fantastic scenery during the train ride from Bergen to Oslo. The Kimkim team also had backups during the weekend when our main planner was on vacation and that interaction was very pleasant and easy.
Norway is a great destination to travel not only because of its natural beauty but also because of the people! Will be planning Lofoten Islands soon :) The only thing that did not go according to plan was the walking tour of Oslo when there was historic rain one day that disrupted train schedules and the guide couldn’t make it on time. We were promised the refund for that. All in all, great experience and a definite bucket list for those who love nature!

The trip was amazing. Booking with Kimkim was very easy. Once we got paired with our local specialist, Ashley, she started the process. She asked about the type of experience we wanted to have (city only vs city and nature) and places we would like to visit in particular. We selected city and nature and gave her a few names of places. We also agreed on a luxury package. 7 days 3 nights in Hanoi/ha long bay and 3 nights in Saigon.
She went right to work and produced a detailed itinerary draft. From there we went back and forth adding and changing things. Kudos for your patience Ashley! There were 4 of us chiming in. You handled it like a true pro and came up with the perfect itinerary. Ashley even coordinated reservations to restaurants we wanted to dine at at the last minute. We dined at Tam vi in Hanoi and Anna Saigon in Saigon. Both Michelin stars restaurants.
Our tour guides Vietnam were amazing: Sum (pardon my spelling) in Hanoi was awesome. He made sure we were safe and accounted for at all times. Showed us everything we wanted to see, Ho Chi Minh mausoleum, took us to train street. We were there on a Saturday night and he took us around the city to check out the night life. It was amazing! The street food tour was GREAT! We tried several
Dishes at local eateries, seating on the streets among locals. Accommodation in Hanoi: the peridot hotel and the capella cruise for one night at ha long bay. The staff in both places was truly amazing. So so helpful! Both places were immaculate clean.
Flight to Saigon was also included in our package. The accommodation was the Myst Dong Khoi hotel, located in an excellent area. Walking distance to bars and fun things to do on our down time. the hotel was great super clean and the staff was incredibly helpful. Rooms were spacious which was great because we elected to room in pairs, so we got two double bed rooms for the 4 of us. Our tour guide was Long (again selling is off sorry) very knowledgeable guide. He answered the million questions we had regarding the places we visited and the country itself. We visited the cu chi Viet Cong tunnels ( we even crawled through them). We also check out the independence place and took a day trip to the Mekong Delta.
All transport was private only for the 4 of us. Comfortable and clean vehicle. In both cities we had the same the same drivers (one in each city) for the days we were there which was nice and reassuring.
The experience was truly one of a kind and I feel we were taken care of at every turn. Ashley checked in on us constantly which was also very reassuring.

I loved the end result of the climbing! That sunrise was glorious! The hiking was brutal 😂 as I am no hiker but it was well worth it. Our guide was Kutu a 24 year old local girl. She was great she allowed us as many breaks we needed without judging 😂. It took us a little over 2 hours (other people finish it in less time) and we made it with time to spare and waited for the sunset.

Our favorite town was Stykkisholmur, and we loved the gorgeous landscapes we drove through to get there. The Folklore Tour was an amazing addition to our time in Reykjavik, and we really felt like we got a good feel for the South Coast and western Iceland. Terry did a wonderful job incorporating the sights we wanted to visit and keeping us within budget for the trip. She made sure we received relevant information about clothing and food in Iceland as well as the detailed itinerary for the trip in a timely manner. We would absolutely use KimKim again!

I had a great time on the Lava Tunnel Tour. It was really cool and informative. The guide took us through three different levels in the tunnel and gave us a history of how it was created by volcanoes. The guide also made sure to shine his light on different areas so that we could take pictures. It was fun, a bit damp, but nothing too crazy. I'm glad we were able to add this to our itinerary.
