Kimkim Trip Reviews

Love Nafplio and loved this hotel. Although admittedly, I was a little worried when we got there and saw all the stairs leading up to our room (which fortunately was on the first floor and not the second floor). The restaurant and the people who work at the hotel and restaurant were both great. There is a free public parking lot across the street and if it is full, there is a much larger parking lot (I think t is actually two parts of the same one) down the street. So you will need to walk a short way with your stuff, but it isn't too bad.

This is a very standard business hotel. The rooms are nice and clean but nothing special. But we had two bedrooms, which was fabulous for giving us some space. Although it isn't right in the middle of the action, the pedestrian area is only about a five minute walk away and the harbor slightly further.

"Sweet Home" is a really perfect name for this hotel. The breakfast area decor is adorable (and the food is great), the rooms are comfortable, and the staff are very nice and helpful. The hotel is located on a very narrow street which can be a little nerve-wracking when you have a car and/or your car for hire is trying to get out, but it is also very central and it is easy to walk to things.

Excellent place to relax towards the end of a busy trip that has a swimming pool. The on-site restaurant has good food and a beautiful view.

That this hotel is close to the airport is great. But other than that, it is nothing special. One member of our group commented that it was too bad that that was going to be our last breakfast in Greece as all the other ones had been very good. And unfortunately, the noise is so bad that one of the members of our group only got a couple of hours of sleep.

This place is out of this world. Because it is in a pedestrian area, you'll likely need a driver and/or hotel staff to help you with your things, but the location cannot be beat (so much in walking distance!), our room was amazing, and the staff was phenomenal. Two people in our group feel ill and they were extremely helpful and accommodating in helping us access medical care, get food when we couldn't leave because of a sick kid, and ultimately getting.a slightly late check-out as we recovered. Our room was easiest the largest hotel room that I have ever seen in Europe with a beautiful balcony and view. We hope to return to Chania and will definitely be staying here.

This hotel was so cute. And our "room" (it was actually an apartment) was huge with two couch/beds for our kids, a bedroom for the adults, and a kitchen. It was a little weird driving into the town because it is pretty deserted, but the hotel was more than cute enough to make up for that.

This is a gorgeous site and our guide was great.

This was.a very cool sight to see. I had slightly mixed feelings because Olympia is pretty remote and there isn't anything else in the area, but I'm glad we went.

How had I never heard of Nafplio before? This place is posh without being snobby and a place we absolutely can't wait to return to. Which is sort of funny considering that it was not on our radar at all before we got there and we assumed it was just a necessary stopping place because of where we wanted to go and the amount of driving we wanted to do in a day. The town is beautiful and very walkable. I don't love the public parking situation because it can be hard to find a spot, but at the end of the day, it was worth it.

This was our reason for going to Crete and although it wasn't anyone's top memory at the end of the trip, it was one of the things that we were most excited about in the ~12 months since we started planning the trip. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful and it was a good tour.

We enjoyed this. Standing inside the tomb mound, in particular, was awe-inspiring. But while the adults would have appreciated the larger ruins if it was just us, with kids who are easily distracted and prone to falling, we were very much on edge and paying more attention to them than the guide.

Lots of cool stuff to see. The theater is amazing, but there is more to the site than just that and we enjoyed learning about how medicine, sport, and the arts all fit together.

This was a lot of fun. We had already spent a couple days in Athens by the time we did it so I was a little worried that there would be too much overlap, but there was hardly any. It was nice that most of it was focused on the modern Athens, but there was still some historical and/or Ancient Greek stuff mixed in.

We ended up not doing this activity because half of our group was sick.

You can't go to Athens and not go to the Acropolis. While it wasn't the highlight of our trip, we enjoyed it and we enjoyed our guide.

Of all of the ruins we saw, these were the best. And the view from the Taverna where we ate dinner before going to the temple was incredible.

The drive was nice and relaxing and it was nice to have someone else drive us! Plus, since we had had the driver a couple days earlier, we already knew her and liked her.

This beach should be on everybody's list of things to do in Chania. The only thing I wish is that we'd had more time there.

Was such a cool experience! Everyone should stay here

Janet was the best guide!!

We loved this cottage stay - unfortunately for us it was only for one night. It truly has motivated us to come back here for a longer stay. The cottage was exceptionally clean and spacious. The restaurant had excellent food and the village is charming!

This is very, very, very nice inn. An old building with character. The staff are super friendly. We had a great time. My daughter LOVED the room we stayed inn -- it really brought out nautical and pirate themes to our dreams! The bathroom was quite newly renovated and nice. The staff was great and extremely friendly. This was a very memorable stay and I will say that I see myself coming to Dartmouth again in my life and I will stay at Bayards Cove Inn!!!

Overall, this was a great stay. The evening views at dinner time looking at the ocean cannot be beat. The staff very very friendly and accomodating.

Excellent service. The staff were very friendly and we enjoyed our stay here. If (when!) I am back in London - I will be coming to Bloomsbury!!

It was a nice sunny day when we visited. The gardens are beautiful. The views are inspiring and the time we spent on St. Michael's mount was great!

After having this guided tour I feel this is the only way to visit a museum!! We met with Alan who is a PhD and has a keen interest and knowledge in early civilizations. The pace was good and we were all engaged the whole time. My 9-year old daughter had a great time and really felt that seeing and hearing the things she did complimented some of the things she has learnt about early civilizations. Truly a great experience!!

Great location. Rooms are simple and have small kitchenette. Includes a nice breakfast brought to your room. There is no elevator. We were on the top floor and it was a haul up 4 flights. Just be prepared for that.

Great location. Great room. Great views. Great pool. Food and beverage situation was disappointing. Food was terrible and though they had a decent wine list, none were available. Was strange. Do not recommend a meal there. Excellent restaurants within an easy walk.

Great location 5 minutes away from the center of Old Town so very quiet but convenient. Restaurant is excellent.

Highlight of our 2 weeks in South Island.

This is a smaller resort, which we really prefer. It is right on the ocean and we had a lovely "tree house” room. It was air conditioned and a very nice room. The staff were amazing and so accommodating. All our guides were great and we got to see a ton of birds and had some incredible snorkeling adventures. We swam with Eagle Rays and Sea Turtles and lots of beautiful fish. It was so much fun. We had all our meals included in our package. They serve very large portions - they don’t want anyone to go hungry. Fortunately, you can order 1/2 portions. We had an amazing time here and would love to come back some day.

This is a more rustic retreat. The rooms are not air conditioned, but they do have very good fans. When we went it was quite humid and hot, but we didn’t mind it too much. We were out doing things during the day and it cooled down a little at night. It was a beautiful setting and we really enjoyed our stay at Blancaneaux Lodge. The staff are so very nice and do everything they can to make your stay wonderful. This is a much smaller retreat which is what we really enjoy. They have their own farm with fresh eggs and produce. The food was very good. There were a number of families here and we really enjoyed connecting with the other guests as well. It was such a lovely place.

If you haven’t and even if you have visited a Mayan ruin before this is a must. Our guide was great and very knowledgeable and we climbed all the way to the top. It was worth the climb for the view. It’s really interesting learning about the Mayan culture and seeing the temples and ruins.

This was a surprisingly wonderful experience. Our guide was terrific and he canoed us a long way into the cave with all this history. He was very knowledgeable and we were very lucky to be the only ones there at this time. We were told that rarely happens. I don’t know that it would have been very enjoyable if it was crowded - part of what made it so nice was that we were alone and could take our time looking at the artifacts and learn about what was found inside this cave. We really enjoyed this adventure.

You really must at least go snorkeling here. The reef is teaming with ocean life and it was so beautiful. Our guides were really great and knowledgeable. We had such a great time snorkeling.

Great location and facilities. The spa was amazing.

The location of this hotel is excellent - literally steps from the main shopping and dining streets of Santorini, so no car is necessary. The staff was very helpful and assisted with finding dinner options as well as anything else we needed. Beautiful small pool area where you can also enjoy the views as well as hear the nearby historic church bells. Delicious breakfast served alfresco on the patio.

This place is beyond words. Personalized and always attentive service from the moment we arrived - the staff truly make it their jobs to assure the guests are happy and well taken care of. And the view from our balcony and of course from the private beach with ultra-comfy beach chairs was amazing. Breakfast and beach-side food/drink service were delicious. Perfection all around.

Great location, walkable to Plaka, the Parthenon, and many other historical attractions. Amazing rooftop bar with view of the Parthenon.

Beautiful views. Very swanky 1960s vibe. Nice pool and delicious breakfast.

This view was beyond expectation, both from our room and from the mountainside pool area. Walkable to the quaint village area, which was an added bonus.

This was the perfect way to end our trip! Gorgeous views along the entire cruise, with the option for swimming or just lounging onboard. The drinks flowed freely and the BBQ dinner rivaled some of the best restaurant dinners we had in Greece! Still thinking about that amazing shrimp saganaki!!

Our favorite location from this trip!

Demetra was an amazing tour guide - she is an actual archaeologist, and was able to provide the perfect blend of detailed history and entertaining stories. George our driver was masterful in navigating the small streets and long roads - he made the trip extra enjoyable as well.

Wonderful staff and accommodations. Good location to walk to various places in the city.

Wonderful and helpful staff and a breathtaking view at this location. Absolutely stunning! The city bus stop at the resort that went to old town was very convenient.

Beautiful resort and wonderful staff. The children loved the pool and slide.

Telling all of our friends about this amazing family hotel!

Our guide was lovely and very relatable! She also gave us some great recommendations for the remaining days of our trip!

The location was what I was looking for and the food was divine! The rooms and the grounds were beautiful.

Loved this hotel!! Great rooftop terrace to see the city, excellent breakfast, free snacks in the afternoon, and very clean and neat!

The guide was super nice, friendly, adaptable, and very accommodating. He took me to amazing places with incredible views of the city of Naples. I highly recommend his services for anyone wanting to discover hidden gems from the city of Naples.

We did the tour led by the grown son. It was fun to hear about the creation of the business and then try the different ciders. We ended up making a reservation for dinner which was amazing (set menu with a theme and a vegetarian optio ) Beautiful views and delicious food and cider

Thor was a fascinating guide and we loved being on the boat with him. It was pretty magical to be on the water in the fjords. Thor pointed out places he had been as a child - so interesting to hear about the history from someone who has lived it. We loved this experience!

John grew up in Bergen and provided a very fun and engaging walking tour through the city. It was very much tailored to our interests. And we got to see the building where he grew up. Wonderful guide!

Looks a bit dated and could be a bit neater, but all in all OK. Few parking spaces a short distance away, so we had to go a long way with the luggage.

Clean. Spacious for 2 persons, but a bit tight for 4 persons. (sofabed). Large kitchen but with minimal crockery and utensils

Convenient location close to the airport. Rooms are spacious and clean. Excellent breakfast and food at he Moxies's restaurant.

A smooth hand fine drive with nice views.

Wonderful stay in Saigon! The rooftop bar and pool are great.

This resort is more like a 2 star than a 5 star. Although the property is beautiful, the room felt a bit dated. The beds were really comfortable though. Guests were loud at all hours in the hallways even though there were signs indicating that people should be quiet. The food was just OK.

The Captains suite on board is beautiful. This is elegance all the way. The staff are engaging and the entire experience was top notch. The upgrade to the suite is worth it for the balcony alone, but the room itself was gorgeous. We were given a lovely fruit bowl and complementary bottle of wine.

This lovely hotel is just outside of Sapa City (4 minute taxi). It was peaceful with amazing views. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We are at the restaurant three times as the food was incredible!
