Kimkim Trip Reviews

We loved everything about this hotel -- the wonderful staff, the location in the middle of town, comfort of the rooms, great breakfast.

The hotel itself is very nice. I'd prefer to be in a more bustling walkable neighborhood but for one night it was fine.

It was beautiful and informative ... and just long enough.

It was nice to get out and ride. The weather was pretty bad (fog and rain) so it is kind of hard to evaluate. I realize kimkim can't control the weather! I think it would be amazing on a clearer, drier day.

It's a lot to do immediately upon arrival after a flight but our guide and driver were great and it was nice to get a feel for the city.

Had a very accomplished driver who got us where we needed to go. The main attraction in Burgos is the beautiful Gothic cathedral which is preeminent in Spain and Europe. The bus had to drop us off a few blocks away from the cathedral. Definitely worth the visit but not necessary to spend more than a few hours in Burgos.

Adur was an excellent and memorable tour guide. He was an interesting conversationalist, well-versed in the area, and fun to spend the day with. He helped us make the most of a rainy day in San Sebastián, making the area come alive with his anecdotes and enthusiasm. We ate tasty pintxos at 2 fun restaurants as we walked through San Sebastián and then enjoyed a leisurely drive along the beautiful coast back to Bilbao. On the way back we stopped for a visit to the charming town of Getaria.

On time and professional!

Experience included a couple hour boat-ride through several massive lagoons. Scenery was gorgeous, great for bird-watchers. Our favorite was the 30 minute float through the "lazy river" (canal). Our favorite activity of the whole trip! It was beautiful, peaceful, crystal clear water. The guides were informative about the reserve. I was hoping to see a little more wildlife but mid-day, the most you will likely see are birds. My family of 6 from the US (with 4 teens/young adults) absolutely loved it.

The staff was great and very helpful.

Perfect location and the staff was amazing! The only downside was being on the 2nd floor, which had a very long elevator wait. Overall it was my favorite stay.

The staff was lovely and very helpful. They made sure we had everything we needed.

With the way the city has been rebuilt, it was nice to have someone be able to explain the history of Cádiz even dating back to prior to the tsunami. Our guide did a great job showing and explaining the main points of the city and then provided recommendations for the rest of the day.

We saw so much of the city in such a short tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared a great enthusiasm for history.

Perfect for food lovers and wine lovers! The guide was very knowledgeable about what she was sharing with us.

This is something to see and I’m so glad we did so with a guide! It was an incredible experience!

So much fun!! Our guide gave us a great experience here and we loved every second of it! Once we were done with the tour, we received a list of restaurants and a suggested walking tour of the town. We had a great time!

The weather worked out perfect for it to not be too hot for this hike. The hike itself was beautiful and pretty easy overall. This was a unique experience that I’m glad we got to participate in.

This was the perfect combination of food and history. Our guide really knew what she was talking about. One of my favorite experiences of the trip.

One of my favorite things! So much history in this city and our guide did a great job of making sure we heard and understood as much as possible. The added bonus of seeing a couple of the last artisanal shops with people hand crafting products was really cool!

The perfect amount of walking and history for our first tour. Was a bit rushed, but was overall a great experience!

Amazing, and great guide!

So amazing, and best rye bread we had the whole week, hands down!

Very beautiful hotel. The staff is wonderful here also. Super clean hotel, rooms are small but not uncomfortable by any means. Great location -- short walk to many cafes and shopping. Would stay here again.

Beautiful. Just beautiful. Very old building that is updated to common comforts. I can not express enough how beautiful it is. Family run and the staff were wonderful. Great location short walk into city center and near all the shopping, cafes and sites. Highly recommend.

Beautiful older hotel. Absolutely gorgeous. Good location. Staff was great. Nice big hotel room and bathroom --though the shower head was a hand held and no hook to hang up high on the shower wall so you had to hold it. Awkward but not a huge deal. Would absolutely stay here again.

Great area. Wonderful staff. Very small hotel. Rooms are very small. Great area of Paris to explore.

Hotel was in a nice location to see the lake, but it was a longer walk to the city center for shopping. Hotel staff were nice and helpful after there was a miscommunication with luggage. Rooms were nice and clean. Wonderful breakfast available. Nice pool available for use which the children enjoyed.

Beautiful hotel lobby and staff tried to be helpful. The check in process for our large family group was long and difficult compared to other hotels. While the rooms were nice, they were hot and did not cool down at night. I talked with staff about the air not going below 24.5 C, and was informed that is the best they could do.

Beautiful hotel, comfortable beds and nice staff.

Beautiful hotel in a good location. We were able to walk to areas of the city and local attractions easily. The rooms were great for families and the room with the rooftop balcony was very special. The front desk staff were very helpful. Breakfast was good and the facility was well taken care of.

Family friendly hotel that was able to accommodate our group of 18 (9 adults, 9 children). The hotel was clean and staff were helpful and kind.

We skipped this experience due to our preferences at the time. So, I cannot rate it.

Bellizona is a beautiful city with wonderful history. We did a walking tour of the city and saw some very beautiful, old buildings and learned about its history. Then we were able to go up to one of the Castles and explore it. There was a museum with a movie that was very interesting, even to the youngest in our group (6 years old). We did enjoy this experience.

We enjoyed our tour of Interlaken with our guide Nina. We went to the Woodpecker Woodshop and enjoyed the demonstration and shop there. It was lovely and cute. Then we went to a local dairy farm to see the happy cows and sampled the local cheese. It was a wonderful experience and the kids enjoyed it. We then went to the Funky Chocolate Club. We had a chocolate tasting and really enjoyed our time there. The chocolate and education received were top notch. I would also recommend this experience.

This was one of our favorite activities. The lake is beautiful and a lot of fun to explore in kayaks. The kayak guides, Ben, Ryan and Mika, were amazing with our family. They led us in games we played on the lake and were able to accommodate our different ability levels with ages from 6-76. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this activity to everyone!

We enjoyed seeing the waterfalls and the medieval village. We were at the village on a Sunday, so some of the shops were closed. The river was beautiful to see and the kids were able to wade in the water to have some fun.

Nice big room and bathroom. Very good location and nice breakfast. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good value.

We were on the top floor from what appears to be a transformed attic. No elevator, but we got help with luggage. The ceilings in the room were sloped on both sides so you really had to watch out to bump your head everywhere. No shower, no hot water. For Ireland, very weak breakfast

Nice large room and bathroom. Good breakfast. The front desk woman was not friendly or helpful. No elevator and no one to assist getting luggage up a flight and a half of stairs. The breakfast was good and the waiter was very friendly. Note: there isn't any dinner options at the hotel. You need to go to the sister hotel, where they provide transportation (about a 10 min drive). The meal and service is excellent but it is a prefix menu and it's pricey (about 100 pounds per person with drinks).

Nice hotel, good location. There were elevators but you still had to take stairs which defeated the purpose of having an elevator for luggage. Also, it wasn't obvious that there was a ramp to enter the hotel so we also took a flight of stairs with the luggage...and there wasn't anyone to help. Breakfast was good, with a made to order hot entree.

We aren't whisky drinkers but "when in Scotland" we really wanted to have a tour and not just a tasting. Our guide was excellent, the tour was really interesting, the facilities very nice and the tasting (which was the minor part of the excursion) was very nicely done. This is a boutique distillery and it was a curated experience, which we loved.

This is such a unique experience and it's really worth it. The man who owns the dogs was super nice and patient. He also had some "hairy coos" which was a bonus. We all really had fun.

It's a self guided excursion but well worth the visit. I've been to a lot of castles but nothing like Edinburgh. It's basically a city vs a single building.

Beautiful hotel with beautiful views. Not near Old Town but a much quieter place to stay. Found a couple lovely restaurants within walking distance and the Cave Bar nearby is super fun.

The wine was positively delicious and our tasting was just the two of us on their beautiful patio.

Location and views were amazing! Close to the dock, activities, hiking and biking trails, while maintaining a private feel. Breakfast was fantastic. We loved the lobby area. There was plenty of space to relax and enjoy the view. The gym on site was a plus. We also enjoyed our small balcony in our room. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable.

Excellent location! Close to transportation, activities. Lovely views. We enjoyed the indoor pool. It’s the only recreation on -site. It is super hot in the pool area though, so it is better for the winter time. Dinner at the restaurant was authentic Norwegian food, but small portions and limited menu.

The location was fantastic. Breakfast buffet was wonderful. But, the lack of air-conditioning, which is common, resulted in us having to open our hotel room windows to the very loud street noise. I would have liked to have had fans in each room for the summer when it is hot. I would have liked to have had a gym on the property, too.

We rented the e-bikes and we were glad we did. We could go further than regular mountain bikes would have allowed. As a result, we saw breathtaking waterfalls, the historic Otteren farm, and enjoyed a relaxing lunch in town. The process was easy. The bike quality was superb.

The equipment provided was fantastic. Made the trip very comfortable. We enjoyed our guide, Erwin’s stories, and the places he took us. It was very relaxing. However, we saw no wildlife as we had hoped. Contrary to what is advertised, it is not a high adrenaline tour. No waves, we didn’t get wet (it was not windy that day). Just a nice cruise on the water.

This small beautiful hotel has so much character and charm. It is located in the old town of Begur and we enjoyed the atmosphere and wandering through the small pedestrian streets. Lots of good food and affordable shopping. The walk to the fortress provided magnificent views of the coastal beaches. The children and grandchildren loved their time at the beaches and the beautiful Mediterranean water.

Lovely hotel in a great location. Excellent breakfast and areas to hang out in, and one of the best dinners I had on our vacation. Highly recommended,

I was not able to do all that the younger family members were but I was encouraged to come along and enjoyed the experience with some extra help from one of our guides. I so enjoyed seeing my children and grandchildren having this amazing experience and was glad that they enjoyed it so much.

Was not expecting this to be so special but it was interesting and fun and a great experience…. And very special,

This was the perfect way to end our time in Barcelona. The weather was perfect, the crew welcoming and the snacks and drinks were great. And the guitarist played so beautifully non stop … it was so relaxing and refreshing… the perfect way to end our time in Barcelona.

We enjoyed our time preparing several different dishes and then sitting down in a lovely setting for a delicious paella which we all helped prepare.

Beautiful location and wonderful views. Was sorry that Boys Choir was not performing when we visited.

Great guide! You really have to spend some time to take it all in.

The hotel was a bit old but the room was on the seventh floor with a view of the lake. The sunrise was amazing

Wonderful location in front of the train station and around the corner from the busy streets. The room was small and not the best but ok for one night

good hotel. Safe and clean. very good breakfast and the staff was friendly.

Wonderful hotel, just a few minutes from he main plaza. Amazing breakfast in the morning and extremely polite staff. The second two nights we got a view of Cusco and it was beautiful

What an amazing experience. Yes, what you see in the picture is going to be your room. Perfectly maintained little paradise in the middle of the jungle, only reachable by boat. A semi-private guide took care of us for 3 days, bringing us the excursions to Lake Sandoval, on the river at night to see caimans, and some walks in the nearby jungle to see trees, birds, and more. Meals were included and very good.

Perfect safe location. Rooms are very small. Breakfast was amazing.

The market in Puerto Maldonado was so and so. Very poor area, but glad we got to walk a bit around with the help of the guide

cool tour of the surrounding jungle learning about walking trees, strangling figs, termites, and fire ants. At night, we went on the Madre de Dios river to spot caimans.

We loved the trip to the Sandoval Lake. We did a beautiful walk in the jungle, seeing monkeys and birds, and then we took a canoe on the lake to see more animals (caimans, birds, sloths). The guide was amazing at spotting animals

Very cool way to experience the sacred valley! We drove around and reached Moray and the salt mines. It was really fun

Amazing meal at the pachamanca farm. It was cooked in front of us in an inground oven filled with hot stone. Everything was so fresh and tasty. Ollantaytambo was very interesting, we did not have a guide but we ended up hiring a private guide on the spot. It was super interesting to hear about the inca and how it was built. The train to Machu Picchu was cool, with a panoramic view (glass roof).

Amazing view. The private guide was really good at explaining and taking pictures of us. We were never rushed and it was not too crowded thank to the fact we did the 8am tour

Amazing view. We truly enjoyed the short walk on the Andes with an alpacas along the way. This is the new site (there is another rainbow mountain a lot more popular) and we were the first one to reach the top. The stop to the buffet restaurant for breakfast and lunch was a good way to interrupt the long drive and the food was very good.

WoW. What an amazing and unforgettable experience! This old-fashioned luxury train felt so authentic, and the scenery was amazing. The meal was absolutely delicious and the staff was so attentive. One of the best experiences of the trip

The kayaking was good, but it was attached to the group (a very large group) to go to the Taquila island. We were rushed to he island with the Uros, and also, all the time, on the Taquila island, we were rushed. I strongly advise getting a private tour on the lake instead; this excursion did not work for us. A real pity since the kayak part was nice. Also we were expecting 1.5 hours of kayaking but we did only 1 h.

Fantastic, good location & excellent staff. Well appointed spacious rooms & Riad. Excellent food. Staff anticipated your every need and always recognized & acknowledged you

Everything was great. There was a real feel of authenticity of being in Morocco

Fabulous from start to finish. Staff, rooms, grounds, location. Highly recommend

No reservation, poor customer service especially front, desk. Small rooms a/c not great

Did not attend

Self guided, will wait on line to control number of people in cave

Such a unique hotel! Loved the vibe and decor. Breakfast was good and the room was comfy.

Such a beautiful location. It’s truly in the middle of nowhere. The decor and design of the hotel was stunning. The hot tubs and sauna with a view were an excellent touch.

Beautiful spot to rest our heads. Lots of space and had all the amenities we needed. Right across the street from a grocery store and shopping.

Such a fun vibe!

Cute little hotel. Could use fans in the rooms, but aside from that it was great!

Very cool location. We parked at p3 and hit all the things we wanted to see. Didn’t find a good spot to see the clear water where the snorkelers were.

Fascinating location.

Stunning! If you go too late though, the bathrooms will be closed.

Just a cave. Nothing special. But cool to see.

Beautiful location! If you’re coming from the west, drive over the bridge and park on the north side of the road. You’ll hit the lagoon and the beach at the same spot.

Steep walk up, but doable. Beautiful view at the top.

Such a fun excursion. The guides were great. We got to see whales at the beach while riding too!

Very unique spot. Definitely recommend.

Got to see puffins up close! Beautiful views of the beach and arch.

What an incredible experience! Our guide, Haynee, was fantastic! Very informative. Very unique. Bucket list item for sure.

Stunning location! Definitely hike to the top!

Beautiful location. Fun to be able to go behind the falls. Definitely wear waterproof clothes head to toe. You will get wet.

Wow. What an experience. This is a must-do!

Very cool tour. My kids were dreading this one, but by the end they were glad we’d done it. Our tour guide was great. Wish he’d added info on how to figure out how to say some of the language and also the folklore around trolls and elves.

Very cool tour. My kids were dreading this one, but by the end they were glad we’d done it.

Wasn’t expecting the trek out to see the seals … took forever to maneuver on the rocks during low tide. There weren’t many seals. If we’d skipped anything on our trip, it would have been this one.

Very cool view. Our GPS said the cafe in Hellnar was closed, so we didn’t hike the whole was because that was going to be our stopping point.

A must see. Short hike down. Don’t miss the lagoons hidden behind the rocks on the right.

The view! Wow! This is a must see on the peninsula!

Beautiful! A must see!

We stayed in one of the 3 bedroom villas. The size of the villa and views exceeded our expectations. It was nice to have a common area and some room to spread out. The views from the terrace were absolutely stunning. The breakfast/dinner area offers gorgeous views of the water and the medieval city on the other side of the beach. The pool and adjacent beach area are great. The hotel is easily accessible to the main part of town but a little set apart, so not too busy or loud. Lovely and highly recommended.

An excellent hotel in the Eixample neighborhood. I really appreciated the location--very close to many historic sites and the Gothic Quarter--but also in a residential area. It felt less touristy but still very close to everything we wanted to see. Clean and absolutely met all of our travel needs. Would highly recommend.

A very nice hotel right in the middle of everything. We were there during the busiest Pride events in 2025: parade, music, dance parties until 2:30 am. The black out curtains and nice thick windows ensured that sleeping was no problem. If you're looking for a quieter or slightly more residential location, this might not be the right choice for you. It was a great vantage point for exploration throughout the city. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

I highly recommend this experience for a half day trip from Barcelona. The mountain and views are truly beautiful. The monastery, beautiful and peaceful. After transportation and the initial guided tour, we had about an hour or so free. I could probably have spent about a half hour more, but overall a lovely experience.

Ana was a lovely tour guide and absolute fun! I would absolutely recommend her to other groups.

My family and I LOVED this experience. It was on a very hot July day in Madrid. I was worried that we would be too worn out to appreciate it. However.....it helps that the experience involves both food and alcohol! I'm embarrassed that I can't remember the definite name of our tour guide--Alberto or Alfonzo....definitely started with an "A". He was lovely and we clicked with the family of 5 from the UK. The not-too-touristy neighborhood was a definite win. I loved the historical background. I would absolutely recommend this as a wonderful experience--and one that will likely meet your dinner requirements, at least for us Americans that are used to eating at an earlier hour than Spaniards.

A wonderful overview of Madrid, hitting all the necessary highlights with some funny and informative stories along the way.
