My wife and I had an incredible honeymoon through Thailand and Vietnam, making stops across Phuket, Bangkok, and Nha Trang. We owe a huge part of that experience to our specialist Bella. From the very beginning, Bella was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely invested in helping us create a special & personalized trip.
Bella did an amazing job putting together an itinerary that balanced adventure, cultural exploration, and relaxation across many food tours, wildlife and oceanic exploration, even a ring-side Muay Thai experience at Bangkok's famous Rajadamnern stadium.
One of Bella’s biggest strengths was her communication. She was consistently prompt, responsive, and incredibly helpful whenever we had a question or wanted to make an adjustment. Even with a trip spanning two countries and multiple destinations, we always felt like we had someone in our corner who could help us navigate anything that came up. My wife also has a severe nut allergy which Bella made sure all of our guides, vendors, and experiences, were more than prepared for. That peace of mind was invaluable, especially for such an important trip.
We also want to give a huge shoutout to the local guides and drivers who helped make the experience so memorable! In Phuket, Nui took us through a great food tour, Mr. Uncle and his team showed us an incredible time through James Bond Island, Mr. Man was an excellent driver, and the team at the Elephant Sanctuary were incredibly sweet! In Bangkok, Chaloo gave us an incredible tour of many beautiful temples, Chef Nam was an incredibly teacher during our cooking class, and Amp was a fantastic TukTuk Food Tour guide! Mr. Chin was also a great driver, being communicative and prompt each and everyday. In Nha Trang, Van was the perfect host, even stepping in when his driver got sick! He and his partner Mr. Tony added to our itinerary by showing us spa and food spots loved by the locals to make sure we had an authentic experience. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and welcoming. Our guides did a fantastic job bringing the history and culture of Thailand and Vietnam to life, while our drivers made getting around each destination feel easy and stress-free. Their warmth and hospitality really added to the experience.
We couldn't recommend Bella and the KimKim team more highly. If you're considering using KimKim for a trip to Thailand, Vietnam, or anywhere else in Southeast Asia, we would absolutely recommend working with Bella. She is an exceptional travel specialist, and we are so grateful that she helped make our honeymoon everything we hoped it would be — and more!

We stayed at the Kimpton Maa-Lai in Bangkok, which was a very nice hotel. I booked it through the Chase travel portal and got great benefits like breakfast and a $100 property credit, which made the stay even better. I would recommend this hotel, especially for those with a Chase Sapphire Reserve card.

In Thailand, we stayed at the Anantara Mai Khao Villas, and it was absolutely incredible. We had a private pool villa, which I would highly recommend for couples. The experience was amazing, and I couldn't recommend it enough.

We stayed at the Alma Resort Cam Ranh in Vietnam, which I would recommend especially for families. It felt like a family resort with lots of activities and many kids around. While it was great, if we were to visit again, we might choose a more adult-only place with fewer children. Overall, it was a good experience but more suited for families with younger kids.
