Kimkim Trip Reviews for France

I want to say thank you to Mathilde and her team for helping me create memories that will last me a lifetime and beyond. I can't rave enough about the exceptional services provided by Mathilde. She was patient, accommodating, flexible, and always available. Every single guide Mathilde paired me with was incredibly kind, generous and knowledgeable. My vacation in France far exceeded my high expectations. I will not hesitate to enlist Mathilde's help again if I ever travel to France or Switzerland for that matter. She is remarkably excellent and I would highly recommend her to anyone. Mathilde, merci beaucoup.

We used Kim Kim to plan a self-guided trek on the Tour du Mont Blanc. Words can't express how amazing hiking the TMB was. Thomas crafted an unforgettable trip for us. He was responsive to our questions and designed a trip ideal for our budget, hiking capabilities, and desired experiences. The 52 page packet of instructions, maps, emergency contact numbers, tips and descriptions of each day made way-finding super easy, helped to control expectations, and ensure we were ready for each day's adventure. The hospitality at all of our accomodations was superb. We truly appreciate the time it took Thomas to design a trip tailored just for us.

We had a wonderful trip to France, traveling to Normandy, Paris and Loire Valley. Every segment of the trip was planned well and even though our plane was delayed en route for three hours, we found our driver waiting for us at the airport, and our itinerary wasn't affected at all. We had a zoom call with Lise at the start so she could understand our preferences and she made all the right calls in booking really charming hotels, scheduling excellent guides and pacing the trip. I didn't have to do any of the work and could just follow the itinerary. She was very thorough--we were provided all the information we needed in a very well organized manner. We enjoyed all of our interactions with the guides and it was really the best way to get to know the French culture. I look forward to another trip to France in the future and am very grateful to Lise for all of her hard work.

Justine planned exactly the trip we asked for, and we had an amazing time. With hindsight I would have done a bit less and not tried to cover as much for a more relaxing trip, but that’s just us. We did catch a couple of mistakes so I would encourage people to carefully review all the materials before leaving. Out of five hotels, three were really great and two were not. We had fabulous food everywhere we went, and two guided tours that were excellent. We saw so much beauty, culture and history. Overall an amazing trip!

Le Donjon – Cœur de La Cité Médiévale

This hotel is inside the walled city so it’s not easy to get in and out. You have to pay to park outside the walls and get driven up there. Its dark and outdated “medieval” theme could do with an update. We had to switch rooms as the first one was so dark and sad. Not touched since the 90’s. The walled garden is lovely though, and great breakfast.

We had the most amazing trip and hike of the Tour Du Mont Blanc. Everything was expertly planned by Stephen Molloy. We started planning this trip of a lifetime almost a year before. We knew we needed experts to help us plan our hike, book our refuges and help us to transfer our bags. We were in touch with several organizations and realized quickly, Kimkim and Stephen were the right fit to help us plan and execute the perfect vacation. Stephen was most responsive and attentive and helped us with all the details of an over seas trip. He also planned the perfect day in Chamonix for us at the start of our hike and the perfect day in Annecy at the end of our hike. All of our accommodations were great. We highly recommend using Kimkim and we are already planning our vacation for next year and will definitely use Kimkim and Stephen Molloy at High Point Holidays to make it happen.

Mathilde and her team at KimKim were instrumental in creating a wonderful relaxed road trip in France for our family. We are time-poor professionals with little room for research into the lead-up of our holiday. Mathilde and the team in France created an itinerary which included our must-see sites in Normandy, Loire and Bordeaux; and plenty more we had not thought of. She was thorough and the attention to detail was superb. Her accommodation choices pleasantly surprised us at every location. We could not have possibly have chosen better ourselves. Travelling with a toddler was factored in. Mathilde liaised with the hotel and found us a babysitter in Bordeaux. The itinerary was not rushed but still allowed us to make the most of our 2-week stay. We highly recommend KimKim to any busy professionals and families, or simply anyone who desires a stress-free and incredible holiday.

I really appreciated the efficiency and thoughtfulness of the recommendations for our family of 4. We were traveling with our young boys ages 8 and 11 and Audrey and team helped with booking tickets to sites, lunch and transfer.

We were not sure if this meal would be worth the investment but we have to say, absolutely! Post Pandemic, a visitor cannot even stand under the base of the tower without a ticket, and the whole place was mobbed. Luckily, with our tickets to lunch and level 1, we were able to go through expedited lines. Must do this if in Paris!

Had a great trip in the mountains of Savoie ! Every place of accommodation that I stayed at were great (food is always great anywhere in France). The itinerary made sense and was well calculated. Thomas was always there when I had questions or needed more information. We had plenty of email exchanged and one Zoom called that reassured me on everything.

We had a most amazing trip for approximately 30 days in France. We started our trip in Marseilles and ended in Fontainebleau just south of Paris. We travelled via train so we could watch the beautiful, changing countryside out the train windows.

We worked with Amandine and she organized an amazing itinerary for us. At the start, I had an idea of what cities / villages we wanted to visit but I needed assistance on where to stay and more importantly, how to get from Point A to Point B. Amandine made additional city / village suggestions and helped improve the routing. But more importantly, she helped to find and suggest things to do, places to see, day trips to take, and ensured we knew what was not to miss.

Amandine set us up with private walking tours to introduce us to new cities. Specifically, Valarie in Marseilles, Lucy in Arles, Marine in Toulouse, Agathe in Lyon and another woman in Angers. She also set us up on a small group tour from Marseille with a company A La Francaise where 5 of us plus our guide Nicholas went to several small villages in Provence and experienced lavender fields, ochre buildings, a large natural spring and a Sunday market. Not to mention our private tours to multiple villages from multiple other cities we visited - thank you Thomas, Rachel, Sebastian, Alex, Demitri, and Raphael.

On our own, there is no way we'd have found such small group tours with such knowledgeable guides full of history and fun facts. Nor would we have had such centrally located hotels, museum tickets, train tickets, etc. We were clearly well taken care of and in good hands with Amandine.

In general, the trip was very pleasant and navigating to each location was fairly easy. I do think the day to day activities in Bordeaux could have been better, and I don't think I'd go to Sarlat again without a car. The hotel in Sarlat was pretty basic...I wish we would have stayed somewhere nicer and in town (but we were trying to budget). Bordeaux hotel experience was exceptional.

Wonderful hotel! Ahmed is the owner and he keeps his place clean, comfortable, and chic, with the most welcome personal touches. His communication is excellent and strives to be helpful in any way possible – from making restaurant reservations and booking taxis on our behalf. The hotel is also in a superb location. When we visit Bordeaux again, we'll choose this hotel 100%.

E-bike wine tour of Saint-Emilion from Bordeaux

France

Our guide, Isabelle, was terrible. She spent no effort educating us on the wine/experience. She biked meters ahead of everyone, no effort to interact with the others. We also only spent 45 minutes in Saint-Emillion...I would have preferred to spend a whole day there, with a lunch at a restaurant. And then at the end of the trip the guide had the audacity to mention giving a good tip (FOR NOTHING!). I was infuriated. Oh, and the lunch we were given at a tiny chateaux was sandwich meat with a small salad and bread. Not what I was expecting given the location where we were...should have been more chic and we should have been able to have more wine to drink! We were only given scant pours for 'tasting'. I've been to better experiences in Burgundy.

Our guide, Khloe, was wonderful. She was knowledgeable and actually cared to engage with the group. I do think the Sand Dune experience itself was very nice and unique, but it's a bit out of the way and could have been broken out as it's own experience vs. combined with the afternoon of wine tours. This would have given my husband and I time to explore Bordeaux city more.

Vaseem was great. We particularly loved Sandrine (Louvre treasure hunt) and Regis (Normandy DDay beaches). Making macarons in Montmartre was lots of fun. Timed tickets were a good idea, but, given the time, I would have booked them myself. Eiffel Tower visit was chaotic, but I wouldn't attribute that to Vaseem. The Seine cruise wasn't worth the time and money spent.
Problematically, Kimkim doesn't break down the costs of each item, which doesn't allow users to decide if they want to spend money on each activity. But I can't fault Vaseem for anything. He was more than patient and accommodating.

I usually like to plan my own trips, but this time I just didn't have the extra time on hand to do the research. David helped us plan exactly the type of trip we were looking for in South France. I couldn't have done it better!

We had a wonderful trip to Paris, Avignon and Nice, thanks to Lucie. She was very responsive to our ideas and requests as we planned the trip and she was available if we had questions during the trip. She helped us schedule all the activities we wanted, including dinner at the Eiffel Tower, a sunset cruise on the Seine, and our favorite, a group cooking class in Avignon. We loved all the hotels, but we especially loved the hotel in Nice, which was just across the street from the Mediterranean Sea.

Audrey was awesome to work with! She was extremely responsive and helped us adapt plans when needed while in France. Maca’rong in Paris was a delicious experience. I strongly recommend for anyone looking for a baking experience especially if you have kids. We spent 2 amazing days with Manon in Normandy. I thought the kids (6 & 8) would not be very interested in the D-day tour. She explained things directly to them in a way they would understand and got them engaged. Both girls still talk about Manon and touring the bunkers is in both of their top 3 things they did in France. Our tour with Laurianne was cut short due to the riots in Marseille. However, we appreciated that instead of cancelling she took us to local shops and made sure we had food to eat before everything closed down. We wouldn’t have known what was going on if it wasn’t for her. Inés was very friendly and knowledgeable. She took us to multiple spots, a highlight being a local farmers market where we purchased delicious local goods. Maria was great, she took us to Monaco and made sure we were able to experience the changing of the guards. Overall, I was very pleased with our entire experience and look forward to planning another trip with KimKim.

We had a wonderful time traveling through France on a jam-packed itinerary. We are itching to do so again.

Some thoughts on our 7 night trip:
Day 1) The first day in Paris was great with a museum because we had some time to relax after the flight and get recuperated. We finished the evening with some local friends at a bar which was nice to catch up after many years apart.
Day 2) The walking tour of Montmarte was amazing. Our guide, Sonali, was really kind and helpful. We wished it was about an hour longer so we could see and sample a few of the best cafes but we spent some time afterwards sitting down with a cappuccino. We enjoyed the free time in the afternoon and night to explore and meet up with friends.
Day 3) The train was simple and went on without a hitch. We were lucky enough that our hotel was ready when we arrived an hour or so early. We loved having the afternoon to explore Aix-en-Provence and the hotel was in a great location that made it very easy for us.
Day 4) This was my favorite day in France. Gilles was an amazing guide and we had such a good time. Our cooking class ended up being about 7 hours. We toured two markets in Aix, plus got to stop at the fish monger, bakery, and butcher, where he showed us what to look for in all the specialty items. The wine tasting was also great, especially since we got to pick out the wine we shared during the meal. The cooking was amazing being in his home in the hills. Such an amazing experience and I would 100% recommend everyone do it. We were slightly full for dinner, but it worked out as we could eat a little less but still be fully satisfied.
Day 5) The train was good, if possible, I would book on the opposite side of where we sat so you have ocean views. Kind of tough since the train turns around after leaving Aix. Hotel was nice but we had to wait to check in, so we dropped off our bags and walked the city.
Day 6) The van tour was good to get out, but there were issues with communications between the company and Kim Kim. It was ultimately resolved so no big deal. The tour guide Alex was a bit mean to some of the people on the tour, and it was a little tense to start. The locations were great and we liked seeing the different areas nearby.
Day 7) Nothing too eventful. We were able to do an hour late checkout so we could go to the beach in the morning and freshen up for the afternoon.
Day 8) Another amazing walking tour with Faye. The food was really great! The wine was really great, and the small group made it really fun. Timing was a bit tight with our departing flights but everything worked out really well.

So things that weren't the best:
- Our driver in Paris, Thanusan, sent other drivers a few times with not super nice cars. It was kind of odd, especially on the last day.
- The van tour in Nice had a few hiccups, but turned out okay.
- My fault, but I would probably do a town other than Nice. We really enjoyed the city but it was a bit touristy for our taste (even if the tourists were mainly from Paris).

Overall, we had a great first time in France and learned a lot about what we should do in the future! Thanks Kim Kim team for helping set everything up and we can't wait to be back!

I won’t travel any other way. Lise spoiled us for future trips! Everything was perfect. Our guides were exceptional: Alex (food tour), Marten (Montemarte) and Raphaelle (Louvre and Versailles) were memorable and personable. I had been to Paris before and didn’t love it. THIS trip made all the difference. Now I see how people fall in love with this city! Take all my money! Book your trip with Lise. She is outstanding.

Audrey was amazing in keeping up with all our trip activities. Always responding right away when we had questions. She was amazing using her resources and other colleagues like Lucie when our driver forgot to pick us up and we missed our train. Made a stressful morning into and nice day.

There are so many good things to say about Simon and the trip he planned for us. Let me start with our initial plan. He created so many fun and interesting things for us. Some weren't quite for our family so Simon was responsive to help choose different activities that were a prefect fit. Once we had everything all in place it turned out that we couldn't get the dates we had planned for. Within a few hours Simon had rebooked everything on our new dates. I can't imaging doing this myself, this alone was worth it.
Simon sent us our detailed itinerary a week before the trip so we could be comfortable in planning our timing, moving around the country.
When we landed in France we were greeted by a beautiful Limo that took us straight to the hotel. The Hotel in Paris was an apartment and nicely located for us to get around the city by Metro. The accommodations were clean and the breakfast each morning was very nice. We made good use of the coffee machine. We explored the city and loved our river cruise of the Seine at night. We also took the opportunity to climb the Eiffel Tower. After a long night of travel we found the cruise to be a perfect way to start the trip.
On day two we all loved the ride out to the palace of Versaille. The kids loved exploring the rooms and the gardens. When we returned to the city we explored the Jardins du Luxembourg on Simon's recommendation. It was perfect.
On day three we did a treasure hunt of the Louvre with the kids. We got to see all the important parts of the museum and the kids loved learning and seeing all the beauty of the museum.
Our next day took us by train to Marseille. Our first impression was a little off, but this was in large part due to the protests that were going on. However the hotel was in a great location and allowed us to get where we needed to go easily. After a good sleep we woke up to a new town. The streets had been cleaned and the energy was much better. Here again Simon was an excellent communicator for our trip. We had planned a morning cruise out to the Calanque national park, but the wind and the sea prevented us from going. Simon gave us plenty of notice and cancelled the excursion and provided a full refund very quickly. In the afternoon we did the e-bike tour of Marseille. The kids claimed this was the highlight of our whole trip. The views were spectacular, the exercise was fun and I highly recommend this as a way to connect with the city. Thanks to Simon notifying us that we couldn't sail in the morning. We were able to book a dinner cruise of the harbour and sea for the evening when the seas had calmed. This also was a highlight.
Then we were off to Nice. The train ride was smooth and easy. We checked in to another centrally located hotel that was cozy and again served a nice breakfast. We went and did some shopping and spent the afternoon splashing in the sea.
On our final full day we took a very lovely ride into Monaco. Our guide was very informative and it was a beautiful city. Definitely worth seeing. And of course getting to do a lap of the course of the Monaco Grand Prix was fun for everyone.
Upon returning to Nice we had more time to play in the Sea.
On our final day our limo to the airport was right on time and delivered us to the airport for a safe flight home.
Our family was so impressed by Simon and our kimkim experience. We had amazing things to do everyday and Simon created the trip of a lifetime for us. We are grateful!!

Julien organised our Tour du Mont Blanc trip for us with no drama, and it was great to have all the planning sorted, as well as the app/guidebook and maps all available. The WhatsApp was also really helpful for live support when needed.

Mark was great on the first 2 days of private tour.

The first driver on pick up was late but our flight was also late so maybe not his fault. Also not too personable but also maybe not his fault due to flight being late so maybe he's in hurry.

The cooking class was great.

Also the train stop and transfer was a bit tight for novice train riders like us. 10 minute window was stressful but we made it.

Rest of transfers and tours were great. Everything very smooth.
