This was such a highlight of the trip - David was very good and providing us with Dutch history and the history of the food we were eating. He shared so much of his own personal experience of growing up in Amsterdam - it made it very personal. He really got to know us and was amazing at providing tidbits of information.

From start to finish planning my trip to Amsterdam was seamless with the support of Mieke. She crafted a custom itinerary that balanced the interests and needs of my 14yo son and 82yo mom. Most helpful was her availability and responsiveness while we were abroad. It’s such a comfort having someone in country to reach out to with questions or, for example, to modify an activity mid-trip when we realized my mom needed less walking. This is my third time using Kim Kim and I highly recommend! Read more

My son and I really enjoyed this spooky theater that introduced us to the ghosts of Amsterdam's past. Beware, though, it is spooky and not for the faint of heart! Also requires a fair amount of walking and crouching so my 82yo mom was not able to participate.

Daytrip to Cheese Farm, Edam and Zaanse Schans
Daytrip to Cheese Farm, Edam and Zaanse Schans
The Netherlands

The cheese farm was interesting, Edam was charming, and the driver Herman was lovely, but Zaanse Schans was insanely mobbed with tourists and felt more like a disney experience than an authentic glimpse into the architectural and engineering feats of the windmills (which were magnificent but better to know in advance that it is a bit of a tourist spectacle)

We loved taking a walk back through time to the medieval history of Amsterdam. Beautiful grounds and restored castle. The town itself is beyond charming. A trip favorite for sure!

Dear Rebecca, Thank you very much for your kind words! Great to read that all of you have enjoyed the trip. Having different ages on board is sometimes a bit af a challenge, but I am glad you could make it work for all of you. Thank you for sharing your experiences about the windmill site as well; it very touristy and crowded some days - we will make sure to inform our guests better about that, so future guests are better prepared for it.
Wishing you all the best, Mieke

My daughter and I just returned from a trip to Belgium and the Netherlands. Two glorious weeks, during which there were absolutely no issues, problems, or disappointments.

Bas, our specialist in the Netherlands, created a perfect itinerary for us. The hotels were wonderful, the activities enjoyable, and well-timed. Bas was available to us by text and phone, and all the guides he suggested were wonderful.

Traveling in a foreign country can be very stressful, and if things go wrong, what can you do but muscle through it. This trip was incredibly well-planned, and everyone was kind and accommodating, making it a breeze.

We told everyone who asked that KimKim is a great company to work with. We will use them again on our next adventure.

Thank you to Bas and all the wonderful humans who helped us.
