BARBARA SCUNCIA

I deal mainly with the operational management of the trip. It’s important to understand the needs of each individual customer to be able to propose and create a journey tailored to their expectations

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"Italy is my first destination with all the activities requested from clients. thanks to the many trips made around the world my skills have grown. Let's start with our beautiful Italy, a heritage of history, culture, culinary tradition. Each region gives us something extraordinary to take with us. Italy is also fun, beautiful beaches, breathtaking locations."

How did you get involved in travel?

"My passion for travel stems from a personal need to discover and open my mind to everything new. Travelling represents the essence of one’s own cultural and personal growth. "

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"Each trip is a unique experience. Each place makes us discover unknown traditions, scents, flavors. I was captured by the energy and colors of Brazil, by the strength of Cuba, by the elegance and respect of oriental countries, by the colors of Morocco. But a trip that I carry in my heart is above all the one made in Thailand, Indonesia and Borneo"

Marta planned the trip and we were very disappointed in her planning. She did not tell us how remote the hotel in Agrigento was. We could not walk into town and Could not get a taxi or an uber.

Marta planned the trip and we were very disappointed in her planning. She did not tell us how remote the hotel in Agrigento was. We could not walk into town and Could not get a taxi or an uber. A hotel employee drove us in his personal car. The tour in the Valley of the Temples was supposed to be a small group but was over 40 people and was conducted in Italian and English. It was a waste. We could not walk into town.. The hotel in Siracusa was horrible. There were no services. The cooking class was great but we were not asked if there were any food concerns and one member of our group does not eat meat. Gila made adjustments but that shouldn’t have happened. Barbara, who took over for Marta was great and did her best to accommodate us. I definitely would not used Kimkin again and will not recommend them to others

Good morning Mr and Mrs Blume,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We’re truly sorry to hear that some aspects of your trip did not completely meet your expectations.
Before your departure, Marta provided detailed information about the hotel location and the type of guided group tour in Agrigento.
Had we known that these arrangements were not entirely to your preference, we would have been more than happy to suggest alternative options.
Throughout your journey, our team did its best to accommodate your requests — adjusting transfer times and tailoring the Etna excursion —
and we were pleased that you expressed satisfaction with our flexibility and attention.
Regarding your stay in Taormina, although the hotel was fully booked, we still arranged for the possibility of a room change to improve your experience. In the end, you kindly chose to keep the original room.
As for the hotel in Syracuse, no issues were reported during your stay. Unfortunately, it’s difficult to make adjustments afterwards, but please know that our team is always available to assist immediately on site.
Palazzo Cavalieri is a highly regarded property, and we would have been happy to step in had we been informed at the time.
We remain at your full disposal for any further clarification or future travel arrangements.

Kind Regards,
Liberty Travel team
