Everything about my KimKim experience was flawless, our planner Catia understood exactly the type of trip we were looking for, and booked us with guides that provided a unique experience in the Azores. When problems arose due to inclement weather, plans had to be canceled, bookings refunded, and other arrangements made, on the spot. This was all done seamlessly.
Hi Frederick.
Thank you for your message. I am so glad to know you had a fantastic time at our piece of paradise! :)

I really can't say enough about how much we enjoyed ourselves in the Azores. The islands are amazing and the tour took full advantage of their natural beauty. The agent who arranged the trip (Catia) did an excellent job and all the guides and activities were great. I would happily refer Kim Kim and Picos de Aventura to anyone who asks!
Catia was always friendly and prompt and answered all our questions with the right amount of detail. The trip she arranged was excellent from accommodations to activities.
Hi Jon.
Thank you for your kind words. I am really happy to know that you had a wonderful time here! :)

I am sorry to hear that your experience was not the best during your holidays!
Since the plan included more than one island, I had to book the tours through other provider which we've worked before and is of trust.
In this case, and I hope you understand it, I gave them all the info they asked for and also asked for any special requirements which they did not informed me about. I already sent the provider an email in order to check what created this lack of information and... Read more

The schedule of activities felt oddly organized as our rest day was early in the week and prior to the more physical activities. The packed lunches with repetitive and monotonous. The trip was good but essentially we were paired with an agent from pico adventures so we were limited to activities only from their group even when we suggested an alternative it was dismissed. So essentially kimkim provided us with someone who made a hotel reservation for us and connected us to pico adventures.
See prior notes.
Hello Steven, than you for your feedback.
May I ask which activities would you have liked to change? Please notice that August is the peak of the high season and sometimes it gets really difficult to find availabilities on short notice and I believe that was the case.

Thanks KimKim! This was an excellent trip and having KimKim back-up was comforting. You connected me with Picos de Adventura, a superb tour company and their "adventures" could not have been more fun or beautiful.
Catia was great -- I also worked with Tiago and they were both tremendously helpful with getting my trip organized and with any questions I had along the way. This is a great company clearly focusing on the best possible customer service.
Dear Catherine. I am really glad we could help you building your holidays plan.
Thank you for your kind words!

If directions to the office were included, it would have been helpful for the 1st day. Also, having a dry, secure place to store phones/camera would be great for water adventures so we could have taken pictures. Alternatively, if there was a photo package, for the water adventures, we would have signed up for it.
Dear Lee, thank you for the feedback.
If you have a look at the Welcome Kit I sent you which included all the information about our address and directions to our office, you'll find it there, so I thought it would be easy for you to find us. As for the water adventures, please notice that we are on a zodiac boat and there's not too much room there for storage but I appreciate your comments and will try to find a solution for this.

Our trip went very smoothly and was a wonderful experience. We didn't wind up doing the activities on the days of our trip planned, but all of them were covered and it fit very nicely based on weather, etc...
Catia was very prompt in responding to any questions that we had during our trip.
Hi Carol.
We tend change the order of the activities depending on the weather conditions because most of the tours are outdoor so it's better to have them when the weather is nicer. I am happy to know that you had a wonderful experience at our island.
Thank you for your feedback.
