Eline Rasmussen

Hi!
My name is Eline. I grew up in the idyllic city of Krisiansand, Norway. I have lived in all three countries of Scandinavia, and I have grown to like the beautiful culture, nature and experiences the nordic countries have to offer. As I grew up in a coastal city, I got to explore the coastline of Norway by boat. I was lucky to grow up in an adventurous family who let me get to experience everything from the small islands along the coast, to fishing under the midnight sun in the northern part of Norway. Along the way, I also developed a love for skiing and hiking in the mountains.

I look foreward to use my experience and knowledge to help you plan an adventurous trip to Norway!

Our large, multigenerational trip to Denmark was a total success thanks to our tour guide/bus driver/etc, Svend Erik, and KimKim.

Our large, multigenerational trip to Denmark was a total success thanks to our tour guide/bus driver/etc, Svend Erik, and KimKim. We were able to work with KimKim to plan with their suggestions and ideas that we had for cities and sights. Everything worked out wonderfully. We were able to have our tour guide also be our bus driver and local specialist which relieved a lot of the unknown and decreased the stress of traveling with 18 people (9 of those being kids). We traveled the countryside in a beautiful, luxury bus which comfortably fit us all. We saw so many wonderful things in Denmark and enjoyed the sights, history and culture. Thank you to everyone who helped plan and execute our trip.

Copenhagen Airport (CPH)

Svend Erik was so helpful and patient at the airport and throughout our trip. He waited for our arrival and helped sort out the walker/rollator that didn’t arrive with us. He took care of that and found a temporary replacement for our traveler to use so she wasn’t held back from enjoying our trip. His hospitality, concern and care for us was felt throughout our wonderful 10 days in Denmark. We loved that he was our bus driver and tour guide so he could get to know our interests and needs while on our trip ( which is quite a feat considering our group size and diverse personalities)! He was also so great with the kids who ranged in age from 5-14 years old. He took time to teach them about the Royal Guard and how to drum. He also added a quick stop to a place we were interested in going at the last minute. We are so grateful to have met him and have him show us Denmark!

We had a new guide for the walking tour of Copenhagen. It might if put her at a disadvantage because we were brand new to her and we were a large group. She weals able to teach us about Copenhagen and show us really cool things. The canal tour was good, better for the adults than the kids.

I am very glad that I found kimkim when deciding to visit Norway. On my own, I believe it would have proven a daunting task to plan and organize the trip.

I am very glad that I found kimkim when deciding to visit Norway. On my own, I believe it would have proven a daunting task to plan and organize the trip. Both Eline and Fenne were great to work with. They were able to craft a trip that focused on getting a little off the beaten path and experiencing Norway up close and personal. Some of the highlights for me were ziplining in Bergen, a fjord sauna experience in Flam and a rib boat cruise in Flam into some of the most beautiful fjords in all of Norway. We went in early July, and because the snow was still melting, we were able to see tons of waterfalls. Our guide was very knowledgeable and eager to share about how the fjords were formed, the culture and ways of living in some of the very small towns along the edge of the fjords, as well as little anecdotes about Norway in general. Another highlight was visiting a small town called Undredal, where they make the delicious brown cheese (as well as others) that is served all over Norway. It was also great that during the trip, Julia was available to answer any questions that we had. I would highly recommend kimkim.

Hotel Review
Fretheim Hotel
Flåm

The Fretheim hotel is a charming, pretty hotel that dates back quite a way. The grounds are lovely and full of all types of flowers along with a little pebble walkway through the grass. The lobby has a nice array of comfortable chairs and large windows that allow for a nice view of the water and that bring in lots of natural light. The restaurant had an abundance of food and drink options as well as courteous, cheerful staff. The concierge was very helpful as well. The room had its own little balcony that allowed for a nice view of the water. Overall, it was a great place to stay in Flam.

The planning process was done well in advance with Eline. She was open to our requests and made the changes to adjust the program according to our preferences.
However, a few things could be improved which worth to be mentioned in favor of future travelers.
1. The lodging in Flam was sold out at the time of our planning, back in April, therefore we were booked in a Gudvangen hotel, 20 km away from Flam by road. After about a 7-hour (amazing) train journey, we realized would have to travel...

The planning process was done well in advance with Eline. She was open to our requests and made the changes to adjust the program according to our preferences.
However, a few things could be improved which worth to be mentioned in favor of future travelers.
1. The lodging in Flam was sold out at the time of our planning, back in April, therefore we were booked in a Gudvangen hotel, 20 km away from Flam by road. After about a 7-hour (amazing) train journey, we realized would have to travel to the hotel, check-in and return the morning after to Flam to board the fjord cruise before 9:00 am. Then, sailing to... Gudvangen and back to Flam where the cruise ended. Now what? Take the bus to return once again to Gudvangen hotel and back to Flam in the morning. Five times doing the travelling between both sites, twice by boat, three more by road.
Thanks to Julia, the "emergency girl", who found a (tiny) accommodation for 2 nights in Flam, a last minute and very welcomed option to the original plan.
2. We were not given the option to fly from Bergen to Oslo (50') instead of 7 hs by train. It was our last day in Norway, what means we missed half day we could use in Oslo. A point to be considered as well.
Otherwise, everything worked to perfection. Tickets, reservations, suggestions, places, not a single problem arise.
All in all, we are happy we have planned this trip with The Kim Kim team.
