My mission is to curate unforgettable experiences that deeply immerse you in the diverse and captivating Indonesian culture. I'll tailor personalized itineraries that meet your interests. However, it's not just about the destinations; it's about connecting with the heart and soul of Indonesia. Hospitality lies at the core of Indonesian culture, and I am committed to providing you with warmth, care, and a genuine sense of belonging.

How did you get involved in travel?

"I embarked on a life-changing journey to Thailand for a volunteer program in the beginning of 2020. While there, I shared captivating stories about the beauty of Indonesia. Witnessing the genuine interest and amazement in the eyes of the people I met in Thailand was an incredible experience. Initially, many of them had little to no knowledge about Indonesia. However, as I painted vivid pictures of its wonders, their curiosity ignited. It was a joyous moment for me, knowing that I had sparked a genuine desire in them to explore and discover Indonesia. This transformative experience fueled my passion to continue promoting Indonesian culture and captivating travelers."

We loved the experience with Kim
Kim. I do think we had a few too many stops and would have preferred more days in Raja Ampat and Ubud. The diving was fantastic and Ubud had so many things to do. I would definitely suggest including how long the travel days are and mention the traffic. It’s hard to have a 7 or 8am start time the day after a long travel day. That means being up at 5 or 6 to get dressed and have breakfast. I say this about our travel day from Raja Ampat to Yogyakarta. ...

That means being up at 5 or 6 to get dressed and have breakfast. I say this about our travel day from Raja Ampat to Yogyakarta. We left at 7am and got to our hotel at almost 10pm. I do believe that Yogyakarta should have been cut out of my itinerary but our drivers and tour guides were amazing. In fact all of our tour guides, drivers and hotels were fantastic! Amazing, actually. I am so very pleased and will highly recommend Kim Kim to friends. Pricilla was exceptional and so was Kaisa. Thanks for making our holiday amazing.

We had a little too much jet lag to really enjoy this tour. The market was a bit narrow and scared me but with a lot of people. I chose it to do the monument tour due to the crowds as well. The temple we went to was very small and in a not so nice part of town. We’ve been to temples and this one was not impressive at all. The restaurant for lunch was nice. We chose not to sit through the puppet show. Our favorite part was New China Town and Golf Island We ended up spending our last day on Golf Island

This was a 14 hour travel day We chose to skip the rappel which was the whole reason to go to Yogyakarta. It requires an early pick up and we just needed to rest. There should have been a flight that took us from Sorong to Yogyakarta but instead we had a layover back in Jakarta which someone should have taken into account.

We had the most amazing trip to Indonesia.

Priscilla put together a perfect itinerary that incorporated our wishes of balancing historical, adventure, cultural and scenic aspects.

My husband and I took the trip with our 11-year-old grandson. We hopped between 4 Islands and had 5 inter-Indonesian flights in 11 days. We wanted to see as much as we could but knew two weeks would be our limit if travelling with a younger person.

We experienced the Borobudur & Prambanan Temple in Yogyakarta, Java with a private guide.

Balikpapan was another wonderful stop. Our primary goal of the trip was to see the Orangutans. Our itinerary made the most of our time in Borneo. We saw the Orangutans, Sunbears, climbed the Canopy Suspension Bridge, trekked the rain forest, took a boat down the Sungai Hitam/Black River, and saw Proboscis monkeys, a couple of Pythons, and thoroughly enjoyed the tranquil and beauty of the various mangroves and palms. We were so fortunate to have had one of the caregivers of Samboja Lestari as our guide.

We then flew to Bali and enjoyed the beautiful cities of Ubud & Seminyak. We had a relaxing massage at our hotel and then kicked it up a notch to explore the area with our most amazing guide (Budi). Budi is a wonderfully kind, respectful, knowledgeable man who paid extra special attention to our grandson. I am sure he is the perfect father to his sons, and we LOVED him and LOVED having him as our guide!
We saw the Tegallang Rice Terrace, Sacred Monkey Forest, Ubud Palace, Bathed the Elephants, took a Farm to Table cooking class and visited the Uluwatu Temple where we were able to watch a traditional Balinese (Kecak Dance).

Our last stop before making our way back to Jakarta and home was spending some time in Labuan Bajo, Flores. We wanted to see the prehistoric looking, large lizards - Komodo Dragons. Priscilla arranged for a hotel pick up, boat group tour, to see, the incredible views of Padar Island, Pink Beach, and Taka Makassar Island. We were fortunate enough to have seen two Komodo Dragons and thoroughly enjoyed our two stops that allowed us the opportunity to enjoy snorkeling.

Priscilla looked after every little detail of our trip. She tapped into our needs and executed them perfectly. She coordinated the tours, guides, transfers, and flights within the country, and the whole journey was seamless. We had an on-ground support person (Janice,) through WhatsApp, which worked out flawlessly for communication if needed.it was our first-time using Kim.Kim but will definitely not be our last. Our experience was FANTASTIC!
