The service that KimKim provided for us in the DR was great. They even helped us with a midnight airport pick-up even though we had not planned that ahead of time. Their drivers and guides are top-notch -if you get Jackson, you'll be really lucky! Read more

The original restaurant selected was too crowded, so we ended up at another one that had limited selection.

Tila was a very safe driver.

Our KimKim guide connected us with a City Tour guide named Tony and it was not a great experience. We mentioned that we were not too interested in visiting the main cathedral, but we went anyway. We went to a tourist trap of a store and lunch was where all the other tourists ate. Overall it was a disappointing expereince.

Tony from the city tour agency was very low energy and didn't listen to us.

It was safe.
