Elise made planning the trip so easy. She gave us great suggestions and was happy to make any tweaks that we wanted. All the excursions that she arranged we wonderful and all the hotels booked were good and were always close to our arrival/departure point which minimised the dragging of luggage. The itinerary provided was very clear and easy to follow. The guides for the excursions were very informative. Overall I would have no hesitation in recommending Kimkim. Thank you Elise for everything
