I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a trip to Norway that was nothing short of extraordinary, all thanks to Kimkim agency and our exceptional travel partner, Mathia. From the very beginning, Mathia listened intently to my goals and crafted an itinerary that I could have never planned myself.
The trip included special, hard-to-get reservations at Flor & Flaer, and three iconic guided hikes that were simply breathtaking. Mathia spent more than a year meticulously planning this trip, and not only was it perfect, but he also provided a personal touch every step of the way.
One instance that truly stood out was when I injured my knee on the descent of Trolltunga. Mathia called me at 9 PM to check on me and ensure I was okay. His dedication and care were evident throughout the entire journey.
I couldn't recommend Mathia and Kimkim enough for planning the perfect trip to Norway. Having an insider like Mathia plan this trip made it incredibly special, with amazing boutique hotels and unwavering support every step of the way. It was truly the trip of a lifetime.
I can't thank Mathia enough for his expertise and kind support from the beginning to the end! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
Hotel Reviews
We LOVED this hotel. The location was perfect. The rooms were lovely and the breakfast was simply amazing!
Great location for Trolltunga hike. Nice amenities. Wish there were more dinner options than the buffet.
I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Eilert Smith hotel, and it was an experience that will forever be etched in my memory. The highlight of our stay was the exceptional attention and care provided by Hanne. Not only is she lovely, but she was always available to offer advice on restaurants, experiences, and massages. Hanne went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Her dedication and personal touch made all the difference, and I couldn't recommend the Eilert Smith hotel enough because of the special attention from Hanne. This hotel will go down in my memory as the best hotel experience of a lifetime.
Great location for a quick stay a little bit away from the city center. Fun vibe and great sunset! Nice staff!

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the Flor & Fjaer garden cruise, and it was absolutely amazing. The tour was incredible, offering breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere. The food was excellent, with a variety of delicious dishes that exceeded my expectations. The grounds are fabulous, beautifully maintained, and a true feast for the eyes. I highly recommend the Flor & Fjaer garden cruise for anyone looking for a memorable and delightful experience. It was truly a highlight of my trip.
I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a guided hike of Trolltunga, and it was an unforgettable experience. Our guide, Joe, was absolutely fantastic. He was not only fun and engaging but also incredibly supportive throughout the hike. As someone with 54-year-old knees, the descent was particularly challenging for me. Joe was there every step of the way, helping me safely navigate the trail and providing much-needed encouragement. His assistance was invaluable, and he ensured that we didn't miss the last bus to P2. I highly recommend this guided hike and can't thank Joe enough for making it such a memorable and enjoyable adventure.
We were on the smaller overflow boat and did not hear when the Pulpit Rock disembarkment occured. It must have been quick because we were not the only ones that missed it.
Perfect 3 hour Fjord trip. Comfortable plentiful seating. Arrive early to get a seat by the window
I recently embarked on a hike to Pulpit Rock, and it was an adventure like no other. We chose the much more challenging, less-traveled route, which included a canoe trip, scrambling up boulders, and a very long trek. The guides were fantastic and ensured our safety throughout the journey. I must admit, I was terrified at times, not because of my fitness level (although I am 54), but because the route was dangerous at certain points. However, the guides were always there to ensure my safety and provide support. Despite the challenges, it was an incredible experience. That said, I would probably opt for the Nepalese Sherpa stairs next time for a less daunting experience. Nonetheless, this hike was unforgettable, and I highly recommend it for those seeking an adventurous and thrilling journey.
Thank you very much for your extraordinary review. :)
I feel we all had a wonderful time during your journey. Your enthusiasm and kindness is something extremely rare. It has been such a pleasure to assist and reach out while you were in Norway. And your trust during the planning phase was the best gift I could receive.
You have been so brave despite the bad weather, the injured knee, and the challenging but rewarding hikes you have experienced. Those memories will last... Read more
