Our family trip to Greece through kimkim and with our local specialist, Angela (Aggeliki) was outstanding. We are a family of five including three teenagers, and Angela helped us to craft a trip of a lifetime for our family. We identified our interests and budget, and Angela worked with us to finalize a customized itinerary. She was available before our trip to answer questions, and during the trip to help address any issues along the way. Angela went out of her way to ensure that our experiences were positive, connecting us with experienced local guides and drivers. Highlights of our trip included amazing tours of the Acropolis in Athens as well as the nearby Temple of Poseidon, our stay in an apartment with the most amazing view of the Acropolis, sea kayaking and exploring sea caves along the beautiful coast of the island of Milos, and customized tours on the island of Crete where we visited the beautiful Elafonisi beach, visited Minoan ruins, learned about the incredible history and culture of the island, tasted the most delicious food, and dined in the vibrant cities of Chania and Heraklion. We have already recommended kimkim and Angela to our friends, and we look forward to planning future trip together with kimkim!!!

As a family of five, we would have appreciated it if our rooms were closer together. Kids were on main floor, and parents several floors up. Also, no reception available after 9 pm. Also, please note that direct access to hotel by vehicle not possible. Approx. 10 minute walk from driver/ parking access.

Our guide Nikos was outstanding. He went out of his way to understand our particular family input and goals and we experienced an amazing day with visit to Elafonisi beach, local Roman ruins and view of peninsula. We also enjoyed a delicious local Cretan meal together. Would highly recommend this tour with Nikos!!
