Our family had an outstanding 12 day trip to Spain. The experience booking the trip through Kimkim was great, and exceeded our expectations in just about every way. Their local knowledge and availability throughout the trip eliminated the stress and work of planning a vacation, and made it easy for us to enjoy our time together.

Our local specialist, Adam, was knowledgeable and accessible and did good work tailoring our experiences to our preferences and making our itinerary teen friendly. Matching our itinerary to friends traveling on different but overlapping schedule was seamless. I can't imagine how difficult it would have been to coordinate everything on our own.

Our operations specialist, Lea, was very responsive during our trip and usually responded to chats within just a few minutes. She helped with a number of small issues and questions over the 21 days. A mistake with a hotel booking at one of our stops was immediately handled and addressed in the most professional way. Lea is a gem!

A highlight of the trip were the private walking tours scheduled at each stop. Adam set us up with personable and knowledgeable guides that each gave us an experience that would have been impossible if we'd joined a larger group. Ona was our guide in Girona, and we really liked her relaxed and approachable style. Our teens really had a good time with her, and learned a ton about the history of this ancient city.

In Barcelona, our guide showed us around the Gothic Quarter and made us feel like locals. She was clearly well liked by the restaurateurs at the stops we made for tapas along the way, and we felt like we were catching up with an old friend more than rushing from stop to stop on a planned tour.

Ruth, our guide to Alhambra in Granada, did a fantastic job showing us around the grounds and helping us skirt around the crowds. We felt like we were getting some of the smaller historical details that the larger groups don't hear about, which was a lot of fun.

The hotel and airport transfers made moving between our stops much easier with our luggage. Large, clean Mercedes vans were comfortable and the drivers were professional.

Each of the hotel selections were perfectly located and within walking distance of all of the main sites we wanted to experience.

We will definitely be using Kimkim to book trips in the future, and would recommend it without reservation to any of our friends!
