Kimkim Trip Reviews

Our guide Stefano was outstanding

Best of a great trip

The hotel was in a very good location, and we felt very safe! I wouldn't have changed it at all.

This hotel is in a very good location, and we felt safe. I couldn't mention anything bad about this hotel choice. It was great!

Very special experience. The rooms are unique. The restaurant has great breakfast and the dinner menu is excellent. The hosts are amazing. Very relaxing and peaceful.

Valentina is a wonderful host! The three story home with the rooftop terrace is a truly gorgeous remodeled row home in the middle of Arles' old district. It's within walking distance of several butchers, markets, and boulangeries, and the weekly Wednesday market. Valentina came in on request twice while we were taking mini-trips around the south of France to clean up and refresh our towels/bedding.

This bed and breakfast is incredible! We had the upstairs room with the private terrace and Juliet balcony. The shower is modern, the bed is comfortable and I literally am trying to find the linen sheets on the bed to buy them for myself. The hosts were so kind and the breakfasts are HUGE - you won't need to buy lunch. 😅

Loved the resort. The spas were wonderful, the location was great and the food and service was wonderful. The property was amazing. The room was huge! However the decor was a little cold/sparse for the size of the room.

The view from this hotel is spectacular! This is a beautiful hotel. Waking up to that beautiful view in the morning, with the birds flying by our porch, monkeys in the trees, and butterfly's everywhere is truly a unique Costa Rica experience.

Loved our stay at hotel Ficus. Room was very spacious and comfortable. There is no air conditioning, however they did provide fans and the temperature at night was very comfortable.

This is a unique boutique hotel with great artwork everywhere.

Gorgeous views!

There are two choices- petting a koala or holding a koala. Both choices are only 1 minute long while they take pictures, but be sure you book the experience that you want. We wanted to hold the koalas but had booked petting the koala. Did not know there were different options.

Fascinating particularly if you like the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings movies or books.

Take the complimentary tour. This is an other-worldly experience

Spacious and well-equipped room that was centrally located but quiet. Helpful staff.

A beautiful setting but the amenities (like the spa) were lacking. The breakfast buffet was awesome.

Great location and the hotel had real character. The room was small compared to the other hotels we stayed at on this trip but surprisingly quiet given it was located on a busy pedestrian street.

Best hotel ever! From the bell man coming to help us navigate construction around the hotel to the enthusiastic staff every single interaction was positive. Great location on pedestrian square within easy walking distance to all the sites. We had an amazing room.

Great airport hotel.

Friendly driver with reasonable knowledge of city and its history. We really got around and covered much more of the city than had it been a walking tour.

Day was amazing! Mostly because of Paollo the guide. As a Sinatra local, he knew all of the best places to see and visit. Took us to a few Lisbon locations we had not seen on Tuktuk tour that enhanced our understanding of the history and culture. Beautiful scenery. Unique lunch experience. It’s hard to believe how many towns and views we saw over the course of the day.

A great tour of the obvious sites and tourist attractions. Friendly and knowledgeable guide.

An incredible day. A smooth and enjoyable drive from Porto with a friendly and enjoyable guide. The boat ride was nice but not incredible as the hour length only allowed for a short trip around the bend. Wineries and tastings were terrific and we ended up buying a few bottles of our favourites. We had not booked a lunch in advance and guide Joao made us a reservation at Aneto which was the perfect stop and lunch spot for us.

A great way to see the city. E-bikes made for effortless travel to sites beyond what we would have walked. Seville is very bike friendly and the guide was friendly and attentive. Had been told on itinerary that tour was 3 hours but guide adamant it was only 2.5 and ended early.

This was the only activity on the trip that we didn’t enjoy. For no reason other than it wasn’t a genre of music we enjoyed (had little knowledge leading up to experience). Was too mournful and intimate for us but there’s seem to genuinely enjoy the experience.

This hotel was in a great location. The rooms were small but very comfortable. The breakfast offered by the hotel was very good and had a large selection of different foods. Baixa can be a loud section of the city and we had to keep our windows closed during the night to keep the noise out. This wouldn't affect my decision to stay there again.

Lovely hotel in a fairly convenient location. Their breakfast was exceptional with everything you can imagine on the buffet. Water pressure and temperature control in the shower was an issue but I would stay at this location again.

This was the coolest place to stay. We had views of the castle courtyard from our room. The breakfast buffet was very good with several choices. The hotel staff were extremely helpful and obviously love their jobs in the castle. We would definately stay here again.

The location of this hotel turned out to be perfect once we got our bearings in the city. The bed was extremely comfortable and the room was clean. The "breakfast" was rather disappointing, especially after the fantastic breakfasts we had at all of our previous accommodations. We were surprised to receive a box of milk and juice and a cellophane wrapped bread with jam. The coffee was freeze dried and tea choice was limited - no nespresso!

Fantastic tour and tour guide!!

Our guide was very knowledgeable and took us around the city to see all the sights. I was disappointed that we did not really go "in" to any sights - only one church. We simply "walked by" everything. Our tour did include tickets to go into the Monastery in Belem but the lines were so long that we opted to pass rather then spend an hour standing in line. Having a prepaid tour should have included some priority placement in the line. Also since this was a full day tour it would have been nice to have the meal included. We paid for our lunch and for the guides meal too - While I didn't mind paying for the guides lunch, it seems like this should have been made clear at the purchase of the tour.

We loved our guide. Jorge was fantastic and was very knowledgeable. The picnic he prepared for us was so cute. This tour only included the entrance to the castle. It was a nice long hike.

This was a lot of fun and the coast line that we saw was magnificent.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and took us on a great walking tour of old Porto.

The guides on this tour were amazing. This was a great food tour for the northern parts of Portugal.

Our guide was fantastic! We were fortunate to have a great group of tourists and a fun day together driving to the Douro valley, visiting the wineries, having a meal, enjoying the scenery and taking a boat tour.

We had the top floor and it had amazing sweeping views! Everything was clean and the hotel reception was accommodating and helpful. The only few tiny drawbacks- it wasn't easy to find (but luckily the hotel was expecting us and saw my husband looking lost in the courtyard, ha!) The windows all open for a nice breeze but there were some small red bugs so we didn't leave them open much. But it was very central, it was a neat building and the view was amazing.

We had a beautiful room with the cutest balcony ! We loved this room and it was very spacious to spread out.

This hotel was so kind to have a nice bottle of Greek wine and Baklava for us to celebrate with! We loved the view of the Parthenon from the roof top restaurant and as a bonus- hotel guests get a discount! The room was comfortable and the breakfast was really nice!

We had the best time at this hotel!! We had a suite on the bottom side of the hiking path so it was much more private, the view was so amazing that we canceled our afternoon driver to just enjoy the room and view! The pool was too cold to get in but it was nice to sit by it. We had a hot tub on our balcony and enjoyed that too (a little cold for the chilly evenings but refreshing after hiking) the location was IDEAL. It was far enough from Fira and Oia to not deal with the crowds but close enough to walk there when wanted. The breakfast each morning was amazing. I miss it already!

This tour was absolutely fantastic. We started with a visit to a Parmigiano Reggiano cheese factory, followed by a Parma ham factory tour, and then headed to Modena for a balsamic vinegar tasting. Our guide, Georgia, was exceptional—she answered all our questions and never made us feel rushed. George, our driver, though his English was not as fluent, was very engaging and informative during our drive. We learned so much and enjoyed tasting the cheese. It was a really fun and informative day.

This was probably my favorite part of Rome. The food and wine walking tour of Trastevere was fantastic. The area felt up-and-coming and hip, which was a nice change from the crowded tourist spots. We got to explore the neighborhood while tasting delicious food and wine. It was a really enjoyable and relaxing experience.

The catamaran cruise in Santorini was absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond to make my birthday special by surprising me with an entire cake and singing to me. The thoughtful touches were incredibly impressive. The cruise itself was beautiful, and we even got to take the cake home. It was a memorable and delightful experience.

Great location; easy walk to bus stops and train station. Pleasant staff, tidy room, and good breakfast. Would definitely stay here again.

Great locations and amazingly comfortable beds. Set up if the bathroom was a bit odd (more style over function).

Perfect B and B other than very loud traffic if windows open. The host of this BnB, Luigi, was the absolute nicest person and couldn't be better in his role. Cleanliness of the room was amazing. Massive, nice bathroom. Cute patio to eat breakfast on. Tasty breakfast delivered daily. A bit of a hike to the main area of town (15 minutes), but definitely manageable. There were soundproof doors for the patio so when closed there was no issue, but if open the traffic on the street was really really loud. All in all I would probably stay here again as the noise and long walk were only minor inconveniences.

Amazing. Simply amazing. Getting out of the city and into the Tuscan countryside was a highlight of our time in the area. Van was comfortable, our guide, Christina, was great, and the vineyard tours and tastings were wonderful. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend this activity! Our guide gave a nice overview of Venice history and culture and then brought us to multiple locations where we learned interesting history, then stopped for wine and cicchetti. We learned so much inside info from our guide that made the rest of our time in Venice better. She helped us to know how to navigate the city, where to go to get a more authentic Venice experience, and provided us with tips and pointers we utilized that vastly improved our time in the city. The tour was private, for just us, and that allowed for a nice pace and personalized experience.

Was an efficient way for us to be able to take in this site. Recommended.

Greeted with a glass if wine the second we stepped on to the property! Nice unique location with beautiful view of Vesuvius. Lunch and tastings were delicious.

Highlight experience for us. Staff were simply amazing. So glad we didn't opt for a simple ferry ride to Capri, as time best part of the trip was the views and stops along the way. Swimming in the Mediterranean Sea!! Several on the boat did get seasick so I strongly recommend some meds if you are prone to that. We had a few hours to explore Capri, but like I said that was the least enjoyable part of the trip. I cannot say enough good about this operation and their staff. Would do this again in a heartbeat even with the seasickness!

A bit far away from restaurants and city center, Windhoek.

Stargazing and the silence at night is a plus. The tents are drivings distance from restaurants. It is one hour drive to Sesriem.

Just in front of the beach and walking distance to restaurants.

The view from the rooms is breathtaking.

The waterhole in front of the rooms is a good point for birdwatching and animal photography. The have a tour to a hide for photography and birdwatching worth the time!!

We stayed at the waterhole rooms, which is a plus. Animals come drink at all hours day and night: elephants, jiraffes, rhinos and others.

100% recommended!

We booked leopard tracking and were lucky to see 2 of them!

Cheetahs are well taken care of.

Great hotel. Only problem, they were doing renovations.

Nice hotel in good location!

Best guide on this and she was our driver. Diane Clark was a great guide and let us determine what to do if we wanted.

The guide was great and very knowledgeable.
