Kimkim Trip Reviews

Great accommodation in a beautiful part of the Pantanal. A fantastic programme of activities enabling us to get the most out of being in this very special part of the world. The amazing wildlife of the area was always all around us, even in the Pousada itself. The food (and the caipirinhas) were also excellent.

A great introduction to this fascinating city. Doris was a brilliant guide.

A truly unique and captivating experience. Beautiful location. Friendly, patient staff.

Fascinating and awe inspiring.

A truly memorable experience. Highly recommended.

Relaxing and beautiful. A great way to get really close to some of the incredible bird life of the Pantanal.

A truly memorable experience. Highly recommended.

A hidden oasis centrally located in Siem Reap! We loved the pool and the room was amazing. Plus the prices were super reasonable!

Amazing location on the end of the Koh Tao beach. Easily walkable to busier areas with a free shuttle from the pier yet still a bit more relaxed. We loved the onsite restaurant (servers were very friendly + food was solid) but also easy to walk to other options

Tour guide Nick really got to know us and was able to make slight tweaks to the itinerary to suit our desires!!! He was very friendly and the best tour guide we had on the whole two week trip

Such a great experience! Our guide was very friendly and allowed us to provide input into our menu since we were the only couple participating. The food turned out great and we had an awesome time. Can’t wait to take the recipes we learned and make them back home

I was a little apprehensive booking this since I didn’t see too many reviews for it and wanted to make sure it was ethical. Turns out, it was an amazing experience. They talked about how they used positive reinforcement to work with the elephants they had onsite (3 females). We had an opportunity to feed them, wash them in the river, and make them a nutritious snack using local natural supplements.

Dices were great and the dice masters were great as well. Visibility wasn’t perfect the day we were out there but can’t control that. Had a really fun time, thanks Nina!

The hotel is located within the walls of an old fortress. Within the wall it is surrounded by a restaurant and art galleries. The area is particularly attractive. The hotel itself is a modern design with carefully appointed rooms with patios/lawns outside your door. Breakfast is quite good with an abundance of choices for guests. There is also an airy bar on the premises with friendly staff. A very nice restaurant is just across the entry courtyard. The central location of the hotel allows guests to walk to most of the sights, shops and restaurants.

Comfortable hotel . Staff were not very upto speed and appeared a little lost

Staff very friendly

Unforgettable building and A1 staff. The building is quite old but has been tastefully renovated with AC and comfortable beds and a spacious bedroom. I doubt you will have ever stayed in a bedroom with higher ceilings - quite a unique and beautiful feature. The daily breakfast was tastefully presented and with numerous options sure to address whatever your breakfast desire is. for security reasons, you are buzzed in 24hrs around the clock at the front door(not easy to find initially). the front desk is attentive and prompt with opening the door - nice when it is raining. One small observation - the shower works well however the shower base is level not providing a quick draining shower floor. not a large issue. Consider bringing your USB plugins as we had none in our room. It is in an old part of Curitiba and therefore not that close to many amenities. The municipal market(must see) is about 20 minute walk away. We used Uber to get to the things we were interested in.

Staying at the Viale Tower Hotel was a good experience. The location was quite close to a presidential hotel or palace, which was interesting to see. However, I felt that the hotel could have been better situated, perhaps nearer to transit, shopping, parks, or other attractions. Despite this, we used Uber for our commutes, which made things easier. Overall, it was a comfortable stay, but I would consider the location more carefully next time.

The Windsor Palace in Rio de Janeiro was fantastic! Its location was superb—just two blocks from the beach and close to a great park and numerous shops. We really enjoyed our time there and appreciated the convenience of having everything nearby. It made our free days in Rio much more enjoyable as we could easily explore the area. I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone looking to stay in Rio.

The staff treated us like royalty. It was clean...washcloths, soap, water all available in the room. We had a delicious dinner in the main restaurant that was one of the best meals we had in Nepal. Great hotel to spend our last night in Nepal.

We only stayed one short night while being transferred from Rajasthan to Muunar. The hotel was clean, and the staff was friendly. The best part of the hotel is the rooftop bar/pool area with a large-screen TV. Breakfast offered both traditional Indian and Western fare.

The hotel was great, but we were here at the tail end of the prime season, so it was quiet (not necessarily a bad thing). In fact, we were redirected from one of the restaurants that was supposed to be open. The hotel sits perched on the side of one of the mountains and is viewable from the tea plantations and town below. The views from this hotel are AMAZING, and the massages are good also. The rooms were just the right size, and the staff was friendly.

We were told the houseboat would travel through the canals, allowing you to see the small villages. What actually happens is you boat out from where you board for about an hour with about 10-15 other boats, some of which passed within touching distance. Then, you boat the hour back and dock next to a house where the boat can connect to their electricity. While our cook and captain were friendly enough, they spoke little to no English, so my husband and I couldn't really ask any questions about what we were seeing, what we were eating, etc. Also, while there are lights on the boat deck, they're quite dim and a funny color (pinkish?). As a result, we ended up going to be quite early. If we were to choose again, we wouldn't do this again.

This was our last stay for our two-week visit to India. Forte Cochi is such a cute hotel with a lot of character! Our room was spacious and clean, the beds were very comfortable, and the staff was outstanding! The hotel is also located in a cute part of the city with shops all around. We will definitely stay here again.

We stayed two nights at the Metropolitan Hotel & Spa while in Dehli. The hotel was clean, and the employees were nice and attentive without being overbearing. We ate breakfast each morning at the restaurant, which had plenty of Indian and Western options. The only negative aspect of this hotel is that the Wi-Fi connection was adequate in the common areas but spotty in the rooms.

Our stay at the ITC Mughal was very nice. The hotel & rooms were clean, comfortable, and spacious, with many options in common areas for exploring and lounging. The staff was friendly, and the breakfast included in our stay was a massive buffet with Indian and Western options. We also got a massage while staying here, and it was well-priced and good.

Several friends from India recommended Chokhi Dhani to us. So, in fairness, I don't think we had the right expectations when we arrived. We just trusted their recommendation without much research. Chokhi Dhani is a resort modeled after a traditional Rajasthani village. Each room is designed as an individual "hut/house." In the evening, the grounds around the rooms were dimly lit, and few people were eating in the restaurant or outdoor buffet area. I'm guessing that most guests were next door where the shows, activities, shopping, and traditional Rajasthani restaurants are located. However, the dim lights and sparsely populated grounds were offputting. Regarding the activities next door, they were okay, but they seemed kind of cheesy. If you were visiting with children, I think it would have been more fun and interesting. Also, when we entered, we were told not to tip the performers, yet we had several who directly asked us for tips. The activities and shows are free, but it's an additional cost if you want to eat. It wasn't terrible - the rooms were clean, and the service was good. It just not what we had anticipated or wanted.

We stayed two nights at the Royal Heritage Haveli, and our room was HUGE! Built in the 18th century, they have done a very nice job of remodeling the building while keeping its integrity. The hotel is quiet and tranquil because there are only 18 rooms - a nice retreat after sightseeing all day! We ate one dinner and two breakfasts at the hotel, all of which were tasty.

Amazing!!!!!!! Cassidy our tour guide was so sweet and informative. The food was delicious and it was nice that the group was small. I would take Cassidy’s tour again!!

Beautifully renovated boutique hotel overlooking the water in Vieux Lyon. Perfect location, incredible service and delicious food. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Lyon!

Wonderful location - close to all sights but also a bit out of the way of the super busy Vieux port areas. Modern with all the amenities and a great breakfast. They are doing renovations but that did not disturb our stay. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful.

Very welcoming and unique wineries and a wonderful guide. The scenery was beautiful and wine was delicious!

Very informational and beautiful tour of Vieux Lyon. Our guide was wonderful and took us to all the hot spots.

Our guide was so friendly and took us to some unique locations that were outside of the super busy areas. Food variety was great and fueled us for the walk. We also learned so much about Marseille and enjoyed the views.

Gorgeous views and delicious wine. We enjoyed the beautiful market in Cassis and the very in depth wine tour in Bandol. Our guide was so knowledgeable and welcoming and the drive let us see so many different parts of Marseille and the countryside.

Fabulous dinner

Amazing views of the the blue city

Peaceful oasis in the Medina.

What an awesome way to view the night sky!! The view from our dome was amazing!! We had all the comforts of home. The owners were great. Patrick knew we were looking for off the beaten path kind of sight seeing. He gave us directions to “Danseys pass”. Wow! Is all we can say. A one way gravel road that allowed us to view the mountains of New Zealand. Our glamping experience was awesome!!

NLH is in an excellent location. Easy to walk around for dinner and attractions. Only minor issue was the noise at night from the street below.

Great location with inconsistent but adequate parking options. Suite #7 was nice, although the door was only about 5 feet high. Breakfast was outstanding.

Good location. Staff very helpful and reasonable price for our laundry. Not hard to walk into town.

Messene was an unexpected gem. It is a BIG site which really let you feel the extent and layout of the town.

Perfectly paced and hit all the right places. Our guide (Maria) was extremely enthusiastic and on top of things.

There are not enough stars to rate this activity. It was the best of our trip. The olive oil tasting was interesting and the guide was a professional who explained how she did her work. The tour of the facility was good. The meal after the tasting was the best of the trip. Incredible home cooked food!

The guide was very knowledgeable and really explained the site and its significance. Could not have been better.

Hitting the highlights of the Acropolis and Agora with a strong tie-in to mythology. Very interesting!

Delphi was interesting and worth visiting.

We definitely had interest in Archaeology and the site fit that bill well. Many folks might not like that it was just an excavation site, but that was part of its appeal to us. The guide helped explain what we were seeing.

Large scale!

This site is older so you have to use your imagination a bit more outside of the tombs. However it is well worth visiting.

Good lunch and interesting talk about local life

I nice walk along the coast.

plane delayed, didn't make it

A nice tour of the site and a winery. Really multi-course excellent meal.

Very much worth taking in!

The Hotel has an excellent location in the center near the lake.

One of the cave was closed

Not only was our driver Maximo skilled he was also extremely charming. He drove us to the village where my grandparents born. Once there, he also served as a de facto interpreter as our contacts in the village spoke about as much English as I do Italian…

Our driver John Franco was quite skilled, and his English was perfect

Our driver, Angelo, was extremely skilled, which is necessary to tackle the winding and congested route along the Amalfi coast. He also was quite a character, serenading us all along the trip. It was like being in a Venetian gondola…

Our tour, Laura, was friendly and amazingly knowledgeable Labour all aspects of Sorrento. It was very private tour…just my wife and myself.

The tour was a small group tour of 6 individuals. Our tour side, Alexando, was extremely knowledgeable and provided amazing insights regarding the Vatican and Sistine Chapel

This was, I believe, the best tour of our trip. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable of all aspects of the coliseum and Ancient Rome.
