Kimkim Trip Reviews

Catherina is amazing. From the preliminary agenda until we were on the plane she was on top of everything. When changes were required she made them, was solicitous of our comfort and in every way fabulous. JJ and Renee were equally impressive and did everything to make our trip enjoyable. Renee returned the room key that I forgot in Belize, JJ helped me through a bit of stomach upset. All of the birding guides were extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend that folks our age split birding and ruin watching into two days. It was 104 degrees the day we did it and we cooked. The reef in Belize is still beautiful, but showing signs of bleaching, more's the pity. All in all, it was one of our best trips. Kudos to Columbus travel.

Mystic River Resort

San Ignacio

Sited in the jungle with balconies looking down on the river, Mystic River Resort is beautiful. For bird watchers like ourselves, there are over 250 species of birds on the property. The first morning a summer tanager dropped down to the railing when I walked out to claim her share of the banana bread (which hotel staff had brought to our door along with delicious coffee). The rooms are large and comfortable with both a fan and a fireplace. (A little too warm while we were there for the latter.) A very nice outdoor dining room with both hummingbird and platform feeders providing great interest especially in the morning. The staff are pleasant and solicitous of your well being. A thoroughly pleasant stay.

Again a huge switch, since this hotel is literally on the beach.

There was no need of fan or air conditioning although a conditioner was provided. Palapa style office, dining room and cabins. Very intriguing! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay there

Andrea and Guilia were outstanding both in planning and providing support during the trip. They very quickly understood what kind of vacation we wanted and worked closely with us to create it. They had immediate solutions for the few minor problems that arose while we were in Sicily.
Every activity and every guide they booked for us was terrific. Special kudos to Lilly in Taromina and Chiara in Palermo, whose knowledge of and pride in their history and culture made every minute special for us.
We have travelled quite a bit and used various resources to plan our trips in the past. We were extremely pleased with Andrea and Guilia who consistently went above and beyond our expectations.
Thank you for a fabulous trip!

Our driver, Reda, did a fantastic job navigating and preparing us each day. He was great with conversation and with listening to what we wanted. We would recommend him to anyone.

The KimKim team put together a great custom itinerary for us. They adapted to our time table and the things we wanted to see and put together a good balance given we had limited time.

Our last day wrapped up with Oussama taking us to the airport and explaining many of the sites and history along the way.

Tiago and his team were excellent guides and advisors about the best things to do in and around Lisbon. We recommend this team highly and will certainly make use of them on our next trip to Portugal. We loved the insider views of the Alfama district and the Fado evening was especially fantastic. We also appreciated the restaurant recommendations and amazing parking skills. Thanks everyone!

Mohamed was patient as I was full of questions regarding Ramadan and the changes during that time. He had excellent recommendations, put my mind at ease about safety and transportation. I had an idea of many sites I wanted to see and he incorporated it in his recommended itinerary with ease. Great hotels and tours, I will definitely use Kim Kim again. If ever in Morocco, Mohamed will be the first person I contact.

Amanda played a pivotal role in making our trek through the Annapurna region unforgettable. Her knowledge and enthusiasm for trekking in Nepal were evident from the start. She provided invaluable insights and recommendations, ensuring our trip was tailored to our interests and fitness levels. Amanda's professionalism and responsiveness made the planning process seamless and stress-free. Her coordination with the local team was impeccable, allowing us to focus solely on enjoying the trek.

Special shoutout to our trekking guide and porter, Chhepal and Furi, who were truly outstanding. Their expertise and knowledge of the terrain enhanced our trekking experience immensely. They were attentive, supportive, and always made us feel safe during the trail. Also, the accommodations provided along the trek were fantastic. The lodges were comfortable, clean, and offered breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes.

We're immensely grateful for Amanda and the team for an exceptional service and support. Thank you for an amazing adventure—we can't wait to plan another trek with you soon!

We had a successful trip to Bolivia and Chile in March-April 2024. We would attribute that mainly to the good work of Kimkim's agent, Camila. First, Camila laid out a comprehensive itinerary that covered all the highlights of the two countries. She then helped us customize the itinerary to suit our preferences. The result is that we saw the best of the two countries the way we wanted it and within our time frame. We had the pleasure of meeting Camila in person in La Paz. She is knowledgeable, experienced, courteous and responsive.

Uyuni Salt Flats was amazing & I enjoyed the day spent on the flats. Accommodations at Hotel # 8 Jardines de Uyuni and Hotel # 10, Mallku Cueva Hotel, Villa Ma were not upto par.. The king size double bed was too large for the room that there was hardly any room left to move around the room or put the luggage resulting in having to put the luggage on the bed.

Other than that, the tour was well arranged & the guides were very professional & knowledgeable.

Mar did an amazing job setting up the lodging, transportation and activities for our dream anniversary trip. She took into account all of the things we love to do and see. The hotels were spot-on both in amenities and location. The transportation was smooth and seamless. One of our favorite activities was the private floating fjord sauna experience in Fläm! Absolutely envigorating!! The details worked out by Fenne were also seamless. We never felt stressed or worried about where to be or how to get there. We had one glitch in that a gondola was not running on the day we had tickets for it. A quick message to the local expert, Julia, via What’sap assured us we would receive a refund and that we could continue on to our next location earlier without having to wait out the 5 hours that had been allotted in our travel for the gondola trip and area sightseeing. It actually gave us more time to explore Bergen on a rain-free afternoon that was perfect. All communication throughout the process was very timely and very clear.

Beautiful location with a view of the fjord. Very clean, comfortable and spacious. A cute lodge feel. The hotel made a lovely break in travel and we enjoyed the Viking beer tasting dinner and Aegir the associated brewery.

My trip to Italy was truly a dream come true! It is the first trip my husband and I have been on (childless) since we had kids over 10 years ago. At first I was very overwhelmed and had no idea where to start, I was also apprehensive about using KimKim as I had no previous experience with them. I have to say, that moving forward with them was the best decision I made.

Irene was exceptional. She was extremely professional and knowledgable. Even with all my questions, fitting in my cousins wedding and a late itinerary change, she accommodated them with ease. She worked with my budget and her suggestion for tours were perfect. Everything from our hotel transfers and hotels were top-notch.

We visited Venice, Florence and Rome. We took her up on her suggestion of taking a day trip to Sienna and we are happy we did. As I mentioned, the tours she booked for us were perfect, and so happy that she did them for us. As you can imagine there are many tour operators, but from what I could see, the ones we went on were all very organized and the guides were so knowledgable and passionate about their cities. I have to recommend LivTours in Rome because the groups were small and you could tell our guides had much experience with the information they shared and how they navigated us through the crowds. We did the Vatican museums and Sistine Chapel one day with Veronica and the Colosseum and Forum Grounds with Lorenzo the following day. I am so happy we did them, we learned so much and got such amazing photos.

But our favourite would have to be the Food and Wine tour with Guilla from Devour tours in Trastevere. It was great to see how the locals eat and what to look for when choosing wines and restaurants during your visit to the many restaurants and cafes in Rome.

We did a lot in 10 days and I don't believe that we would have been able to plan it as smoothly or would have been as enjoyable if Irene did not plan this for us. It was truly customized to us and that is a service that is so hard to come by nowadays.

I couldn't recommend this company enough! I am already saving for our next trip hopefully to Greece and I will definitely have Irene plan for us.

Great service and a brilliant holiday. It was self guided but useful to have Christina and the team on hand to clarify any doubts during the trip. Highlights were dog sledding in Røros, being in Bergen and Flåm, but all of it worked well for me and my family (7 and 8yo daughters).

Overall we had a wonderful experience visiting Japan. We were 4 senior adults, one with a bad knee problem. We notified Angel well before our arrival and except for one guide our expectations were either met or exceeded. Before the second day of our Tokyo visit I notified both Angel and our guide for the day, Michi, that we had been informed that wheelchair access to the Nikko Toshugo Shrine was not available. Both Angel and Michi had ample time to modify our schedule. However, we ended up that day spending over5 hours in our vehicle while visiting a lake and tourist trap for which we paid an additional entrance fee of $40 per person. We were not given any options for that day either by Angel or our appointed guide, Michi, who did not offer us any potentially more enjoyable alternatives.
We found that during our trip planning, that Angel needed to be prodded into appropriate responses to our questions and concerns thus creating some overall doubt in her abilities to create the seamless, quality experience on the ground that we had been used to with Kimkim. Our doubts were justified through the experience described above.
Otherwise our KimKim experience met our expectations and we immensely enjoyed our travel in Japan. Our guides and drivers were professional and enjoyable. The transportation schedule was well planned and booked properly.
We will certainly consider KimKim again when planning travel.

Justine was amazing...terrific, flexible and easy to work with. There were some issues with prepayments that we encountered but Justine took care of those for us. I think it would be helpful to have one zoom prior to the start of the trip to understand all of the bookings. We had an issue with Hertz that was due to not understanding what was booked. I'm sure it was in writing somewhere but there was a lot of verbage to go through...sometimes it is easier to discuss the info. Overall, just great!

Everything was wonderful!! From start to finish, the trip was well planned. Our driver Moha, was AMAZING! His knowledge, and kind nature made our trip one of a kind. The Riads chosen were beautiful and a nice variety. The excursions were awesome. Riding camel’s throughout the desert to our campsite was a favorite! The food everywhere was spectacular.

A special thank you to Justine and Eva for responding quickly to our questions regarding schedules and transfers from airports and hotels.
Maeve, our tour guide, was most informative, friendly, supportive, and just a gift to spend time with. We enjoyed every moment of each of the attractions and sites.

Thank you to KimKim for creating such a beautiful experience for us.

Barbara and Bill Killeen

KimKim did an excellent job working with my wife to incorporate the places she wanted to visit in Morocco. The selected locations and overnight accommodations were perfect for our trip. The hospitality at each was top-notch, with a special shout-out to Badar at Riad Dar Farouzi. During our travels, we had several terrific guided tours, with Syed's tour of Fes as an exceptional standout. Our driver and guide, Sallam was excellent and he wore so many hats along the way. With great knowledge of each city and town, we drove through, he knew the scenic stops, good places for lunch, answers to our many questions, a good sense of humor, and not to mention a bit of a celebrity.

Nepal was really lovely

Pros:
1. they took care of everything!
2. the guide was really great.
3. The first hotel called Hana lo was excellent.

Cons:
1. It was smoggy and visibility was minimal in the places we trekked.
2. The reason we used kimkim for the first time is because we are terribly busy with work this year and dont have time to research and book ourselves. In response to several queries like, where to get SIMs etc, we would get a web link guides. Which is exactly what we were trying to avoid by using Kimkim. So would suggest in the future answers like "at the airport after exiting immigration" than a website blog.

Just back from a 9 day trip to Costa Rica (Arenal/La Fortuna, Monteverde, and Manuel Antonio). Loved the guidance that Serendipity Adventures provided us both before our travels (thanks Holden and Nancy )a we trip planned, and appreciated the support locally from Wilman while we were there. The entire experience was both spectacular and seamless, from the rental car agent meeting us at our hotel, to the various guides that met us as planned on the different parts and locations of our amazing adventures (wildlife, ziplines, thermal baths, coffee plantations, and Pacific beach time to name a few). We appreciated having the peace of mind of a local contact for the trip as questions arose, as well as an after hours emergency contact number as well (which thankfully we did not have to use). The trip itinerary was detailed, and very easy to follow, and allowed us flexibility as we self drove from various parts of the country. Pure Vida ! Thank you!
