Kimkim Trip Reviews

Total trip was perfect except for the last night in Soweto when the event was canceled without being aware. Guudes were great, activities interesting and unique and hotels beautiful.

Regarding the photo book the pictures duplicated themselves in the ski days, but I do not want them duplicated in the book, please.

From the moment we began planning the trip with Yassine and then Louis, we were off to a great start. They tailored our trip to match our interests and tastes. They answered our questions and messages in a timely manner and provided very good customer service.

Upon arrival in Casablanca, we were welcomed by the amazing Amine whose energy and enthusiasm about our pending adventure was infectious. Amine truly made the trip even more special with his warmth and hospitality. His ability to navigate the challenging roads gave us confidence.

In Fes we stayed at the Riad Mazar Fes which was not only beautiful and comfortable but Siham and Aziz took great care of us. The authentic breakfast was delicious and particularly memorable. Mohamed, our guide in the Medina, was extremely knowledgeable which also added to the experience.

The Sahara desert, from the sunset camel ride, to the glamorous luxury Camp Chebbi, to the sunrise sand boarding, to the very fun quad ride back to Merzouga was a one-of-a-kind experience.

Stephanie and Ibrahim at the Kasbah Isfoula were also great hosts and we enjoyed a great dinner at the hotel restaurant. The charismatic Aziz, our guide in Ait Ben Haddou , integrated his experiences being an extra in well known movies and TV series into the narrative to everyone's delight.

In Marrakesh, our guide Rachid was totally awesome. The cooking class at the Clock Cafe is a must do. Mohammed our chef was terrific and the food we all made was delicious.

Overall, KimKim planned the perfect trip!

To say that I fell in love with Morocco would be an understatement; and I owe a huge debt of gratitude to Hakim for making that possible and for having created an amazingly unforgettable experience for my family!

From the onset of planning, it was clear that he was dedicated to meeting and satisfying all of our expectations, and he continuously exceeded them. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable about both the potential and the limitations of such a trip, but he seemed to have a natural intuition in understanding our vision of what we hoped to experience. As such, his meticulous planning resulted in a finely executed series of events that compounded into a beautiful memory. Not to mention, he went above and beyond in creating an itinerary that was both exciting and intriguing for the adults, and yet still manageable enough for the patience and span of attention of a 4 year old child. To balance the needs of all is no easy task, But Hakim seemed to do so seamlessly.

I would also like to commend him for his very personal service to us. At one point during the tour, my mom had left a credit card behind at a hotel hours and hours away, and Hakim was able to personally return the card to us in another city. We were grateful for his effort to safeguard our property, and continue to be entirely impressed by this gesture.

Hakim could not have planned a more perfect trip for our family, and in doing so has most certainly guaranteed that we will be back— and that we will highly recommend both Hakim and KimKim to anyone seeking excellent service for in their travel planning to Morocco.

I would be remiss if I did not extend a special shout-out to our dependable driver, Mohamed, who was a dream come true from the moment we met. After flight delays, cancellations, lost luggage and an exhausting trip across the Atlantic, he greeted us with a warm & welcoming smile, genuine kindness, and a calming energy, which gave us the reassurance that we were in very good hands. Throughout the entire tour he was endlessly patient— providing us with knowledge, insight and humor. He brought so much joy to my family (my 4 year old daughter, especially) during our long hours on the road. What a gift it was to have had him as our driver for the duration of the trip! We felt extremely lucky to have him, and are very honored to now call him a friend.

Suffice it to say, not only do these men deserve special recognition for their outstanding service, but they ought to be compensated and rewarded— accordingly and generously. We could not have been happier!

The KimKim team is so fortunate to have these immensely valuable partners in its organization, and we wish them continues success!

Clearly, the majority of the accolades belong to Hakim and Mohamed; however, we were equally pleased with many special guides we met along the way: Yusef, Hafeed & Sharif, in particular. Bravo to these gentleman who provided us with brief, but excellent, service, as well!

We went to five different places and everything from tours to accommodations was flawless. We had a wonderful time and I can’t say enough good things about Liz and KimKim. Thank you!

Our itinerary followed our guidelines to be action packed and cover lots of ground. We went to incredible locations and were with great people. We had an agency operator assigned that was available at all hours to answer questions and correct any issues. There were few communication errors but the agency was always very open to dialogue and fixing things. The places we went were AMAZING and we definitely see the benefit of getting a local to organize and plan the best set up. The hotels were aligned (some were great) and the places far exceeded anything we could imagine. We made memories for a lifetime and hope to be back some day

I thought the trip was amazing! Hichom our driver was the best ever! Very friendly, attentive and overall a very nice person. I enjoyed our guides in each city. They were knowledgeable and prideful of their people, city, country and culture. The Mosques were beautiful but we saw a lot of them which a bit much but enjoyed. I would have liked more time to shop at the fine jewelry shops in Rabat and the other market places but there was was some much ground to cover. I kinda felt we were in an endurance race to cover everything but we had to cut out a hike because we were tired from being on the “ go” so much. One to two hour guided tours turned into 4-5 hours which was a bit much at times. The hotel host s were very accommodating and hospitable. Loved the Sahara and camel ride! Just wonderful ! The relaxing massage at the end of the trip was a great way to reset and prepare for the travel back to the USA. Overall, one of my best trips! Had the best time! Thanks to everyone who made this possible. Thank you Hakim for putting this together! -Pam

Our entire Morocco trip was world class in every way. The schedule was well prepared and the guides and the driver chosen for this trip were excellent. The hotels that were chosen for the trip were outstanding with the best customer service that we could get anywhere in the world.

There were only couple of small hiccups with the hotel reservation in Casablanca and the garden tickets in Marrakech but they were resolved very quickly. The guides chosen for the different visits in different cities were very knowledgeble as well as patient in taking us to all the key sites in the specific cities. Our driver was also very patient because my children were sick one of the days and so we had to make some adjustments to the travel plan to accommodate that. We were four of us and so I am sure each of us have our own memorable spots during our travel. For me it was Marrakech and our stay in the desert in Merzougah. Both were outstanding and showed us very different aspects of Morocco. The one aspect of Morocco that we all loved is the people who made us very welcome in every city that we visited. That is testament to the country being a fantastic place for tourists to come to and learn about and understand what Morocco is all about. Even though we did not speak Arabic or French, it was easy to communicate with anyone who dealt with tourists because English was very well spoken and understood everywhere.

Alvaro was a super specialist! We've never worked with a planner before and always did our own travel planning. Ecuador and the Galapagos seemed a little daunting to us, so we enlisted some help. Alvaro's help expanded from just Galapagos to our entire trip. He was always available to answer questions, make suggestions, follow up, check in with us, and send messages along the way as we geared up for our trip. We loved having a virtual call so we could go over what activities we enjoy doing the most and then Alvaro making suggestions and worked on a few revisions to make sure it was perfect.
I was not prepared for the level of support! We had tour guides at every junction guiding us to our next hotel, our flight, greeting us, and helping us check in. Our guides and drivers were all knowledgeable, friendly, and must be the best in the business! I would highly recommend any traveler, even a very experienced traveler, to use Alvaro and the Kimkim team to plan a memorable trip to any locale.

Napo Cultural Center, Yasuni National Park--Canopy tour, guide Sergio
Quito City tour--guide Christian, Cooking class at Alta Mira hostel with Chef Karen

WELL DONE MICHAEL!!!!

I want to thank KimKim and especially Hakim for the wonderful time we had in Morroco. Every day we spent in Morroco was a wonderful adventure, all the tour guides were very knowledgeable. I also want to thank Hicham, our driver, he was just amazing.

Our trip to Costa Rica was a trip of lifetime. Sergio, Charlotte and Nancy were incredibly helpful during the trip planning and while we were traveling.

We had a glitch at the start of the trip due to our flight delay leaving from US, which resulted in extremely late arrival in Costa Rica. The tour team jumped on to help right away to help with re-arranging the airport pickup, hotel and the tour activities planned for the first day.

We have a special needs child with significant food & env allergies and the tour team went out of their way to help with ensuring an accomodation throughout our trip including but not limited to arranging for special food items included in the local tours.

All tour plans/activities/transportations went without a hitch.
It was an incredible trip and we truly fell in love with Costa Rica!
What the country has achived for the conservation was absolutely remarkable!

This was our family's very first big vacation abroad and I am so glad that we did this trip with KimKim and Serendipity (Sergio, Charlotte and Nancy). It will be hard to match this experience for the future trips.

Bryan was extremely patient and thorough when planning our trip. He was able to answer all my questions and concerns, and adjust my plans accordingly. He truly understood what we were wanting for this trip and our experience exceeded our expectations. We had a great balance of cultural experiences and downtime to hang out at the beach and pools. All of our accommodations were interesting and wonderful -- not your average resort. We loved the Poas Volcano Lodge in the Cloud Forest. It was small and intimate, and they went out of their way to make our family feel welcome. My kids declared it the best hot cocoa. Our favorite was La Mariposa in Manuel Antonio. Monkeys were always around and we had a pair of Macaws fly past our balcony every morning. Nearby restaurants are great. Our favorite excursion here was the nighttime rainforest tour. The national park tour is a must, and we had THE BEST tour guide, but expect it to be very slow. Lost Iguana near La Fortuna is a good place to stay, but it could use a little bit of updating. However, the views are the best, great hiking trail and a good restaurant. Our kids liked the heated pool. The town of La Fortuna has a lot of shopping and restaurants. Our favorite events of the entire trip were here: The cultural experience was the absolute best and everyone should be so lucky to do this. Second to that was the Chocolate Factory Tour.

If you're considering using KimKim.com to plan your trip to Costa Rica, do it. Our experience was seamless and wonderful. We will use them again.

This was the second time I used Kimkim to plan my South American trip. Jason was excellent in organizing everything from Beunosaires, El Calafate and peuroto natales to Punta Arenas. The day of ESTANCIA CRISTINA was the highlight of our trip!!! Even if there was hiccup he took care of it. Only improvement I might suggest is a packing list before trip might have been helpful.

We ended up using Kimkim for an additional land based trip in Patagonia to compliment our Antarctica cruise, and most everything went off without a hitch. We were either texted or messaged regarding all our transfers, and even when our flight ended up coming in earlier than expected, our driver was there within minutes. My one comment would be I need to learn how to pack lighter as one of our domestic flights didn't like my carry on size. Otherwise, I'd say it was truly a great experience, and we will remember trekking in El Calafate for years to come. Emi and Ana were great and patient with all my questions and planned a memorable time! Thank you!
