Our first trip to Croatia was an absolute success!! Thanks to our specialist Roberto, every detail was planned to our needs. Because it was our first Croatian experience we had no idea what to expect. Roberto made the unexpected amazing and easy flowing. From self drive, hiking, island hopping, history tour and driver guide, all well planned.
Easy transports, accessible and central accommodation according to our budget. The hosts of the accommodations Robi booked us with where all friendly, helpfull and very accomodating. Reliable drivers to and from the airport. Guided tours, excellent and knowledgeable.
Passionate people.
Thank you Robi for putting our puzzle together and for making our trip effortless and amazing. We would recommend Roberto for anyone planning a Croatia trip. Thank you Robi!!

Our trip to Iceland was the third trip we have used Kim Kim to plan. We have never been disappointed. Adam was so helpful in putting together a trip that reflected us. He made sure we were prepared for the weather, the driving, and anything else that might come up. We appreciated how he put together a trip that was geared for us and not just for anyone going to Iceland. He offered several options for us, and we did several of them and enjoyed every one of them. The hotel accomodations were perfect and the breakfasts were wonderful. I'm glad he included one rather unconventional type of lodging that let us experience a differnt style of overnight that included a very interesting film about a local soccer player. He did run it by us before making the reservation so we would know it was a tad different. Great way to end our evening. Our last night accomodations in Reykevik were in a perfect location - close enough to walk to some fun local spots, and a short drive to the airport. Adam also made sure we had the perfect rental car for driving on the roads in the northwestern area and in the mountains.

We absolutely enjoyed our trip to northern Norway! Mathia was great to work with and we even got to meet for coffee during our trip! He was very professional and proactive in arranging everything and also quick to respond to weather conditions affecting certain activities, making changes, etc. Best of all- we got to see the northern lights! Thanks Mathia!

10 Breathtaking Days in Croatia - Organized by Roberto Pincevic (Robi)
My wife came across KimKim and Robi to help us put together our planned trip to Croatia.
Croatia is great and the people are awesome and is a story and Life experience for another chapter.
Out trip was organized through Robi. From the word go he established what we had in mind and what the budget was. (Being from South Africa our Exchange rate is not favorable towards the Euro.)
Everything was planned and executed perfectly by Robi and team to make our visit as comfortable as possible. He checked in with us every day, gave suggestions of things to do and places to go, with prices, pin drops and whatever we needed to find our way in an unknown country and cities.
We had the privilege to have Robi as our guide for one day through the Peninsula and areas on our way from Corčula to Dubrovnik and his knowledge about Croatia is amazing, and in combination with his positive energy makes the time spent with him one off the highlights of the trip.
In Dubrovnik he organized a city tour guide, Antea, who gave us a very interesting tour through the city of Dubrovnik.
The method of payment through the KikKim system was executed smoothly and we had no problems whatsoever at each of our destinations.

If we ever have the opportunity, we will go again and will encourage anybody to go and experience Dubrovnik and the people of Croatia. Was great to experience a piece of Croatia and the proud people off Croatia.

Our trip to Scotland was a great experience. With the assistance of Stephen, we were able to see all parts of the Scottish highlands , hiking many beautiful trails hiking over 113 miles, having wonderful meals, and first class accommodations each night. In particular I want to mention the Geographer restaurant in Ft William which was the best meal of the week, and Mahmoud in Liverpool at The Hard Day's Night Hotel for his exceptional service. The airport shuttles were excellent, the car rental was excellent, really everything went as planned and we had a wonderful trip. I will certainly be looking to use KimKim again if/when I plan my next trip to Scotland or other locations they service. Thanks Stephen for all you assistance in making this a trip to remember for a lifetime.

Incredible 10 day trip to Morocco. Despite some unexpected and unavoidable natural occurrences (extreme flooding), our driver Samir Gemmaoui and Ali were attentive and solved problems on the fly to make sure we felt safe and accommodated. From the start, Ali helped us curate an itinerary that worked within our budget and timeline - quick to respond and helpful with recommendations. Throughout our journey, our driver Samir truly made our experience unforgettable. He was respectful, kind, punctual and made us feel as if we were on a journey with a friend showing us their country. Could not have had a better experience with Samir.

We particularly had a nice time visiting Fes on a guided tour with Sharif. Our Riad was spectacular and a one of kind experience.

Lyon

I didn't quite enjoy the Lagrange apart'HOTEL. It felt more like an extended stay place for students or nurses, which was a stark contrast to the beautiful B&Bs we had been staying in. The carpets were stained, and it just didn't match the charm of our other accommodations. Plus, being right in the middle of downtown was a bit overwhelming.

Guided Tour of Annecy

Annecy

Annecy was absolutely beautiful. Even though my wife was feeling unwell and it was raining, we still managed to enjoy most of our walking tour. The guide was great, and the town itself is picturesque. We could have easily stayed there for several more days. It was just that charming.

Had a wonderful time in Japan. Can't thank Elenor enough for a very thoughtful plan and for the extra support while on the trip.
Both our guides in Tokyo (Yumi) and Kyoto (Yuki) were delightful and very knowledgeable. Nara was a highlight as we loved the temples and the deer.

My wife and I were looking to visit Portugal for the first time as a pre-trip before spending a week in Greece. Joao was incredibly helpful in capturing our wants and needs and incorporating everything into a wonderful experience in Portugal. His hotel bookings were perfectly aligned with our wants, and the detailed planning for our day trips were amazing. I would highly recommend kimkim to anyone looking to book a wonderful travel experience. I will use them again in the future for sure.

Our trip to Portugal was wonderful. We worked with Tiago from Kimkim in planning and booking our trip. Tiago was terrific to work with. We exchanged numerous texts and also had a couple of phone calls with Tiago, and he listened to our interests and he made several suggestions in planning our very memorable trip. We flew into Porto and the next day we had a half day guided tour with Manual. Manual was really great. He was very knowledgeable about the area and really fun to be with. We then drove from Porto to Lisbon and made a few stops along the way that Tiago suggested. In Lisbon, we had a two guided tours wit Joao. The first day Joao showed us the many sites within Lisbon. The second day he showed us around the many interesting sites outside of Lisbon. Joao was really great and made sure we hit on all of our interests. After two days with Joao, we felt like we made a new friend. We then drove to Lagos and toured around the Algarve. The Algarve was beautiful and our only regret was we needed more time in Lagos to enjoy and relax on one of the many beaches, Every aspect of our trip went off without any issues from our pick up at the airport, connecting with our guides, our hotel reservations and our car rentals. Tiago was available anytime we had a question or issue and he followed up with us several times to make sure our trip was going well . We would definitely work wit Tiago again if we make another trip to Portugal.

Veronika was amazing. She wasn't just available prior to the trip but she answered promptly when we needed help and advice as some of our flights and travel plans had issues. We were always impressed with her availability and smooth ability to shift plans for us.

When we started the thoughts of going to Austria I reached out to a company ( KimKim) that I never heard of. It took us awhile to finally say yes we’re using this company. Tomaz was very patient with me while we made our decision to use them. Once we made the decision Tomaz was wonderful picking out places to see and places to stay at. We had 4 of us that were traveling. . We flew into Vienna and stayed a few days then picked up a rental car and drove to Salzburg & Hallstatt. We stayed there for a few days & on to Munich for a few more days. Tomaz was so good at giving suggestions of sites to see. We were then handed off to Zala who made the reservations for hotels and sites to see. She did a great job of putting together the times, directions to the places and all the tickets. Directions were easy to follow and we never felt lost. Every thing we saw was amazing. She was always responsive to my emails that I sent her frequently throughout the trip. The only complaints we had were the hotels. While they were in great locations and nice places to stay they were not our idea of 5 star as we requested. Rooms were small and only queen size beds. My suggestion would be to throughly review your documents on the hotels. We had to upgrade in Vienna, at our expense. And in Munich they had king size beds but our agent did not book this. The hotel was fully booked so we could not get an up grade. Our room was so small and no mirror in the room, not even a chair to sit on the do my hair or makeup. Our friends who traveled with us got a larger room. Still only a queen size bed. Both the men in our group were over 6”. So check your reservation’s thoroughly. We would give this company a 5star. But go over your itinerary really closely because we probably could have had things done differently with the hotels. Thank KimKim for a wonderful vacation.

Our trip was amazing. The sights were unexpected. The water reminded us of the Caribbean. There was always some sight to see. The Diocletian Palace and the Castle (Grad) of Dubrovnik were highlights, especially if you are a Game of Thrones fan. Plitvice Lakes is a must see. The weather didn't cooperate, but it didn't dampen the experience only our clothes. Spending time in Ljubljana was worthwhile. It is a small city but is worth at least two days to see the sites. It is also is a good jump off point for a trip. When you travel with Tarun, you are traveling with a movie star (check the opening scene of The Union). He is also on the Slovenian cricket team. So, you know he has stories to tell while you on the road between sites. He showed us the Logar Valley which was spectacular and wasn't on our radar as a place to see. I can recommend Tarun without reservation.

Not one day has gone by since the end of our trip without some reminiscing of our time in Morocco. We cherished every part of our experience in the country, and cannot wait to return and explore the rest of it. All of our guides were friendly, but our driver, Mouad, who was with us through the entire 10 days, was a standout as an extremely personable and helpful guide.

Because of the floods we had to cut this entire experience short and also didn't have the chance to stay in the camp we had originally booked. We loved our experience in the desert, but are on the fence about recommending Oasis Luxury Camp. There were some cleanliness issues (toilet seemed used when we arrived) and the food was not the best. However, it is hard to give an accurate assessment considering the heavy rains the entire area experienced.

All of our guides were top notch. Very knowledgeable and very kind and gracious. We loved them all. Apollo and Labrina were magnificent as were the guides for our wine tasting tour in Athens but I can’t remember their names. By the end of the tours we became good friends with all and enjoyed very meaningful conversations getting to know about each other and the country of Greece as well as sharing our about our country. Having private tours are priceless
