Kimkim Trip Reviews

Francesca did a great job of being available via phone or text during our vacation if we had any questions or wanted to make itinerary changes on the fly.

I think main problem was selection of hotels. Their locations were right in the busy place with no access by car. On Saturday Drivr left us to block away from Moon sun hotel Loan. We had to log our luggage. We had the similar problem when we came back in Lisbon to Behotelisboa hotel.where hotel was more than half kilometer away from parking spot. Cars were not permitted in front of the hotel.
For Tuk ride, we could not find the driver. We called number on the seat and was told this is a porto branch number and they could not find our reservation. We arrived at the location at 4.05. We even talk to other Tuk driver. They tried to help and call the local number as was mentioned on the voucher with no success. It was really disappointing.

A great experience for our family of 5 visiting Italy for the first time. The week was planned expertly with how we like to travel. The hotels and guides were memorable. August is very hot so be prepared. Very authentic experience( the food was so good!) and I highly recommend kimkim to anyone traveling. Looking forward to using Martina again for Northern Italy in the future!

Enjoyable evening spent in the Museum.

Hotel L'Orologio

We had stayed at this boutique hotel before (14 years ago) and liked it so much much that we requested to stay there on this trip. While the hotel was still visually interesting (the interior decor), the hotel had undergone renovations and our hotel room (the same room as 14 years ago) looked very different. It was no longer split-level and had a lot less space. Otherwise, the stay was okay. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful.

Italy

This was the last day, we had breakfast, checked out, were driven to the airport for our flight home. Everything went smoothly! Great trip, but just very hot and humid in Italy in August!

The accommodations were great and the trip itinerary and arrangements were seamless making our trip very enjoyable and relaxing. Zeta was very attentive and responded to our requests in a timely and efficient manner.

We have taken seven trips with KimKim, and Leo was one of the best, if not the best, hosts we have had. His communication and follow-through were the best yet. We had hotel complications, not because of Leo, but I called him directly, and he fixed everything immediately and was so easy to get a hold of while traveling. He knew the trip guidelines well, we like to go out of the box, and he would let us know when ideas weren't that great and offered other ideas that I didn't think I would like but LOVED! I usually don't want to get a rental car or drive over 5 hours on a trip, but Leo said that's the way to go, and he was right. It was great having our car and doing all the national parks/ recreation spots we could fit in from San Fran to Las Vegas. Thank you for being the most wonderful travel planned we have had so far with all of our Kimkim trips.

Each and every place we visited was amazing and memorable. Clemens, our travel agent was virtually with us every step
Of the trip. We visited 4 countries and without the travel agents help, I don’t think we could have managed it all by ourselves. Everything from train tickets to hotels to excursions were handled by Clemens and he did a fantastic job. He had booked good hotels for us. We had everything we needed in a click. He was available on whatsapp all the time if we needed some change or some assistance. Thank you Clemens and kimkim. This was my second endeavor with kimkim travels and I will certainly go back to them again be it Morocco or cough America trips in future. I would give 10/10 for our trip.

Sara was incredibly responsive. She answered every question I had in a timely manner, and when there were logistical problems she worked to quickly solve them. She tailored our trip to our unique interest. We enjoy being in nature and the energy of a vibrant city. We would definitely work with Sara again.

Our trip to Ireland was memorable. We enjoyed the places that we picked and ones that were recommended. The most interesting and genuine guide was Arthur in Galway! Truly pleasant to walk around the town he grew up in and still resides. Agnes our driver( twice ) was exceptional! She even added a sight to Rock of Cashel which we were grateful to fit in before returning to Dublin.
The one area of concern was communication issues. The phone number we were given didn’t work. What App was also confusing to connect for us. We would have liked to have our transportation easier be confirmed .
Overall, the trip was a good one giving our family a week of wonderful memories!
The Angelastro Family

Sandy was super diligent and thorough in planning our trip. She was very communicative and fully understood our requirements. All the events in the itinerary were top notch and appropriate for what we wanted. Both leading up to finalizing the program, and during the trip, she was on top of the itinerary and we never felt the need to reach out to her first - she would always proactively do so! KimKim and Sandy were the best - we'd highly recommend!

My trip to Italy was my first experience abroad, and I had a great time! Elisa at KimKim was exceptional in her organization and exhibited high service excellence. A couple of minor issues were quickly and uneventfully resolved, and Elisa showed empathy and interest in our experience. The itineraries were terrific, and I learned a lot each day. Elisa responded to questions in a timely manner and I felt well cared-for from her end.

I have never used a travel agent before, and this was a wonderful experience. I am already thinking about a return trip to Italy, and I will consult with Elisa again!

I could never have made these arrangements at these prices, and I would have been flying blind if I tried. I’ve put together big family trips without agents, and it does not feel like vacation when you have to worry about all the logistics. I’m a worrier, but Kim Kim made Indonesia nearly care-free! Transfers, accommodations, tour bookings… plus they provided a SIM card, a pre-trip briefing, and were always available on WhatsApp if questions arose. I’ll be using them again and worrying even less!

From Castelo S Jorge in Lisbon, then Sintra with its fabulous Palacio de Pena to Cabo de Roca, then walking along the westernmost point in Continental Europe, then Cascais along the harbour, we had a fantastic time. Our guide Anabela was thorough and lovely, and our driver Rui, were both wonderful! Tiernan, our local specialist provided us with a great 4 day itinerary.

We had an amazing holiday in Finland, thanks to careful planning and organising by our rep Emerson. He was attentive and responsive to our requests and created a tailor-made itinerary for us. He was also very helpful and attentive during our trip too. His choices meant that we enjoyed a wide variety of activities, locations and experiences which is just what we wanted from the holiday. We even made a day trip to Tallinn, Estonia, only a couple of hours away by ferry from Helsinki. We loved the vibrant cities of Helsinki and Turku, balanced with the opportunities to be surrounded by the nature and wildlife in Rovaniemi, Pyhä and Äkäslompolo. We enjoyed the overnight sleeper train to Kolari and found all our transfers to be very smooth and easy. We enjoyed our time with all the guides, who were friendly, knowledgeable and kind. This was especially so in Äkäslompolo, Rovaniemi and Pyhä and they added to our whole positive experience. Our accommodation was always first rate and there we enjoyed the wonderful Finnish breakfast selections plus access to the saunas, another great Finnish ritual. The weather was pretty good throughout our trip and we enjoyed perfect temperatures for us to sightsee and do the planned activities. We are very happy with the holiday we had in Finland and thank Emerson and KimKim for a great experience.

We had such an incredible time. It was such a relief to know KimKim had coordinated the logistics perfectly - we really didn't have to worry about a single thing. We absolutely loved spending time with Beatrice in Venice. She made our trip really special. Thanks for everything.

What a fun and beautiful country! We really enjoy the outdoors, and kimkim and Eliise provided excellent adventures for us. We saw Bergen, explored Stavanger, and canoed then hiked up a secluded trail to overlook Pulpit rock. We highly recommend the tour!!

We had a great time. Veronika listen carefully to requests and plan to trip that was just our pace. We got to see lots of stuff without wearing the kids out too much. A personal favorite was the ice cave tour with Federico. He was funny, knowledgeableand fun and we had a great time learning about glaciers.

We really enjoyed our time in Vik. It was a beautiful little town and it was nice too stay in the same room for two nights in a row. Restaurants and supermarket were very close to our room, so it was easy to pick up extra food etc.

For us, there was just enough hiking to keep things fun and interesting without wearing us out on any particular day. Hotel accommodations were what we expected in the free breakfast each morning was nice.

Both the All Blacks experience and Whale & Dolphin Conservation Safari and Auckland were great. Hobbiton was simply amazing and wish we could have spent even more time there. We enjoyed Te Puia as well. Queenstown was really the icing on the cake. The Rees was an incredible resort and so extremely helpful.

Visiting the Baduy people was a unique experience. We did a bit of hiking to get to their village, and it was fascinating to see how they live in such a natural state. The Baduy have an inner and outer tribe; while I couldn't visit the inner tribe due to special permissions, the outer tribe was still very traditional but slightly more modern. It was great meeting the people and interacting with the kids.

Ziplining at Tegallalang Rice Terrace

I wouldn't do the ziplining again. It turned out to be just one short zipline that goes back and forth, which wasn't as exciting as I had hoped. I was expecting multiple long ziplines, but it was quite underwhelming.
