Kimkim Trip Reviews

Nice room, beautiful grounds and views! Sunsets were amazing. The breakfast was delicious. A nice stay.

Personal care and detail extraordinare! The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Rooms were above and beyond our expectations! They had every amenity you might possibly need. Especially if you’re traveling with kids, which we weren’t.

Dated room, dated building, old and tired looking. Rude staff. Would have left if we could.

Change the description of this please! As a catamaran lover, we were extremely disappointed to find that our “sailing” trip was in truth, riding on a packed rubber Zodiak! Passengers were packed neck to neck straddling the center like a pony! Again, not at all what we were expecting. The cave tour itself was neat, but the rough bouncy ride there was anything but.

Unfortunately this was a disappointing experience. The guide was late picking us up, and he arrived in a very old Toyota 4 x 4 that was already full of people. Two ladies were seated in the back cargo area! The driver and several other passengers were smokers who made a point to stop along the way for smoke breaks, I kid you not. All the while we are driving toward the lookout point for the sunset, it is getting later and closer to sunset. The driver ended up rushing to arrive in time before sunset! The views were beautiful though!

This personal guide tour was very enjoyable from start to finish! Our guide was so informative and interesting, and interactive that it made the tour more memorable. He told us so many interesting facts and stories (even personal ones from his family) that made our understanding of the history of Lisbon come alive. We highly recommend!

This was really a fun experience! Another way to learn more about the history and culture! Had to be brave to try certain things (bacalau!) but we were there for the pasteis de de Nata!

This was one of our favorite days of our vacation! Our guide, Nuno, made the trip. He was a genuinely nice and kind guy who made us feel special! From stopping by a local pastry shop on the way, to taking us on a secret hike to get a fantastic view of Pena Palace, he was the best! As a photographer, he even took a number of photos of us all day that he shared. He prepared us a picnic lunch to cap off the most memorable day!

As introverts, my husband and I were a bit apprehensive about doing this. But we are so glad we did! Thanks to Bea for the suggestion! The hosts Sofia and Carlos made us feel so welcomed in their home! They are genuinely kind and gracious hosts! Carlos cooked chorizo over a flame which was an experience in itself! Sofia is an excellent cook, and made a delicious cuttlefish stew that she and Carlos had caught themselves! The dessert was incredible too—a cap to a wonderful evening.

The front staff were great, both friendly and informative. Rooms were comfortable, but a little rough in spots, such as cabinets in bathroom coming undone or the multiple mysterious stains on white wall that look like had not been cleaned for awhile.

Nice hotel. Breakfast was great. Pool fantastic. Really close to the Falls. Room a bit small for King size bed and AC blew annoyingly in our face throughout the night.

Great views of the beach.

Great place to see Amazon. Staff were great our guide was super informative.

Our Guide Orico was amazing. He was informative, friendly and dedicated. Orico goes out of his way for his tourists.

Edwin was a great tour guide. He took us all around Rio, while giving us both a history and culture lesson of Brazil.

Just brilliant. Nothing is too much trouble for the guys running the camp. Everything was fantastic. The fresh lemon juice was unbelievable, and the campfire was adorable. The boss guy is incredibly knowledgeable and really interesting to talk to about Desert blues music and the history of the Berbour people.

They are in the middle of new ownership and they need to finish their construction before I would recommend. The grounds are great though!

This is more like a B&B, but that is what's charming about it. Very clean and well maintained. The food is great, and an excellent value! We ate all but one of our meals there.

Nice float and our raft guide was excellent.

It was fun and we'd do it again with a different trail(s). We could have done without the "back 40" mud drive, it was not very big and not that interesting. Once in the mountains, the views were amazing, but not much of a chance to enjoy (eg slow down, pull over, etc. It was more about the ride than the scenery.

Fantastic experience, the nature reserve has well maintained paths and structures.

Great guide, very patient and upbeat.

We can't review because our Serendipity manager was not very attentive, he seemed disengaged and not too effective at his job.

The easy entry and overall efficiencies getting to and entering the La Sagrada Familia were great. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The tour of the other Gaudi locations could have been shorter. We tried to end the tour early--we were tired-- but it didn't seem to be an option.

The location was beautiful, information interesting. Unfortunately, the guide was a distraction. She said she was a trained Opera singer and preceded to sing at inappropriate times. She also had exaggerated gestures and was a bit over the top, really. When we'd try to cut sections short, she was insistent that we had to follow her lead. Our driver on the other hand was wonderful. Excellent, safe driver.

For all of us, this was a superb location to visit. Just what we needed. The tour guide Veronica?-- was the best! Mature, knowledgeable, entertaining. Perfect fit --History teacher--for our interests.

Beautiful setting, interesting tour. Eating lunch here was my idea but it wasn't as special as I hoped. The lunch at the vineyard on the way to Leon was much better and felt authentic.

The exterior of the museum is the reason to visit. We were disappointed in the exhibits.

Theresa was enthralled with the whole experience. So this rating is for her.

We skipped this tour. We only toured the church which was great for Theresa.

We only toured the palace. Guide was fine but again we were finished before she was.

We loved the Tuk-Tuk tour! Perhaps because we were finally off our feet. Seriously, the tuk-tuk and guide were perfect. Entertaining, efficient, and the tour was just the right length. Great combination.

It wasn't overly clear where the "Adults" pool was located but heard it was worth it! Unfortunately, we missed out. I would take an extra day or two here to just chill instead of spending the extra days we did in Buenos Aires. This tranquil. luxury property located in the heart of the rainforest is a must-see and spend the extra time just taking it all in.

Beautiful property but located a fair distance from town if walking and super expensive and we had to check our bill repeatedly as we were charged for a bottle of wine as opposed to a glass and the orders were messed up all the time on bills! The property itself is stunning. Would most likely stay in town at another property if I were to return.

Had a wonderful and quick stop at this quaint boutique hotel. The staff were AMAZING. Gave great recommendations for food places to go and it was in a great location.

Everyone was easy to talk to and seek assistance. I love the ambiance, the aesthetic, and the location of the hotel.

The hotel was absolutely spectacular! From the view of Chefchaouen, to the amenities', as well as the service were amazing.

The hotel's aesthetic is absolutely stunning and authentic while the service is friendly and accommodating. I loved the breakfasts served. Thank you.

The experience was amazing! The facilities were clean and comfortable to think that we were in the middle of the desert. We enjoyed the ambiance as well as the program after dinner. Thank you.

The hotel was an oasis after a long travel. Thank you.

We enjoyed the scenery and the assistance provided by the assigned guides.

The hammam was a bit disorganized and felt the place was not equip to handle all six of us in the group. Only 5 of us were given beds immediately after the hammam. Although this was later rectified, I was already almost dry before I was given a bed (I replaced one of my companions and did not know were she was taken after accommodating me). The massage was great. The masseuse did a good job at relaxing my muscles. Sadly, when we were about to leave, the hammam and massage place lost my companion's personal slippers. She had to borrow their lent slippers as we went back to our Riyad. Later, her personal slippers were returned but were still wet.

New and modern accommodations, a nice breakfast, and a friendly, helpful staff. The hotel was a little off the beaten path, but we were able to walk to the center of town, though getting an Uber was often more convenient. The location on the water was nice!

The hotel is certainly pricey, but its location in the park was well worth the money. We could walk out the front door and immediately start trekking. It was also a warm and welcoming place to rest after a long day of adventures! Our reservation was "half-board," and the breakfasts and dinners were exceptional. Every staff member we encountered went out of their way to be helpful.

Seeing penguins up close was amazing! Although all visitors to the island are required to stay on the paved path, we never felt herded or rushed. The walk was self-paced, and a number of guides were spread out during the walk to answer questions and give more information.

This trip was disappointing. Our tour was for just the four of us, but the small SUV we rode in required that one of us sit up front with the driver, while the other three sat in the back, with someone in the middle seat. Not ideal for looking out the windows, which was a big part of this driving tour. Two of us were native Spanish speakers with good English, and two of us were native English speakers who know a little Spanish. Our guide was fluent in Spanish, but his English was definitely not fluent. The result was that he spent 90% of the time conversing with the Chileans, and much less time talking with the English speakers. It was frustrating when we had questions. That being said, we visited some beautiful parts of the park, places we never would have seen if we had been driving on our own.

The route was amazing and so was Pedro, our guide!

Full disclosure: The day we took this tour could not have been wetter. It poured rain the whole time, and everyone on the boat was soaking wet before we were finished. It limited the views of this incredibly scenic place. The windows were steamed up, and most people never went out on the decks because it was raining so hard.

We were greeted warmly as we arrived to the hotel and this was nice as we were definitely tired from the long flights from the states. Wonderful breakfast the following morning!

A wonderful small boutique hotel with a nice view from our hotel room. The front desk lady ( I don't remember her name though) was very helpful. She provided me with a package of throat lozenges and hot tea as I was feeling the affects of our long travel day to Croatia! She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome to Zadar!

The Hotel Ambassador was truly our favorite hotel. The service was wonderful! And the view from our hotel room was amazing!! We had a wonderful balcony looking out at the Sea where we were able to enjoy a drink with the beautiful view!! Niksa ( a server at breakfast) helped to make our mornings wonderful as we enjoyed the delicious breakfast! The special breakfast items that could be ordered ( not on the buffet) were delicious!

We loved the small and quaint island of Korcula, but the Aminess Korcula Heritage Hotel is very tired and needs to be renovated! The rooms are extremely small and the bathroom shower is way too small! I would suggest guests are not booked at this hotel until the renovation can be completed!

Beautiful hotel with wonderful views from our hotel room as well as the Cave Bar! We actually enjoyed not staying in the walled city - It was only a 10 minute Uber ride from our hotel to the walled city. We went to the walled city to walk the walls as well as for dinner one evening when we were in Dubrovnik. The hotel is confusing though to navigate the floors for the hotel rooms, breakfast, etc. It took us a couple days before we understood the layout of the hotel!

We definitely recommend touring the Plitvice Lakes Park - absolutely beautiful!! We really enjoyed having a private guide - Ivana (our tour guide) was very knowledgeable and helped to make our experience so enjoyable. She was able to show us areas and give us information on the park that would have been difficult if we didn't have a guide!

We loved this experience! The staff at the Ante Sladic Winery made our experience very special! We were able to meet the wine makers ( Ante and his grandfather, Yure). We even were able to take photos with both of them! Simon did a wonderful job of guiding us through the wines he was serving with the homemade lunch!

We had a morning walking tour of Split with a private guide, Mirna, She was very knowledgeable as we walked through the Diocletian Palace ( lots of great information about the history of the Palace and the Roman Emperor Diocletian) and the downtown area of Split. She was also able to give us suggestions of other areas of Split we could tour later in the afternoon ( the Marjan Park with beautiful views of Split).

Our day on the island of Hvar was one of our favorite days! Grgo, our tour guide met us when we got off the catamaran boat ( coming from Split). We had a wonderful day as he drove us around the island visiting many of the small villages and learning about the history of the island of Hvar. We ended our day enjoying a lunch at the Matkovic Winery ( Grgo's family winery) with a homemade lunch made by his mom and enjoying the wines. We did not spend anytime in the town of Hvar. As Grgo suggested, it was more enjoyable to see the more remote areas of the island!

We had a couple hour tour with a private guide (Ivana) in the walled city in Dubrovnik. It was important to have the tour to learn more about the history of the walled city. So when we returned to walk the walls, we had a better understanding of the history of the city and its amazing walls!!

We really enjoyed our morning time by ourselves on the quaint island of Korcula! In the afternoon, we met our guide, Damir at our hotel and he drove us to the Lumbarda area for a personal winery tasting at a local winery. Since we travelled in late Oct to Croatia, many of the wineries were closed for the season. We enjoyed the small winery tasting and tour but it was our understanding that we would be touring a couple wineries with a pasta dinner at one of them ( that was what was stated on our Trip App). After we visited the one winery, Damir drove us back to Korcula and we had dinner with him. We would have preferred enjoying dinner by ourselves since the 2nd winery was not an option.

Super fun to be able to go Kayaking in the Sea! We enjoyed our guide, Mislav. He was full of great information and very funny!! During our kayak trip, we stopped at an old island of Vrnik ( with an old limestone quarry). Super cool to see that and learn more about the history of the area!

Montenegro was spectacular!! We were so happy that we scheduled a day tour to see the country!! Our guide, Mirjana was wonderful. She was so very knowledgeable -we toured both Perast and Kotor! The small boat trip from Perast to see the "Our Lady of the Rocks" old church was wonderful! After touring Kotor, we had a choice to have lunch in the town of Kotor or take the cable car to the Forza restaurant at the top. We were so happy that we chose taking the cable car and we loved the beautiful views and the lunch from the top!!

The cooking class and experience in Konavle at the Kameni Dvori family estate was a wonderful way to spend our last evening in Croatia!! The guides and family members (Nike and Katarina) made the experience of helping to cook our dinner so much fun ( we made homemade bread and pasta)! And we had lots of laughs with the 2 other guests that we met! We even walked through the family farm to pick vegetables and fruits for our dinner!

This is a great place. It is beautiful and the service is unsurpassed.

This is a Hilton Garden Inn. They are the same all over the world, we could have been in Omaha. Service is an afterthought. The food is mediocre. The target market is large tour groups.

The hotel is beautiful, the service exemplary, and the food delicious. Be sure to book the pool for a private hour-long swim. Book the other spa services early. The location is perfect. Step outside into the old blue town. There's a view out over the city.

Ambiance was great. Nice hotel!

Great location, design, breakfast. Excellent customer service

Very beautiful hotel with great breakfast options

Very informative and interesting tour where you het to know Vietnamese culture and history

What a beautiful place! Must visit for great pictures

Wow, we had such a great time during this tour. Very beautiful scenery around, easy hike, amazing lunch spot which we absolutely loved!

Absolute must do while in Sapa! Very interesting and beautiful place! Go early in the morning for the best views without clouds

This was my favorite day in Vietnam! I didn't want it to end and would happily repeat this trip again! Such a lovely, beautiful place. Very friendly people. Delicious food

Older hotel - a bit hard to find due to the tower comples

lovely place, enjoyed to public bath (after we gathered a little courage)

Classy well appointed and nice accommodations close to everything . The only thing I didn’t like was the shower. An old bath tub jacuzzi set up that you had to step high to get into. Not a good barrier for water spraying out either. Many Americans don’t bathe we shower. Otherwise great in location , views, hospitality service.

First we were so lucky to have great weather. sunny and temps in the 70s everyday. You can’t plan that. I am a history buff and I love Ancient Rome . Our guide Mariapaola was amazing. Every sight was a wonderful journey into the past . She was so informative and interesting . I can’t imagine anyone nicer or better to have as a tour guide

My favorite of the trip. This is right in my wheelhouse. I love ancient Roman history and this typifies it for me. Mariapaola is a superb tour guide. Love touring and viewing the forum and colosseum . It’s the best
