Amazing Trip to Costa Rica
Costa Rica

Feb 10 - Feb 16, 2023
Would have given 4.5 stars if that was an option. Overall everything went smoothly and we had a wonderful time. We especially liked the raft float with Walter and the bird watching tours at Rainforest Adventures with Charo and CATIE Botanical Garden with Jorge. The hike on Turrialba Volcano with Eileen was a highlight. The grounds surrounding Ara Ambigua hotel and Guayabo Lodge were beautiful.
We wished that our KimKim specialist had better understood that in our 70s we were not up for... read more

Trip to Chile
We had one of our best vacations ever thanks to Erin and her team at Kimkim.
Everyone of our airport transfers were waiting for us when we cleared customs and baggage claim and drove us to our destinations giving us good information regarding that region of Chile.
The hotels Erin selected were excellent with nice rooms, good locations for exploring the cities, and great breakfasts.
The activities that were scheduled for us were both challenging and interesting (kayaking,... read more
Tour Guide, Driver & Down Time
Cambodia

Feb 5 - Feb 15, 2023
Our guide and driver made our trip comfortable and fun. Both our guide and driver made us feel a part of the communities that we were visiting.
Mr Sarun was responsive and more often proactive. For example, when we were purchasing souvenirs he was right with us interacting with the seller and us to make sure we understood the cost.
Sarun taught us key Khmer phrases such as, Sour Sdei for Hello, Orkun Chroeun for Thankyou. Often when we used these phrases the Khmer people asked if we... read more
Dear Corrie,
Thank you very much for taking the time to write detailed comments, and complete every part of the feedback form. It is very helpful, and the more detail, the better!
I'm glad our guide made you feel part of the community, and also you got to learn a little Khmer and practice it. It's always guaranteed to generate a smile from the lovely Cambodian people!
Thanks also for sharing the comments about the tour programme and down time. It's very hard to gauge when planning a trip as... read more

We are very happy with the trip and looking forward to returning when I have more vacation time available. The Egypt based team handled everything for our small group. From hotel check-in & check-out, baggage handling, visa processing, and airport transfers, the Egypt Promotions team provided constant assistance through all of the processes from our arrival in Egypt, transfer to and from Jordan, and return to the U.S. We felt very safe, and confrontable the entire time in Egypt & Jordan.... read more

This was my first-time using Kim Kim for my travels and I was impressed with the entire process. Mathais was quick to provide information and was very knowledgeable. Milton was an amazing guide and we really enjoyed spending time with him on the first part of our journey. The staff on the Galaxy was also nice. Enjoyed the entire process and plan on arranging another trip to Ecuador in 2024 to see more sites. read more

Jan 21 - Jan 28, 2023
We've always planned our own vacations, but this time decided to get help with Tricia and Kimkim. It was one of the best decisions we could have made. The vacation that Tricia planned for us was tailor made for us and was truly the trip of a lifetime. Everything we did felt like a personal experience, the guides and folks that we met were amazing. The adventures and experiences we had were things we couldn't have done without Tricia's help. It was a trip that we won't ever forget. read more
I'm so delighted you had a memorable time!! You have an adventurous spirit and I had a lot of fun helping you along the way. Thanks so much for trusting the process and making the most of your Norwegian experience. All the best to your and your family. Hope we reconnect again someday :)

Natalia did a fantastic job! From the time we arrived in Buenos Aires to our departure 15 days later, it was nothing but perfect. The guides in all five locations were quite knowledgeable. I would recommend this trip to anyone that wants a full Argentina experience.
Dear Gretchen,
I'd like to thank you a lot for taking your time in reviewing your trip to Argentina.
It's been a pleasure for me to help you design this itinerary and I love to read that everything went well during your stay in our country.
Looking forward to welcoming you again any time soon! 😊

I'm so glad I found Kimkim and got to know Tom. He's such a lovely person, planned our trip and tailored it to my liking. Because we planned it very last minute, it was a little rushed but Tom was able to accommodate to my last minute changes such as the dates etc. Our accommodation and activities were booked by Tom so it was really convenient and easy for us, and he got back to me really quick whenever there were issues I needed help with.

The hotel choices were excellent, well located, safe and clean. Ximena and Melia took great care of us while we were in Mexico. They were easily available via text when I had questions. They were in touch with our transport and local tours guides all the time, so well that they could give us 5 minutes notice. As in "your transport... read more

The itinerary that Mathias put together was well coordinated and thought out. The activities varied from the active to the intellectual. Milton was a fantastic guide who was knowledgeable about Ecuador in general and the Andes in particular. He was helpful, patient, and flexible changing plans to accommodate our needs. He went out of his... read more

When one of us left her sunglasses on a shared ride van, Nara was very responsive and contacted the transport provider who found and delivered the sunglasses to us!

Feb 4 - Feb 11, 2023
The great: rafting trip
The good: Hotel in San Jose; The pick -up
The marginal: everything else
Especially frustrating was that nobody talked with us the history, culture and traditions of Costa Rica. So we spend a week and learned nothing except for reading in Wikipedia read more
Hi Leonid,
Thank you for the information shared with us about your trip.
I am sorry to hear that you didn't receive as much information as you might be expected from some of the guides about the local history, culture and traditions, if we have known in advance that you were really interested in this, we would recommend different activities in some areas so you could know a little bit more about our traditions.
Fortunately, it looks like despite this, you enjoyed the trip that we organized for you and your friends.

We had never been to Colombia before and in fact some friends asked us why we were going there. Felipe, our local specialist was very attentive and on each leg of our trip we were met at the airport by a greeter and a driver (very welcome on our arrival at 4:00am). Anytime we had a question through Watsapp, Felipe or a member of his team would reply within minutes even late at night. For each transfer Felipe confirmed the pick up details and gave the name of the people meeting us. We are now... read more

What an incredible trip. I have had some terrible experiences with Travel Agents in the past, so I was hesitant to work with them again. With such a logistically complex trip, I am so happy we decided to work with Jason.
Firstly, his recommendations and guidance ahead of the trip ended up being very key. With so many places to visit in Patagonia, Jason took the places we knew we wanted to visit and crafted an itinerary that mixed that with his know-how of the region. What we ended up with... read more
Hi Jeff,
Good to hear from you and I am very happy to see you had a great adventure. You managed to do a lot in your available time and while the journeys can be sometimes big, the memories live forever. I appreciated you took the time to chat with me as it makes an immense difference in helping to understand your own preferences and then creating a framework to deliver them. I am glad you have renewed faith in travel operators. Please contact me for any future adventures in Latina America and glad to have made friendships with you both. Jason.

We had a wonderful trip to Costa Rica thanks to Olman! Our itinerary was just the right mix of adventure days and relaxing days. The hotels and activities he suggested were perfect for us, and it was so nice to have all our transportation arranged. Highlights were ziplining in the cloud forest at Monteverde, sunset catamaran in Tamarindo, and staying at the Tabacon hot spring at Arenal.
Hello Jessica,
Thanks a lot for your kind words.
I am so happy to know that your family had a great in the tropics, looks like you enjoyed each destination you visited.

Ravi was extremely helpful in sorting out our 8 day trip between Mumbai and Delhi. He arranged for 4 different hotels, excellent guides and all transport. We never felt alone, although we also enjoyed the intrepid nature of moving from place to place. We saw fantastic temples in Khajuraho and Bhopal. The safaris were all good (although the lack of wildlife is a reality). Our drivers did their utmost to find a tiger- and we finally got lucky. Our train trips were fun, and the drivers taking... read more

Pros: Service and convenience was great. Simplified the process of planning enabling a relatively last minute vacation (2wks notice) without the planning stress. Curated options for hotels and activities to simplify. Responsive to chat messages. All the tours and transfers and hotels showed up on time.
Cons: Price points of hotels, activities, and travel agent services ($320 that they tell you at the end) were high vs. booking oneself. Guessing 10-20pct more expensive on my 2wk trip. ... read more

Dear Robin and Ken,
I'm so overjoyed that this very special vacation became a very special memory. It's a delight to read your review and hear about the details along the way. I know how meaningful your ancestry to Norway is to you, and this trip was an important way to pay tribute to that connection!
Christina is working on connecting with you an Iceland specialist, and I will message you to begin discussion on your Norway 2024 trip. So glad this is not goodbye for us :)

Everything was very good to excellent. All the local guides were good. Rutas360 in Atacama is merely a "middle man" to the local guide companies so that made it a bit challenging to know who to contact, but it all worked out. All the transfers to and from the bus stations and airports worked well, as did all the airline reservations.
My only minor issue was some of the hotels. The Doubletree in Santiago and the airport Holiday Inn were both very good. Don Tomas in Atacama was... read more

Wendy was very responsive to our needs regarding our itinerary and settled on a 5 day trip that was a great mix of down time and exploration/tour time. A day or two before our trip... read more

The weather was perfect for a City tour but got somewhat colder in Santorini!

Santorini was beautiful but one should be aware that during February most restaurants are closed and there is a lot of construction work... read more
Hi Ann!
I am truly happy that you enjoyed your time here with us even though the weather for sure wasn't on our side! During your stay "Barbara"(severe bad weather wave) was here too! (huge coincidence with the name!).
I am very happy that you enjoyed your time though and managed to see lots. 😊
I will be here and more than happy to assist you with your next trip to Greece. Maybe during May or late September when the weather is definitely better and the crowds are still low.
Until then take care and have fun!

Spain

Jan 28 - Feb 4, 2023
I was always intimidated by the concept of trip planning. But kimkim is the best tool I have found so far.
I can adjust my schedule and to-dos based on my pace. And the "self-guided tour" information on this site is very helpful on the days I don't want to book a tour, and allows me to wander around the city with some ideas in my head.
Did have some trouble adjusting the number of guests during booking cuz one of the people ended up not coming. But Yuri my appointed travel specialist in kimkim was able to change that for me very quickly.
A five-star experience!
Thank you, Joann, for your review.
It was a pleasure planning your trip.
We are constantly improving our product, so the next time you book your trip, you will have an even better experience.
See you on your next trip with kimkim.com

I think that the best review for any travel company is related to how they support travellers during unexpected disruptions. We were stuck in the Kruger area, missing a flight because roads were flooded. We still hoped to make it for a few days up to Victoria Falls.

We thank Stephen, William and Celina for organising a wonderful holiday for us in Scotland. The attention to detail was outstanding particularly given it was the winter season when many venues are closed. Nothing was too much trouble and always available and keeping in touch. We had a sensational time staying at terrific hotels often wonderfully located in the country, and made many happy memories out in the Scottish Highlands. A lovely outdoor adventure... favourite spot is Applecross!!! We could imagine the Vikings landing there from the sea.
Super thanks from Anne and Bill
Hello Anne & Bill

2 week incredible Ecuador trip
Ecuador

Jan 28 - Feb 10, 2023
We had the most amazing time in Ecuador. We spent 2 weeks there and were able to see so much more than if we had attempted to plan this ourselves. The tours, guides, hotels and transports were all perfectly coordinated and made the trip stress free for us! Linda really put the most spectacular trip together!!! 10/10 recommend for anyone!! read more
Hi Nicole,
I am so happy to hear that you've had an incredible time here in Ecuador! It was a pleasure to help you plan your trip, and I am glad that you've enjoyed each destination, activity, guide, and hotel!
Hopefully you can come back one day to explore other parts of the country such as the beautiful Andes :)
All the best & safe future travels for you and Harm!

Jan 27 - Feb 9, 2023
Chris was incredible. We wound up calling him our deus ex machina because he was always there and responsive if we had any questions or issues. This was our first time using a travel agent and we'll never do it any other way. Chris listened to what we were looking for in our trip to Greece and created a plan that we then read through and adjusted if we wanted to. We were met at each airport by a driver holding a sign with my name on it. We visited many ancient sites and he arranged private... read more

Marilu told us so much about the history of Sicily and took us on an interesting and varied walk around the old town of Palermo. And then met us again the next day to explain the incredible cathedral of Montreale. Claudio took us through the Valley of the Temples and explained each temple and the history of the Greeks and Romans in Agrigento. In Catania, Margherita was delayed due to unforeseen... read more

We used KimKim for a trip to Portugal. They were amazing!
The process for planning our was simple but comprehensive. We were able to give some guidelines re what type of trip and cities we wanted to see and Pedro at Across Portugal build an itinerary for us. We were able to change things around to end up with the perfect trip!
Pedro and his team were top shelf. They made our trip so enjoyable and personal. Pedro knows Portugal and knows the travel business. His expertise really showed in creating our vacation. I can’t say enough great things about Pedro and Across Portugal.

Kim Kim did a great job at organizing our 15 day trip to Egypt. 1st of all the people , culture, food and sights are wonderful. While I know using a travel agent usually cost a little bit more, it was well, well worth it. My husband and I usually like to go to any location for at least 2 weeks or more and try to pack in as much as possible. Kim-Kim and their Egyptian team was able to lay out a great final literary after several versions to get to what we wanted. We had a heavily pack... read more

She gave great recommendations to visit 3 places in Brazil and use our 7 days/6 nights wisely. Every detail including pick ups and drops off to airports... read more

She was super responsive to our requests for changes or alternatives and came up... read more

We had a really excellent experience! Some activities that we planned ended up being closed due to the off-season, but the rest of our itinerary was really easy to plan and then the activities were extremely enjoyable. Great recommendations on hotels. The only complaint is that some changes were tricky to process once we got there. We would recommend for others, especially on your first trip to a new city. Yuriy was excellent to work with and very knowledgeable.
Thank you, Alex, for your review.

We felt that Kimkim was well worth the amount we paid for our trip to the Lake District in Chile. Every need was anticipated, all transfers were easy. On each leg of our trip, we had contact before, during, and after each new event was scheduled. A
Almost all of our guides and excursions were excellent. (we had one guide who really was unqualified, and were very disappointed with that, as we did not get to see some of the cultural offerings we were interested in). Our outdoor guides were... read more

This was our first time using kimkim, the experience was great and we will definitely use the service again!
Kimkim worked with Serendipity Adventures to plan our trip.
Communication with Sergio, Charlotte, and Nancy from SA, while planning and during the trip, was excellent.
Sergio tweaked our plan to accommodate our travel interests and created an itinerary that matched our requests. Charlotte and Nancy were both quickly reachable while we were in Costa Rica via WhatApp, this was a... read more

As we travelled to both Chile and Argentina, we have broke our comments into two sections.
CHILE:
All told we are quite happy with our Chilean road trip, but if you are open to some points going forward,
here are my Chile notes and recommendations for future bookings.
-Santiago: quite happy with this our arrival and starting off point;
- Temuco: I would personally scratch the hotel stay here,as for the one night stay, it was constant 1 hr. traffic fight to go into the City and then... read more

We had a great couple of weeks in Costa Rica, all planned through Kimkim and their agent Yuliana with Amazilla Travel in Costa Rica. Yuliana did a great job planning the trip following our, and our friends from Canada traveling with us, input on what to see and things we were interested in doing.
We travelled from Liberia to Monteverde by private transportation and knowledgeable guide that explained points of interest during the ~ 3 hour drive.
The Zip Line organized by Yuliana was... read more
Hi Lorenzo,

Thanks for your message and for taking the time to leave us this amazing review.
I was more than glad to assist during this time, and I am so happy that you had a great time here.

Best regards from Costa Rica.

I appreciate the review, Rich! It is great to know that this Trip Plan we prepared for you and Sue was a nice experience and even better knowing you got to see a Puma up close! Not everyone is as lucky even on the same trails.

This was my fourth visit to India but the first for my daughter. It was my pleasure to re-visit sights I had seen before and to experience them with her. KimKim and our local specialist, Ravi, helped build a trip that provided opportunities to see the best of the Golden Triangle and Varanasi. Each place we visited we had an experienced local guide and in each location the guides provided us with rich experiences that made our visit memorable.
in addition to the most famous sights in... read more

Myself (Irish) and two of my friends (Canadian) spent 10 wonderful days travelling from Marrakech around the North of Morocco with lots of stops along the way. The accommodation was beautiful, the food was delicious and the route we took had such amazing scenery. Our driver Samir was brilliant, really informative at any of our stops, had some great recommendations and nothing was any trouble for him if we needed to stop for any supplies or fancied a McDonald's for breakfast one day! :) He... read more

Unforgettable Adventure of Egypt &Jordan

Jan 18 - Jan 31, 2023
The trip to Egypt and Jordan was organized for us very nicely. Mr. Ibrahim planned an itinerary based on my requests and gave me options for hotel and cruise boat options and then booked the ones as I chose. The team on the ground, tour leaders and drivers were all great and well organized. I highly recommend using them as Egypt and Jordan require guides to be explored and enjoyed. This team made it unforgettable. read more

I’m 100% thrilled with my trip. Realistic Asia was responsive, flexible, creative, and helped me see the best spots in vietnam. I was a difficult client because I needed to change plans a few times and they were gracious and proactive each time. Highlights are the halong bay cruise and hoi an.

The kimkim platform is a great tool to help match travelers directly with local specialists. We wanted to create an itinerary for Cambodia that was an authentic, personalized and responsible travel experience. Steve provided excellent service for the pre, during, and post travel journey. We were happy with nearly everything that was planned and he matched our travel intentions well with local guides and resources. For the one snag that did take place - Steve worked expediently with the... read more
Hi Suzanne & Bryce,
Many thanks for your kind words, which will be helpful for future travellers when considering Cambodia.
We love to plan bespoke travel and treat each request individually. It was great to know your interests to help match with what we could offer in Cambodia. It worked perfectly except for the beach hotel which has gone downhill in recent weeks. Thanks for all your honest comments there which have been shared and hopefully the hotel will return to the good level of... read more
