We enjoyed another great travel experience from KimKim. The hotels were great. The Jardim da Batalha breakfast buffet was exceptional. I think my favorite event was the hands on cooking class. It was so fun learning about and preparing a Portuguese meal. Being able to work alongside Rebekah was special.

The tours of the Enchanting Palaces did not go as smoothly as expected. The trip details show an 8:15 pickup. Our guide said we should have been downstairs at 8. We were then late to our ticketed arrival time at Pena palace. Fortunately we were still able to join our small group. We were very surprised at the number of people, especially in off season. I was also surprised with the amount of uphill walking. Had I understood, I could have requested an earlier pickup time to accommodate my slower pace.

Pena palace and Quinta da Regaleira were amazing. Unfortunately, we were unable to see Monserrate Palace. Crowd sizes and slow lunch service did not help.

We had a wonderful time. The planned activities were just what we requested. Both off us agreed we would gladly go back to Portugal.

Julia and the team at Kimkim made travel planning so delightful! They were quick to respond to any questions, concerns, or needs. Having team members located in Europe made support readily available while traveling through different time zones.
Kimkim was easy to work with while in the planning stages of our trip. They gave us several options, were flexible when we chose to do our own thing, and were extremely helpful in organizing it all in the end. Making it seamless and easy for us to enjoy the journey while they planned and organized all the details of our day to day. They focused on supporting the Portuguese culture and used locals employed in local tourism, which I appreciated.
Our itinerary included travel both by train and private drivers, which often were also our guide for the day. I loved using the Kimkim app. where our schedule was simple to follow and easy to use while boarding the train or confirming a guided excursion. I never had to wonder where a ticket or confirmation number was, nor worry if I had misplaced it!
Each guide was excellent. They were knowledgeable, personable and timely, often giving additional suggestions as they got to know us. I always felt safe and respected.
Our hotels were always located in “the perfect spot”. Loving to walk, we were easily able to get to many sites and used Ubers when necessary, making it a quick and easy return.
Some of our hotel rooms were very tight for space. (Jardim da Batalha Boutique Hotel in Porto: very quaint w excellent breakfast!!) and (Hotel Oslo in Coimbra)
Not spending much time in the room made it tolerable, but a bit more space would’ve been a nice comfort.
I especially enjoyed our hotel in Evora; Hotel Albergaria do Calvario. It was an old convent that used to make olive oil. The charm, comfort and excellent breakfast it provided won’t be forgotten. The rooms were large and very comfortable!
Residence Inn in Lagos was in an excellent location, but could’ve used some updating.
All staff throughout our journey were helpful and knowledgeable!
Our last night in Lisbon we stayed at Melia Aeroporto: very conveniently located by the airport, even when schulpping luggage!

Tuk-tuk in Lisbon was a great way to see highlights, avoid crazy traffic and pedestrians, and learn about the city. We had an exceptional guide, Antonio, who went out of his way to pick us up and then drop us off where we were planning to have dinner. Highly recommend!!

Would highly recommend a day trip to the Schist Villages(not supported by kimkim yet) but easy to set up. Our guide Miguel was wonderful to spend the day with.
The coast is beautiful and a must to see. I prefer the less traveled areas myself. We went to Sintra, Peña Palace, (which was impressive) and were to follow that w Quinta da Regaleria, but our guide Louis(highly recommend!!) thought it would way too much to fit in one day, so he suggested an alternative plan which included time along the coast, which was lovely!
Lots of great memories and will highly recommend Kimkim to others!

My wife and I have just completed an amazing trip to Portugal, using KimKim to help plan our 21 days there. Before I go any further, I want to say how invaluable the KimKim app was during the trip. Everyday’s itinerary was easily accessible, with the names of hotels, guides, drivers and their contact numbers.

We had many excellent guides and a few really stood out. Our Lisbon’s walking tour guide, Pedro A. impressed us with his historical and cultural knowledge of the city, plus it was exciting to have a shot of Ginjinha at 11 in the morning. In Porto, Carlotta guided us about and showed us the most important site in the city, the hospital she was born at. Carlotta also does food tours and directed us to a delicious dinner and a great evening of conversation with the owner. Our tour of the Douro Valley with Pedro was exceptional, with wine, port and olive oil tasting. Our tour guide to Peneda-Gerês National Park was a spunky woman named Inês. She joyfully led us on trails ending with beautiful waterfalls and a small village with a traditional lunch. On Madeira our rental car was waiting for us to explore the tropical island on our own. We hiked with Margarita through lush forests to beautiful waterfalls. Paulo, a professor of biology and geology, educated us about the world of cork production.
Hector and Espiritu Travel exceeded our expectations with the itinerary he designed from our initial thoughts for Portugal.
KimKim will be at the top of our list when planning our next trip

The first travel agent group we reached out to tried to inform us we had planned to do too much and should focus on only one location which was a bit disheartening. They would not even entertain an itinerary for us. When we reached out to Julia, explained we were young, loved adventure, were okay with living out of a suitcase, willing to drive a rental car, and wanting to see as much as possible she was so encouraging! She gave great recommendations on where to spend our time in terms of what to see at each location and took care of booking our flights and rental cars. Summer the operations specialist was also great! Both Julia and Summer were quick to respond to any questions we had through the Kim Kim app, we felt very well taken care of through the planning process and during the trip as well. We also used KimKim for a previous trip to Iceland which went great. We plan to do more traveling over the next few years and will definitely be looking at using KimKim again in the future!

The trip to Portugal was developed brilliantly after I was able to work with Janelle to customize our itinerary. I could include time on our own to explore while she included other days with a guide. She also included areas of interest to my travel partner and I.
While in areas of Portugal that needed transport, we had very interesting local people who were extremely knowledgable and at the end of our time together, we considered them friends.

This trip was Amazing! Diana Mota is a superb travel expert for her country of Portugal. From our first contact, I knew Diana would be a great person to work with. As a travel agent myself and having never traveled to Portugal, I relied on her expertise throughout the process. She carefully listened to our desires, likes and dislikes, to create a tailor-made vacation for us. This was my first time using kimkim and I will definitely utilize their services for other clients. The timings of all activities from the drivers to adventures were all on time and well described. Diana's travel agenda was well planned and well timed for all that we wanted to see and do.

The drivers from Carlos whom first picked us up from Lisbon to Porto, Ivo for a beautiful experience in the Douro Valley, Riccardo on our journey from Porto through Coimbra and Tomar back to Lisbon, and the two drivers in the Algarve to/from the Albufeira station to Lagos were all professional, courteous, on-time, and so knowledgable. Many thanks to them. Our guides were also outstanding, Sara in Porto, Margredia in Lisbon, and Fia on our Ponta da Piedade boat trip
were all so pleasant and extremely knowledgable. We greatly enjoyed all the time they spent with us to make our trip even more enjoyable. We left Portugal with a much better understanding of the people, places, culture and food. A truly outstanding trip. Thank you Diana and all for the constant communication and updates.

We were only there for about 12 hours as our train was late coming in and we needed to be at the airport in the early AM so it is hard to give a full rating. The room was nice, small, but very clean. The overhead shower did not work as the knob controlling it came out. Not a big problem as there was still a hand held shower head. I mentioned it on check-out and they would get it fixed.

Wonderful place to visit, quite crowded, but not as bad as during the summer. Once you got through part of the castle, it thinned out and you were able to wonder around easier. Beautiful and amazing place. We felt it was less over-the-top than a place like Schoennbrun outside Vienna. Felt very nice.

Ivo, our driver, gave us a wonderful experience on a day trip to the Douro valley. He asked us exactly what we would like to see and do. Our focus was to see the area, take the 1 hour boat trip, and get and overall perspective of what happens in the valley. We did not visit any wineries as that was not our focus. I am sure the Quintas would be lovely to visit but that was not our goal. He took us to some quaint areas, gorgeouse views of the valley area, and even stopped at one of the 5 locks so we could see how that functioned. A great day out of the city. The restaurant in Pinhao he recommended, the Veladouro, was great.

We spent a truly memorable week recently in Portugal. Portugal is a country that we have wanted to visit for quite some time ever since we were unable to do so on a trip we made to Spain approximately 10 years ago. The 10 year wait was rewarded because Portugal is a beautiful country with amazing scenery and very friendly people. Perhaps the highlight of our trip which involved stops in Porto, Lisbon and the Douro Valley was the time we spent at the port winery and surrounding area in the Douro Valley. This part of Portugal reminded me of Tuscany in Italy with its beautifully landscape and terraced vineyards in a micro climate that is truly unique on the Earth. Our trip organizer João was amazing in his desire and ability to craft many activities and tours that we enjoyed immensely. Our driver Eduardo was full of good and useful information about his beloved country and made our time traveling around Portugal, enjoyable and informative. The lunch that we had at the Quinta de Pacheca winery was truly a highlight, and the 20 year old Port wine that we were served was exceptional. All in all, this was a trip that we thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the efforts that Joao and KimKim went to make it the success that it was.

The local tour guides were also very knowledgeable and gave us an in-depth history of each town we explored.
We loved our cooking class (Pastel de Nata), our gastronomic tour and the art of tile making workshop.
Although it's hard to pinpoint what our favorite experience was...the Douro Valley for us was a highlight for sure! The vineyards throughout the valley were outstanding and the lunch at the vineyard was very delicious!

Kudos to Pedro and his team for providing a very memorable trip for us! We will definitely be recommending KimKim to friends/family!
