Kimkim Trip Reviews for Thailand

This marks our second booking with kimkim, and once again, it proved to be an exceptional family experience. The itinerary was tailored precisely to our requirements, and Minnah remained consistently available to facilitate adjustments; her recommendations for tour selections were highly valuable. Planning via kimkim consistently provides peace of mind, as the accommodations and logistics were arranged to a high standard. Overall, the trip was outstanding.

Jaeb Kwanchanok from kimkim organized our trip to Thailand, and it was amazing. Our itinerary was the perfect combination of luxury and adventure, allowing us to experience the beauty, culture, and excitement of Thailand. Our hotels were outstanding, the guides were knowledgeable and personable, and all of our transportation arrangements were seamless. We recommend Jaeb and kimkim to anyone looking for an unforgettable travel experience.

The Kimkim team, especially Preab, were literally along for the ride for the entirety of our trip. They were so responsive, it felt like they never left our side!

George was an attentive, thoughtful professional. He listened, researched and created the perfect mix of activities for us.

My family & I had an amazing time in Thailand and Indonesia. Our guides- Nana, Pookie, Lisa, & Mul were all great & made us feel like we were right at home. They taught us about their cultures and traditions. Although my family and I aren’t the most adventurous when it comes to trying out exotic foods, they took us to the yummiest restaurants to try out not-so-spicy Southeast Asian meals. I appreciate all of them for taking their time to show us around! We hope to be back to the Asian continent soon!

-Alejandra & Family

The trip itself was fabulous. Everything went smoothly in Cambodia. The hotel we stayed in was great. The sub-contracted tour agency in Thailand (Exotic Voyages) provided great transfers and guides. The guide in Bangkok, Ms. Kanyapat, was probably the best guide we’ve ever had. She was thoughtful, insightful, and knowledgeable. She even communicated with the Chiang Mai guide and their main office, to ensure a couple of special requests, that Kien was supposed to arrange but apparently hadn’t, were able to happen.
That’s our only complaint with this trip. Kien was great during the planning and booking process, making valuable suggestions. We exchanged emails in early December 2026 (primarily between the 6th and 9th) about my wish to visit a Red Cross office in either Bangkok or Phuket, and the need to arrange our orientation meeting the Thailand Mountain Trails (TMT) in Chiang Mai prior to our days of hiking.
Neither Ms. Kanyapat nor our guide in Chiang Mai were aware of the Red Cross request. Ms. Kanyapat arranged for us to visit the Bangkok Red Cross office. While in Bangkok, I received an email from TMT advising me that our orientation had not been scheduled. Ms, Kanyapat immediately contacted the Exotic Voyages main office and the guide in Chiang Mai. While I set the appointment, Exotic Voyages made sure we got to the TMT office.
Kien dropped the ball. I reached out to him during the trip about the TMT orientation and he didn’t get back to me until after we had met with them. His response time during the trip was not good (as compared to our Japan agent, Eleanor, who got back to me very quick.

The room was amazing, floating on the river with a porch to watch the current flow by. The room itself was great, with center bed, romantic mosquito netting, nice ensuite. The food at their restaurant was fabulous. Only drawback is that there's no on-site pool. Have to walk to the nearby sister-resort to swim - which we didn't do.

Only issues were that they don't serve any alcohol, not even at their restaurant or pool 'bar'. They do allow guest to buy alcohol and bring it in, and even said their staff would go get it for guests. Other issue is that the pool closed at 7am - kind of early. Would have been nice to take a dip after a long day of sightseeing and dinner.

An Unforgettable Trip to Thailand & Vietnam! 🇹🇭🇻🇳✈️
Destinations: Phuket & Bangkok, Thailand | Da Nang & Hoi An, Vietnam
First, we want to give a HUGE thank you to Minah and Kimkim for helping us create such an incredible vacation experience!
I am normally the person who plans all of our vacations, but this trip was different. There were so many things I wanted us to experience, multiple destinations, and several flights to coordinate. Quite frankly, I just didn't have the time to map everything out myself.
During my research, I came across Kimkim. Of course, I did my homework and dug a little deeper to make sure the company was legitimate. Even though everything checked out, I was still a little skeptical. But I decided to take a leap of faith, and I am SO glad I did!
Minah Was Absolutely Wonderful! ❤️
Now, let me tell you… I asked a MILLION questions! 😂 And because I was still a little skeptical in the beginning, those questions often led to even MORE questions.
Through it all, Minah was patient, responsive, professional, and always willing to provide answers.
I gave her our budget along with a list of experiences that were important to us. She returned with several options, thoughtful recommendations, and suggestions that made our trip even better.
One recommendation in particular really stood out. I had selected a place I wanted to visit, but Minah suggested another location that offered a similar experience in what she felt was a much better setting. Thankfully, I trusted her judgment because the original location I selected actually closed before our trip! And let me tell you, the place she recommended was absolutely GORGEOUS!
She also suggested additional experiences that weren't originally on our list, including a fishing village excursion in Vietnam.
OH MY GOODNESS! That experience was AMAZING! 😍
From the cultural experience to the incredible food, it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. And I'm going to say something that might surprise a few people…
The food we enjoyed during that excursion was even better than some of the Michelin-starred restaurants we visited! 🤯🍽️
And trust me, those Michelin-starred restaurants were TOP TIER! That should tell you just how incredible the food was!
Our Tour Guides & Transportation 🌏
Throughout our trip, we experienced a combination of private tours and small-group excursions.
Our private guides and drivers were consistently punctual, friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. The transportation was beautiful, comfortable, and well maintained, which made traveling between destinations even more enjoyable.
We also want to recognize our wonderful tour guides:
🇹🇭 Phuket, Thailand: Pupae
🇹🇭 Bangkok, Thailand: Gifty
🇻🇳 Da Nang, Vietnam: Nu
Each of them helped make our experiences memorable, and we truly appreciated their hospitality and knowledge.
Another thing I loved was knowing that help was always available. If I had questions or needed assistance during our travels, I could reach out to Minah or the local contacts provided, and someone would respond quickly.
That level of communication and support gave us peace of mind while traveling internationally.
A Few Things Worth Mentioning for Future Travelers
Although we had an AMAZING experience overall, I do want to share a few things that could have been handled differently. My intention isn't to take away from how wonderful our trip was, but rather to provide constructive feedback that may help improve the experience for future travelers.
1. Phi Phi Islands Small-Group Excursion
We booked what was described as a small-group excursion to the Phi Phi Islands. However, when we arrived, there appeared to be approximately 40–50 people on the catamaran.
Personally, I would not consider that a small group.
When I reached out afterward, I believe I was told the group should have been closer to 30–35 people. Even that number seems fairly large for something advertised as a small-group experience.
It honestly felt as though the excursion provider was trying to fit as many people as possible onto the catamaran.
That said, we still had a GREAT time! The experience itself was wonderful. I would simply recommend that travelers clarify the maximum group size beforehand so expectations are aligned.
2. Vietnam eVisa Issues — An Expensive Lesson Learned
This was probably our biggest hiccup during the entire trip.
When we arrived at the airport in Bangkok to catch our flight to Vietnam, we were informed that there were errors on our eVisas and that we would not be allowed to board our flight.
Imagine being at the airport, ready for the next leg of your vacation, only to be told you can't go! 😩
We immediately reached out to Minah, who connected us with David. He was able to arrange emergency visas for us at a cost of $150 per person, allowing us to fly to Vietnam the following morning.

Thankfully, because our scheduled excursion was a private tour, they were able to adjust the timing to accommodate our delayed arrival. However, we still lost valuable time that we could have spent enjoying Vietnam.
We also had additional unexpected expenses, including another night at a hotel and transportation back to the airport the following morning.

Here is why I'm sharing this particular experience.
While we were at the airport, we were asked whether our travel agency had completed our eVisa applications for us. When we explained that we had completed them ourselves, we were told that travel agencies often assist with this process to help prevent errors.
We were never informed that this might be an option.

Now, I fully understand that we completed the applications ourselves, and I take responsibility for that. However, had we known assistance might be available, we certainly would have asked about it.

My recommendation to future travelers: If your trip requires a visa, ask your travel planner whether they can assist with the application or review it before submission. It could potentially save you time, money, and unnecessary stress.
I also believe this is an area where Kimkim could improve its process by proactively offering guidance or assistance with visa requirements.

3. Our Café Excursion
One of our scheduled excursions was a café day, where we planned to visit multiple beautiful locations.
Unfortunately, when the day arrived, we discovered that one of the cafés on our itinerary was closed on Mondays.

This is something that should have been verified during the planning process, especially since the excursion was scheduled in advance.
Now, here's the funny part…
The second location was SO BEAUTIFUL that we were actually happy to spend more time there! 😂❤️

We ended up not regretting missing the first café at all.
However, I do recognize that another traveler might have been extremely disappointed, especially if that particular location was something they had their heart set on visiting.
It's simply a reminder of how important it is to verify operating days and hours when building an itinerary.

I almost forgot to mention the hotel accommodations! 🏨
Since I had plenty of hotel points to use, I booked our accommodations in Bangkok myself. However, for Phuket and Vietnam, I wanted to experience local hotels, and Minah helped arrange those stays.
🌴 Phuket, Thailand – Orchidacea Resort
Beautiful, clean accommodations with friendly, helpful staff and a decent breakfast! Now, let me warn you about one thing… THE STAIRS! 😂 Be prepared to get your steps in! After the first day, we quickly learned that we could have the staff drive us up to our room, and that's exactly what we did! We still chose to walk down using the road instead of the stairs. But hey, if you love climbing stairs and getting in a good workout, this resort has you covered! 🤣 Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.
🇻🇳 Hoi An, Vietnam – Hoi An Rose Garden
We absolutely loved the location of this hotel! The staff was friendly and helpful, the breakfast was surprisingly good, and the massages were wonderful! The hotel appeared to be a bit older, and while the rooms were fairly basic, everything was clean and well-maintained.
The beds weren't quite as comfortable as we would have liked, but honestly, after our long days of exploring, we were so exhausted that it didn't affect our sleep one bit! 😂
Both hotels gave us the local experience we were hoping for, and we appreciated having accommodations that fit our preferences and travel plans.

Would We Book with Kimkim Again? ABSOLUTELY! ❤️✈️

Even with those few hiccups, we had an absolutely WONDERFUL vacation!

Traveling internationally, especially across multiple countries, comes with the possibility of unexpected challenges. What matters is how those challenges are handled and whether the overall experience delivers what you hoped for.
For us, it absolutely did!

Minah listened to what we wanted, respected our budget, offered recommendations that enhanced our experience, and remained accessible when we needed assistance.
Because of her planning and attention to detail, we were able to enjoy experiences we might not have discovered on our own.

And remember how skeptical I was in the beginning? 😂 Well, I can confidently say that I would absolutely use Kimkim again, and I would specifically request Minah!

Now that I've experienced the process firsthand, I feel much more comfortable trusting them with future travel plans.

To Minah, our amazing tour guides, drivers, and everyone who helped make this journey possible — THANK YOU! ❤️

You helped us create memories that we will cherish for years to come.

Thailand and Vietnam were everything we hoped for and so much more!

Would we do it all over again? In a heartbeat! 🇹🇭🇻🇳❤️

Thank you, Minah and Kimkim, for an unforgettable adventure!

Phuket Elephant Sanctuary

We visited an elephant sanctuary, and what an incredible experience! You could really see the pride they take in caring for these beautiful animals and focusing on their health and healing. We started with a little education about how the elephants came to the sanctuary, their backgrounds, and how they're cared for. Then it was time to get involved in their daily routines! Each elephant has its own handler, and the bond between them is something special. Since they're together pretty much all day, every day, the elephants recognize, trust, and respond to their handlers. ❤️ Now, what did WE get to do? 🐘 Fed them watermelon, sugar cane, and a special elephant food mixture (don't ask me what it's called because I have NO idea! 😂). 🐘 Gave them a MUD BATH! Yes, we got down and dirty! 🤣 🐘 Finished things off by washing them up! Being up close and personal with these gentle giants was definitely an experience to remember! ❤️ Next up… COOKING CLASS! 👩🏽‍🍳🍜 After getting cleaned up, it was time to put our cooking skills to the test! We learned how to make our own Pad Thai! Now, let me just say… I'm glad they ALSO provided a delicious lunch with Pad Thai and plenty of other amazing dishes because MY Pad Thai didn't quite turn out the way it was supposed to! 🤣🤣 Hey, you win some, you lose some!

Bangkok Floating Market and Temple Tour

Bangkok

Great experience. It was interesting to see how many vendors have stores at the floating market. Although I gave it a 5 my only concern was when we said we didn't want anything from a particular vendor our boat driver would sometimes still stop, not at our request, so they could try and talk us into buying. We did buy a few things but not from those where they purposely stopped. One vendor said she was the sister of they guy driving our boat. Now, if he told us ahead of time his sister was a vendor we probably would have waited and bought some things from her, why not support his family. However we already bought some items and were done by the time we reached her area. The Train Market and temple tour were also great. We visited during a festival and was able to experience the food vendors and dancing. The restaurant was a great choice. We would go back and eat there again.

He picked great accommodations for me both on Phi Phi and Chiang Mai. He was able to score a great elephant sanctuary experience for us. He also was extremely responsive when I requested assistance during our trip. I highly recommend Benjamin and the entire KimKim team.

We had an amazing time in Thailand thanks to Lilian and Nana!
From the planning to the execution, all parts of this trip were fabulous. We wanted to travel once in our lives where we just showed up to the airport and someone had a sign with our names on it and just whisked us away and did all of the work for us. This was it! And... I'm never going back to organizing and planning trips myself. Planning a trip for a family of 4 with young adults/older teenagers can be tough. But, all I had to do was communicate our likes and pacing style and Lilian planned it all! It was the perfect amount of sight seeing, adventure, and relaxation. Her hotel picks were fabulous were perfectly located central to the hustle and bustle with easy access by foot or train to anything we would want to see. I especially enjoyed Buri Rasa Village in Koh Samui. It’s a perfect size with not too many guests and just the right amount of gorgeous nature. If I ever come back to Koh Samui I would love to stay here again. And the NYSA hotel in Bangkok was awesome too. Their breakfast buffet was fantastic and had so many food options. I’m also very glad that I upgraded to the two bedroom suite because it was a splurge my family had never done before and that extra space and second bathroom provided such a luxurious feel that it was worth the extra money just for the memories of such an extravagant space. I highly recommend that room type for families of 4 with older children/teenagers.
Upon arrival in Bangkok our guide Nana and her driver took amazing care of us. Nana is very upbeat, high energy, and full of knowledge. We enjoyed her narrations along the drive to each activity as well as her excellent advice on things we could do and places we could eat after our day with her ended. She was able to effectively rearrange our scheduled itinerary due to some closures because of the King's birthday and we truly appreciated that flexibility. She really seemed in tune with what our likes were and adapted to our quite subdued nature with just the right amount of push to get us out of our comfort zone. We especially enjoyed her advice for the markets and suggestions for foods to try.
Thank you for making this the most amazing and easy vacation we have ever had. I truly enjoyed just waking up and having the day planned out and all of the transportation arranged.
Now that I have seen how the other half lives, I think all of our future vacations will need to be splurges like this! It’s an awesome way to travel.

I wasn't sure about this part of our itinerary, but I am really glad that Lilian suggested it. We had a great time seeing this part of the city and really enjoyed the sites and walking around neighborhoods.

Nana really knows her way around and was able to show us some really interesting sites. Her lunch restaurant choice was phenomenal.

The driver was always there to pick us up and drop us off right on time.

Railway Market & Floating Market

Bangkok

This is an absolute MUST DO activity. The drive there allowed us to see more of Thailand than just Bangkok and Nana's commentary along the way filled the drive with so much knowledge and information about Thai history and culture. The railway market is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and the canals take you through so many different styles of homes and shops along the water. We could have spent all day wandering through the markets... and I don't even like to shop or bargain! It is that great.

Samui Elephant Sanctuary (Joining morning visit)

Ko Samui

This is a lovely elephant sanctuary where you mostly keep your distance and just observe. You are able to prepare food for the elephants, feed them and pet their trunk, but you mostly get to watch them in their natural state. There is no prodding or coaching of the elephants, and you do not bathe them or get in their way.

Hoa was an amazing travel specialist. I had to particularly rely upon her expertise for this trip, because it was my first-ever visit to Southeast Asia. I was definitely out of my element.

The trip required extensive planning due to the number of cities and countries involved. Logistics were formidable.

Nonetheless, Hoa seamlessly brought it all together with professionalism, positivity and patience. I LOVED the itinerary she created for me - the specific locales, the accommodations, the activities. I can’t thank her enough. I would have her plan all my trips if possible.

My wife and I had an incredible honeymoon through Thailand and Vietnam, making stops across Phuket, Bangkok, and Nha Trang. We owe a huge part of that experience to our specialist Bella. From the very beginning, Bella was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely invested in helping us create a special & personalized trip.

Bella did an amazing job putting together an itinerary that balanced adventure, cultural exploration, and relaxation across many food tours, wildlife and oceanic exploration, even a ring-side Muay Thai experience at Bangkok's famous Rajadamnern stadium.

One of Bella’s biggest strengths was her communication. She was consistently prompt, responsive, and incredibly helpful whenever we had a question or wanted to make an adjustment. Even with a trip spanning two countries and multiple destinations, we always felt like we had someone in our corner who could help us navigate anything that came up. My wife also has a severe nut allergy which Bella made sure all of our guides, vendors, and experiences, were more than prepared for. That peace of mind was invaluable, especially for such an important trip.

We also want to give a huge shoutout to the local guides and drivers who helped make the experience so memorable! In Phuket, Nui took us through a great food tour, Mr. Uncle and his team showed us an incredible time through James Bond Island, Mr. Man was an excellent driver, and the team at the Elephant Sanctuary were incredibly sweet! In Bangkok, Chaloo gave us an incredible tour of many beautiful temples, Chef Nam was an incredibly teacher during our cooking class, and Amp was a fantastic TukTuk Food Tour guide! Mr. Chin was also a great driver, being communicative and prompt each and everyday. In Nha Trang, Van was the perfect host, even stepping in when his driver got sick! He and his partner Mr. Tony added to our itinerary by showing us spa and food spots loved by the locals to make sure we had an authentic experience. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and welcoming. Our guides did a fantastic job bringing the history and culture of Thailand and Vietnam to life, while our drivers made getting around each destination feel easy and stress-free. Their warmth and hospitality really added to the experience.

We couldn't recommend Bella and the KimKim team more highly. If you're considering using KimKim for a trip to Thailand, Vietnam, or anywhere else in Southeast Asia, we would absolutely recommend working with Bella. She is an exceptional travel specialist, and we are so grateful that she helped make our honeymoon everything we hoped it would be — and more!

We stayed at the Alma Resort Cam Ranh in Vietnam, which I would recommend especially for families. It felt like a family resort with lots of activities and many kids around. While it was great, if we were to visit again, we might choose a more adult-only place with fewer children. Overall, it was a good experience but more suited for families with younger kids.

Hotel will be booked by the clients

In Thailand, we stayed at the Anantara Mai Khao Villas, and it was absolutely incredible. We had a private pool villa, which I would highly recommend for couples. The experience was amazing, and I couldn't recommend it enough.

Hotel will be booked by the clients direct

We stayed at the Kimpton Maa-Lai in Bangkok, which was a very nice hotel. I booked it through the Chase travel portal and got great benefits like breakfast and a $100 property credit, which made the stay even better. I would recommend this hotel, especially for those with a Chase Sapphire Reserve card.

An Amazing Thailand Family Trip

Thank you, Minah, for organizing such an amazing family trip to Thailand! We truly had a wonderful time and created so many unforgettable memories.

Everyone we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and incredibly hospitable. From the airport pickups and hotel arrangements to all the transfers between destinations, everything went smoothly and was very well organized.

Our Bangkok tour guide, Gifty, and our driver, Sunshine, were both knowledgeable and wonderful. We learned so much about Thailand’s history and culture from them. One thing we especially appreciated was their punctuality—they always showed up on time for our excursions.

Our Chiang Mai tour guide, Joe, was fantastic! He was funny, personable, and shared even more fascinating history and culture with us. His food recommendations were phenomenal and definitely added to our experience.

Our Phuket excursions were wonderful, relaxing, and enjoyable. The only excursion that felt a little overwhelming was our Phi Phi Island trip. The itinerary described it as a “small group,” but there were approximately 80 passengers on one speed catamaran. It felt very crowded, and at times we felt rushed compared with what was outlined in the program. If we were to do it again, we would definitely choose a smaller group or a private tour for a more relaxed experience.

As for the hotels, the only disappointment was our final accommodation at Thavorn Resort and Spa. We had discussed and confirmed two beachfront cottages next to each other, but unfortunately, that arrangement did not happen. Instead, our cottage was one cottage away from the rest of our family.

Overall, our experience with Kim Kim and with you, Minah, as our travel agent, was great. You did an excellent job organizing and coordinating our family vacation.

As they say, there is always room for improvement, but these few concerns did not take away from the wonderful memories we made.

Thank you again for organizing such a memorable family trip to Thailand. It was definitely one for the books! 🇹🇭❤️

We truly appreciate all your hard work and look forward to traveling with you again in the future!

Phuong, KimKim Specialist
An absolute pleasure to work with. Ty Ty!
Three comments though on the process:
1. Estimated travel time to and from events should be included in the itinerary. Too many events were so far to and from our location that we would have made different decisions had we known that ahead of time.
2. Itinerary items should include cost during planning phase. There were some events that I imagine I definitely would have skipped or altered had I known the cost.
3. Sometimes the guides were too much. It felt like having a babysitter. I imagine this approach is necessary for large group tours, but for just two of us on our honeymoon, it felt a little oppressive sometimes. We would have preferred a "let's meet back here at xx time" approach.

Poukie was an absolute delight. Fantastic guide.

Our trip to Thailand was very well organized by Bella. When guides were expected to meet us at 10AM, they showed up by 10AM, same with taxis, etc. Traveling was made simple and enjoyable. I had never used a service before, but took all the anxiety away. Should I travel to Asia again, I will definitely use KimKim.

We had an incredible family trip to Thailand with a group of nine ! Planning travel for a large group can be challenging, but KimKim and our local specialist, Bella, made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

Bella put together a fantastic itinerary that catered perfectly to everyone in our group. Throughout the trip, our local guides were wonderfully informative, friendly, and exceptionally accommodating to all our needs.

One of the biggest highlights was visiting the elephant sanctuary—it was truly an amazing, ethical, and unforgettable experience for all of us. We also spent time on the wonderful island of Koh Samui, which was absolutely beautiful and relaxing.

Beyond the sights, we were blown away by the genuine warmth and friendliness of the Thai people everywhere we went—and, of course, taking advantage of the wonderful and very affordable Thai massages!

Thank you, Bella and the Kimkim team, for creating a seamless and unforgettable family vacation. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Thailand!
