We made our way down through Zadar and the Plitvice National Park. We had the freedom to stop at little towns like Rastoke, Sibenik, and Trogir. Nikola even helped coordinate with the rental car company to get it picked up in Split. We then stayed in Split and ferried over to Havar and then Korcula and ended in Dubrovnik. We had city tours in each city and an amazing boat excursion in Dubrovnik. Our guides were wonderful. We also had plenty of leisure time to do our own things. The biggest luxury this trip provided was every place had "luggage assistance" or someone there to greet us and help get us to the next lodging location or excusion. My Mother-in-law said she felt like royalty. We booked this trip with the help of KimKim because my in laws are in the late 70s and I needed to know they could physically do this trip. Navigating transportation and luggage with them has started to become a challenge. With this trip, they were taken care of all along the way. Every evening we received a text from Nikola letting us know the exact schedule the next day. Nikola was always available and responded immediately when we messaged him on the trip with any questions or needs we had. The accommodations were wonderful and the app was extremely user friendly and easy to get the documents/tickets we needed. This was a trip of a lifetime and I would recommend and use KimKim again in the future.

When we arrived at the hotel, we were trying to navigate working with our travel agent, the car rental company, and the hotel regarding out rental car pick up. We were told by our agent to park the car and let the hotel know where it is at and the rental car company will come and get it. When we arrived, the hotel check in women was not happy that we parked the car (since its paid parking) and wish we would have called the hotel first and not parked. The hotel has a couple of spots reserved we could have used. We understand why she was frustrated but several times she criticized our travel agent for not giving us the hotel number and telling us to call before parking. I understand there was a miscommunication and it meant she needed to coordinate with the rental car company and figure out where we parked the car but she was very unprofessional to criticize our travel agent for this miscommunication. Our agent was wonderful our entire trip and did not need to be criticized because of this. She could have handled it all very differently. She could have had us move the car to the new spot, like we offered, or be annoyed without making that very clear to us. This was just a very negative beginning to our stay all for us to have the luxury of getting our rental car picked up for us. We were thrilled that it was getting picked up and we did not need to return it ourselves.

Kimkim worked with Royal Croatia Tours to organize an efficient trip over one week. We stayed in Dubrovnik, Hvar, Split and Zadar along the Adriatic Shore, with day visits to Cavtat and Sibenek. We traveled by ferry and private car. There's no train service. This region's history is fascinating, from pre-Common Era to date. Dubrovnik's Old City and Split's Roman Palace were most engrossing. The hotels were all excellent, comfortable and located close to walkable destinations. All our drivers spoke excellent English, and were personable and well informed. We had good support from Ivan and Sarah, with Royal Croatia Tours. For instance, we had a boat trip cancel due to weather. They immediately refunded that cost. Cafes and gelato shops are plentiful and Croatian wine is very good. Croatia is working hard to build up its international reputation as a visitor destination, and the hospitality of its people is obvious. If you enjoy beaches, water sports, and historic sites, Croatia is a treasure.

Our driver and guide, Doris, was a pleasure. While she was a consummate professional, she was also personable and entertaining. She accompanied us to the little beach town of Cavtat and lunch at a family farm. It was a customized visit and we enjoyed the food, tastings and venue very much.

Our guide met us promptly and provided an informative tour of the historic parts of town and the Roman Palace. We stopped at four or five cafes to sample the good croatian wine, small bites, entree and pasta courses. Croatian meals are similar to other Mediterranean countries. In addition to the food part of the tour, we learned a great deal about the construction of the huge Roman Palace, and what many subsequent regimes have done in the area.

Our recent trip to Croatia, arranged by Robi , was amazing! We had a perfect balance of activity with cycling, hiking and walking and kayaking with Tours of the city, which were fun and interesting. We had asked for some off days to relax and he gave us tips and recommendations on those as well, which were optional. Robi was very attentive, and I spoke with him daily about the plans and modified some that I thought would work better with our schedule. Our guides were great from Zagreb with Andrey and Stephen to Sofia and Zadar and Perro in split. They were all engaging and informative. We spent three days with Goran and he took us cycling, wine tasting, and island hopping on a speedboat and we had a blast. He has a great sense of humor and my husband really bonded with him over cycling and music and those few days were super special. I don’t have one criticism about the trip as it was executed perfectly. All of the guides and Transportation people were on time and friendly. We rented a car and that was seamless. So if you’re going to Croatia, which I highly recommend, use Robi at kimkim and you will not be disappointed. We travel a lot, and I feel confident to say this was our best trip ever!

All of our pick ups and transfers were set up perfectly without waiting. From the airport shuttles to the drives to the excursions. The driver was always there promptly.
In split, we had a wonderful walking tour with, Jenna? We then took a fantastic boat tour that lasted all day with. Scopa. The boat was adequate size, well shaded from the sun, and we were taken around Brac and Milne, and ending up with a very great munch spot in Hvar.
The hotels in split and Hvar were top-notch. We did a really nice bike tour and finished up with a local wine tasting.
In Korchula, we did a wonderful kayaking, excursion with Boris and (forgot our great guides name) our guide was very knowledgeable. What I liked about the kayaking excursion was that the winds picked up and the two of them were able to pivot and allow us to finish our kayak excursion with the wind at our back.
In Dubrovnik, we had a very well-informed guide by the name of Anna who took us through the city. Also, we had a spectacular bike tour with Adrienne. What was special about that tour is that Adrienne took us into his house? Let us try some of the fruit that was growing in his backyard, including his grapes and then gave us a couple of bottles of his home made wine.
Well, all, it was a well planned vacation, seamless pick ups, very personalized excursions. Ivan and Sarah did a wonderful job and planning this adventure. We would definitely use kimkim again for our next vacation.
