Odynovo Opiniões 1206

We had an excellent experience with Odynovo Tours. From start to finish, everything was thoughtfully planned and the level of service made us feel like VIPs.

Each city had a different tour guide, and every one of them was knowledgeable, engaging, and attentive. They shared meaningful historical context that made each destination more interesting and memorable. They also gave great shopping recommendations and arranged wonderful lunches that fit our preferences perfectly.

A special thank you to Avril in Shanghai and Holly in Wuhan. Avril was incredibly informative and a pleasure to spend time with, and Holly made our train arrival in Wuhan smooth and stress free.

We also truly appreciated the train arrangements. We requested business class tickets, and Odynovo went above and beyond by securing a private train car for our family, which was a highlight of the trip.

Overall, Odynovo exceeded our expectations in every way. We would absolutely travel with them again.

We recently completed a 14-day trip to China with Odynovo, and it exceeded our expectations. As first-time visitors, we had many questions, and our main travel consultant, Cathy, was incredibly patient, structured, and trustworthy throughout the entire planning process.
Our journey took us through Shanghai, Guilin (which we explored on our own), Chengdu, Xi’an, and Beijing. In every city, the local guides were prompt, knowledgeable, and approachable, making each stop seamless and enriching.
Overall, it was a well-organized and memorable experience. We’d definitely recommend Odynovo to anyone planning their first trip to China.

Kim met us at the Ho Che Min airport, with the biggest smile & friendly personality which was such a welcome & great start to our tour. Her advice, help in all area’s of where to shop, where to eat, sharing knowledge of all area’s we visited, was impeccable. Her knowledge of Vietnam was great, any questions were answered immediately & if not she found out for us.
A wonderful tour guide & a very very special person From the Howie’s/ Hughes Travelling Aussie’s

Would thoroughly recommend Odynovo. From booking through to actually being on the trip the service has been amazing. Cathy was super helpful with customising the itinerary and her infinite patience with our many tweaks. There were many thoughtful additions and some lovely surprises while we were away. The guides were all amazing and great accommodation in good locations. There was a flight change and this was all sorted to ensure we had the best possible experience. Overall I would have no hesitation in recommending Odynovo and Cathy to organise a great trip.

We just got home from a South China tour arranged by Allison Chiang and Odynovo. Allison had planned a great Vietnam trip for my wife and I and friends a few years ago and she came through again. She customized the trip for the two of us and gave what turned out to be really useful advice. The guides were all great--knowledgeable and personable. We especially liked Linda Da in Guangzhou, Lu in Guilin and Mei Mei Yang in Zhangjiajie. Lu and Mei, who were with us the longest, made us feel like family. The whole experience in China was so smooth and so much fun.

Thank you so much to Odynovo and our incredible travel agent, Christal, for making our trip to Morocco truly unforgettable.
From the very beginning, Christal was attentive, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and created an itinerary that perfectly balanced culture, adventure, and relaxation. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, from the beautiful riads to the seamless transportation and the amazing local guides who brought Morocco to life.
What stood out the most was how smooth and stress-free everything felt. Traveling in a new country can be overwhelming, but thanks to Odynovo and Christal, we never had to worry about anything. Whenever we had questions or needed small adjustments, Christal was always quick to respond and ensure everything was taken care of.
Morocco itself was breathtaking—the vibrant souks, the stunning Sahara Desert, and the rich history, but having such a well-organized and personalized trip made the experience even more special.
We are so grateful for this once-in-a-lifetime experience and would highly recommend Odynovo and Christal to anyone planning a trip. Thank you again for making everything so easy and enjoyable!

We just returned from an incredible trip to Morocco, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the moment we landed, everything was seamless—airport pickup, attentive service, and thoughtful coordination throughout. Our driver truly elevated the trip, always ensuring we were comfortable, helping us in and out of each stop, and getting us everywhere safely and efficiently.

In each city, we were paired with exceptional local guides who brought so much depth and context to our experience. Thanks to them, we didn’t just visit places—we really got to know and appreciate each destination, from Casablanca and Rabat to Marrakesh and Fes.

I worked with Tom to plan the trip, and he was fantastic—responsive, flexible, and incredibly accommodating, even with last-minute questions and itinerary changes.

I can’t recommend Odynovo enough for anyone considering a trip to Morocco. It was a truly memorable and beautifully executed experience.

I just returned home from a fabulous tour of China with my 10-year -old grandson, all organized by Odynovo. Eric Kong, my specialist, was fantastic customizing our trip, adding all the activities we wanted to the tour and making sure it would be a good fit for a young boy who loves history. Eric was always responsive and kept tweaking the trip to make it perfect for us. 5 star treatment all the way!

Once we arrived in China, our expectations were exceeded at every turn, from the welcome and VIP pass through customs, to the guides and drivers for each city to the 5 star hotels. Traveling with a wonderful guide and personal driver has me spoiled and now I don’t want to travel any other way.

We just returned from our fifth trip with Odynovo, this time to Bhutan and Nepal, and once again the experience was flawless. Our guides and drivers in both countries were professional, knowledgeable, and consistently attentive — exactly what we’ve come to expect from Odynovo over the past decade.

We’ve worked with our trusted travel advisor, John Hu, for 10 years, and he continues to deliver exceptional service every single time. His planning, communication, and attention to detail make every trip smooth and stress‑free.

We’ve already reserved our sixth trip with Odynovo, which says everything about the level of trust and satisfaction we have with this company. Highly recommend Odynovo Travel and especially John Hu.

We were looking for a one week programme to China and approached Odynovo to help us with this. From my brief they put together a detailed itinerary that accurately covered our needs (Beijing and Xi'an)and was at a fair price. On proceeding we were kept in touch with all requirements. The programme was delivered faultlessly. Our guides, drivers and cars were all of the highest standard and all visits and choices of hotels were excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

We toured Thailand with Odynovo Tours. It was a perfect trip - fun, interesting and no stress! Our tour coordinator, Ander Zou, really listened to what I wanted to do and didn't want to do. He was incredibly quick and responsive throughout the planning process. The guides and drivers, especially Nick and Praew, were very knowledgeable, kind and fun. Most days included two big meals and we were not hungry for a third. They were great restaurants too-including one with a Michelin star. The hotels were great, and they were notified of my food allergies ahead of time. Each individual activity was top tier and we experienced so many things that were not even on our itinerary. Everytime I had a thought like, "I wish I had asked to visit a hill tribe", the guide would say, " We're having lunch at a hill tribe and we can visit their village if you like," Knowing I like birdwatching, Ander contracted with a professional bird guide for our trip to a national park. Nick planned fun stops with local vendors ahead of time- teaching us to fold open a lotus, or making us smoothies. Praew brought her teenage daughter along one day to hang out with my teenage grandson and they bought us souvenirs to remember them by. If you don't have a lot of time to plan, want to get to know a lot of locals, and want to be pampered, these individualized tours are the way to go! My only suggestion is to budget for the guides of individual activities- not just the Odynovo guides. This is not at all expensive, I just did not realize that many places such as cooking schools, boat operators and elephant sanctuaries also appreciate small tips and I was sometimes short on cash.

Fantastic trip to Chengdu organized by Odynovo. Our tour guide Betty was phenomenal and our driver was top notch. She took us to see the Panda Research base at the right time to avoid crowds and we had a wonderful visit to see the Leshan Buddha which was amazing. This is part of a 6 week trip to China, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand organized by Odynovo and the service and accommodations have been top notch!

I can’t rave enough about Odynovo and their representative Mola. She organized a trip for my husband and myself to Vietnam and Thailand for just under a month. Mola put together flights, private tour guides, drivers, hotels, tours, some meals and handled all the details associated with an overseas trip. Everything was outstanding. Every detail handled, my numerous questions answered with patience and a lot of help.
I also was so impressed with our Tour Guides. Endy in Saigon was so personable and knowledgeable. He did a great job of giving us a lot of background about our sites and helping us understand local cultures and lifestyles. Ky was our tour guide in the Central Highlands and he met us the night before we started our tours to gather information about us. We told him how my husband had served in VN during the war and gave the name of the US camp. That night (before our tour started) Ky researched where the camp had been located and took my husband and I there. This indeed was the highlight of our trip to allow my husband to be able to stand on the ground where he once served. This was above and beyond what we expected – thank you Ky. We had 2 more tour guides in VN – Vu who showed us the sights of Hoi An and Hue, took us to some great local restaurants and spent time answering questions and giving us local background; Thanh who was our guide in Hanoi and Halong Bay – he also was so helpful in understanding the culture of the North and seeing local sites. In Thailand we had Vicky who helped us understand the sites we were seeing and when I lost my credit card helped us find the last place I used it and talked to several people to try and locate the card. Our last guide was Nick who did a great job of explaining all the backgrounds, customs and importance of the religious and historical sites we saw. Nick was so willing to answer all our questions and when he found out that my husband liked sprite – the next day it was in the cooler for us – he went out of his way for us. Every guide was there for us every step of the way, we never had to worry about transfers, flights, questions, they walked us through everything and they often took pictures which they sent to us. Also hats off to the drivers– they maneuvered outrageous traffic without any stress. Thank you Mola for a great trip and for picking outstanding guides – we had the best time.

Cathy Hou was great, responded quickly and arranged the tour and bullet trains (Shinkansen) between Tokyo and Kyoto. We found the guides and drivers to be excellent, safe, accommodating, kind and knowledgeable. 8 family members ranged in age from 21-80. Everyone had excellent comments only.

This was a 'bucket list' vacation which exceeded all of our expectations, thanks to the excellent itinerary assembled by Odynovo, the quality and support provided by the tour guides/driver, the Travel Consultant, and the effort to ensure that every step of the trip was completely worry free. Every effort was made to satisfy our needs, optimize time at all tourist destinations, and spend such quality, expert time explaining the history at each stop. Further, with the huge amount to see, the tour guides effort to steer us towards and explain important items at each location was so much appreciated - otherwise it could have easily been overwhelming trying to see everything (whether relevant and important or not). Egypt can be a challenging place to visit due to language and culture issues, not to mention the traffic and crowds - Odynovo really made a tremendous difference to eliminating any stress and ensuring that we had only great memories. We may never be able to travel any other way after experiencing the quality service we got from Odynovo.

My husband and I really enjoyed our trip to Southeast Asia put together by Cathy Hou at Odynovo. She was always very responsive to our questions before and during the trip and set up a great itinerary with fabulous hotels and a great schedule with plenty of "down time" so that we could enjoy our accommodations. Everything worked seamlessly and I would highly recommend this company and Cathy.

Odynovo - Always, more than you imagine.
Queenie organized/prepared for us trip #8 this time Australia/New Zealand and like always seamless from beginning to the end.

My wife had always wanted to go, and it lived up to our every expectation. As usual, everything expertly managed by the Odynovo team - collected at airport and personally transferred with a history lesson to the hotel – no question too hard or too silly. First night our Guide Dilip insisted that we drop the prearranged boat view of the Aarti Ceremony – little did we know he had pre-booked unique seats around a temple with an amazing view right above the main ceremony. He sat with us and explained a 1-hour event that just set the scene for our whole trip. Thanks so much. The next day Dilip followed up with so much information during our 6:30am boat trip on River Ganges, then in and around the local around streets, so much to see and experience – it’s another world. After lunch, we took the boat to Assi Ghat where he met us again with Vish our Driver and we spent the rest of the day seeing new Varanasi, with incredible sights, experiences and more. What a team and so well done. Dilip was very kind to my wife, helping her all the way around a challenging street walk but she made it.
A special call out to the Brijrama Hotel, if you can afford it (not cheap) go for it. The location and experience is just perfect, it’s special, convenient and simply unique. A once in a lifetime. There is literally no better place to stay on the Ganges. The historical hotel has been so well renovated, with so much love and detail to see and do. Plenty provided free of charge to guests to immerse themselves in the place. So many personal touches to add to your experience. The staff were especially nice, everyone so helpful, kind and supportive. Leaving was sad, but what an uplifting experience.

Working with our travel consultant, Cathy, was extremely easy. She was very prompt in returning emails, accommodating changes that we wanted for our itinerary, and even changes our lunches for the end of the trip. She checked in with me throughout our trip. Highly recommend - traveling with a private guide and driver is totally the way to go!

Vietnam and Cambodia
We recently returned from 14 days in Vietnam & Cambodia. The trip was planned and organized by Shelly Qin at Odynovo who did a superb job coordinating all the details of the itinerary. We had many questions prior to leaving and Shelly Qin always responded very promptly and also provided help in obtaining the required entry visas for Vietnam . The itinerary was first established using Odynovo's proposed itinerary to which we made a few changes that were easily accommodated.

The hotels were 5*, the guides were knowledgeable, friendly and helpful and the drivers were very efficient navigating through the traffic in Hanoi and Saigon. Everything worked like a charm with no delays except when the traffic was too heavy.

We highly recommend Odynovo!
