Bejing thank you Tracy We booked our trip with Odynovo and had three wonderful days in Beijing, but what made those three days so special to us was meeting Tracy. We arrived at the airport a little before midnight after a very long journey, and there was Tracy waiting for us with the biggest smile, waving to us and making us feel instantly welcome. After arriving in a country we had never visited before, so late at night, seeing that beautiful smile and having someone there who was genuinely happy to see us made us feel so comfortable. It was such a lovely welcome. Tracy took us to our hotel and went through our itinerary for the following day. Once we arrived, she made sure we were settled into our room and comfortable before saying goodnight and telling us she would see us in the morning. It was such a small thing, but it meant a lot to us. From that very first night, we could see that Tracy genuinely cared about us and wanted to make sure we were okay. The next morning, after a lovely sleep and breakfast, we started our first day with Tracy. We visited Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. Tracy's knowledge was incredible, but what we loved most was the way she shared it with us. She didn't just tell us facts — she helped us understand what we were seeing and made the history come alive. At lunchtime, Tracy once again showed us how thoughtful she was. She asked what we would like to eat and really listened to us. She then took us to a fantastic restaurant where we had an amazing lunch. It was delicious, and we loved that Tracy wanted us to experience food that we would genuinely enjoy. That afternoon we explored the Hutong neighborhoods. Tracy took so much time showing us around and explaining the local way of life. She didn't rush us. She wanted us to stop, look, ask questions and really take in what we were seeing. It gave us such a beautiful insight into everyday life in Beijing. The following day was our full day at the Great Wall. Tracy gave us plenty of time to walk, explore and simply enjoy being there. We never felt rushed or that we were being pushed from one place to another. She understood that this was a special experience for us and allowed us to enjoy the whole day at our own pace. That evening, we asked Tracy if she could help us find somewhere to try Peking duck. She happily arranged it for us, and what an experience it was! The Peking duck was absolutely amazing — it practically melted in our mouths. It was one of those meals we will talk about for years, and we were so grateful that Tracy took the time to arrange it for us. Our last day in Beijing took us to the Summer Palace, which was absolutely beautiful. Once again, Tracy's knowledge was exceptional. She explained everything so clearly and made sure we had time to appreciate the beauty of the place rather than simply walking through it. Then came the part we really didn't want — saying goodbye to Tracy. When our time in Beijing was finished, Tracy took us all the way to the train station. She didn't just drop us off and leave. She stayed with us, helped us through the station and even lined up with us to make sure we got onto the train quickly and comfortably. That really touched us. By then, Tracy felt like so much more than our tour guide. She felt like someone who genuinely cared about us. Looking back, it wasn't just the incredible places we saw in Beijing that we will remember. We will remember Tracy's beautiful smile, her kindness, her patience, her laughter and the way she always looked after us. She made us feel safe, comfortable and welcome in a country that was completely new to us. She was always watching out for us, always making sure we were enjoying ourselves and always willing to go that extra mile. We honestly felt as though we were traveling with a friend rather than a tour guide. By the end of our three days, we were sad to say goodbye. Tracy, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our first experience of China so incredibly special. We will remember our time in Beijing with such happy memories, and you will always be a very special part of those memories. You are a truly beautiful person and an exceptional guide, and we feel very lucky that you were the person who welcomed us to Beijing.

An unforgettable 17 days trip to China – thanks to Jasmine! From the very beginning, Jasmine understood exactly what we were looking for and created an itinerary that was truly perfect for us. Every detail was carefully planned according to our interests and requests, from the amazing hotels to the excellent guides and professional drivers. What impressed us most was how much Jasmine cared about every little detail. Throughout the entire trip, she kept in touch with us and made sure that everything was going exactly as planned. She was always available, almost 24/7, and whenever we had a question or needed something, she responded quickly and took care of it. All of our guides and drivers were professional, friendly, reliable, and spoke very good English. Everything worked smoothly, which allowed us to simply relax and enjoy China without having to worry about anything. Jasmine is not just a travel consultant – she genuinely cares about her clients and wants them to have the best possible experience. We felt that we were in very good hands throughout the entire journey. We sincerely recommend Jasmine and Odynovo to anyone planning a trip to China. If you want a personalized, well-organized, high-quality trip with someone who pays attention to every detail and truly cares about you, Jasmine is the person to contact. Thank you so much, Jasmine, for an incredible journey and for making our trip to China so special!

fun inH' Hutong I had a great time visiting the old Beijing neighborhood with Angela. She is fun and knows her townn very well.

Our China tour. We loved touring around Shanghai. The food throughout our trip was delicious. Angie was a lovely guide. Her English was excellent. Although we encountered various issues, she worked hard to resolve them.

Hiking in Guilin We had a wonderful 4 days in Guilin. Definitely worth the visit and more. We hiked breathtaking mountains, walked the serene rivers , saw sunsets and sunrises, and took a gentle bamboo raft down the river. We enjoyed essential cultural heritage learning by making traditional Chinese fans with one of only two families who still do this. Our tour guide Ellen (Xujing) was very passionate and knowledgeable about the regions history and features. Navigating with a guide was very helpful and made things very seamless for us.

Unforgettable experience! Stunning landscape, beautiful experiences and amazing culture. Our guide Ellen was wonderful! Highly recommend everything about Guilin/Yangshuo.

Relaxed discoveries It's been only 3 days into my trip and so far so good! I was able to do all the planned activities in Hanoi, and I appreciated and enjoyed all of them! And my guide, Trihn, contributed greatly in my experience being positive! She is very punctual and professional, and appropriately flexible. And she is knowledgeable in Vietnam history, so I learned a lot! I'd recommend Odynovo for sure!

3 great days in Beijing with Odynovo We had Alice as our Odynovo guide for the first part of our visit to China, in Beijing. She was absolutely fantastic from the moment we came into arrivals from our flight, right through to getting us onto the high speed train for our next city, 3 days later. Always greeting us with a huge smile each morning, she was full of knowledge about all of the sights during our excursions and had a lot of tips about where to eat, have spa and massage treatments, particularly helpful after long days of walking the Great Wall, Tiananmen Square, The Forbidden City, etc. and we can’t forget our driver, Mr Yan, who always arrived on time and got us to and from our excursions efficiently and safely. Thank you Mr Yan. All in all, we knew Beijing was going to great but Alice helped to take our visit to another level. Thank you, Alice :-)

Private Odynovo tour to Honai Vietnam It’s our first time going to Vietnam. Our tour guide Sunny Vu and driver Thang took very good care of us. He speaks good English and explained the culture and origin of different points of interest in Honai very well. He’s punctual from the beginning to the end and ensured we properly checked in to our flight before departing.

Enjoying Hanoi in rainy days We joined the Odynovo Vietnam Hanoi Private tour the guide called Sunny Vu and driver Trang They are doing all the best to guide us in particular the challenges in the heavy rain days in Hanoi As well as the check in challenges in the Hanoi airport Sunny explained all his understanding of the history and gave a wonderful introduction of Hanoi Trang was driving very carefully and make sure we are safe Well done

Hanoi travel experience. Phung Thinh was a very helpful guide. She knew a lot about the history of Vietnam. Very kind, punctual and companies till the last minute. I would recommend her to any and everyone.

A Wonderful Vietnam Experience We would like to express our sincere thanks to Odynovo and their team for organising such a wonderful trip for us. We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our journey, and the experience created many wonderful memories that we will cherish. A very special mention must go to our outstanding tour guide, Mr. Nguyen Duong Nghia (Nghia). Nghia was much more than an excellent tour guide. Throughout our journey, he became a true ambassador for Vietnam's culture, history, people and environment. His extensive knowledge, professionalism, patience, kindness and genuine passion for his country made our experience truly exceptional. What impressed us most was the way Nghia introduced us to Vietnam. He did not simply take us to beautiful places; he helped us understand the history, traditions, culture, natural environment and everyday life of Vietnamese people. His enthusiasm and pride in his country were infectious and greatly enriched our journey. He was always attentive to our needs, thoughtful and friendly, and consistently willing to go the extra mile to make sure we had the best possible experience. His warmth and personality made us feel that we were travelling with a friend rather than simply being accompanied by a professional guide. We would also like to express our sincere appreciation to our excellent driver, Mr. Le. He was professional, reliable, caring and extremely attentive throughout the trip. His safe and careful driving made us feel comfortable and secure on every journey. He was always punctual, patient and ready to help with our luggage or anything else we needed. Both Nghia and Mr. Le went above and beyond to make our journey smooth, enjoyable and memorable. They are outstanding representatives of Odynovo and played a very important role in making our visit to Vietnam such a wonderful experience. Thank you again to Odynovo, Mr. Nghia and Mr. Le for an unforgettable journey. We will remember not only the beautiful places we visited, but also the knowledge, kindness and friendship that made the trip so special. We would be very happy to recommend Odynovo to our friends and colleagues.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional 16-Day China Journey with Odynovo Our 16-day China journey covering Beijing, Xi’an, Chengdu, Chongqing, Guilin & Yangshuo, Zhangjiajie and Shanghai was an incredible experience from start to finish. China is a challenging destination to plan independently, particularly when covering so many cities, high-speed trains, domestic transfers, attractions and different local logistics. Despite the complexity, the overall journey was extremely well organised, smooth and memorable, and we were able to experience the highlights of every destination comfortably. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned and gave us a wonderful mix of history, culture, nature, food and modern China. The city-level guides were a major strength of the trip. Alice in Beijing was amazing and made our first introduction to China's iconic historical attractions very enjoyable. Lily in Xi’an was excellent, particularly in explaining the history and significance of the Terracotta Warriors and the city's heritage. Dana in Chengdu was knowledgeable and ensured we had a great experience across the attractions planned. Yudy in Chongqing was helpful with the planned sightseeing, although there were a few challenges regarding itinerary coverage and some additional options offered, which we discussed with the team and resolved. This did cause a small break in what had otherwise been a very smoothly running itinerary, but importantly, it did not impact our overall experience. Boon in Guilin & Yangshuo was fantastic and added greatly to the experience of the spectacular landscapes and Li River. Joey in Zhangjiajie was excellent in managing the attractions and logistics in such a vast destination, while Felix in Shanghai was a great guide to conclude our journey. Overall, we were very happy with the guides and drivers across the different cities. A very special mention to Alex, who coordinated this entire journey with us from last November until the completion of our trip. Planning a complicated multi-city China itinerary requires tremendous attention to detail, and Alex was exceptional throughout. He was always available on WhatsApp, extremely responsive, attentive and proactive, and whenever we had a question, change or concern, he communicated clearly and resolved it efficiently. Even when we encountered the small issue in Chongqing, it was discussed and resolved properly. His consistent support before and throughout the trip gave us tremendous confidence, and honestly, Alex was a major reason why Odynovo left such a strong impression on us. Odynovo Tours deserves special appreciation for the overall end-to-end coordination. The hotel selections were excellent, with some amazing properties in fantastic locations, and the coordination between hotels, guides, drivers, airport/railway station pickups and drops was extremely well managed. For a destination as vast and logistically demanding as China, getting all these moving parts right is not easy, and Odynovo handled it remarkably well. Across the entire 16 days, there were no major hiccups, and the overall quality and execution of the trip were spectacular. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Highly recommended! We would definitely recommend Odynovo to anyone planning a China trip, especially travellers looking for a well-planned, comfortable and professionally coordinated multi-city experience without having to worry about the complicated logistics themselves. We were genuinely impressed with Odynovo and will definitely look at planning our future international trips with them as well. A huge thank you to Alex, all our wonderful city guides, drivers and the entire Odynovo team for making our China journey such a memorable experience. 🇨🇳❤️

EGYPT AEgypt MAZING COUNTRY AND PEOPLE We traveled to Egypt with last minute cancellation of Jordan as our government deemed it non essential. Bruce was fantastic and able to add Alexandria to our trip. Our guide Sherif was brilliant and Ahmed our driver navigated the very crazy Cairo traffic with ease. Ever flight was handled by an Odynovo rep to guide us thru the airports. All the tours were fantastic and even the very hot weather did not dampen the experience.

Great time had in Beijing! Thank you Felix Felix, our amazing guide was a jewel to have. His knowledge of Chinese history & customs was quite informative and an eye opener to say the least. We cannot leave out his amazing and enjoyable sense of humor 😄, and his patience! We like to ask a lot of questions and there was no one question left unanswered. We will definitely recommend Felix highly. Odynovo is quite lucky to have a high caliber guide as Felix as part of their staff. We also want to praise the punctuality and good driver skills of Ment, our driver. We were quite pleased to have such a great team to show us around Beijing. Thank you Felix and Ment, your Amazing attitude and great disposition were highly appreciated and helped make our time in Beijing even more enjoyable. Dr. Mel Weinstock and Nydia Ballesteros

A wonderful exceptional visit to Bejing thanks to Felix and our Driver Mr. Ment We were looking forward to this trip to China since it was our first time. We have used Odynovo before on a trip to Japan and it was superlative. Our first stop was Bejing arriving on a fight originating in Tampa Florida. After a total of -20hours we were met at the airport in Bejing by a delightful tour guide Felix! He brightened our life after the exhausted air trip. Not only was he delightful but also extremely knowledgable about every aspect of our experience in Bejing. Included in our visit was the Forbidden City, The Great Wall , the Summer Palace to mention a few . Felix was extremely knowledgable about all, entertaining and a pleasure to spend time with, Bejing was an exceptionally experience for us thanks to Felix— and our driver Mr Ment.
