An Unforgettable Xi’an Experience with an Amazing Guide We had an amazing experience during our trip to Xi’an. Everything was very well organized, and the entire journey was smooth and enjoyable. Our tour guide, Betty, was truly outstanding. Her English was excellent, and she explained the historical sites in a very clear, engaging, and informative way. Thanks to her, we were able to understand the rich history and culture of Xi’an much better. She was also very friendly, attentive, and always willing to help, which made the experience even more special. Betty also took us to incredibly delicious local restaurants that we would never have found on our own. These dining experiences were some of the highlights of our trip. Since we were traveling with children, she was especially thoughtful and supportive—always coming up with great ideas and adjusting the program according to our needs and preferences. She made everything very easy and comfortable for our family. The driver was very professional and careful, and we always felt safe and comfortable throughout the trip. Overall, we are extremely satisfied and would highly recommend this team to anyone visiting China. Thank you, Betty, for making our trip so memorable!

30 Aussies in China ❤️🇦🇺🇨🇳 We are travelling with a group of 30 people (8 families) from Sydney Australia on a 14 day tour of 5 cities (Beijing, Xian, Chengdu, Zhangjajie, Shanghai). Odynovo helped us organise all hotels, trains, internal flights and tour guides in each city. Our tour guide in Beijing was Alice and Jo Zhou in Xian. Both tour guides were very professional. We were particulatly impressed with Jo’s knowledge of Xian and Imperial China. She had us all captivated and wanting more information about China’s rich history. We would thoroughly recommend Odynovo for both these cities. Very professional and knowledgable.

13-Day Private Tour in Bangko, Kanchanaburi, Chiang Mai,and Koh Samui, Thailand 13-Day Private Tour in Bangkok, Kanchanaburi, Chiang Mai,and Koh Samui, Thailand 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," 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. 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.

Seamless Beijing Trip with Ofynovo – Highly Recommend! Our Beijing trip was truly unforgettable, and a big part of that experience was thanks to Ofynovo and their incredible team. From the very beginning, Allison Chiang made the planning process seamless. Her email communications were always thorough, prompt, and thoughtful, which gave us great confidence leading up to the trip. Once we arrived, our tour guide Dina exceeded all expectations. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making our experience special. Her English is excellent, which made communication effortless and is especially important for travelers who do not speak Mandarin. From recommending great local restaurants to sharing rich historical insights at every attraction, she made each day meaningful and enjoyable. What really stood out was how she took care of us every step of the way—even personally walking us to the train and seeing us off as we departed for our next city. That level of care is rare and deeply appreciated. We also want to recognize our driver, Mr. Bai, who ensured all our transportation needs were handled smoothly and safely. Navigating Beijing traffic is no small task, and we always felt comfortable and well taken care of. Overall, this was a well-organized, stress-free, and enriching experience. We would highly recommend Ofynovo to anyone planning a trip to Beijing!

Incredible multi-day & multi-city tour of Vietnam Incredible tour across multiple cities in Vietnam, including Hanoi, Ha Long Bay & Cat Ba Island, Hue, Da Nang and Hoi An. Both our tour guides were exceptional! Jerry (Hanoi & Ha Long Bay) was an amazing ambassador of Hanoi, providing great insight into the city and its centuries of history. Thai (Da Nang & Hoi An) is an outstanding guide - his history lessons, restaurant & retail recommendations and ability to explain cultural nuances were all top notch; we’ve been truly blown away. On top of all that, both guides (and our drivers) have been friendly, warm and ever so pleasant to spend the days with, making our trip even more unforgettable. Highly recommend to anyone interested in a curated Vietnamese experience!

While searching on Google for a tour agency in China, we found this option, and what a success! Jake Zhong was our advisor, and the communication and information were clear and perfect. He was always attentive to our requests. The two cities, Beijing and Xi'an, were very well organized. Everything was perfectly coordinated. Tracy, our guide in Beijing, was excellent. Jenny in Xi'an was outstanding—patient, very knowledgeable, and always with us. Excellent!

After a very positive experience in Thailand with Odynovo two years ago, I chose them again for a three-week trip to Vietnam and Cambodia last month—and once again, they did not disappoint. Our itinerary included Hanoi, Sapa, Mai Chau, Pu Luong, Ninh Binh, Ha Long Bay, Hoi An, and Siem Reap. Max Yang helped us craft a truly customized itinerary. We had significant input into the destinations and experiences, and Max was incredibly responsive to our many questions. He also offered thoughtful suggestions that aligned perfectly with our goals. We were especially interested in authentic experiences—learning about ethnic minority cultures, everyday Vietnamese life, and the region’s natural beauty—and the itinerary delivered on all fronts. One of the greatest advantages of traveling with Odynovo was the peace of mind. We could fully relax and enjoy the trip, knowing that transportation was seamless, accommodations were consistently comfortable, and we had knowledgeable private guides in each location. Every person we encountered through Odynovo was prompt, friendly, and professional. The guides, in particular, were outstanding. In Hanoi and throughout northern Vietnam, our guide Nguyen Duy Dien was exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable, answered all of our questions with patience and enthusiasm, and navigated every detail effortlessly. He selected excellent local restaurants for lunch, always keeping my friend’s dietary restrictions in mind. Dien also helped us capture beautiful photos from unique vantage points and assisted with practical needs like ATMs, currency exchange, and recommendations for evening activities. He was flexible, attentive, and a pleasure to spend time with—we especially enjoyed learning about his family and daily life. When a small issue arose in Mai Chau, he resolved it within an hour. Our driver during this portion of the trip was equally impressive—skilled in navigating busy roads, always punctual, and maintaining an immaculate vehicle. In Hoi An, our guide Huynh Duc Quoc assisted us with airport transfers and a day of touring, as we had planned some free time to visit a friend. He was engaging, energetic, and very helpful—particularly in securing tickets to the Hoi An Memories Show. In Siem Reap, we were guided by Soth Sothy (“T”), who brought the Angkor Wat complex to life over two days with his deep knowledge and storytelling. He was especially excited to take us to see the sunrise over Angkor Wat during the equinox, when the sun rises directly above the central tower—a truly special experience. Despite the crowds, he knew exactly where to position us for the best view. T’s personality made the experience even more enjoyable—he was humorous, warm, and engaging throughout. He also recommended a dinner show that was not on our itinerary, which turned out to be a highlight. Additionally, he connected us with a reliable and friendly tuk-tuk driver for our free time. Our driver in Siem Reap, known as “Demon,” was attentive and thoughtful—after long, hot days exploring, it was a treat to return to a cool, air-conditioned van stocked with cold towels and drinks. Odynovo’s strengths truly lie in their personalization, exceptional service, and the quality of their guides. I would not hesitate to use them again and highly recommend them to others.

Lovely 10day China trip We had an excellent 10 day private tour with Odynovo in March 2026. Our guides were all really helpful and knowledgeable . At Beijing train station, I had an accident and my guide, Helen and Datong guide, Rita, sorted out my medical needs. Thank you. We so enjoyed the biang biang noodle, which Kevin took us in Xi'an. Finally,,,my lovely Emma in Chengdu. She was so wonderful, took us to see pandas and historical places.. She also went out of her way, taking us extra sight seeing which wasn't part of our tour. Wished we had stayed longer in Chengdu - so much more to see there.

Unforgettable Siem Reap Tour with Odynovo As part of a three-week Vietnam and Cambodia trip organized by Odynovo, we spent 3.5 days in Siem Reap with our guide Soth Sothy (“T”) and driver “Demon.” This was my second trip with Odynovo, and it was just as outstanding as the first. Odynovo is extremely well organized, with excellent customer service and well-planned logistics. It was reassuring to know transportation was always reliable and accommodations were consistently comfortable. What truly sets them apart, however, is the quality of their guides. "T" was exceptional—passionate, knowledgeable, and engaging. He brought Angkor Wat to life with his storytelling, and his humor and warmth made every day enjoyable. He was also extremely attentive, making sure we were comfortable, hydrated, and getting the most out of each experience. He even arranged an Cambodian dance/dinner show (not originally on our itinerary) that became a highlight of our stay and helped us organize a trusted tuk-tuk driver for free time. Our driver, “Demon,” was equally wonderful—professional, friendly, and always attentive. After long, hot days of sightseeing, it was a pleasure returning to a cool van with cold towels and drinks waiting for us, not to mention a warm smile. Siem Reap itself felt very safe and welcoming. T and Demon made our visit truly memorable, and I highly recommend both them and Odynovo.

Incredible tour guide in Xi’an We just finished our first-ever experience using a tour guide service, and Odynovo made our trip to China absolutely seamless. If you don't speak the language but want to truly enjoy your time without the stress of logistics, I highly recommend them. Jessica is a wealth of knowledge. She took us to see the Terracotta Warriors and explained the details so well that my son learned how to distinguish between a general, an officer, and soldiers. We learned so much about the First Emperor Qin and the Silk Road. Based on her recommendation, we saw a Silk Road show that was visually beautiful and very touching—a major highlight!

Guilin and Yangzhou worth a visit! I went to China with my 10 year old grandson using Odynovo. All the guides were amazing but Ellen in Guilin and Yangzhou really stood out. The reed flute cave, the Li River cruise, bicycles and bamboo draft in Yangzhou all were great. Ellen made everything fascinating for a 10 year old boy and me! Loved the Banyan tree hotel in Yangzhou with all their ducks, geese, coy and peacocks! Private touring with guides like Ellen really has us spoiled!

Loved the terracotta warriors I just shared an unbelievable trip to China with my 10 year old grandson - all organized by Odynovo. In Xi’an our guide, Betty, not only took us to see the terracotta warriors, but also up on the old city wall and to a local food market full of impressive vegetables, varieties of eggs from quail to duck to chicken, plus all sorts of fresh meat. A highlight of our stay was a visit to a local home to make dumplings and noodles and enjoy a delicious lunch. Betty was really good at making everything fascinating not only for me but for a 10 year old boy as well. Did I mention our hotel had peacocks roaming free? Five star experience all around! Especially our guide, Betty, and driver - I am getting spoiled having a personal tour guide and private car!

Trip of a Lifetime with Odynovo Travel to China and Vietnam ! A flawlessly organized, first-class journey by Odynovo Travel and Gianna Liao. A true trip of a lifetime! We were a group of 10 retirees from the United States and recently completed a perfectly organized 16-day journey with 10 days in China and 6 days in Vietnam. Every detail was handled seamlessly, allowing us to simply enjoy the experience. Our trip designer, Ms. Gianna Liao of Odynovo Travel, was exceptional. Over several months, she worked with us patiently and thoughtfully, accommodating every request and revision with professionalism, flexibility, and a calm, reassuring approach. She truly understood our needs and crafted an itinerary that exceeded all expectations. In every city, we were welcomed by outstanding guides and professional drivers who made the entire journey smooth and stress-free. We are especially grateful to Ms. Alice Zuo (Beijing), Ms. Amber Yan (Xi’an), Ms. Yudi Li (Chongqing), Ms. Bonnie Yu (Shanghai), Mr. Nguyen Cong Quyen (Hanoi), Mr. Trương Hoài Nam (Ben) (Ho Chi Minh City), and Mr. Wally and Arthur Liao (Beijing return). Each went above and beyond helping recover forgotten items and ensuring they reached us at our next destination, assisting with after-hours medical care, and guiding us through airport check-in and departures. Their professionalism and attention to detail made a lasting impression on all of us. The itinerary was superb. Here are some highlights for China and Vietnam. We visited the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, and Mutianyu section of the Great Wall in Beijing; the Terracotta Warriors and Tang Le Gong, where traditional dumpling banquets meet dazzling and colorful song-and-dance performances, in Xi’an; Eling Park, Liziba Light Rail, the Great Hall of the People, and the Three Gorges Dam Museum in Chongqing; and Shanghai’s financial district skyline views, Jade Buddha Temple, and former French Concession. Travel between cities was efficient and comfortable, with high-speed trains and a domestic flight. In Vietnam, we explored Hanoi, including the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and a delightful rickshaw ride through the old city center, followed by a memorable overnight cruise in Ha Long Bay aboard the Paradise Elegance. In Ho Chi Minh City, we visited the War Museum, Reunification Palace, Cu Chi Tunnels, and the Mekong Delta, where we even helped prepare a meal at a local home by the river. Another rickshaw ride through the old city added a charming and authentic touch. Accommodations were excellent throughout, including well-known five-star hotels such as Regent, Wyndham Grand, Westin, and Max, along with the Peridot Boutique Hotel in Hanoi and the Nikko International Saigon. Meals were outstanding, often in high-end restaurants where we were treated like VIP guests while enjoying authentic local specialties. We highly recommend Ms. Gianna Liao and Odynovo Travel. We also highly recommend all the exceptional guides and dedicated drivers who accompanied us along the way. Together, they created a seamless, enriching, and truly unforgettable experience.

Small private 5 day tour Fantastic experience doing a small private group tour from Hanoi to tam coc to ha long bay. Had the amazing guidance of NGUYỄN DƯƠNG NGHĨA. Nghia had a brilliant understanding of vietnam cultures and history and went above and beyond to make sure all our questions were awnsered, has a passion for his job and wouldn't recommend anyone else. Worth also noting was very flexible and easy to accommodate if slight changes were made to schedule, made the trip very easy and relaxed. We had a great mix of Vietnamese countryside as well as the inner city of Hanoi and was taken to all the best spots buy our guide. Our driver was Mr NAM, who was excellent, very efficient, VERY safe and punctual. Quality of bus was superb and always had refreshments ready for us and met all of our needs. Only improvement that could be made would be slightly later starts on some days however not always possible due to schedule. And Ha long bay was extremely busy with cruises and long long lines at the main caves and if there are similar cruised operators in nearby Bay's that are much quieter id recommended going there. Overall excellent!

Duc's knowledge and passion made the hectic itinerary pass seemlessly. Xuan was always there to greet us in his immaculately presented vehicle despite the hectic Hanoi traffic. I genuinely don't know how the service they gave us could be surpassed. Many thanks! Emma and Stuart
