Amazing China Adventure Our trip to China was coordinated by Leila who did an excellent job making an itinerary for our 4 children age ranges 5-14. In Shanghai, Stephen was excellent and explained things in a way our kids could understand while showing us all that Shanghai had to offer. In Zhangjiajie, Sienna was phenomenal! Her kindness, thoughtfulness, and care for our whole family made her town one of our most memorable and favorite to visit. She showed us the mountains and Heaven’s Gate and knew how to navigate the city. We really loved her! Jessica in Xi’an introduced us to some amazing local Chinese food including biang biang noodles and fried dough that was vegetarian and delicious! Candy in Beijing was wonderful and helped our kids navigate the Forbidden City and Great Wall by providing cool strips and insect stickers to help them be prepared for the journey. She was thoughtful and very knowledgeable about the history of Beijing. All of our drivers were on time and professional and we highly recommend Odynovo for everyone.

I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience touring China—this trip truly exceeded every expectation, and that’s entirely thanks to the incredible team of guides and local managers in each city. In Shanghai, Mr. Frank Ji set the tone for the entire trip. He was professional, knowledgeable, and so welcoming from the moment we arrived. He made navigating such a vibrant, fast-paced city feel effortless while sharing meaningful insight into both the history and modern culture. We felt completely taken care of. Our time in Zhangjiajie with Ms. Michelle Ye was absolutely unforgettable. Not only is Zhangjiajie one of the most breathtaking places I’ve ever seen, but Michelle made the experience even more special with her warmth, organization, and deep knowledge of the area. From the Avatar Mountains to every scenic viewpoint, everything was seamless and magical. In Chongqing, Mr. Luther Zou brought such great energy and expertise. Chongqing can be overwhelming with its size and uniqueness, but he made it exciting and easy to explore. His recommendations, guidance, and attention to detail made our time there feel immersive and fun. Finally, in Beijing, Ms. Tracy Liu was exceptional. Touring such historic landmarks—from the Forbidden City to the Great Wall—felt incredibly meaningful with her guidance. She explained everything with such depth and passion, making history come alive in a way we’ll never forget. I also want to give a huge thank you to the local managers in each city who worked behind the scenes to ensure everything ran smoothly. Knowing we had support in Shanghai, Zhangjiajie, Chongqing, and Beijing gave us so much peace of mind throughout the trip. Overall, this was one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had. Every guide was kind, professional, and genuinely cared about making our trip special. I would recommend this team to anyone without hesitation—they truly made China unforgettable.

Hangzhou trip with guide Avoca We had Avoca as a guide for our Hangzhou trip. He was very attentive and very helpful. He also was sure to check in with us and make sure the guide and our stay in China was well curated to our needs. We definitely recommend him in the future!

Amazing journey through Guilin Guilin and Yangshuo were maybe the highlights of our trip to China. Our tour guide, Irene, was excellent and helped guide us around, explained the local culture and was very friendly with the whole family. She was helpful and hands on whenever needed and also gave us space and guidance to explore on our own. We went on a bike ride, visited the market and did a cooking class, learning techniques which we are still working to master. Overall an incredible experience.

Reliable company Odynovo has organized our trip to Xinjiang in China. We visited different places of interest from the north to the south of the region: Urumqi, Sayram lake, Kuqa, Aksu, Nalati, Kashgar and the Baisha and Karakul lakes. We contracted private transport and a preference for hiking whenever possible, even though this is not very common in China. Our guide Ali, a Urumqi native, proved to be very professional and experienced and also spoke good English as well as the regional languages, which proved to be useful when treating with the locals. Our driver was also very reliable, as was our vehicle. We can recommend this company not only for their professionalism but also for answering quickly when there were any questions.

Amazing tour through Xi’an Our entire experience in China with Odynovo was excellent, but our time in Xi’an with Jessica was above and beyond. She was a passionate and knowledgeable guide to the local culture and history, helping us navigate our way through crowded sites, and was especially kind and friendly and went out of her way to make sure we felt welcome. 10/10 would definitely recommend this experience

We recently took a tour to China with odynovo. The experience was fantastic! They made everything very easy. We have historically not used travel agencies, but felt that one was needed in China. Our experience was good enough to want to use them again in the future. Pre-Trip Process: We received proposals from multiple travel agencies and odynovo was the most responsive and professional. They really customized the itinerary to what we wanted and didn't just try to force a pre-packaged itinerary on us. The way they presented information was both very well organized and informative. After booking they were always available for questions and even last minute tweaks. They sent us travel requirements, trips, and tips. Made sure we knew the intricacies of travel in china (wechat and alipay) that made our trip much smoother. Payment: They accept payment in multiple ways, which is nice. My one critique is that they charge a fee for the use of credit card. When having to pre-pay to an international agency I have never used, the protection of making the payment via CC is nice. Hate having to pay extra for it. Travel: They were very organized about the travel. Since we were traveling to 5 different cities and China doesn't release most train tickets until 7 days out, they were constantly arranging travel throughout the trip. They kept us informed throughout the process. Gave us detailed instructions including photos of locations to meet the guided in the stations. We always had an emergency contact if needed although we never did. Guides: This is their secret sauce. Their guides were amazing. Each one was responsive, friendly, informative, and everything we had hoped for. Since my daughters are learning Chinese they were extremely patient in working on teaching and practicing Chinese with them while also translating and keeping my wife and I informed. They did a great job reading the family and adjusting to allow more time where we wanted and less time in areas we weren't interested. In Beijing we had Candy as our guide. She spoke great English. Since we were traveling in July it was HOT! She was always there with cold water for us. So much of our experience in Beijing was about history and she did a great job letting us know all the little details that make it interesting. In Zhangjiajie our guide was Michelle. She might be the kindest and most complimentary person we have ever met. She kept our spirits up during long mountain hikes. The girl's really related to her. She spoke the best English of all of our guides. In Guilin we had Boon as our guide. Boon was always there with a local food to try. Fresh plums, grapes, passion fruit, osmanthus ice cream, rice noodles, and so many more. He was very patient and attentive. When we changed plans and hit a market one afternoon he was the epitome of patience as my wife and daughter visited every store and stall. He was a great sport and jumped in to join us on some of our crazy adventures. In Chengdu we had Lucky as our guide. If the other guides deserve five stars, Lucky deserves six! She was that good. I loved the mix of assertiveness, drive, love, and service she provided. She brought enthusiasm to every activity. She set a fast pace to make sure we could do everything we wanted and when there were crowds she pushed her way forward to make sure we got to experience things. Each day she brought the girls a small gift that made them love her. At one point my wife expressed the desire for some fresh fruit juice. Lucky ran ahead to every shop we passed to check to see if they had fresh pressed juice. We gave up, but she persevered until she finally found some. If I could bring her with me on every family trip I would!

Great first stop on tour of China Beijing was the first stop on our tour of China arranged by Odynovo. Our tour guide was Lilly who picked us up at the airport and introduced us to the city. She was very knowledgeable and passionate about Chinese culture and history and was always happy to engage in conversation and answer our questions. I also appreciate her being flexible with our schedule according to our feelings throughout the day

5 out of 5 stars for Gina Liu @ Odynovo. So glad I booked with them for our China trip . The guides in both Cities ( Chengdu/Beijing ) went above and beyond. Really polite and made sure we were comfortable and hydrated as it was their summer season. Definitely recommend going with a guide if it’s your first time over there it take the stress out of finding your way around..

The Odynovo crew were absolutely fantastic from go to whoa. during our two weeks in China we had five different Guides all of whom were proficient in English. Their knowledge of China and it's wonderful history was encyclopedic. Our triup was last minute but Cathy gave us an itinerary that hit all of our main topics. Fantastic.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Best Guide We Could Have Asked For! Our family of twelve had the absolute privilege of spending several days in Beijing with Emma, and we truly cannot imagine our trip without her. From the very first moment we met her, she welcomed us with such warmth and kindness that it felt like we were being shown around the city by a dear friend. She made us feel comfortable, cared for, and completely at home throughout our entire stay. Emma is incredibly knowledgeable, and her passion for Beijing shines through in every story and every place she shares. She brought the city’s history and culture to life in such an engaging way that every stop became a memorable experience. On top of that, she has a wonderful sense of humor that kept us laughing, and her Spanish is absolutely fluent, making communication effortless for everyone in our family. What truly made Emma extraordinary, however, was the care and dedication she showed us beyond the tour itself. At the end of our time in Beijing, she accompanied us to the train station for our journey to our next destination. As a family of twelve, we expected the station to be stressful and overwhelming, but Emma transformed it into one of the most memorable parts of our trip. She guided us every step of the way, made sure we were treated like special guests all the way to our seats, and even surprised us by buying lunch and carefully packing everything for us to enjoy on the train. It was such an unexpected and thoughtful gesture that touched our hearts. Emma consistently went above and beyond anything we expected from a tour guide. Her professionalism, generosity, attention to detail, and genuine care made us feel like family. Thanks to her, we didn’t just visit Beijing—we experienced it in a way we will treasure forever. If you’re looking for a guide who is knowledgeable, fun, compassionate, and truly passionate about creating unforgettable experiences, look no further than Emma. We give her our highest recommendation and are deeply grateful for everything she did for our family. She was one of the highlights of our entire trip, and we will always remember her with great appreciation. Thank you, Emma, for making our time in Beijing so special. We hope to see you again someday!

Our Beijing tour with Crystal A few days ago we had a 2 days trip in Beijing with our guide Crystal from Odynovo. We were welcomed at the airport for transfer to the hotel. Crystal was very friendly, helpful and her English was very good. When we had a question, we could always call her. Besides the booked activities she proposed some additional activities which were very welcome like the acrobatics show and tea tasting. In a nutshell, we enjoyed our trip and our guide.

Breathtaking views with a kind and knowledgeable guide. We had a fabulous three days in the Guilin area, arranged by our travel consultant, Jake Zhong who invited us to have a wonderful meal with him in beautiful Guilin. Other sites included the Longii rice terraces, ancient villages of the Zhuang people, and the karst mountains along the Li River to Yangshuo. Heidi Jiang was our tour guide in Guilin and the surrounding areas. She was very intelligent and willing to share all about her region, her family background, and answer lots of questions we had. We learned a ton about imperial dynasties, farming, and regional development. She was kind and generous and shared some wonderful places to eat delicious regional meals. She responded well when one of us fell while hiking, quickly getting first aid and transportation. We really appreciated all that she did for us throughout our three-day visit.

Such a memorable experience I would just like to say a Big Thank You for our amazing holiday to Japan. Your arrangements with airport transfers, sightseeing tours and train arrangements were outstanding and we would also like to give a special thank you to all the Tour Guides who escorted us around Tokyo, Hakone, Kyoto, Nare, Osaka and Hiroshima. Their knowledge and expertise in guiding us through all the tours was brilliant and we all thoroughly enjoyed our trip. They were very quick to gauge the ability of our party and adapted the tours accordingly. They all truly made our journey to Japan so memorable. Please could you pass on our appreciation to all those involved and especially to the Tour Guides.
