Allison organized our trip to Thailand. She was very responsive to emails and put a thorough itinerary together for our trip. We currently just started the 10 day trip, but so far everything is coming together as promised. Very reassuring when traveling to a foreign country to have your expectations met!

This holiday was everything we expected - and some more. Booking was easy with Cathy working closely to rearrange the itinerary according to our requirements. The second day of our tour we requested a change of vehicle as my husband had nausea travelling at the back in a sedan. The very next day a van was arranged with no extra cost. Much appreciated. The guide travelled with us all the way to Chiang Mai and he took care of all our needs - such as arranging vegetarian food for lunch. He was knowledgeable, courteous, and entertaining. We thoroughly enjoyed this holiday and have no hesitation in recommending this to others.

My husband and I booked our trip to Thailand with Odynovo, Nikki made booking the trip so easy. She gave us a very detailed itinerary and was so accommodating to our needs. Our itinerary hit everything we wanted to do and then some!

Thailand is truly amazing and so is Cathy at Odynovo, Being able to contact her directly via social media made any changes to the itinerary instant and trouble free. She really is a gem. The guide spoke fluent English and always had an answer for all our curious questions, the driver too was exceptional, at one stage he received a fine because two of us were not wearing seat belts and he did not ask to be reimbursed. The people in Thailand are the most friendly, sincere and happy.

We think that we hit the jackpot with our tours with Lucky in Bangkok. Now that we are in Chiang Mai, we now have the ability to make comparisons. We have also never taken part of an organized tour/booking company before.

Lucky is amazing. She cares for you and also does a phenomenal job of reading you. Are you tired? Too hot? Kids not having fun? She observes all of this and tailors your experience without saying anything (other than making sure it is ok with you).

She is also very candid and will give you a real look into Thailand. I was honestly skeptical whether I would enjoy this, as I’m always a ‘do it yourself’ traveler, but I’m converted. Ask for Lucky if you can!
