Travelling with Odyssey tour was absolutely amazing through some of the most beautiful places across Myanmar. I would definitely recommend trying Odyssey's travel packages as they are extremely well curated to ensure you make the most of your stay in Myanmar. Getting around Myanmar and the language barrier can be difficult so having such amazing tour guides was an absolute must. Our tour went over 4/3 nights days, starting in Yangon with all internal flights included (which was incredibly convenient and well organised). Our first flight took us from Yangon to Bagan. Here you will be able to see the vast array of pagodas and stupas that litter the countryside, it really is an incredible sight. Our tour guide was incredibly professional and was very insightful on all the major Pagodas and the local family businesses. This was topped off with a relaxing sunset cruise on the Ayerwaddy river. In the morning make sure you ask the hotel staff to book you a horse-cart ride. Getting right up among the stupas and seeing the countryside was absolutely breath-taking. It also helped that our driver and his horse named Rosé (after the kpop star) was a rather talented photographer. The next day we travelled to Mt Popa, and climbed up to a temple a top a mountain before staying at one of the most serene hotels, which overlooked the aforementioned temple. Make sure you bring your camera for this part, as the views are beautiful! The next day we said our goodbyes to our tour guide and hopped on another plane to Heho. Our young tour guide during this section was incredible, he was so enthusiastic and helpful! Boating across Lake Inle was the highlight of the trip. This really was a unique experience, and seeing the temples, local trade and floating gardens was really interesting. To be honest, this brief review does not give justice to what an amazing experience Odyssey Travel and Tours provides and I definitely recommend booking with them. One thing to remember is to make sure you bring cash and particularly small change!…

Staff at the agency was friendly and helpful. My private tour guide was friendly and helpful too. He might have done his best but his english wasn't so good so I hardly understood what he said. I didn't get much information about Yangon like what I expected.

My wife and I decided to visit Myanmar in late 2019 as part of SE Asia journey. We knew little of the country and queried several local tour operators to leverage their expertise. We selected Odyssey based on their clarity of communication, quality of suggested itinerary and fair price. As we paid our deposit (for private tour) was a leap of faith knowing little about Myanmar or Odyssey Travel’s genuine capabilities… From the moment we landed in Mandalay our two-week Myanmar tour was amazing!!! Commend Odyssey team on guiding and executing an awesome tour. In such a short period of time we absorbed and experienced seeing many amazing places. We learned so much from the professional guides who provided genuine value and assistance, helping educate us on Myanmar’s many unique places and range of diverse tribes and people. Thank you again Zin Min for putting together such an excellent, well organized trip!! All of the guides you assigned were fantastic :-) Each had wonderful, warm personalities and really went out of their way to ensure our very busy itinerary flowed flawlessly and that we experienced the vibrant culture of Myanmar. We’d now consider each of the guides as good friends. In general, Myanmar was amazingly interesting, the highlight of our SE Asia tour!!…

Portugal/Spain trip./Douro Rive-Portugal and Madrid and Barcelona Spain As always, working with Sherry was a pleasure. She is knowledgeable and thorough. The hotels, beyond the AMA scheduled, were well chosen. The persons meeting us and transporting us and our luggage were promptly there to meet and help us. These details are what separates a smooth, pleasant trip from the stresses one can experience in strange lands. We have worked with Sherry before and have recommended her to many of our friends.…
