What travelers are saying

"The agents are not helpful and just rush to make the reservations so they get the commission. I was never told that I could make my own hotel reservations for half the price. When I called the reservations to see how much the cost of the hotel they reserved was, I was told they did not know. I called again and was transferred to another agent who told me the price. I wanted to make the change, but they would not give me credit. They would only give me a voucher for future use. I don't want a voucher because I do not want to travel by Amtrak anymnnore."

"As a retired Environmental Studies Professor, our tour guide Dr. Don Snow is widely well read and has thorough knowledge of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. It was obvious from the very beginning that his teacher instinct wishing to impart his vast knowledge with us runs deep in his blood. Having lived in MT for many years, Don is intimate with local lores and history, as well as its flora and fauna. Five of us tested positive for Covid during our tour. Nick, our tour manager and the "fixer" of all things and ASHT Company did a phenomenal job of guiding us through the difficult situation."

What travelers are saying

"My wife and I were on the Smithsonian Journeys Splendors of Australia and New Zealand between April 13 and May 2, 2018. Smithsonian is rated by this site as Luxury travel. However, Smithsonian "farms out" the logistics for their trip to Odysseys Unlimited. Odysseys booked within country air travel with the lowest cost air carriers. Flights were cancelled from Ayers Rock to Sydney and from Queenstown New Zealand to Rotorua. Another flight was significantly delayed so that we did not arrive at our Christchurch destination until 2:00 am, making for a really tired next day. Odysseys Unlimited compensated us $400 per person for missing a day in Sydney and paid for an excursion in Auckland for missing Rotorua. This was wholly inadequate, given that these were highlights of the trip. In addition, our tour guide was rude to several people on the trip. If Smithsonian Journeys is truly a luxury travel outfit, as we had believed, then they would not be farming out travel logistics to such a chinch company as Odysseys Unlimited. We will think twice about traveling with Smithsonian again, and so should others."

"The Perfect Agency for USA tours. This holiday was to be the gift to both my wife and i that we promised ourslves upon retirement and we could not have picked a better agency to arrange it. Touring New England in the fall staying at clapboard B&Bs', perfect. Thanks to our advisor Monica and the team for making our dream into a reality. Their attention to detail was amazing. They know their business alright."

"My trip was the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta, Oct 2023. The balloon fiesta was fabulous. Mike the driver was awesome. Our tour manager Jolie started out great, however, as the days passed she encourage travelers to go off on their own which changed the touring times for everyone else. The last day was a disaster, one lady was left behind because Jolie didn't do a head count. More stops were added so other people could leave the tour and go places on their own. Twice in the afternoon Jolie lost track of how many people were on the bus, she told customers to look around and report if someone was missing. She laughed on the bus intercom about how she didn't know how many people should be on the bus. A Mayflower rep stated that she was a favorite manager so nothing would be done. Most of these tours are attended by seniors, we need responsable employees to keep track of who is on the bus and who is not. She encouraged travelers to leave the tour and lost the ability to keep track of customers. Reckless..."

Might be nice for older folk, but if you are in your 20s-30s and hoping for adventure, this isn’t it.
