Excellent communication, extremely knowledgeable and impressive attention to detail
5/5

From the moment I first contacted Darren and Kate early in the planning, referred from a previous happy customer of theirs, the communication was detailed and helpful. I wasn’t sure where I wanted to visit exactly and Darren was extremely patient with his suggestions.
Our trip was fantastic from beginning to end, our family of four all had the most amazing experience due to Darren’s local knowledge and understanding of what would work for us. He really listened to what we were saying, and worked hard to put together a trip that was seamless and so well organised all we had to do was relax and enjoy.
Cannot speak highly enough of Compass Odyssey and would use them again without hesitation!

Incredible support and attention to detail!
5/5

I can only say that Darren & Kate (Compass Odyssey) arranged the experience of our lifetime! We had up to 23 people that were coming into different airports, different countries, different dates but also were interested in different safari regions and different experiences. Overall the logistics of covering 5 countries (including the Okavango Delta) in ~2 weeks was an incredible challenge - Darren & Kate were just unbelievable ... they knew exactly what we needed to do and helped us script out the detailed itinerary (believe me, we challenged them to fit a LOT in a little time). However, they built in the appropriate amount of time to relax and build additional memories. Every single one of their recommendations was spot on - we are already cherishing every single minute of the adventure! Most importantly, we are ready to go back!

This company is amazing,attention to detail,care,fantastic bespoke itinerary.
5/5

I will never be able to recommend this company enough, they did a phenomenal job sorting our bespoke itinerary …and were definitely 100% mindful and aware of every day that-we were away. By no means in a weird intrusive way, they just ensured that all the dots were connected.
Truly I've travelled heaps over many years, and am a few years older than when I started travelling, but these guys listen to what you want…for me trying to put together a great time pre/post a bike ride in Namibia.
Outstanding doesn't come close, all 4 of us walked away saying Compass created a stunning, oh so special experience.

Darren is a chram and knows what he's doing! I will more than likely use Comopass odyssey again!
5/5

What a wonderful experience it was using Compass Odyssey.. Darren knows his stuff and organized everything with perfection.. Our guide in Cape town "Glen" was delightful. All of the lodgings Darren booked for us were superb. (Victoria Falls, Chobe River, Botswana) And Cape Town! We pointed him in the direction we wanted to visit and he did it! Was a lovely lovely trip..

Perfect
5/5

Regarding to the initial planning of the safari trip, we were all very appreciative about Darren’s effort in assisting us in booking the safari, accommodations and transportation. Before the trip, the company sent us the pre-safari information which is very useful and thus we could know more about the culture and things to aware before arriving Africa. During the planning process, Darren listened to our opinions and gave us suitable recommendations. Also, Darren even assisted us the airport transportation that was not supposed be arranged by him. During the trip, everything was smooth. We particularly enjoyed the accommodations Compass Odyssey offered to us which were all very comfortable especially 528 Victoria Fall which was just like “home”. Though it was quite hot without air-conditioner in Camp Nkwazi. Also, we like the arrangement that we were the only one in the boat safari and safari drive during ur stay in Chobe River Lodge. During the trip, Ruth was good and always listened to our opinions and offered us suitable recommendations.
