Oddessemania is a travel tech startup that is trying to change the way people experience travel. It is promoting guide aided travel for travelers to have an immersive local experience. Oddessemania is the first platform to facilitate pre-travel guide booking. Trained and experienced guides are onboarded to the platform based on their specialty for travelers to select them based on the itinerary and subject to availability. The guides are specifically selected from the local community, trained and onboarded. Oddessemania achieves multiple objectives by facilitating guide booking. 1. The travelers get a local expert to guide them during the travel who ensures that they get an immersive experience. 2. The local guides also ensure safety of the travelers. It is particularly important for solo travelers or small groups. 3. Engaging the local guide community contributes positively to uplift the local economy.
