Odi is probably the best local photography guide you can find in Bali. He knows the island inside out, knows everyone, and always seems to know exactly where to go and when to be there. But what really makes the difference is the person he is: incredibly friendly, funny, and great to spend time with. With Odi, the hours just fly by. I always look forward to coming back to Bali, and honestly, seeing him again is one of the reasons why.

Odi Ode levert puur vakmanschap. Zijn oog voor detail, unieke composities en de manier waarop hij met het vroege ochtendlicht speelt, is werkelijk uniek. Naast zijn uitzonderlijke talent als fotograaf is hij een ontzettend vriendelijke en professionele gids die precies weet hoe hij de essentie van Bali moet overbrengen. Een absolute 5-sterrenervaring!

Odi knows this island deeply, far beyond what you find on travel blogs or typical tour maps. With him, you leave the crowds behind and step into the quiet, authentic heart of Bali. We found ourselves exploring misty mountain corners without tourists, hidden waterfalls, and untouched coastal landscapes at the softest morning light. What touched me most was being welcomed into quiet, sacred village ceremonies that outsiders rarely get to witness, moments full of grace, incense, and genuine tradition. Our "office" is always a quiet nature spot with coffee and fried bananas in paradise mountains or small villages. As a photographer himself, Odi has an intuitive feel for light and composition, always knowing the right angle and the exact moment when the magic happens. On the road, he is a dream to work with. He is always early, completely reliable, and greets every dawn with that gentle, sincere Balinese smile that instantly puts your soul at ease. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and his calm, positive presence turns even the longest travel days into a joy. Above all else, it is his honesty and integrity that make him truly exceptional. My groupa always forgets wallets, cameras and lenses besides their hearts in Bali - and Odi makes sure nothing kept in Bali except of your heart and soul. Well once I even forgot 8 grand cash in my sock and he found it and returned. So ready to say I trust Odi everything from my mind down to my socks! Odi may have started as a local guide and fellow photographer, but he quickly became a trusted brother and a lifelong friend. If you want to experience the true soul of Bali with someone who will look after you like family, go with Odi. You are in the very best hands.
