Why Oh My Buddha?

Because a trip with Oh My Buddha is an experience like no other. And that's because OMB is born of out experience. We at OMB are united in our passion for traveling. Tour guides Andrew Anderson, Matt Kelly and Catlin Ferris bring a wealth of travel experience and a nose for adventure. Collectively they've sojourned almost every continent (we don't really consider Antarctica to be a continent, seeing as you can recreate the environment with an ice cube tray and a freezer). They've journeyed enough to circle the globe over ten times. And throughout their memorable travels across innumerable locations they all singled out one place in particular that stood above all the rest: Southeast Asia.

It's a location often overlooked by the average traveller. On their first visit to this concealed land Andrew, Catlin and Matt had planned a brief stay in Thailand, no more than a couple of weeks, with maybe a chance to explore the surrounding area. What they uncovered was a hidden oasis, brimming with fascinating history, exciting culture, unparalleled landscape, incredible people, and all for a cost that was a fraction for what they usually payed to live the journeyman's life.

They enjoyed the experience so much they extended their stay... once, twice, as long as they could. They gained a knowledge of the local customs, language, popular tourist sites and hidden gems. As the weeks turned into months (and for Matt, almost an entire year) they had fallen in love with the land and the people. So upon returning home they eagerly sought a way they could go back and share this jungle utopia with others. And so Oh My Buddha was born.

What you receive when you book a trip with Oh My Buddha is a life-defining experience. And it all starts with the intimate knowledge about Southeast Asia that Andrew, Catlin and Matt have acquired and wish to reveal to you. Forget what you think you know about travel companies. OMB aren't just tour guides, they're adventure guides. This isn't just a job, this is their passion. And you aren't just a customer or passenger, you are a participant and the creator of an epic journey that you wouldn't dare to forget.

What sets us apart from other travel companies is the dedication and perseverance to ensure your trip is even better than you anticipate. The guides are there for anything you may need from the moment you meet at the airport to the day you delete them off Facebook years down the road. Your travel group is small enough that you'll know everyone's name before you exit the plane, but large enough that you're sure to make one or two or ten lifelong friends with whom you'll share unbelievable stories, unspoken memories and perhaps a secret or two.

The value you receive when traveling with OMB is unsurpassed. Compare the cost of a trip with OMB to any other tourist destination and you'll be amazed at the difference. Travel and accommodation are completely covered by OMB and your dollar is stretched further with a high exchange rate and extremely low prices comparable to North America or popular travel destinations such as Europe, Australia, or the Caribbean. Who says you have to spend big to have a good time? Not us.

OMB is there to ensure you have the trip of your lifetime. To push you out of your comfort zone and discover a new world you never knew existed. And during this discovery you're sure to find out a little something new about yourself as well. Whether your isolated among tranquil waterfalls or fully immersed within the collective heartbeat of 30,000 partiers packed on a beach, OMB is there to show you the way and allow your wildest fantasies to take flight.

So experience the same same but different vacation destination that only Oh My Buddha can provide. This isn't laying poolside at a five-star luxury resort. This is better.
