Most of the people here use mustard oil as the cooking oil. Oriya cuisine owing to rich flavors and a plethora of local dishes is often referred to as “the Goa of Eastern India”. There is a lot of similarity between Oriya cuisine and Bengali cuisine. The main ingredients used in the preparation of food are papaya, plantains, turmeric, red chilies, and jackfruit. Most of Odisha dishes have a mix of five spices called Panchaw Phutana and the spices are aniseed, kalonji, cumin, fenugreek, and mustard.

Sumant Bansal

New delhi

Sumant's 4 days trip to Odisha

Overall trip was good. Everything is as planned as per the itinerary. Driver and cab is excellent. We didn't face any problems except one at the breakfast at Pride Ananya is not upto the mark and service is late and food is cold.

Sandesh Chiplunkar

Mumbai

Sandesh's 2 days trip to Odisha

The Hotel Vijoya International was good but the additional bed already booked was non standard and we actually did not used as it was falling. Food at Hotel was wonderful The disappointing part was on Cab inclusive package. If I had just booked hotel on MMT it would have cost me 4500 Max for one n

ight and 1 day konark at 2000 and other day Chilka at 2500 Max. So maximum cost would be 9000-12000 Max. With nothing special I feel the tour cost was overcharged

Poulomi Shachi

Bengaluru

Poulomi's 3 days trip to Odisha

It would be nice if the driver/guide could tell us about the places and its significance and history

Abhishek Yeole

Pune

Abhishek's 5 days trip to Odisha

It was my 3rd trip from TT. Arrangements made were good. The agent was pretty supportive to all the requests we made. He even helped us change the rooms which were not up to the mark. He did take good actions wherever needed immediately. Super responsive person! However, the experience with t

he driver appointed was a certain disappointment. The driver could not speak or understand Hindi properly. Though we requested a couple of times, the agent did not change the driver. It is but obvious that if the driver can't communicate with you, the experience only goes levels down. Language was anyways a problem but also he kept on chewing gutka (which is illegal in India) or paan masala all the time which is super unhealthy. Lots of mosquitoes inside the car.

Divya Eswar

Bengaluru

Divya's 5 days trip to Odisha

Hotel Bollywood 2.0 at puri was not up to the standard. Was uncomfortable with no water supply and hot water problems

Ankit Gupta

Kailasam Nagaraju

Mumbai

Kailasam's 6 days trip to Odisha

Me and my wife visited Odisha this week. Mr. Shibashish Das helped us with the arrangements. He was kind enough to consider our requests and was patient enough till we could finalise our dates. The hotels in Bhubaneswar and Puri were amazing. The accessibility, food and service were great. The compl

imentary breakfast spread at both hotels were amazing. Mandasaru was a close to nature experience. The team of ladies at the camp took good care of us. Hospitality of the staff at all the places we stayed was very nice. Our drivers Mr. Suresh and Mr. Manoj were good too and took us sightseeing. We got a very good darshan of Lord Jagannath thanks to the head priest Sagar ji. Overall a good and memorable experience. Will surely recommend the services of Mr. Shibashish and his team. Jai Jagannath!!
