Client OuYang has used Tours4fun's custom travel service three times: first for a hard-to-book "planet cabin" in Alaska, then for trips to Japan and Eastern Europe. In an interview with CEO Allen, she described the support that earned her trust and also shared candid feedback about an Osaka hotel and the company's app.
Customized Vacation Story Across 3 Trips | Tours4fun Customer Story
An Alaska Cabin Stay
OuYang first contacted the company because she could not book the Alaska cabin herself. Her planner offered choices at different price levels and trip lengths, helping her compare value. She said quality mattered more to her than finding the lowest price, and that the rare stay required planning.
The cabin became the trip's highlight, with good food and a memorable aurora viewing. OuYang recalled seeing the northern lights in the middle of the night.
"The planet cabin was the highlight for us. We saw the aurora in the middle of the night. It was amazing." - OuYang, a custom travel client

A Trusted Advisor Across Japan and Eastern Europe
After Alaska, OuYang began consulting the company before other international trips. In Japan, the team arranged a north-to-south itinerary from Tokyo for OuYang, her husband and two children, with a private car and driver-guide. During the hot summer, the driver stayed nearby while they visited sights and returned when called.
Over Christmas, her family of five traveled through four Eastern European countries, starting in Prague and ending in Budapest. When her younger son developed a fever in Budapest, their guide bought medicine and brought it to the family, easing the language barrier. OuYang described him as one of the most professional guides she had met.

Honest Feedback About App and Hotel Details
OuYang also raised shortcomings. She found working with a custom trip planner more personal than using the app and questioned whether its trip information was clear. Allen acknowledged that the website offered more detail than the app.
She was especially unhappy with an Osaka hotel whose location and facilities did not match her expectations. The hotel could not be changed, and the only remedy offered was a small price reduction. Allen acknowledged that the team lacked sufficient knowledge of Osaka and had not independently verified the local operator's hotel recommendation. He called it a lesson and stressed the need for careful checks of lodging, transportation, and local guides.

A Recommendation with a Clear Lesson
Despite the hotel issue, OuYang said she recommends the custom travel service, especially for trips abroad. Her three trips reflect the support she valued and a hotel-checking gap the company acknowledged.
