Handcrafted Adventures Since 1998

From the snowy peaks of Kilimanjaro to the star-draped Namib desert, Africa is the wildest continent on the planet. We could be biased, as we were originally Africa experts: but there is no holiday quite like an African safari, which is why us and our clients return year after year.

If you’re after chaotic city colour, meditative beach days or forest adventures, Asia has the answer. Get lost in the dazzling mayhem of Tokyo one week, and the next enjoy the company of an orangutan in the heart of a jungle. Where Africa has Cape Town for its cosmopolitan and foodie fix, Asia has a myriad of thrilling cities, all a stone’s throw away from the highest mountains, greenest forests and bluest seas.

South America is so much more than steak and Machu Picchu. Its mountains are vast, deserts otherworldly and cities buzzing with atmosphere. If you’re after an into-the-wild Patagonia trekking adventure, a glimpse into evolutionary history in the Galapagos, or tango dancing in Buenos Aires, we’ve got some ideas…

When we say tailor-made, we mean tailor-made. If adventure is your bag, then the icy edge of the world should be your next destination. This vast white expanse with towering glaciers, lone polar bears and surprising pockets of life is a place that will never leave you.

Though there are thousands of beautiful beaches in the world, it takes a special combination of soft white powdery sand and swoon-worthy yet authentic accommodation to make it onto the Odyssey Travels shortlist. From the Indian Ocean to the Pacific and even the Caribbean, to private islands and secluded bays on the mainland – we have stayed at them all.
