Perspectives on Small Group Travel
Fall 2024

Welcome to the Fall 2024 edition of News & Views, where we update you about goings-on here at Odysseys Unlimited, advise you about developments in the world of travel, and hope to inspire you with ideas for your own adventures.

We’re delighted to introduce you to Odysseys guests Steve and Sally Pearson, who documented their Canadian Rockies Explorer tour on their blog, Steve and Sally’s Travels, which we share with you here.

On the Odysseys front, our Worldwide Services team has been on the road meeting with some of our tour directors as they prepare for upcoming travel seasons – and we have the photos to prove it! Click on the article below; you might spot your favorite TD.

And given the whirlwind nature of their travels, no doubt the Worldwide team used some of our tips to beat jet lag, which we hope you’ll find helpful, as well.

Of course, getting a good night’s sleep once you arrive at your destination is one way to put jet lag in the rear view, but a comfortable bed isn’t all that you’ll find at some of the unique small group lodgings that we use on Odysseys tours, as you can read about in 10 Unique Accommodations Perfect for Small Group Travel. Rainforest gardens, cave dwellings, and private bungalows count as just a few of the highlights.

Wishing you safe and happy travels!

Sincerely,

Signature
