The 12-day Scotland tour was enchanting! We loved every minute, morsel, tale, and especially the music.

We have been on the Greece and Portugal tours, and just booked Iceland. Excellent company in every way!

I would definitely do another Odysseys tour – great company, great value.

We continue to be amazed at the value and quality of these trips.

Love your company and feel like we get excellent value.
