History
Odyssey International Limited, incorporated in 1979, is an adventure travel company based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Its original mission was to administer an attempt to beat the existing 103-day record for World Circumnavigation by Car, which it did in 74 days.
Since then, Odyssey has produced unique motoring activities travelling through more than 75 countries including “Around the Bloc in a Week” celebrating the fall of the Berlin Wall, smuggling a truckload of children’s books to Moscow schools, putting a car on top of Toronto’s CN Tower and negotiating the perimeter of Iceland during its dark, inhospitable winter.
Odyssey International has a quarter-century relationship with the Road and a history of innovative events ranging from establishing solo long-distance world driving records to producing distinct and memorable programs for groups of consumers as well as for automotive journalists.
