Odyssey New Zealand Named In World’s Top 3 Food & Beverage Tourism Operations.
Punching well above their weight, local small business Odyssey New Zealand has received international acclaim being named Runner Up for the world’s best tour operation in the first ever Global Food & Beverage Tourism Awards.
