BEHIND OLEA VOYAGES
BORN FROM A LOVE OF TRAVEL
At Olea Voyages, we believe travel is not about places, but about moments, rare, meaningful and deeply personal. As your personal French travel designers, our passion lies in curating bespoke journeys that transcend the ordinary, transforming travel into unforgettable experiences filled with authenticity, exclusivity and refined charm.
OUR STORY
Founded by Nicola and Alain, two avid travelers deeply rooted on the picturesque French Riviera, Olea Voyages was born from a shared passion for exploration and a profound desire to share the beauty and authenticity of our country with discerning travelers from around the globe.
Having extensively traveled and lived in diverse regions across France, from Paris to the French Riviera, we recognized a unique opportunity to showcase the entire country’s rich heritage, varied landscapes, and distinctive charm through meticulously crafted experiences. Our extensive network of local partners throughout France enables us to offer unparalleled access to hidden gems, exclusive venues, and authentic encounters that remain inaccessible to typical tourists.
We strive to transform every journey into a unique narrative, carefully tailored to match the individual tastes and preferences of each traveler. Whether it’s a private tour of historic vineyards, intimate cooking sessions with renowned chefs, or exclusive insights into the region’s artistic heritage, every experience curated by Olea Voyages is a promise of rare, memorable, and deeply personal moments.
Let us guide you into a world where travel becomes an art, and each journey, an unforgettable masterpiece.

WHY OLEA VOYAGES ?
Olea, from the Latin for olive tree, is a promise. An invitation to travel differently.
The olive tree evokes a timeless symbol, rooted in sun-drenched lands: strong, noble, enduring. It embodies the Mediterranean art of living, warmth, sharing and simple beauty. A symbol of peace, wisdom and sustainability, the olive tree reflects the values we cultivate in every journey we design.
For the English-speaking traveler, the word voyage carries a meaning far beyond simple movement. It suggests a rare, almost mythical adventure, one that weaves together exploration, refinement, and personal transformation. A legacy of great sea crossings and ancient odysseys, the voyage is seen as both a sensory and inner quest, a moment suspended in time.
At Olea Voyages, we embrace this inspiring vision: each itinerary is conceived as an experience, a true encounter, with a place, a culture, and an emotion.
