Private Travel Planning.
In addition to our hosted group tours, we design custom private trips to select destinations we know and trust—crafted around your dates, interests, and travel style.
Looking for Hosted Group Tours?
VIVE also leads luxury, small-group trips to our signature destinations throughout the year. If you prefer to travel with a group and trip hosts, explore our upcoming trips on the Group Tours page.
Who We Plan Travel For
We design private journeys for solo travelers, couples, families, and private groups—whether you're celebrating something special or finally checking a dream destination off your list.
The VIVE Difference

Handpicked luxury hotels that match your vibe—not random online listings
VIP arrival experience — airport meet-and-greet + private transfers
Trusted on-the-ground partners we personally know and work with
