Here’s what our guests said about
our past trips:
"Anna and her team in Italy did a fantastic job in making sure we had an amazing time visiting Puglia. There were so many “out of the box” experiences that made this trip unique & wonderful.
The group of women brought together by Anna made the trip fantastic! Thank you for a memorable trip!"
- MJ
"I can't say enough about Anna and Olegana Travel Boutique!!! What an awesome trip first off, and the ladies I met OMG!!!
She helped me plan an AMAZING and PERFECT itinerary.
This will not be my last trip with this Boutique."
- Lucia
"I went on the incredible Spain trip in the fall of 2023 and I was very impressed with the high quality of the tours, the guides and the accommodations.
Anna did a great job, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book another tour with her company."
- Lin
I hear it all the time - "I would love to come with you BUT..."
BUT I've never traveled alone!
This is a perfect option if you’re a solo traveler on a journey of self-discovery: you can be part of a larger group of women (usually 50+) that share your interests and have likely been in your shoes before, while going through a new stage of life like retirement, divorce or loss of a partner. Everyone is as excited to be on this trip as you are so you're not alone.
BUT I've never been to Europe!
That's ok - that's the beauty of travel and exploring new places! With our group, you don't have to worry about the logistics in an unfamiliar, new place. You're part of a small group that travels together with a professional, English-speaking guide and you get to know one another.
How amazing would you feel on the return flight home, knowing that you SEIZED the chance to have a once-in-a-lifetime, authentic European experience and met some new friends along the way?
Ready to explore Venice?
Yes! Let's make it happen.
Here’s how:
P.S.: Due to an overwhelming trip interest, we can only accommodate requests on a first come, first serve basis.
