Our story
THE STORY BEHIND
VIVE Travel is a French DMC — destination management company — crafting luxury travel and events across France.
Born from a profound belief that true luxury lies in the authenticity of each moment, VIVE redefines experiences as something vibrant, emotional, and deeply personal.
Rooted in our founder's Latin American heritage, VIVE is more than a name. It's a bold statement. A rallying cry. An invitation to live fully and freely.
Born from two worlds
VIVE was founded by Francisco Betancourt, whose journey from business law in Latin America led him to a deeper calling: creating exceptional experiences and world-class hospitality in France.
Over the past decade, Francisco has worked with discerning clients from Europe, the Americas, and major travel industry leaders, designing exclusive events and deeply personalized journeys through France.
His secret? Understanding that true luxury lies in connection. In moments of awe, in human warmth, in the unexpected encounters that transform a beautiful trip into an unforgettable story.
