Mario
I have a Masters in Industrial Engineering but what I am truly passionate about is traveling. Creating tailor made itineraries for Croatia and the Balkans is what I love doing. Before that, I’ve been working as a boat skipper and a private driver / tour guide for 5 years - so you know you're in best hands, with someone who knows the products in and out.
My travel goal: find the perfect balance between your wishes and the offers here in the Balkans. Let me make your perfect trip come true.
Violaine
I’m Violaine, and I grew up in France, where I studied tourism and developed a deep curiosity for cultures and people. Travel has always been part of my life, not just as a way to see places, but as a way to connect.
Today I'm designing tailor-made journeys across the Balkans, including Albania, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Romania, and Bulgaria. I’m especially passionate about this region for its warmth, cultural diversity, and the feeling of discovering places still untouched by mass tourism.
My goal is to create trips that feel authentic, human, and meaningful, rooted in local encounters and a true sense of place.

6-day solo trip to Portugal
“It was great to have the whole trip planned for me as I'd never been to Portugal before. All I had to do was explain what I was looking to get from the 5 days and a rough idea of the areas I wanted to see. Goncales was very detailed and booked me on appropriate tours.”

10-day family trip to Greece
“From my first conversation with Effie, to my last (of many whats app texts with Maria, Christos and Mairi). I can not say enough about Rough Guides, the tours, drivers, plans etc. We can not recommend this company enough, and will use again any time we travel internationally! It was the best decision of our trip!”
