About Us

Viva team

A small family business still working hard. We started 20 years ago managing a small resort and with passion we created a company able to offer you the best holiday. We offer you a complete service from the beginning of your first request, during your stay and up to departure, giving away our precious travelling tips. We have selected the best resorts on Lake Garda and Lake Iseo, and through the years we’ve created long lasting partnerships with some of the best tour operators in Europe. Even though you’ll book directly with us or choosing one of our partners we will be at your complete disposal any time.

Probably you’ve heard about us through a friend, because our clients are our best PR’s. As probably you will become a part of the "Viva" family too, it’s our pleasure to introduce you to our staff... looking forward to meeting you personally this summer.
