Albania, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, but also Romania and Bulgaria: the Breathe in Travel network is gradually expanding across a large portion of the Balkans.

This growth rests on a philosophy the company has upheld since its beginnings: to be locally present to better know, understand and showcase the destinations.


A rapidly growing activity

These past years have seen a notable acceleration in the development of Breathe in Travel, with a significant rise in the number of travelers welcomed across its entire network.

This progression notably reflects the growing trust placed in Breathe in Travel by its partners and confirms the rising interest of European travelers in the Balkans.

Individual travelers, couples, families, groups, escorted tours or MICE projects: Breathe in Travel develops different segments while maintaining a strong emphasis on tailor-made journeys and authentic experiences.

This growth is also accompanied by the development of new partnerships with travel agencies and tourism players across several European markets.


A network taking shape across the Balkans

Breathe in Travel’s growth is primarily rooted in the field.

The company is progressively building a network of local teams, offices, and partners to directly manage operations in the various destinations it offers.

This presence enables Breathe in Travel to work closely with hoteliers, guides, drivers, producers, restaurateurs and local activity providers.

It also allows maintaining true control over the trips proposed: partner selection, itinerary creation, quality control of services, and traveler assistance during their stay.

The aim is not merely to add new destinations to a catalog, but to progressively build a genuine receptive network across the Balkans.

Violaine Fejoz, the Balkan passion in daily life

This adventure is also carried by the women and men who make up Breathe in Travel.

Among them, Violaine Fejoz, passionate about the Balkans and deeply committed to the company’s philosophy.

Through her travels and on-the-ground experience, Violaine has developed an in-depth knowledge of the region’s destinations. What she particularly cherishes about the Balkans is their incredible diversity: in a few hours, shifting from a bustling capital to a mountain village, discovering a small family-run operation, sailing along the Adriatic coast, or sharing a traditional meal with locals.

At Breathe in Travel, she participates in this drive to offer trips that go beyond the major tourist sites.

Her approach perfectly reflects the company’s DNA: know the terrain, prioritize encounters, and offer a more human way of discovering destinations.


This strong growth represents, above all, a new milestone for Breathe in Travel.

The company aims to continue its development, strengthen its local teams, expand its network of partners, and support more agencies and tour operators wishing to program the Balkans.

New destinations are gradually complementing Breathe in Travel’s historic markets, enabling the company to offer an ever wider coverage of the region.

Yet despite this growth, the philosophy remains the same: to grow without losing proximity to the field, local expertise, and the human dimension that define Breathe in Travel’s identity.

With activity continuing to rise and a presence that keeps expanding, Breathe in Travel today holds an increasingly prominent place among inbound tourism operators in the Balkans.

And for the team, the adventure has only just begun.
