I'm Violaine, your local expert for Bulgaria
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.

“The Insight Guides is an excellent resource for trip planning! We used them to refer us to an agency in Vietnam that helped us with logistics through Vietnam and Cambodia. As that was a successful endeavor, we again reached out to Insight Guides to help us plan our trip to Balkans countries, and the on-the-ground logistics were handled expertly. We could not rate Insight Guides more highly.”
