Athina Luxury Suites

Christmas 2024 - a holiday of a lifetime! Riccardo helped with a very last minute trip to Kenya for safari and relaxation by the Indian Ocean. Although we are experienced travellers, this was our first visit to Africa and we wanted something special. I cannot speak highly enough of Riccardo’s service, not only in what he does, but also how he does it. Constantly attentive, he listened to all of our ideas, followed up on places we had found ourselves (fortunately, all were booked!) and then suggested infinitely better alternatives to construct a luxurious, seamless, and hassle-free experience. The combination of Riccardo’s experience, the extent of his network, and a genuine care about making our trip unique is priceless. Insights for how long to stay on safari or whether to leave day-to-day activities by the sea as open-ended until arrival were spot on. At each leg from Nairobi-Masai Mara-Watamu, whether from airport greeters, drivers, hotel receptionists, and service operators we genuinely felt the Voyemo magic touch, friendly and caring. Thanks for a trip in a million!

Thank you Riccardo for the incredible Support! We've had one of the best times of our Lives!! Planning a Honeymoon/10th Anniversary is definitely not the easiest ?! We were so excited and keen to get it just right. After extensive research, we came across Voyemo, and decided to give them a go... Riccardo and his team were so knowledgeable and resourceful about the best places to visit. You gave us honest opinions about destinations and even reminded us Hurricane Seasons at certain destinations which could have been a major barrier. You put so much passion in the service you offer to clients and you make each journey person-centered! You were so patient and cooperative even when we got confused and came up with all sorts of ideas ?. We finally went with Singapore and the Maldives! Best decision ever!!!!! Riccardo made sure our transports were prompt to avoid any delays or having to wait at airports. Riccardo was kind enough to offer us list of places to visit and best rooftop bars in Singapore! In short, We've made Singapore a second home in the near future, that's how much we Love SG! The Resort in the Maldives Riccardo advised us to choose was Bliss! We made family with everyone on the Island and had the best Holiday by Far!!! Thank you Riccardo for going above and beyond to ensure we had the perfect Anniversary Holiday! Looking forward to you planning so many other getaways in the years ahead.. Love from Emmanuel and Abi

I was really happy with (Voyemo) Riccardo’s organization of my Italy trip especially when I contacted them at a short notice. Always prompt responses. Congenial communication, great hotel selection and EXCELLENT tour guides. He listened to my hopes after our first consultation and it was all met, no hassle or confusion. Would definitely recommend their service.

The Voyemo Team made us an unforgettable holiday experience in Crete. It was a pleasure talking to theses guys and plan things around our long weekend trip. The place they offered was far beyond expectations and we loved the local vinery in that small village. Keep on going guys and talk to you soon for our next journey around September!!

Voyemo curated a phenomenal journey for us through Vietnam and Cambodia. From start to finish, every detail was flawlessly executed, making for an unforgettable experience. The handpicked five-star boutique hotels were exquisite—each offering not just luxury and comfort but also a unique charm that reflected the culture of the region. Our private tours were equally impressive, with friendly, knowledgeable guides who provided fascinating insights, enriching every destination with their expertise. A special shout-out to Riccardo, who was an absolute pleasure to work with. His dedication to crafting a truly bespoke experience was evident in every aspect of our trip. If you’re looking for a luxury travel experience that is both personalized and stress-free, we highly recommend Voyemo. They exceeded our expectations in every way!

An Amazing Experience All Around Riccardo and Voyemo helped us plan our trip to Sicily and Lisbon. The trip was incredible, but the whole experience was more than we could have ever expected. First, even as we were just planning our trip, Riccardo put together possible trip ideas for us based on our budget. After we picked the location, he made recommendations for excursions to enhance our trip. He met with us multiple times in the process and was always attentive and responsive. When an issue came up with one of our excursions, he contacted us quickly with two options to help us replace it quickly and seamlessly. Even after we took off, Ricardo stayed in contact regularly to make sure everything was going as planned. When we had problems with the airline (unrelated to anything Voyemo was responsible for) Riccardo was messaging us in real-time, to make sure we okay and coordinating with our accommodations and transports. Every partner and connection they had went above and beyond anything we could have possibly hoped for. Each hotel/inn/resort took amazing care of us, but it was more than that. His contacts were genuinely lovely people, and they all were determined to ensure we had an amazing vacation. I cannot recommend Voyemo highly enough. They are skilled, generous, and most importantly kind. We had an experience we will never forget.

欧州は6回目ですが、初めてのイタリア旅行でしたし、イタリアは特にかなり見どころ満載でガイドブックだけでは判らない事が多かったので、思い切ってネットで見つけたリカルドさんにお願いしてみました。 見知らぬ人でしたし最初は少々不安でしたが、やり取りしているうちに人柄が伝わって安心してお任せ出来ました。 ベニス、ベローナ、フィレンツェそしてローマでの2週間滞在のホテル、電車での移動、車の送迎、ツアーガイド、オプショナルツアー、PCR検査の予約まで、航空券以外は全て手配していただきました。 特にホテルは立地の利便性、サービスなどは実際その場に行ってみないと判りませんし、リカルドさんのお勧めは全て大正解でした。 その他にもレストランのお勧めもして頂き、フィレンツェ滞在中は郊外のワインテイスティングも体験しました。 それとベニスとベローナでは、それぞれ日本滞在経験のあるイタリア人の方々による日本語でのツアーガイドも手配していただき、素晴らしい体験でした。 リカルドさんはヨーロッパ全体に広い知識と経験をもってらっしゃいますので、次回はギリシャ、もしくはポルトガル旅行をまたお任せする予定にしています。

We recently returned from a 10-day bespoke holiday in South Africa arranged by Riccardo from Voyemo to celebrate a big birthday, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime. From start to finish, the experience was flawless, with every detail perfectly tailored to our needs and preferences. Our journey began in Cape Town, where we stayed at a stunning hotel with breathtaking views of the Twelve Apostles and the ocean. Riccardo ensured we experienced the best of this incredible city, from scenic drives along Chapman’s Peak to exploring hidden gems and iconic landmarks. From there, we ventured to Franschhoek, staying in a boutique hotel nestled among rolling vineyards. The food and wine were absolutely divine, and every meal felt like a gourmet celebration. The highlight of the trip was our stay at Sanbona Game Reserve, where we enjoyed a luxury safari experience that we will never forget. The lodge was exquisite, and the staff made us feel completely at home. The game drives were a thrilling adventure, and we were fortunate to see a wide variety of animals in their natural habitat. Our ranger was incredibly knowledgeable, making every drive an educational and exciting experience. Our final destination was Knysna, along the famous Garden Route. Our hotel offered stunning ocean views, and the balance of relaxation and adventure was perfect. Riccardo arranged activities that allowed us to soak up the area’s natural beauty, from peaceful boat rides to exploring the nearby forests and beaches. Throughout the holiday, the service was consistently warm, friendly, and attentive. Every hotel was a masterpiece, each offering a unique combination of luxury, comfort, and spectacular surroundings. Riccardo’s attention to detail and dedication to creating a personalized itinerary ensured that the entire experience was seamless and stress-free. This celebration was everything we dreamed of and more, leaving us with incredible memories to cherish for a lifetime. If you’re planning a special occasion or simply want a tailor-made travel experience, we cannot recommend Voyemo enough. His expertise and personal touch made South Africa the perfect destination, and we are so grateful for his outstanding planning and care. Thank you, Riccardo and Voyemo!

I contacted Voyemo to design a small getaway I wanted in October. In the midst of Covid outbreak, they found the perfect solution close to my home, in an amazing hotel, with top services (massage, personal trainer spa) at a super good price. They were caring all throughout the process and answered every question I had with reactivity. I cannot recommend enough. I even already booked my next trip with them for next year.

What an amazing human Riccardo is. From start to finish I can’t say enough good things about my experience working with Riccardo. He curated and created the most amazing and luxurious Peru trip…I couldn’t have even dreamed of what Riccardo put together. Here’s what made this top notch and above the rest. Riccardo asked what’s important to ME. Loved this. Everyone I have looked at had something very cookie cutter like for an itinerary. When Riccardo asked me what’s important to me, I knew this was a service custom tailored to what I wanted. Easy answer. Food and cultural immersion I said. That’s exactly what I got. Top quality world famous restaurants and depth in culture. The guides Riccardo put me in touch with were beyond top notch. Clearly, Riccardo filters in and out the right type of people to link up with his clients. I loved everything about what we did. Another thing which was an amazing touch was the notes that Riccardo left in my hotel rooms. Hand written. That extra touch goes a loooong way. I cannot say enough good things here. Another thing I loved was that Riccardo didn’t present me with a million options. He kept to my ask of what I wanted and had 2 solid options in itineraries to choose from. From there, we customized and made it our own. Ultra luxury. Best lodging and experiences. Loooooves every minute of this trip. Riccardo, I will be back. Thank you for what you do, how you do it, and the attitude you have when you set up and curate these experiences. Cannot thank you enough

We had an experience of a lifetime. Ricardo looked after every detail leaving us to enjoy a wonderful time. We look forward to using Voyemo on our future trips to Europe. Also our photographer, Christian, is a must.

Voyemo and Riccardo created a beautiful itinerary for us that included our dog to Italy. They nailed all the details for it to be pet friendly! We enjoyed it very much! It was all very amazing! Thank you Voyemo and Riccardo!

Riccardo not only planned but he made sure to organize the best honeymoon experience that my husband and I could have ever dreamt about it. From beginning till the end our experience with Voyemo was the finest someone can expect. It started with the advice of which destination to choose, and it went all the way until we found ourselves being spoiled in an amazing hotel at a secluded island in the Seychelles. Riccardo was also very attentive, both before and during our travels. He made sure to share detailed information about our travel schedule a few days before, surprised us daily with personalized welcome cards and complimentary amenities in our room and finally followed up on our experience after we were back home. My husband and I use to say that we had some angels to organize our wedding season, a wedding planner to organize our big day in Brazil and Riccardo, our “honeymoon planner”, to organize the best travel of our lives so far. And I say “so far” because we are already looking forward to planning with Riccardo our next big travel. I could not recommend more Voyemo to turn your travel dreams into reality.

I cannot say enough good things about our experience working with Riccardo at Voyemo. He planned a flawlessly executed 15 day trip to Japan for my wife and me. We had some specific elements for the trip that he tended to perfectly. No detail was overlooked...the guides, the accomodations, the stops, tours and events were all perfect. We will remember this trip for a long time, and would not hesitate to use Riccardo again.

Our honeymoon trip to Italy, from 20 September to 4 October, was our first trip ever, and Riccardo and his amazing team at Voyemo made it truly unforgettable. From the moment we landed in Rome, to the scenic countryside of Tuscany, the artistic charm of Florence, the romantic canals of Venice, the historic beauty of Verona, and the stylish allure of Milan, every stop was meticulously planned and perfectly executed. Riccardo followed up on every detail, ensuring that our experience was flawless from start to finish. The accommodations were luxurious, the experiences were thoughtfully curated, and the seamless transitions between each destination made us feel like we were traveling with a close friend who knew exactly what we needed. Each city and region held its own magic, and thanks to Voyemo, we were able to explore the best of Italy in a way that felt personal and unforgettable. For our first-ever trip, this was beyond anything we could have dreamed of, and we cannot thank Riccardo enough for making it so special. If you’re looking for a travel company that truly cares about crafting one-of-a-kind experiences, we wholeheartedly recommend Voyemo.

Our honeymoon was an absolute dream, and all thanks to Voyemo! From start to finish, the entire process was seamless. Dr. Riccardo was incredibly thoughtful and helped us plan the perfect LGBT-friendly adventure. We were truly spoilt along the way, staying in the most luxurious locations with exceptional service. The hotels and resorts were all carefully chosen to offer a balance of comfort and authenticity, making every stop an unforgettable experience. Babylonstoren, a stunning vineyard estate, was a standout, with its beautiful gardens, rich history, and exceptional farm-to-table dining experience. We felt utterly pampered at every moment. The safaris at Sanbona and Simbavati Waterside exceeded all expectations. Sanbona's open plains provided an incredible opportunity to witness wildlife, while Simbavati offered a more intimate, up-close experience watching elephants and lions roam. Ending the trip by the sea in Mozambique, surrounded by incredible wildlife and scenery, was the perfect way to bring the trip to a close before returning home. Everywhere we went, the level of care and attention to detail was unmatched. Throughout the entire journey, the process was friendly, personal, and stress-free, which made it all the more special. We could not have asked for a better travel partner than Voyemo for our honeymoon, and we’ll be recommending them to friends for years to come!

I was looking to go away for a week to for some much needed restbite. I came across Riccardo's website. I gave him a call and he offered several suggestions that may be suitable. He was travelling during these times but this didn’t stop him from getting back to me and emailing me the relevant details when he was able too. I chose the island of Ios in Greece and had a wonderful time. They staff were very friendly and helpful. It was a lovely hotel and resort. Riccardo arranged my ferry and made sure I had all the right details and was at the end of the phone if I got stuck. I did need to message him a couple of time whilst I was there with some queries and he always got back to me quickly and efficiently. Riccardo is friendly and helpful and the organisational skills of his company have been very helpful and a blessing especially during COVID new rules and regs. I would recommend using Riccardo if you just want to go somewhere and leave the details up to him.

Riccardo planned an amazing 10 day vacation for me in Greece. The hotels were exquisite, the tour guides amazing, and the overall experience unforgettable. I did not have to worry about a thing aside from disconnecting from work and relaxing. In addition, Riccardo is a genuinely wonderful human being, who is passionate about what he does and is highly knowledgeable. I am definitely going to use his services again and for all my travel needs in the future. Many many thanks again Riccardo for making this vacation happen.

We, two friends in need of some time off and relaxation stumbled across Voyemo in our search for a wellness/fitness holiday. We had both extensively looked for days and hours, trying to find a retreat early June, when Europe was only just slowly opening up. We provided Voyemo with our wishlisht on Friday late afternoon and had two proposals over the weekend, on Monday morning, meeting all of our wishes. On Zákhynthos we enjoyed a tailor-made program with daily yoga, tai-chi, pilates and fun private guided sports tours such as Kayak and SUP to the island's landmarks, yet avoiding the big crowds. We were so very well looked after in every step of the way! I wish we had known about Voyemo sooner! Highly recommend this agency!

Thank you, Voyemo. I had a fantastic time in South Africa and Zanzibar because of you. After a first proposal, Riccardo took time to understand my style of travel and planned it for me. The choice of hotels was exquisite, and the travel design was on point. All along with my trip, Riccardo made sure I was enjoying it and that everything was ok. Do not hesitate and travel with Voyemo

Riccardo was absolutely great to work with. He planned an amazing adventure for my sister and myself through Ecuador and the Galápagos Islands. All the details were sorted and we had absolutely nothing to worry about on the trip except to have fun. I definitely recommend working with his expertise when planning any adventure!

I had a great time in Peru with the help of Voyemo. The itinerary design and local guides are very professional. This is an outstanding travel design company and I would like to book my future trips with them.

Riccardo is the travel agent anyone would love to work with: caring, precise, passionate and on time. Riccardo and i connected through mutual followers online. Working with him has been one of my highlight of 2022. If you are planning a trip anywhere in the world and are looking for a stress and hassle-free agent contact Riccardo that will taylor your trip planning an amazing and customized vacation for you. Can’t wait to collaborate again!

Voyemo’s Retreat in Zanzibar was a perfect combination of doing and being, but right doing and right being that energized and refreshed me. My professional life in the past year had been intense. I had the impression of having little time and no energy to engage my body in a dynamic way. When I did have time, it felt difficult to self-motivate and to choose by myself a suitable, consistent program. In the days of the Voyemo Retreat, I accomplished more than I expected. Under the highly-trained expertise of Dennis both as a yoga instructor and as a fitness trainer, my body grew stronger, more flexible, more dynamic. The deeper tensions in my body were softened by the therapeutic massages of Larissa. There was also time to enjoy the beauty of Zanzibar. The body loves attention, movement, relaxation and adventure. Voyemo’s Retreat delivered it all and gave me a boost to make my own path to better health.

We just finished what turned out to be an amazing 2 week stay in Florence and the surrounding areas. Where to begin…Riccardo made our time there a true Italian experience without any glitches. We were able to discover a few real treasures of the Florentine and Tuscan offerings. It was like opening a gift around every corner and every day. Riccardo was able to help us plan every detail so that we had no stress…for us everything flowed so easily…although we know Riccardo was hard at work ‘behind the scenes’ ensuring that all our expectations were surpassed! He was courteous enough to meet us at the airport in Florence with a private transport to our luxurious hotel in the Oltrarno district where we found a beautiful bottle of Chianti Classico waiting for us, a perfect way to unwind after the long journey. During our stay, Riccardo was the perfect blend of host, friend, and expert adviser. He allowed us our space and let us choose how busy or not we wanted to be. In Florence, he organized a tour of the Vasari Corridor (so interesting!), an evening of fine wine and aperitif, a sunset tour by private car to piazzale di Michelangelo and San Miniato al monte, an evening opera outdoors at nearby Fiesole, and a day trip to San Gimignano (also by private car). In San Gimignano we had dinner at an amazing Tuscan Osteria and we were able to stay in the town late into the evening, eating gelato, walking, and talking. I highly recommend this, because San Gimignano is magical after the dinner hour…all the crowds of tourists leave by bus and you can really feel the true spirit of the town in those later hours. He also introduced us to several (non-tourist) bars, gelaterias, and restaurants in Florence, all the while entertaining us with the history of all that we were seeing. He is so knowledgeable and we loved to listen to him speak Italian as we are trying desperately to learn this lovely language. He also speaks perfect English for those that need it! We are so happy that we had these two weeks and that we had Riccardo’s assistance. With his help our two week vacation was truly maximized because we avoided the time consuming and sometimes expensive blunders that we usually make on our own, and we learned so much about Florence, the art, the history, the food, the wine… We feel as if we floated through time into another world. We returned home completely relaxed and we are dreaming and planning our return!

Riccardo and his team at Voyemo are top class travel experts. They created the most wonderful tailor-made honeymoon through Italy for us this summer which included the most beautiful hotels and many fun and memorable activities as well. They made sure all of the hotels looked after us well and provided us with lots of tips along the way to make sure we didn't miss out on any good spots. The customer service is brilliant, nothing is too much for the team. We are so grateful to them for helping us create the best memories possible. We would highly recommend them for any luxury travel needs and will definitely use them again. Thanks so much! Anna and Marc

My girlfriends and I took part to the tennis camp organised by Voyemo in Sicily and loved it. The organisation was impeccable, the hotel gorgeous, the food delicious and the David, our tennis couch, outstanding. Highly recommended.

Riccardo at Voyemo did a fabulous job planning and coordinating a trip of a lifetime to Italy for me and my husband. They did an incredible job pulling everything together, and provided guidance and updates along the way. Additionally, Riccardo worked with travel plans I already had, and efficiently navigated around various conflicts and travel needs. I will definitely partner with voyemo in the future for any big trips I have coming up!

Voyemo // Riccardo were absolutely fantastic in my search for a wellness escape. I stumbled across their site via Google. After sending Riccardo some details of what I was after I had a shortlist of incredible options in no time. Riccardo was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and so easy to deal with. I had the most beautiful stay in Mallorca and couldn't have asked for anything more.
