vPlus: something special, something more

Extraordinary experiences, crafted by the people who know your destination best.

vPlus is our way of going beyond the expected — offering unique cultural moments created by our intrapreneurs, Brand Directors and local partners. These are personal, meaningful experiences that you simply won’t find anywhere else.

What Makes vPlus Unique

Takayama Kimono

At Ventura Travel, we believe that travel should feel special — not standardised. vPlus is born from this belief.

Every vPlus experience begins with a simple idea: If our team discovers something remarkable, inspiring or touching, our travellers should experience it too.

Since our founding, we’ve empowered our Brand Directors and destination specialists to follow their instincts, build their own relationships, and design encounters that genuinely reflect the heart of each region.

The result is a collection of extraordinary moments that elevate a tour from “memorable” to “unforgettable.”

The People Behind It: Our Intrapreneurs & Brand Directors

vPlus exists because of the creativity and dedication of the people behind our brands.

Our intrapreneurs — from Japan and Peru to Namibia and Vietnam — spend months each year on the ground, forging personal connections with artisans, community leaders, local guides, and families. Many speak the language, have lived in the region, or have studied its history and traditions extensively.

This deep local insight allows them to design experiences that are:

  • Authentic, not manufactured

  • Personal, not packaged

  • Meaningful, not superficial

In short, these are moments built by people who truly care.

What a vPlus Experience Might Look Like

Private encounters with local craftsmen

Exclusive access to community-led projects

Intimate cultural workshops

Expert-led experiences shaped by passion

These activities aren’t bought off a shelf — they’re nurtured through trust, respect and long-term relationships.

Why vPlus matters

For our guests, vPlus means the chance to experience a destination with a depth and warmth that larger tours simply can’t deliver

Smaller groups

Travel in a way that opens doors without overwhelming local communities

Genuine access

Experience people and places beyond the usual crowded tourist routes

Local insight

Enjoy unique moments shaped by genuine local knowledge, not passing trends
