UNIQUE EXPERIENCE PROVIDER WITHIN TRAVEL, CULTURE AND LEISURE. European Travel Ventures was formed in 2008 as the result of a very successful sailing holiday! The company is a reflection of the founders’ passion for adventure and their curiosity to discover new cultures and places. The sailing holiday became known as The Yacht Week and has since evolved from solely yachting adventures into multiple recreational initiatives such as The Ski Week, Yachts and Friends and Fort George.
