What &Olives Travel does

&Olives Travel is a Dutch tour operator and online travel agency operating under the legal entity Bergerbos B.V. (KvK 59875453), headquartered at Toermalijnstraat 12D, 1812RL Alkmaar, Netherlands. Founded in 2020 as a spin-off from the 50-year-old Isropa Reizen, the company sells curated package holidays, fly-drives, villa vacations, island-hopping itineraries, round trips, themed trips, and customized 'reizen op maat' primarily to Dutch consumers seeking authentic, small-scale alternatives to mass tourism. Its core destinations are Mediterranean (Greece, Italy, Portugal, Cyprus, Malta, Spain, Croatia), with selective long-haul expansion into Argentina, South Africa, Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Costa Rica, Norway, Finland, and Iceland.

The business runs on a direct-to-consumer model through its website (andolives.nl) and phone reservations, supplemented by a Dutch travel-agent reseller channel (commission-based, with quotes returned within three working days). Revenue is generated from package transactions, per-booking reservation fees (€37.50 standard, €50 for custom itineraries), a Calamiteitenfonds contribution of €2.50 per booking, and an embedded insurance referral partnership with Allianz Global Assistance. Pricing examples range from approximately €528 per person for short villa stays in Puglia to €1,837 per person for a 15-day fly-drive through Puglia.

The technology stack is non-proprietary: a transactional website, a mobile app (&Olives Reisapp) for delivering digital travel documents and specialist tips, and a standard payment infrastructure supporting iDEAL, Visa, and Mastercard. The company holds required Dutch travel-sector certifications (ANVR no. 5135, SGR, Calamiteitenfonds) plus sustainability (Travelife Partner), privacy (AVG OK), and brand recognition (WOTY 2025, Trustpilot 4.5). It is independently owned, employs 1-10 people, and has not raised institutional capital. A wholly-owned sub-brand, Victoria CamperHolidays, extends the product line into camper-based travel.
