The Birth of Viventura

Viventura was created by Andre Kiwitz in the early 2000s after he fell in love with South America while traveling and working across the continent. He started the brand with the idea that travelers should experience South America alongside people who know it from within, not from an office far away. Small groups, direct collaboration with local partners and transparent pricing were part of the DNA from day one, long before responsible travel became a trend.

Meet the Brand Director

Today Viventura is led by Brand Director Mathilde Siccardi, who has lived many years in Colombia and traveled extensively across the continent. Her experience on the ground shapes itineraries that respect local realities and highlight the diversity of South America, from Andean villages to Amazon communities and vibrant cities. Mathilde works closely with local teams and guides so that every trip reflects real life in the region and keeps the spirit of Viventura alive.
