Welcome to Trips & Views Travel Agency where your journey begins to pleasure, excitement and unforgettable memories! 

Hello, I'm Violeta King, a travel enthusiast born in the land of Transylvania, where the mountains meet the sky and the stories never end. With a childhood filled with tales of Dracula and medieval castles, I was destined to explore the world beyond the Carpathian Mountains. And so I set out on a journey to discover new lands, immerse myself in diverse cultures and collect unforgettable experiences. 

For 15 years, I worked on river and ocean cruise liners, and with each new destination I gained a deeper appreciation for the beauty of our world and the people who call it home. 

Trips & Views is my dream to share the world's wonders with fellow explorers, to help others create their own life-changing adventures. Travel is not just about visiting new places but also about experiencing the joy and excitement that comes with discovering new cultures, breathtaking landscapes and hidden gems.

My aim is to turn your travel dreams into reality. Whether you’re seeking a serene river cruise through picturesque villages or an exhilarating ocean voyage to exotic destinations, let me take care of the details so you can focus on the pleasure of your adventure. Whether you're a fellow wanderer or planning your first trip, I'm here to guide you every step of the way. 

At Trips & Views, it’s not just about booking trips – it’s about creating experiences that you’ll cherish forever!

Sacred spaces, quiet wonder

Where seasons speak in colors

Japan’s beauty is vast and ever-changing in all seasons. Here you can wander through cherry blossoms in the spring or experience Mount Fuji, dotted with bright foliage, by fall.

Celebrations that move the spirit

Japan is a country known for its vibrant cultural celebrations, honoring everything from the changing of the seasons to plum blossoms, fireworks and floats. Tradition and festivity come alive year-round with unique events where giant paper images of samurai warriors, animals and popular cartoon characters parade through the streets.
