Olive Tree Escapes is a travel company that provides luxury bespoke journeys to Italy, Croatia, Slovenia and Montenegro. We specialize in designing upscale and customized experiences for the discerning traveler. What sets us apart is that we focus 100% on the Mediterranean area in order to achieve a level of expertise a notch higher than large-spanning operators, and our travel designers are US-based to help you plan the trip, while you still get the full support from our on-site offices in Italy and Croatia.
Our Founder & President: Beth Rubin
“While she can plan romantic getaways to Florence or family vacations to Rome, Rubin encourages travelers look beyond popular destinations. In Calabria, she has helped clients track their ancestors. From Milan, she’s set up excursions to such cities as Mantua and Cremona. Even on classic trips, Rubin tempts clients with unusual day trips or excursions like visiting a saffron producer in Umbria as an addition to a winery-filled vacation in Tuscany and Piedmont.” -- Travel+Leisure
Beth Rubin started her career in the travel industry in 2000, designing unique Italian itineraries loaded with first-hand tips after her return to the US from a study abroad experience in Cortona, Tuscany. After 17 years of success in the travel industry and two Travel + Leisure® A-List of Top Travel Advisor awards, Rubin’s passion led to the opening of Olive Tree Escapes, her own Chicago-based bespoke luxury travel company.
