About Us
Arenatours was born from a travel to the Maldives, inspired by the dream of bringing paradise closer to the world. Our motto: “Paradise in Your Hands“.
Our founders, Oskar Yarza, a relentless entrepreneur, and Davide Galimberti, a Maldives expert with extensive experience in luxury travel management, combined their skills to create Spain’s first Maldives travel specialist agency.
With an innovative business model focused entirely on customer satisfaction, we offer tailor-made travel experiences. Every resort detail is meticulously curated to help our clients choose the perfect island for their dream holiday.

A deep knowledge of the few destinations we operate in, an efficiently optimised operation, and a team of passionate professionals are the key to ensuring you experience the best holiday of your life.
Our know-how, combined with exceptional agility in resolving issues—thanks to direct relationships with hotels and suppliers—allows us to react quickly to unforeseen situations, particularly in distant destinations like the Maldives, where time zones can be a challenge.
Our Greatest Asset: Our Team
Our travel consultants are not just experts; they are passionate travellers themselves. They accompany you throughout the journey, ensuring a seamless and unforgettable experience.
We believe in building strong partnerships with our suppliers, relying on years of expertise and mutual trust. Fast response times and accessibility are fundamental to maintaining the highest quality standards.
Beyond Selling Holidays
What truly differentiates us from other agencies is our in-destination management approach. From the moment you land in the Maldives until your departure, we provide a seamless and personalised experience.
We are also committed to sustainable tourism, actively contributing to the local economy and ensuring our operations align with eco-friendly principles.
Tell us your vision, and we’ll bring paradise to your hands!
In recent years, many agencies have emerged claiming to be Maldives specialists, particularly post-pandemic. However, true expertise is easy to verify—simply check the company registration dates. The internet preserves history, and our long-standing reputation speaks for itself.
