ABOUT SPORTIVO TRAVEL
For nearly three decades, Björn Svensson has helped thousands of clients experience some of the world’s most iconic sporting events. With passion, experience, and a strong network, he has created unforgettable journeys for amateurs, elites, clubs, and companies. With Sportivo Travel, you get more than a trip — you get a lifetime experience, and in many cases, new friends.
For almost thirty years, Björn Svensson has been a driving force behind Swedes' increased participation in some of Europe's most legendary sporting events. With genuine dedication to endurance sports, travel, and powerful experiences, he was among the first in Sweden to establish official partnerships with races such as Marcialonga, Maratona dles Dolomites, and La Diagonela — events that today attract thousands of participants from around the world.
In the early 2000s, Björn recognized the potential of combining sports and travel experiences. Through his previous company, Global Sports Tours, he built a strong network of partnerships with organizers, hotels, and local actors. With an eye for quality and attention to detail, he created travel packages that gave Swedish amateur athletes the opportunity to participate in events that had previously been hard to access as an individual.
For many, it became the start of something greater — dreams realized, finish lines never forgotten, and journeys that became more than just races. Over the years, thousands of clients have traveled with Björn and his team, to the snow-covered valleys of Val di Fiemme, steep climbs in the Dolomites, and shimmering winter landscapes in the Engadin.
With Sportivo Travel, Björn is now taking the next step. The vision is clear: to continue offering select world-class sporting experiences — with personal service, reliable logistics, and a passion for the sport at the center. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced enthusiast, the goal is for you to feel seen, inspired, and full of anticipation — from booking to the finish line.
