DaCapo Story

Destination Management Company

We are DaCapo Travel – Travel Design Studio

DaCapo Travel - Design Studio is a travel agency and destination management company (DMC) that specialises in developing, organising and implementing tailor-made travel products for business customers.

We work exclusively in the B2B sector and support tour operators, agencies and professional partners with well-thought-out travel concepts, reliable operational implementation and a curated network of selected operators and destination partners.

As a DMC, we specialise in Austria, with a particular focus on Tyrol and the surrounding regions.

In these destinations, we design, organise and run our travel programmes ourselves – from the initial idea to implementation on site.

In addition to organising our own trips, we offer a platform where external tour operators can present their offers. This serves as a source of inspiration and a means of establishing contact: further communication, consultation and the conclusion of contracts take place directly between the respective business partners.

Our aim is to view travel not as a standardised product, but as a carefully designed experience – tailored to the target group, destination and purpose of the trip.

Why Travel Design Studio?

The name Travel Design Studio describes our working methods and our standards. We ‘design’ trips – similar to how a design studio designs products: with concept, structure, experience and attention to detail. Every trip starts with an idea, is strategically planned and then professionally implemented.

The term studio stands for:

  • tailor-made solutions instead of mass offerings
  • creative thinking combined with operational expertise
  • personal support and high quality standards

As Travel Design Studio, we combine:

  • the operational strength of a travel agency and a DMC
  • with the conceptual approach of product and experience design

This results in travel products that not only work, but also offer clear added value – for our B2B partners as well as their customers.


Our Story

14 January 2025

DaCapo Travel was founded by Michael Khuen-Belasi.

14 January 2025

Until 1998 the company focused on and specialized in the Italian market.

14 January 2025

In 1998 we began to offer our successful formula on the Belgian and French markets.

14 January 2025

Saw a transitional phase where the company focused on developing and implementation of new marketing strategies and we continued to offer our services to customers from Italy, Belgium and France.

Our role

Depending on the project, we operate:

  • as a travel agency and DMC, particularly for trips in Austria with a focus on Tyrol, which we plan and carry out ourselves
  • or as a curating platform and network partner, when we showcase travel offers from external operators and connect business partners with each other

In all cases, we value clear roles, transparent processes and partnership-based cooperation.

How to find us

Since our business is based in Pill, in the middle of Tyrol, we have great experience with bus tours and adventure holidays throughout Tyrol and the Alps. From Bavaria to South Tyrol, from Lake Constanze to Salzburg – we know the area like the back of our hand! Our bus drivers know the best routes, the best look-out points and even the best places to stop for a snack and will drive you everywhere safely. You will learn all about the history and legends of our wonderful destinations from our enthusiastic and knowledgeable guides who are like walking guide-books.
