Geoffrey Ravoire

Aug 1

We are proud to announce that Geoffrey has been named Virtuoso’s 2022 Rising Star, a recognition awarded by industry peers.

French born, Geoffrey grew up in the Alps and later completed his Master’s degree in Business and Hospitality Management in Reims, the capital of Champagne. He has accumulated an extensive experience abroad, thanks to regular family vacations to foreign countries and territories (over 55 and counting) but also thanks to years of expatriation. Before Chicago, Geoffrey lived and worked in France, New York City, Taipei, Shanghai, and Monaco.

Geoffrey’s education and personal interests have always helped him nurture and cultivate a passion for the travel industry. From an early marketing role with a prestigious hotel group in Monaco to contributing to the development of the yachting market in China, Geoffrey has enjoyed building rewarding connections with a solid network of friends and partners.

Geoffrey is excited to bring to Huffman Travel his natural flair for marketing, service, his yachting culture, and his never-ending appetite to discover original itineraries.

When not researching unique destinations and experiences, Geoffrey continues to travel as much as possible, but also enjoys local hikes in the California desert, and yoga.
