Voyage is the 1977 self-titled debut album by French disco group, Voyage. The songs on the album paid a nodding homage to musical styles of different regions of the world, as if the band and its listeners were taking a jet set trip around the world.

As was the case with a number of disco albums during the 1970s, all cuts of Voyage's debut release made it to number one on the U.S. disco chart.
