Travel Quest Network Announces Upcoming 2023 Events for Travel Industry Professionals
Travel Quest Network is traveling the country to bring together local travel professionals and suppliers for a day of learning, networking and fun.
ATLANTA, April 14, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Travel Quest Network, a leading host agency and the premier platform for building and growing a travel business in America is excited to announce its upcoming events designed to assist travel professionals in growing their businesses. Travel Quest Network events provide opportunities for travel advisors to connect with other professionals and leave with the tools they need to increase sales and expand their networks.
According to Jason Block, CEO of Travel Quest Network, "Events are a great way for Travel Quest Network to show what we're all about. We want to bring our members together and allow them to work with us hands-on. We ensure we do that through our diverse events."
Travel Quest Network's one-day roadshows allow members to connect locally with travel partners and colleagues through intensive courses, stopping in several cities over the coming months, including Houston, Texas; Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas; Seattle, Washington; Atlanta, Georgia; Orlando, Florida; Washington, D.C.; and Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Joshua Harrell, Chief Revenue Officer at Travel Quest Network, added, "Connecting via video chat or phone call is helpful, but the real magic happens when we meet with our members in person and listen to their stories. Travel Quest Network is a community, and there's no better way to foster that community than to bring everyone together."
Travel Quest Network's presence at major travel industry events extends this ideology. Its CORE ( C ultivate O pportunities to build R elationships and E levate your business) Summit, held Sunday, May 7th, is a marketing and sales-focused event in Nashville, Tennessee, preceding Travel Leaders Network's EDGE conference.
CORE is interactive and geared toward helping attendees create sales plans and develop marketing plans to achieve their business goals. CORE is also a celebration — attendees and those interested in networking are treated to a cocktail reception once their day is done.
Travel Quest Network also has events under its own banner — Travel Quest World, its premier event, held September 8-10, will be at the Waldorf Astoria in Orlando, Florida, giving attendees a chance to meet and learn from each other, business experts, and the Travel Quest Network team. Those in attendance will leave with new connections made, armed with the resources they need to take their business to the next level.
Through Travel Quest World and all of its events, Travel Quest Network is committed to providing diverse opportunities for travel professionals to sharpen their skills and feel more connected to their work.

TravelQuest Reviews
We have traveled with tq several times.
We have traveled with TQ several times and have been pleased every time. They really look after their guests and plan interesting activities in the region of the tour. All memorable experiences. I would give six stars but that one was eclipsed.
Thanks To TravelQuest
Thanks to TravelQuest I am enjoying this huge globe we call home. They pack your days with fun and food. Totalities and tours. Expeditions with excitement amongst the best assortment of world travelers. Lots of great and growing friendships are the culmination of every excursion. An eclipse is always a welcomed icing on the cake .
10th Eclipse Trip With TravelQuest
This was our 15th eclipse and our 10th eclipse trip with Travelquest, by my reckoning. They do a superb job of planning and executing the tours. Problems, and there are few visible, are dealt with usually proactively, so that we are left with no worries. Who knew there was so much to do around Perth ? And how did they find a hotel with “eclipse lights” on the stairway walls in the lobby? Michel Girardin as a Travelquest host is the best anywhere in the world–experienced and always looking out for his travellers’ interests to provide the best experience possible. Travelquest travellers are a well-educated, well-travelled and congenial lot. You can have a pleasant conversation on any number of topics with any of them. And they routinely understand the demands of group travel to be on time and get along. We look forward to our next TQ trip for the 2024 eclipse in Mexico.
Traveled With TravelQuest Many Times!
I have traveled with TravelQuest International many times and have always been very satisfied. My first expedition was in 2008 to the geographic North Pole and observing a total solar eclipse a week later. Since then I have traveled with TQ to Union Glacier, Antarctica to observe the total solar eclipse on Dec. 4, 2021 and many awesome points in between. Every tour has been well organized and so much fun. Meeting so many interesting people, catching up with old friends, and making new friendships make these tours so rewarding.

Your 48-hour tour guide of Moscow this winter!
9 am – Visit the Red Square
Christmas market on Red Square
The first thing that every tourist should do by default is visit the very heart of Moscow – it’s main and most beautiful (which ‘krasnaya’ actually meant in Old Russian) square!
There are several ways to explore it:
- Take a selfie with Spasskaya Tower
- Have a warm drink at the Christmas market (which lasts until mid-January)
- Visit Lenin’s Mausoleum
- Shop in the gorgeous adjacent GUM department store
- Visit St. Basil’s Cathedral (and learn that it’s actually several churches under one roof).
11 am – It’s Kremlin time!
Inside the Moscow Kremlin
Entering the Kremlin is, actually, a bit of a quest, as it’s a presidential facility with no general access. You need to buy a ticket or, better still, book a guided tour. Inside the Kremlin’s walls, you will find ancient cathedrals, in which Russian tsars used to be crowned and buried, as well as explore the magnificent architecture of the Kremlin that reflects the rich history of the country. And, finally, you could also make a quick visit to the Moscow Kremlin Museums and admire artifacts from various Russian tsarist eras: carriages, thrones, crowns and the most incredible armory and jewelry.
For more information, visit the official website of the Kremlin . It’s open from 10 am to 5 pm (and it’s closed on Thursdays) in winter.
2 pm – Watch the changing of the Guard
The honor guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
A very spectacular (and free) thing to do is watch how the honor guard does their ceremonial change at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the Eternal Flame, situated in Alexander Garden, right next to the Kremlin wall. Every hour, from 8 am to 8 pm, the 1st Company of the Kremlin (Presidential) Regiment performs this rather old and beautiful tradition. But, be warned, it's often overcrowded.
3 pm – Enjoy a green oasis just in the center
Florarium in Zaryadye
Just a few steps from the Red Square, you will find the fabulous Zaryadye park. Opened in 2017, it is designed by renowned American architect bureau ‘Diller Scofidio + Renfro’. You can walk among the very cozy botanical decorations and explore Russia’s climate zones, as each of them is represented in dedicated areas, complete with flora from those zones.
The floating bridge in Zaryadye Park
The park also has an underground museum, an “ice cave” and a 3D cinema, where you can take part in a virtual adventure – a flight over Moscow! However, the piece de resistance is a floating boomerang bridge over the Moskva River, one of the best places to take a selfie.
You can also grab a quick lunch or relax with a cup of coffee or tea in the park.
7 pm – Arrange a ballet night
The Bolshoi Theater
Of course, the most fancy way to finish your day in Moscow would be to go to the ballet at the Bolshoi Theater (in a perfect world, to see ‘The Nutcracker’!). However, getting tickets to the Bolshoi is not an easy task and should be done well in advance of your visit.
But, don’t be upset if you don’t manage to get tickets to the Bolshoi. Moscow has dozens of other options to see a ballet (or opera). No less brilliant performances can be seen in the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theater or in The State Kremlin Palace (by the way, this is another way to get a quick glimpse inside the Kremlin!).
10:30 pm – Have a late dinner in a fancy restaurant
Dr Zhivago restaurant
There are not so many other cities with such a big choice of restaurants in a range of tastes and styles. In 2021, the authoritative Michelin guide announced their pick of the best of Moscow’s restaurants. And here’s our guide to all the places with Russian cuisine for any budget. But, if you happen to be in the area of the Bolshoi or Nemirovich-Danchenko Theater, then ‘Dr. Zhivago’ would definitely be a nice option (and it’s open around the clock).
DAY 2
9 am – grab a moscow coffee.
Winter festivities mood in Moscow
Moscow is definitely a coffee city! You can find coffee shops on every corner and they all offer a huge range of drinks. Try a ‘raf’ coffee, a sweet, creamy drink that was created in Russia, or dare to pick one of the very unusual offers, like cheese coffee or a Soviet candy style one (check out our coffee guide here ).
10 am – Take a river cruise
Winter boating along the Moskva River
Another exciting way to explore Moscow is to observe it from the water. Boats cruise along the Moskva River all year round. Most begin their route from the Hotel Ukraine, one of Stalin's ‘Seven Sister’ skyscrapers, and will bring you back to the same spot after passing the medieval Novodevichy Convent, Moscow State University and Luzhniki Stadium, the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour and giant monument to Peter the Great and many other sightseeings.
It’s always at optimum temperature inside the boat, which also has huge panoramic windows. Select boats also offer a full dining experience, so it is also a nice place to have breakfast or lunch.
If you are not a water person, then discover other, unusual sides of Moscow – pick one of the activities we’ve prepared for you here !
1 pm – Visit ‘Russia’ Expo and taste a bunch of Russian regional cuisines
Russia Expo at VDNKh
Until April 2024, the Soviet-era VDNKh exhibition park is hosting the huge ‘Russia’ expo, with tons of activities and expositions devoted to Russia, its culture, science and nature. Check out our special guide on what to do there!
An entire ‘House of Russian Cuisine’ has been opened at the expo. You will find 15 food stands with flagship dishes from Kamchatka, Siberia, Karelia and other regions of Russia. Imagine trying a range of cuisines and dishes in one place without even having to travel anywhere, be it Altai pelmeni, Tula kalach or Caucasian pies! A perfect place to grab some lunch.
House of Russian cuisines at VDNKh
The VDNKh exhibition park is a great place to visit, in general! Its pavilions are the perfect example of Stalinit Empire style architecture and you can almost feel as if you’ve traveled back in time! You will also find several interesting museums in the park – devoted to space exploration, Russian history and even a ‘Special Purpose Garage’, which showcases the various vehicles used by the country’s leaders.
'Sun of Moscow' wheel
And, finally, you can ride Europe's tallest panoramic wheel – ‘Sun of Moscow’ – that will give you panoramic views of the city – from a height of 140 meters!
5 pm – Ice skate with view & mulled wine
Ice skating rink on Red Square (GUM department store on the background)
Ice skating is one of the most popular and affordable activities in Moscow. There are several great ice skating rinks in picturesque locations that are open all winter long. One of the biggest rinks in Europe is also at the aforementioned VDNKh or you can visit the one in Gorky Park, another very popular Moscow spot, or the small, but fancy rink – right on Red Square!
All the parks offer ice skate rental, so the only things you need are warm clothes, a charged phone to record your memories and a good mood! Moscow also gets dark at 4:30 pm in winter and hundreds of lights are switched on, turning the city into a giant fairy tale!
A mulled wine with a view
And, if you are not a sports person, we’ve picked several other unusual activities that you could do in Moscow instead. For example, did you know that there is an entire district of dacha (countryside) houses, just 10 minutes from the center, surrounded by giant new highrises? How about taking a stroll there and feeling the early Soviet atmosphere?
8 pm – Warm up & laugh out loud
After all these outdoor activities, what could be better than a warm cozy bar with a hot drink and nice company? Moscow is a city full of entertainment for all tastes. So, if you know the Russian language or want to practice it, go to a theater or catch a stand-up comedy show. Moscow even has comedy shows in English, where you can hear both Russians speaking fluent English or foreigners (including Brits and Americans) who live in Russia speaking in broken or heavily-accented Russian (Check their show dates on the ‘ Moscow English Comedy ’ Telegram channel)!
11 pm – Finish by partying the night away!
Propaganda club in Moscow
Moscow never sleeps, as you might have heard. Which means there are plenty of bars and nightclubs where you can have a drink (or two or three; be sure to check out how Russians make Black Russian and White Russian cocktails) and chat with incredibly different people. Have fun and don’t miss your flight (or miss it and stay longer in the best city in the world!)!
That's it! See you soon in Moscow

The Moscow City Tourism Committee conference for the key stakeholders from Indian MICE market
The moscow city tourism committee recognized the market demands and organized the shaping mice future conference for representatives of the indian mice industry, to introduce them to the tourism strengths of the russian capital..
The event (Moscow City Tourism Committee conference) took place on April 19 in Delhi and brought together over 100 participants from MICE agencies of both countries, corporate customers, representatives of the travel industry in Moscow, Aeroflot and the Indian branches of Sberbank.
Business tourism is one of the most promising directions for Moscow. In 2023, the capital was visited by 3.7 million business tourists – 7% more than in 2022. And India remains one of the leaders among visitors from non-CIS countries in terms of the number of business travelers.
“The Russian capital as a center of business tourism and corporate events is already an established and a strong brand in the international arena,” – commented Anastasia Popova, Deputy General Director for International and Industry Cooperation of Project Office for the Development of Tourism and Hospitality in Moscow. – Now our task is to demonstrate to our Indian partners all the possibilities of organizing high value MICE events in Moscow in combination with already proven tourist programs”.
At the Shaping MICE Future Conference industry experts from Russia and India pronounced statements and speeches on the future of MICE events in these two countries, a presentation of the MICE potential of Moscow was showcased, and an analytical report on the state of the outbound MICE market in India was presented to the visitors.
During the panel discussion participants assessed the current status and interaction peculiarities with the MICE market in India, and developed recommendations for the MICE industry in Moscow during the general brainstorming session. Representatives of the Indian MICE industry participated in B2B negotiations to find new cross-partners in the Moscow business environment and among representatives of the hospitality industry.
Representatives of the MICE industry took part in the event from Moscow. Among them were DMC (Grand Rus, Academservice, Headed Goose, Satguru Travel, Isba Rus, Hug the Bear, Mellenium Group)) as well as representatives of other partners interested in the development of MICE cooperation between Russia and India: Global transfers provider i’way and hotels Edge Seligerskaya & Edge Vinogradovo Moscow by Rotana.
“In 2024, we have witnessed a significant surge (more than quadruple) in the demand for transfers by Russians visiting India, both for business and leisure purposes. Muscovites are leading the trend, with 80% of transfer bookings originating from the capital since the beginning of the year. Additionally, we observe a growing interest from Indian tourism agencies in exploring Russia, resulting in a substantial increase in our collaboration,” — commented Dmitriy Saraykin, co-founder of Global Transfer Provider i’way.
The Shaping MICE Future conference allowed the Moscow City Tourism Committee to form a pool of MICE industry representatives in Moscow to prioritize incoming requests for events, clarify India’s requirements for business and corporate events to build mutually effective work. Indian colleagues received up-to-date information about Moscow as a safe and attractive MICE destination, and were able to find potential partners among representatives of the MICE industry of the Russian capital and were able to present the MICE market in India.
“The event (Moscow City Tourism Committee conference) served as a remarkable platform for fostering meaningful dialogue and collaboration within the tourism industry. The event (Moscow City Tourism Committee conference) provided us with invaluable opportunities to engage with key stakeholders from the tourism department, as well as tour operators and service providers.
The insights gained during the event (Moscow City Tourism Committee conference) underscored the Moscow City Tourism Committee’s keen interest in the Indian outbound market, and we are optimistic about the promising prospects for Moscow as a destination, particularly in the post-pandemic landscape. We firmly believe that with concerted efforts and strategic initiatives, Moscow has the potential to emerge as a top-choice destination for Indian tourists,” — shared his impressions Mudit Mathur, director of Tours Delite India, representing Academ Service – Russia in India.
The conference also assessed the solutions to foreign demand for non-standard venues and elements in MICE programs, such as museums, parks, theaters and others. Holding MICE events at offbeat locations, such as the State Historical Museum, the Moscow Planetarium and Khudozhestvenny Cinema, is becoming popular. This helps to attract conference organizers and creates a unique experience for the participants. Working in this format, many visitors who came to Moscow on a business trip want to return with their families and spend time as regular tourists.
In 2023, 60 thousand guests from India visited Moscow – a quarter more than a year earlier. This year, according to the results of January and February India entered the top 5 countries in terms of the volume of e-visas issued. E-visa was one of the significant factors in the recovery of demand for hotel services and high utilization (76%) of Moscow hotels in 2023 and, as a consequence, the growth of international tourist traffic, the activation of business and classical tourists from India, China, Iran, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and so on.
One of the significant initiatives launched to support the growth of the tourist flow is the Moscow MICE Ambassadors Program – an online certification program for representatives of the Indian market, which aims to create demand for Moscow as a MICE destination.
The Moscow City Tourism Committee and NIMA (Network of Indian MICE Agents) jointly launched the pilot project last year. The first 50 people from the Indian side who underwent the training and learned the intricacies of organizing business events in the Russian capital have received the relevant certificates. In 2024, the program will be made available to other MICE operators as well and is expected to expand to a total of 200 Moscow MICE Ambassadors by the end of the year .
