Awesome Testimonials

travel connection travel agency

As a new agent, I am constantly amazed and appreciative of all the wonderful things ICT has made available to its agents. And as a new agent appreciate the reminders you send regarding the ICT site and other helpful sites. I can't imagine another agency having the incredible wealth of information ready for its agents at a click of a mouse. I had a couple of minutes and wanted to pass along my thanks for all ICT does to make our jobs as agents easier. I must say that between all the reading I've been doing about the travel business, ICT's website, and the chatline, I have learned more than I ever thought possible in the last 6 months. Again thanks for all you've done to help me along. Diane, Kiana Travel
I just want to say that I really appreciate all the help and support you have given to me since I joined ICT! There are so many areas where I still have so much to learn! Going from selling only one product, as a specialized agent, to selling everything from my home and doing all my own paperwork has been quite a change for me. I have made my share of errors and have asked you a million or so questions. You have never failed to be kind and quick with your responses. Mary
Just wanted to take a second and tell you how excited I am to be working with you and your staff. The professional level of service and support your agency offers is great. Robert continues to be a source of knowledge and assistance in helping make my transition seamless. Your communications of industry promotions and announcements are a huge assistance in keeping up on daily events. Thank you again, and please pass on to your staff the note that their efforts are not unnoticed. John, International Tours-BHM
I just wanted to tell you how amazed I was at the rapid response I received from other ICT agents last week when I requested info about a water show in Las Vegas. Harvey, you have put together an incredible group here! Within 20 minutes of asking for help I had 22 replies! Not only did they give me the correct name of the show, I also received phone numbers, website addresses, ticket prices, ticket brokers and Lyn of Four Seasons Travel even told me the best vantage point (in a restaurant) to see the show!  I know this isn't anything new to you, but trust me, I'm impressed! This is a great group! I should add that my first encounter with other ICT agents was equally impressive. Susan from Astro Travel has been an enormous help to me. She even took the time to walk me thru some Sabre steps that I didn't understand. And Don & Beth also sent me a page of Hawaii State government links that would have taken me a week to find. Deana, Elegant Cow Travel
I just wanted to tell you thank you for having such a great support structure. I have been able to learn so much from the ICT site as well as from the other agents that share so readily.  I am new to this industry and I have never been so happy, even though it has at times been very frightening. I did not get into this business to travel, but to be an entrepreneur. The travel is a nice occasional perc to learn. My niche is not an easy one ( soft adventure and off-beat travel), but it is the one that will keep me happy and in this business.  I started with you in late August of 2000 and still going strong.  My goal is to earn my IATAN card again within the year of my start date. I am proud to say that I am approaching this lofty goal rapidly.  When I reach my goal it will be because of ICT and all the support I have had from the various agents that have stepped up to help.  Once again a big thank you to the entire ICT team. Sami, Barefoot Adventures

Review of The Travel Connection, Aurora, Ohio: Title: A Disappointing Experience at The Travel Connection In early December 2023, I visited The Travel Connection in Aurora, Ohio, located in the same building as my trusted barbershop. In an era where travel agencies are rare, I thought their continued operation was a testament to their service. I couldn't have been more mistaken. My simple request to plan a celebratory trip for my daughter's high school graduation - either to Yellowstone or Atlantis in the Bahamas - was met with an astonishing lack of professionalism. Instead of helpful guidance, I encountered condescension and rudeness from an employee who seemed overwhelmed by a routine inquiry. When I suggested a Viking river cruise as a conversation topic, her dismissive response insinuated that my taste was inferior, equating a renowned cruise line with being subpar. Following this visit, I left a candid yet respectful review on Google, omitting the employee's name as a courtesy. However, the situation escalated bizarrely. This employee, evidently upset by my feedback, reportedly broke down in my barber's shop, leading to an unfortunate and wholly unnecessary rift between my barber and me. The travel agency's owner's response to my review was the icing on the cake. Instead of addressing my concerns, they resorted to personal attacks, labelling me as a troll and questioning my empathy. Moreover, their threatening demeanor, as relayed to me, was both unprofessional and unsettling. This experience highlights a severe lapse in customer service and professionalism at The Travel Connection. It's disheartening to see a local business react so defensively to constructive criticism, resulting in personal conflicts and strained relationships. Their inability to handle a negative review without resorting to emotional manipulation and threats is alarming. For those considering using their services, be aware that while they may have numerous positive reviews, my experience suggests a potential risk of unprofessionalism and hostility, especially if your experience deviates from the expected. In business, especially one centered on customer service, the ability to accept feedback graciously and maintain professionalism is paramount. Unfortunately, The Travel Connection, in my case, fell significantly short of these standards.

Travel Connection planned our trip to Ireland for our group of 8 (2 families). Eunan was our driver and he was amazing. Very knowledgeable and easy going. We learned so much. Hotels were great and our trip was perfect. Thank you Travel Connection. We will be back!

Becky really knows so much about travel, but still looks to personalize a trip to suit her clients. She is very personable as well.

Thanks to the Travel Connection for planning an amazing Ireland vacation. It was a trip of a lifetime!! The great staff planned and made sure our trip was amazing from beginning to end! We didn't have to worry about anything, everything was planned for us. We just got on our plane and enjoyed the vacation. Thank you to Pat Hollywood and the ladies at The Travel Connection. We will definitely be planning more vacations.

travel connection travel agency

The Travel Connection does a fantastic job handling all our business travel needs for our various corporate divisions. Unfortunately the Yelp app makes it difficult to find the actual real "The Travel Connection" directing me initially to some companies utilizing the same or similar name.

Photo of Chausterbuffet S.

few things this place never mention are smokers ruin people vacation. i hate to go places and found out smelly smokers are there. it so frustrating. they never mention about hurricane or bad weather. i have met so many people that there vacation was ruin by construction, rain, too hot, hurricane, and smelly smokers when that got there.

Having recognised the demand for high-level match ticket packages for incentives and corporate hospitality at Premiership matches, Travel Connection became the first travel company to make a commitment to a permanent match ticket and hotel allocation at a Premiership football club, Chelsea FC, in 1997. Our Barcelona office was established in 1998, following the same business model as London, and became the first travel and event firm to hold a ticket allocation at the Nou Camp. Subsequently, formal arrangements were made with all of the most popular Premiership football clubs, allowing us to draw on the widest range of official ticket and match day hospitality arrangements for sport and entertainment. In 2006, Travel Connection became an official partner with the newly constructed and largest all covered arena in the world, Wembley Stadium. We also increased our portfolio of products to include England Internationals and the English FA Cup Final.

Travel Connection’s sport and entertainment division has been, and always will be, passionate about all of our clients. We are a highly focused, resourceful, cohesive, adaptable team that runs on initiative and strives for excellence. Global brands, travel agencies and sports teams continue to choose Travel Connection due to our professional and knowledgeable approach to every business dilemma. With over 30 staff, who can communicate in several languages, nothing will get lost in translation. We pride ourselves on being a multi-lingual and multi-national team, with an in-depth understanding of our international clients requirements.

Whether it is an English Premiership, Spanish La Liga, Champions league, Copa del Rey, FA Cup football match with fine dining and executive box facilities; Tennis at The Championships in Wimbledon, or perhaps the Circuit de Catalunya or the Formula 1 British Grand Prix at Silverstone, these are experiences that are available to you through Travel Connection. As an authorised agent for most famous English Premier League and Spanish La Liga clubs, we offer a comprehensive range of clubs including Arsenal FC, Manchester United, Chelsea FC, Liverpool FC, Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, all events at Wembley Stadium including the world famous FA Cup Final, and most recently Paris St Germain.

Moscow Travel Guide

Why travel to Moscow

Contrasts: 12th century monasteries and some of the tallest skyscrapers in Europe can be found side-by-side in this complex and captivating city. The diversity of this mega-city is astounding. Only a few steps away from the solemn red facade of the Kremlin and the sounds of righteous church bells, a buzzing night scene and alternative-fashion boutiques can be found.

Culture: In Moscow only the best goes. Be it a theatre, restaurant or gallery, the standards are certain to be world-class. The Bolshoi ballet company is reputed to be even better than the Mariinsky’s and “MMOMA” (Moscow’s museum of modern art) exhibits works of art as profound as any that could be found in the famed MOMA.

Convenience: Unlike the rest of Russia, it’s easy enough to get by with just English in Moscow and, driving excepted, it is surprisingly safe: the murder rate is lower than in some of America’s major cities.

Why visit Moscow

It would take more than two days to walk around the perimeter of the biggest city in Europe, Moscow. Many of its inhabitants barely know what’s beyond the few blocks around their flat and there are so many attractions that it’s almost impossible to know where to start. If there is such a thing as an antidote to boredom, Moscow City is it. The mind-boggling range and diversity of things to do, places to eat, parks, historical monuments and more means that a vacation in Moscow has a wealth of activities to offer for every type of traveler, from young families to retirees.

Reasons to Vacation in Moscow in 2022

The Bolshoi theatre is familiar to almost everyone as Russia’s grandest theatre, but what people don’t know is that there are many more bolshoi (big) sites in Moscow that are worth travelling all the way to Moscow to see. For more than 100 years, the world’s biggest bell has been hidden behind the Kremlin’s walls and inside Moscow’s main park (which is bigger than some countries!) there is the world’s largest outdoor ice-rink. Travelers that visit Moscow can stay at the Izmailovo, Europe’s biggest hotel, then eat at the largest and most historic McDonald’s in Europe and after that have fun at the largest European indoor theme park!

Ancient Past & Stunning Architecture:

As those who travel to Moscow will see, just because Moscow is a city of record-breaking, glitzy high-rises doesn’t mean that there is no history. On the famous Arbat street, time-worn, wooden storehouses and century-old churches are squashed up against grey, soviet blocks which are then towered over by 21st century office-blocks. Unlike its much younger sibling, St Petersburg, Moscow’s roots stretch way back to the 12th century. Within the walls of the Kremlin, the city’s oldest building the Cathedral of Assumption can be admired in all its 500+ years of age.

Culture & Convenience

For a foreigner who has never visited Russia, Moscow is the perfect stepping stone into this great land of mystery. From the country’s best classical ballet troupes to snow-white troikas trotting through the parks, all the highlights of Russian culture can be had in Moscow without any of the complications that would be expected in other, less developed regions of Russia.

Cheap as Caviar

In Moscow, everything is bargain when with the current foreign exchange rates being what they are. Even caviar doesn’t seem so dear when the exchange rate is at 60rub to the dollar, so go on indulge yourself! Take your 2022 vacation in Moscow and have the best of both worlds, with European luxury at very affordable prices.

Lena, our guide in Moscow was excellent. She was very knowledgable and could answer any question we had for her. We liked that she could pick up on our interests and take us places we might not have thought of to go. When we realized that one of the places we had chosen to see would probably not be that interesting to us, she was able to arrange entry to the Diamond Fund and the Armoury for us. Riding the Metro with Lena was a real adventure and a lot of fun. In Saint Petersburg we found Anna well versed in the history of the Tsars and in the Hermitage collection. Arkady in Veliky Novgorod was a very good guide and answered all of our questions with ease. Novgorod was perhaps a long way to go for a day trip, but we did enjoy it. Vasily was a great driver to have and kept us safe with good humour and skill. We enjoyed ourselves so much, my daughter says she is already planning to return. We would both have no hesistation to recommend ExpresstoRussia to anyone we know.

Just wanted to let you know that My grandson Bruno and I couldn´t have been more pleased with our week in Moscow (6/15 - 6/21). We were absolutely enchanted with the whole experience, including getting lost a couple of times in the Metro during our free time. Although both our guides (both Eleanas) were excellent, I would particularly commend the first one (she took us to the Tatiakov, the KGB tour, and to that beautiful cemetery where so many great Russian artists, authors, composers, musicians, militarists, and politicians are buried). Her knowledge is encyclopedic; and her understanding of today´s Russia as a product of its past was, for us, truly enlightening. I will be taking another tour in Russia, with my wife, within the next two or three years. I will be in touch with you when the time comes. Meanwhile, I will refer you to other potential visitors to Russia as I meet them.

We had a great time both in Moscow and St Petersburg. Your travel agency was excellent in coordinating the whole trip. Everything worked like clockwork. The guides assigned to us were very nice and friendly. They had a great knowledge of their subjects. The cars and the drivers were great. The hotels were good and the itinerary was good. All in all, it was a wonderful experience. It was nice dealing with you and your company. Thank you very much for a great Russian experience. Have a great future ahead

We enjoyed the whole trip a lot

Overall we enjoyed the whole trip a lot. Moscow is beautiful and clean. Thank you very much for your patience and excellent organization of this tour. Everything ran very smoothly and according to schedule. The guides met us on time at hotels or at our train carriage on arrival. They all spoke good English, had a good local knowledge and were very kind and helpful.

The tour lived up to all expectations

I’m most pleased with Travel All Russia in arranging our ‘Volga Dream’ Russia tour, I would recommend using your services again as every aspect of our tour went off without a hitch. The communication between our tour representative was excellent as we required additional days on both ends of our tour. The visa process and the logistics were flawlessly implemented.

We had a great time in Moscow!

Everything was perfect and we are very satisfied with services and accommodations.

Loved my time in Russia

The trip was great. Especially want to mention the guides I had on the extra days were exceptional. Both guides and drivers worked out well. Thanks again for all your help and attention. Loved my time in Russia, and still haven’t stopped talking about it.

Exploring Magnificent Russian Capitals, June 2017

Just want to say that our guide in St Petersburg was really outstanding. You really felt like someone was looking after you. Very observant - knowledgeable. We really enjoyed time spent with her.

Exploring Vibrant Moscow, June 2017

Moscow in 1 Day (Walking tour)

Welcome to visit moscow tours.

We provide authentic, informative and memorable tour packages and city tours, at very competitive prices. Visit Moscow Tours are available not only in Moscow, but also in other cities: Saint Petersburg, Kazan, Suzdal and Sergiev Posad.  We also organise customised individual programs tailored just for you.

Our guests come in large groups, small private groups, as couples or as single travellers. We take care of and treat our guests with respect in a friendly and warm family environment. We show people our beautiful cities with passion and deep knowledge of their history, culture and traditions.

Our guides are extremely hospitable, helpful and well-informed. They are simply the best because only by providing the best services can we make the world fall in love with Russia. And we are very happy when our guests say that they will definitely come back to Russia and that they will tell all their friends how great Russia is! That is what inspires us to put even more dedication and hard work into our tours, knowing that what we do is positive and meaningful.

Our classic tours include tours of Moscow and Saint Petersburg, two main Russian cities.

Moscow is a big and busy  megalopolis and Russia’s capital city, where more than 12 million people live and work. Our capital city is happening place; it is mysterious, elegant, luxurious, fashionable, clean and bright, with its unique legends, traditions and events. It is with great pride that we show the Red Square and the Kremlin, our Underground and Tretyakovskaya Gallery, among other stunning attractions.

Saint Petersburg is our second capital,  the second largest city in the Russian Federation. This wonderful city has a strong and lively aristocratic spirit, uniquely Russian royal architecture, magnificent museums and theatres. Saint Petersburg bears the royal heritage of Russia, which can be felt in its air, its streets, parks, monuments, museums and citizens.  In Saint Petersburg tours, we will take you to the Hermitage, Peter and Paul Fortress, Faberge Museum and Orthodox Cathedrals. We’re sure you will love it!

If you have a few more days to spare, venture into the dreamy Russian countryside in Suzdal or Sergiev Posad. Suzdal is a small town with a population of about ten thousand people, situated on less than 15 square kilometres. This tiny area is home to 53 historic cathedrals, five monasteries and a kremlin. Church domes are visible like mushrooms from anywhere and everywhere in the town like in a fairy tale. No wonder Suzdal is called the ‘Town Museum”.  It is definitely worth visiting!

Just try any of Visit Moscow Tours’ tour packages or any individual city tour, and we promise that you will want to come back to Russia again.  Russia is huge with countless amazing places to visit. There are so many unique experiences to be had and energies to be felt that one tour is definitely not enough to explore this vast land. It is also a very safe destination to travel, and we have a tradition of warm hospitality. Our people adore and take care of visitors as our own guests, and even if they do not know your language very well, they still try to be helpful and hospitable.

Our guides will show you the most interesting attractions and historical places, taking you on a journey to the past to enjoy stories of medieval times, the Romanov monarchy, the Soviet Era. And of course, we will show you the contemporary life of our country through authentic local experiences.

We look forward to meeting you soon!
