About Travel Agenda

TravelAgenda@ASA – Your Dedicated Central and Eastern Europe Travel Specialist

Originally founded in 2005 by Richard Blake in London, Travel Agenda quickly established itself as a trusted provider for travellers from Central and Eastern Europe visiting the United Kingdom and Ireland. With consistent growth and the addition of new key source markets, the company expanded operations by opening an office in Budapest, introducing travel products across Central Europe.

Focusing primarily on group travel, Travel Agenda became recognised as a comprehensive one-stop solution, offering accommodation, transportation, cultural experiences, guided tours, and meal arrangements – all under one roof.

A Strategic Partnership with ASA

Following the global disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Richard Blake realigned the brand’s strategy and initiated a new chapter by partnering with ASA. This move integrated Travel Agenda into the ASA family, rebranding the business as TravelAgenda@ASA.

In the two years since international borders reopened, TravelAgenda@ASA has solidified its position within ASA’s structure. The brand continues to thrive, drawing on its proven history while embracing new opportunities for growth.

The integration into ASA’s Tourplan NX system has unlocked access to an extensive range of directly contracted services, allowing for enhanced flexibility, competitive pricing, and seamless service delivery. With Richard Blake remaining actively involved in the business, TravelAgenda@ASA continues to expand its offering to both group and FIT (Free Independent Traveller) clients.

Backed by a dedicated in-house operations team, TravelAgenda@ASA delivers expert support, customised itineraries, and dependable service. Whether arranging educational tours, incentive programmes, leisure groups, or bespoke FIT travel experiences, the team is committed to creating the perfect travel agenda for every client.

"Our long-term partnership with Angela Shanley Associates is based on - and it is supported by - just a few points: we feel 100% secure with offers we get; we enjoy 100% friendly service and get 100% accurate bills. It is not "we get what we pay for', but "they know what is worth paying for", so we save lots of time and paperwork of unnecessary searches. So simple!"

"I have worked with ASA over 25 years. I really appreciate the fact that they pay attention to all the small details, they never say no and are always willing to help and to make sure that all the clients are happy. Personal, highly professional attention. I have a special large group that arrives in London every year (100 pax) to the same hotel, same dates. I must admit that if it was not Anak coming with his big smile to meet me and help with the group, it would not be the same!"
