Just as DSBW analysts predicted a month ago, in July 2014 the demand for excursion tours to Europe grew almost 19% as compared to June. At the same time, prices for excursion tours have dropped a little, about 6%. These are the results of Excursion Tour Index EXDEX for July 2014, which was compiled by the DSBW analysts.
Travel Russian News and online travel agency Pososhok.ru are continuing their collaboration "Leaders of customer demand". Below are the top 20 outsider destinations of the current summer season, which have suffered the biggest setbacks in regard to the tourist flow. The rating has been compiled based on the sales of Pososhok.ru during the period from March to July of 2014.
The DSBW experts expect the demand to increase a little in July. According to the forecast, it will constitute about 20-23 thousand queries in various search engines.
Superjob.ru has organized a poll among Russian citizens over 18 years old. The respondents were to answer the following question: ‘If for your holiday you had to choose between Sochi and Crimea, which would you choose?’
Today, like never before, Crimea has found itself in the global and Russian media spotlight. Travel Russian News magazine keeps its finger on the pulse and delivers the latest news about peninsula’s tourism and the industry’s development prospects and nuances as it is ‘breaking in’ the new Russian region. In this regard, we have initiated a National poll, which was conducted by our partner Superjob.ru. We present to you the poll’s results. Will Russians go to Crimea after all?
Demand for excursion tours to Europe is expected to drop 25.62% in April. Such is the forecast compiled by DSBW’s analysts based on the Excursion Tour Index EXDEX for March of 2014. According to the experts’ findings, the number of search queries for excursion tours to Europe in various online booking systems will amount to 20,172 in April, as opposed to 27,121 in this year’s March.
Travel Russian News magazine and Superjob.ru are ready to present the results of another joint research aimed at determining the attitude of Russians to a wide-spread tour operator service – early booking, and also at finding out which countries are often booked in advance.
Tour operator DSBW presents the Index of Guided Tours ‘EXDEX’ for January 2014 and its forecast for February 2014. We’d like to draw your attention to the fact that EXDEX consists of two indicators – Index of demand for guided tours EXDEX-D and price index of guided tours EXDEX-P.
How many clients and how much profits do tour operators lose due to the fact that potential customers cannot find the information they need on the site? And how many clients are there who chose an offer but were unable to buy it online? Statistically, three quarters of site visitors experience problems after they have already chosen a tour/ticket/hotel, in other words – at the last stage of buying/booking. Having got lost, they leave the site. So what are the ways to keep the existing clients, prolong their stay on the site and make the web page of a tour operator that much more efficient?..
Independent online magazine Travel Russian News, website Superjob.ru and marketing communications agency PR2POINT are proud to present, as part of Travel Russian Awards, the “Rating of Russian Tour Operators – 2013”. The rating is based on a poll among Russian tourists which was conducted from November 20 to November 28 of 2013. Russians were offered a list of thirty largest Russian tour operators, from which they chose whom they believed to be the best. Among these companies were leaders of mass tourism and niche tour operators.
