Why Vosant Meetings & Travel?

At our core, we are a Marketing and Travel services company focused on enhancing your ability to delivery meaningful experiences, face to face + virtually.

The name Vosant was inspired by the French "Vos Attentes" meaning Your Expectations.  ​​Just like your expectations, the purpose of your journey generally dictates your location, budget and dates of travel.   It is our goal, to find the best solutions that align with your reasons for movement.

After a personal conversation about your desired experience and expectations, Vosant Meetings & Travel will source service providers, destinations and/or venues based on your preferences.   
​Hotels can be beautiful pieces of art,  living reminders of history or just a relaxing place to call Home.  Let us help you discover the ideal property to complement the purpose of your gathering.

Sustainability

Practices that protect the planet, natives and locals are important values to Vosant Meetings & Travel.  We enjoy working with our clients to highlight environmentally sustainable travel offerings including alternatives to flying and focusing on unique experiences in our client's backyard. 

No matter how short your journey is, we strongly suggest budgeting funds for donation to an organization working to make travel cleaner and reduce the impacts of climate change. Curious about your upcoming travel plan's impact on the globe?  Visit the ICAO Carbon Emissions Calculator.
