When an international financial company chose Iceland as the location of their incentive travel program, Iceland Congress embraced the opportunity to showcase the country as an extraordinary incentive destination. Over 400 people from more than 25 countries experienced Iceland’s incredible landscape, challenging activities, cuisine prepared by award-winning chefs and unique culture. Participants left the experience with new-found relationships and memories that will last a lifetime.
The Creative Approach
With the theme, “On Top of the World,” Iceland Congress knew that the event had to be extraordinary and set out to create a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the moment guests arrived in Reykjavik, they had the sense that the program was created especially for them, adding to the exclusive nature of the event.
The experience was among other things, having fun with real vikings, drive around the wilderness including crossing rivers in modified 4×4 super jeeps, horseback riding, ATV quad bikes, archery and mountain hiking
On short notice, Iceland Congress also negotiated a buy out for the same night on three of the best and most popular restaurants in Reykjavik. These are evidence of the magnitude that the program had on the region and has helped to set a higher standard for future incentive trips to Iceland.
Effectiveness and Results
The strong program in Iceland has already had direct impact on the qualification numbers for the next year program with an increase in sales figures immediately following the program. In a post-event survey, participants rated the program 4.73 out of 5.
