Adding aspirational value

Travel is a great way to bring people together. An outbound incentive team activity creates a conducive environment to the team to discover a new destination, learn more about its culture and heritage and engage in activities specific to the destination. Adding an aspirational value, it motivates individual employees/dealers to work harder to earn a voyage of this sort. An outbound team incentive creates a well deserved break from routine, and allows many opportunities for enhanced interactions with other members of the team and creates greater synergies.

A Theme Park on Bordeaux wine

Synonymous with fine wine, Bordeaux invites you to plan an interesting incentive discovery of all things wine! A recent addition to Bordeaux's iconic landmarks, the Cité du Vin (inaugurated June 2016) is a fine melange of wine and culture. Created in the form of a knotted grapevine, this structure rooted in a glass base reflecting the Garonne river, invites you to embark upon a wine voyage across time and space. Visiting groups can enjoy a private tour of this immense structure that houses 10 floors with a selection of different themes showcasing wine. Indulge in wine tasting, participate in their wine discovery workshops or indulge in a meal at its panoramic restaurant in this shrine dedicated to wine!
