An unlikely candidate for MICE, Wildlife Reserves Singapore is introducing new products that can offer small MICE groups an exclusive experience at four of its attractions, namely Jurong Bird Park, Night Safari, River Safari and the Singapore Zoo.
Indian MICE groups can now explore an entirely new way to conduct their events in Singapore. The four well-known attractions in the city – Jurong Bird Park, Night Safari, River Safari and Singapore Zoo – are a hit with families. But did you know that they also offer MICE facilities, limited but exclusive experiences for small groups.
Mike Barclay, Group CEO, Wildlife Reserve Sanctuary (WRS), who was in Mumbai recently to host a dinner and cocktail event for its top partners in India and to sign an MoU with Thomas Cook, had many announcements to make. He said, “We have associated with Thomas Cook India to offer their customers our world-class zoological parks. These parks can offer amazing wildlife experiences to exclusive MICE groups.
Currently, the traffic coming into our parks is a lot of groups and families, but some MICE activities as well. MICE can be done in many ways here. It can be part of an experience or an exclusive visit. We also have some rather special venues for the MICE market.” One of them is located in the heart of the Night Safari which has a beautiful tepee tent that serves delicious, three-course, high-end meal for a group of up to 45-50 guests. They can have their own private tour and have a great dinner. WRS can organise such quiet, versatile experiences for MICE groups.
