Though it might seem like it is worlds away concerning its distance from the United States, New Zealand has become more popular with destination travelers and adventurers who wish to travel the globe. However, when one begins traveling a trip to New Zealand, the monetary aspects of making such a dream vacation work most likely becomes overwhelming. For many, traveling to “the land down under” is not financially feasible. Fortunately, many companies, due to the popularity and employee preference of having a corporate travel incentive program in place rather than accepting a money bonus make traveling to such a faraway land a reality. Employee motivation programs, more likely known as employee incentive programs have grown so popular recently because it takes the groundwork and financial responsibility of coordinating a meticulous trip as it would be to plan a trip to New Zealand. In addition, finding the right time to take off from work, as well as getting enough vacation time can prove difficult, but having your company pay for the entire trip (which often includes spouse and perhaps children) makes it easier.
Therefore, if you are the lucky recipient of an all-expense paid vacation through an employee incentive program, and “down under” is your desired choice, then you must visit the South Island of New Zealand. Though the North Island is more populated and features more city dweller appeal, the South Island is by far the more scenic and adventurous, and it is the larger of the two islands. When we say you can do, quite literally, anything you want outdoors on the South Island, we mean it. The island consists of mountains, lakes, rivers, beaches, vineyards, trails, and even Hobbits (well, their homes, at least). The climate on the South Island is temperate; matching the season you wish to embark on your trip, with only certain areas of the island hitting extreme highs or lows.
Getting back to what one can enjoy on the island, here is a list: skiing, surfing, nature hikes, camping, boating, fishing, any beach activity you can imagine, kayaking, rock climbing, sky diving, wine tasting in vineyards, visiting nature and wild life preserves, walking and/or hiking trails—the list goes on. It would be easier for you to visit South Island, and either explain or make a list of what you could not do while on your sojourn (though we imagine that list would be blank).
South Island, New Zealand is an outdoor adventurer’s dream come true. Take advantage of your company’s corporate travel incentive program, and make your way to the most adventurous place in the world. Do not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Incentive Travel Destination: Zermatt, Switzerland
/in Featured DestinationsFor those who have been fortunate to vacation and ski in Zermatt, Switzerland, many will say one would be hard pressed to find a better place in the world to ski—not only because of the town and the resorts, but also because of the beautiful mountainous terrain and the excellent “powder” (what ski aficionados call the snowfall during the ski seasons). If you were to research the city of Zermatt online, it would only take you a few minutes to realize the beauty of the town, as well as the numerous winter and summer activities that can be enjoyed. The architecture is unmistakably of European influence, and the sparse population gives Zermatt a feel of a quaint, yet beautiful little town—making for the perfect getaway.
For those who work for a company that offers employee incentive programs, a dream vacation to a place like Zermatt can easily become a reality. Corporate travel incentive programs give hard working employees the opportunity of a lifetime—to go on an all-expense paid vacation to a place in the world they might not be able to afford on their own. If you have constraints about when you can take time off and are worried you might miss the ski season, Zermatt is located in a high altitude region, meaning one can enjoy skiing year-round. This is one of several reasons why the city has become a mecca for avid skiers—the ability to ski or snowboard anytime of the year.
A vacation to a place such as Zermatt is what makes employee motivation programs so successful. After a week or two of spending time flying down slopes and enjoying other athletic or leisurely activities enlivens hard workers, which means they come back refreshed, energized, and ready to resume their duties. In addition, they stay motivated to make sure they never miss the wonderful opportunity to embark on an incredible vacation destination in the future.
Incentive Travel Destination: Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe
/in Featured DestinationsThere are places in this world that feature such natural marvels, the creation of which cannot be explained. These natural phenomena have been dubbed wonders, of which there are seven natural wonders. These are places that offer a rare and truly life-changing experience; a scenic wonder and aesthetic marvel that cannot be rivaled by anything else similar to its kind. Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe is once such natural marvel and one of the seven natural wonders of the world. Based on certain dimensions, Victoria Falls is considered the largest waterfall in the world. Finding a way to plan a trip centered on experiencing this great waterfall would certainly be an adventure you will never forget.
Right now, you might be thinking how wonderful it would be to see the Victoria Falls, but realistically, the logistics of a trip to Zimbabwe and financing the trip might not be in your favor. However, if you are fortunate enough to work for a company that offers employee motivation programs in the form of an employee incentive travel program, a vacation to Zimbabwe to see the falls may not be that farfetched. Though monetary bonuses at the end of a year for reaching a quota, or simply for a job well done is pleasing and appealing, more workers are lobbying for and choosing corporate travel incentives over the dollar. Because of the daily grind of a workweek that is repeated fifty-two times each year, hard workers are valuing an expenses paid trip to an incredible destination location over extra money to recuperate, relax and reboot.
While visiting the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, you should partake in the numerous safari excursions offered, some of which include trekking on elephant! You can also enjoy white water rafting, bungee jumping, kayaking, even house boating, to name merely a few of the countless tours and adventures on which you can partake. Naturally, you can stay in one of the fabulous resorts and get in a few rounds of golf, or if you wish to experience more of the outdoors, you can choose to camp or stay in one of the cottages or live-in tiki huts. Clearly, you can expect an incredible vacation that will not only involve viewing one of the Seven Wonders of the World, but countless other fun and exciting activities.
Work hard to ensure you earn your company’s employee incentive travel program so you do not miss the opportunity to travel to a locale as breathtaking as Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.
