Incentive travel ideas to suit all tastes

Here are a few ideas for incentive trips organized by our agency, in France and abroad, to suit all tastes:

What is an incentive trip?

An incentive trip is a form of corporate travel designed to reward, motivate and unite employees.Incentives are defined as a set of measures designed to stimulate team commitment, through non-monetary rewards such as incentive trips.

Unlike an incentive seminar, which is often more institutional, or a one-off team-building event, an incentive stay offers an immersive, unifying break. It combines discovery, relaxation, original activities and collective adventure.

We can organize an incentive trip:

  • at the end of the year to celebrate a collective success,

  • after a sales challenge or product launch,

  • to mark an important corporate event,

  • or simply to thank and stimulate your teams.

It's an effective way of combining performance and recognition, and instilling a lasting team spirit.

The objectives of an incentive trip

The objectives of an incentive trip are human, managerial and strategic. Here's what this type of approach can achieve:

  • Retaining talent and reducing turnover

  • Motivating employees around a common goal

  • Strengthen the cohesion of your teams

  • Rewarding the best

  • Creating a positive collective dynamic

  • Get to know your colleagues better in an informal setting

In short, it's an effective and rewarding way of aligning your corporate challenges with the human aspirations of your employees. A well-designed reward trip becomes a management tool in its own right.

What are the advantages of an incentive trip?

There are many advantages to an incentive trip for a company. First and foremost, it strengthens team cohesion by getting away from the usual framework. This type of trip encourages exchanges, communication and solidarity between colleagues. It's also a powerful stimulus: it motivates employees to achieve their objectives, thanks to a rewarding incentive.
What's more, an incentive trip gives you the opportunity to get to know your colleagues better in a relaxed setting, which improves the working atmosphere on your return. Last but not least, it helps federate teams around corporate values and motivates employees over the long term.

There are several types of incentive trips, adapted to your objectives and your corporate culture.
Here are the most common formats:

  • Reward travel: luxury, comfort and exclusivity to thank your top performers

  • Adventure incentive breaks: nature, challenge, sport to boost motivation

  • Corporate incentives: themed events linked to your products or key messages

  • Classic company trips: short formats to boost team spirit

  • Incentive travel international: a total change of scenery to make a lasting impression
    These event solutions can all be customized to suit the size of the group, the business sector and specific requirements.

Several tools and indicators can be used to measure the impact of an incentive trip. The aim is to assess the success of the project in terms of human and professional results.

Here are a few concrete suggestions:

  • Hot and cold satisfaction questionnaires

  • Post-stayteam effectiveness analysis (cohesion, performance)

  • Changes in HR indicators: lower turnover, greater commitment

  • Identification of new internal dynamics (mutual aid, creativity)

  • Return on investment via pre-defined KPIs
