North America:
The United States and Canada represent close to 40% of our destination projects. Most of our clientele for this area come from Western Europe, Central Asia and the Middle East. North America is often seen as an intimidating destination for many. Language and cultural barriers make companies apprehensive about traveling to America with a small group, and their apprehension is even bigger with a large group of participants.
Our clients are relieved when we start collaborating with them on this destination. First, we have team members who speak their language, and getting all the information necessary to your project in French or in Arabic makes the planning smoother. Second, we are based in the US and have organized close to a hundred projects in the US and Canada. Finally, our clients feel better about having at least one of our team member present with their group when they land. It really makes the difference for them.
South America:
Our team counts Latin American members who have an extensive knowledge of the South American destinations. Thanks to their efforts we have always been able to come up with original programs in the safest areas.
Europe:
Many of our team members are originally from Western Europe. They are well traveled and can come up with several options to fulfill one need. The clients interested in the European destinations are usually from the US, Central Asia, the Middle East and Africa to a lesser extent.
Here too, cultural barriers can be a tremendous challenge to the success of a destination management project. Our North American clients are accustomed to certain standards in their home countries that are not always the norm in Europe. Our attention to these details along with careful briefing to our service providers helped us make European destinations very enjoyable for our clients.
Africa:
Certain destinations in Africa are really popular and keep drawing interest among our clients in Europe and America such as Morocco, Kenya, South Africa and a number of others. One of our team member is originally from North Africa, speaks fluent Arabic, and traveled to most Arabic speaking countries. We also have a strategic partner in South Africa with whom we have organized several successful projects.
Asia:
Asia has different parts. Certain destinations such as Dubai and Abu Dhabi are still very popular among our American and European clients. Our Arabic speaking team member has always been able to offer thrilling experiences on these destinations. For East Asia, we are solicited mostly by clients from North Africa, the Middle East and to a lesser extent Europe. Our team members have experience with China, Japan, India, Malaysia and Indonesia.
Oceania:
We have two strategic partners in Australia and New Zealand with whom we have collaborated on several occasions. Our clients for this destination are usually from North Africa and the Middle East.
