Incentives

As you know, your employees are the lifeblood of your business. In order to reward and retain the type of people your business needs to grow, you need to give them a reason to work for you. That’s where our incentive travel programme comes in.

With over 13 years of experience in Destination Management, we specialize in providing small- to mid-sized companies with incentive travel programmes in Southern Africa and the Indian Ocean Islands. We always tailor every programme to your unique budget, group size, corporate objectives and preferences. Our incentive travel programmes are an excellent way to:

· Boost sales
· Develop sales strategy
· Reward and recognise top achievers in a way that is memorable and related to strategic objectives
· Host top clients
· Boost group morale and build team effectiveness

At Cedarberg Travel, we handpick all hotels and game lodges with great care and take particular care to add unique personal touches that turn a great incentive into an extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime event. From luxurious tours to adventurous African safaris, we tailormake the incentive to suit your needs.

Incentive Travel Ideas
Whether it’s helicopter flips over Table Mountain, whale watching by private boat or a gourmet picnic at a deserted sandy cove, we have endless ideas to create a truly memorable travel experience. South Africa lends itself to smaller incentive groups, but we also tailor-make programmes for larger incentive groups and sometime arrange incentives for couples.

The sheer beauty of South Africa’s landscape, people and culture is simply enchanting.  South Africa offers a world-class infrastructure, accommodation and meeting facilities combined with the excitement, passion and cultural diversity of Africa.

It is the juxtaposition of these contrasts which makes South Africa such an exhilarating incentive destination: cosmopolitan city life is followed by the raw wilderness of the bush; relaxing beach resorts can be mixed with adventurous pursuits in awe-inspiring scenery.

“ The itinerary was perfect, all the locations and accommodation was first class... I have travelled all over the world in the past 10 years but I have to say that South Africa has been the best for scenery, hospitality, climate and value for money” 
David Kislingbury, UK

Incentive Travel in Cape Town

Cape Town is most definitely one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Cradled by Table Mountain, it has immense charm and historical interest whilst its unique cultural blend makes for a cosmopolitan experience. Cape Town is also blessed with world-class hotels, enticing restaurants and good shopping. Our incentives, team-building and corporate events in the city take a myriad of forms – sometimes active, sometimes cultural, often indulgent and always exhilarating.

· Enjoy a candlelit dinner on a private yacht off Table Bay
· Cruise out to Robben Island
· Sampling African dishes or Africa learning drumming techniques at a music café
· Abseiling off Table Mountain – a mere 1000-metre drop!
· Whales and sharks – enjoy a full day of interacting with whales and sharks by boat. Includes the option of caged shark diving (no diving experience required).

The Garden Route

The Garden Route thoroughly deserves its reputation for enchanting beauty and is an ideal setting for adventurous incentive travel with several five class hotels to choose from.

Incentive Safaris

Safaris combine the excitement, passion and adventure of Africa and prove a unique motivator for Incentives and Corporate meetings. The Cedarberg team has a wide knowledge of safari options. The possibilities are extensive: from a fly-in safari to a remote, exclusive safari camp to a larger game lodge incorporating meeting facilities.

Safari camps vary dramatically in ambience and style. South Africa and Botswana have some of the finest game lodges in the world, complete with luxurious furnishings, delicious cuisine, extensive wine cellars and private plunge pools.. By contrast, in Zambia and Tanzania we generally offer smaller intimate safari camps. Our lodges and camps are chosen for their character, setting and superb guiding and tend to be smaller in size.

· Surprise bush lunch after a morning game walk
· Gala bush dinners with African drums and dancing
· Bushcraft activities – learning how to track the game, identify animals from their spore
· Special interest lectures (on a variety of wildlife subjects)

Incentives in Victoria Falls

So much to enjoy...for so many different tastes. This is the appeal of Victoria Falls - a vast curtain of surging water plunging 100 metres into the Zambezi Gorge below. After seeing the falls a host of other activities awaits you. Adrenaline seekers can head for the white water rafting, bungee jumping and microlight flights. More gentle pursuits include canoeing above the falls, languorous sundowner boat cruises, exciting tribal dance displays or elephant back safaris.All this is complemented by world-class accommodation and conference/meeting facilities. Some activities are only suitable for smaller group sizes.

· Elephant-back safaris
· Range of adventure activities for active incentives or team-building
· Gourmet lunch on Livingstone Island in the middle of the Zambezi River right above the Victoria Falls
