WOW” incentives property in Europe comes to Sydney

“WOW” is the only word The Mole can think of to describe the properties and incentive opportunities that Geraldine Hunt, Allied Europe’s Australian Director of Sales showed off at the Observatory Hotel, Sydney on Tuesday at the Sydney Allied Europe Workshop.

Allied Europe, a leader in incentives, offering some of the most stylish and stunning incentive locations globally (and what else would you expect from someone as stylish as Geraldine), invited incentive house management from Sydney and New Zealand to the workshops today at the Observatory. 

European guests at the workshop included Virtuoso Travel Agents, as Allied Travel are agents for Virtuoso in France and Monaco, Jim Hensley the President of Allied Europe who flew in from Paris – the location of Allied Europe’s head office, Sean Reeves from Allied UK and Maurizio Leoni from Allied Italy.

Highlight of the workshop and responsible for the “WOW” factor was the Director of Relais Borgo Scopeto, a stunning Italian property, 22 kms outside Sienna, 4 stars and 60 rooms, is actually owned by Allied Europe and just perfect for incentive groups and product launches.  For us normal travelers, the property will also be available to the FIT market through niche wholesalers!  

We have managed to obtain some photographs of this stunning, classic, Italian property, but The Mole suggests that you have a look at http://www.borgoscopeto.com and then actually go there! 

Jim Hensley, President of Allied Europe said, “Australia is an important and growing market for Allied Europe and this year has seen a resurgence in long haul travel”.  He added, “properties such as Relais Borgo Scopeto are excellent examples of the first class properties we have on offer in stunning locations and the perfect incentive destinations”.   

Along with Relais Borgo Scopeto, which can trace its history back to the year 1000, Allied has a distinguished pedigree – not quite as long as Relais Borgo Scopeto, having been established in 1964 by Guy Abecassis, one of the founding fathers of the incentive industry in France.  

Allied has offices in Paris, Monaco, Biarritz, Barcelona, Florence and London and is considered to be Europe’s Premier Destination Management Company, specialising in Incentive Travel, Corporate Conferences, Seminars, Congresses and Product Launches throughout Europe.  

Jim Hensley added, “we have having been in the business for more than 40 years and have the experience to give our clients the best value for their money in every area of our business”.  “We cannot separate one area from the others since they are all integrated and part of the full service picture.”  “Our services may not be the least expensive but we have remained competitive in the marketplace and we guarantee the highest quality of service along with the best product available”. 

FYI – Allied Europe has been listed in Special Events Magazine as one of the top 25 DMC’s in the world pls go to www.specialevents.com
