The Acropolis: Host a Conference Amidst Ancient History
For planners looking to add a touch of historical grandeur to their events, there is no better backdrop than Athens, home to the legendary Acropolis. Picture your attendees being greeted by stunning views of the Parthenon during a rooftop gala or enjoying a high-level executive meeting just steps away from some of the world’s most significant monuments.
- The Acropolis Museum: Imagine hosting an exclusive dinner or reception at the Acropolis Museum, with the illuminated Parthenon serving as your event’s backdrop. Not only does this venue offer a unique experience, but it also provides a seamless blend of modern design and ancient artifacts, giving your attendees an unforgettable cultural journey.
- Historical Tours: Add a private tour of the Acropolis and nearby historical sites, such as the Temple of Olympian Zeus or the Ancient Agora, for a break in the agenda that immerses attendees in Greece’s rich history.
- Rooftop Venues: Athens is full of chic rooftop venues that offer panoramic views of the Acropolis and the city’s skyline. Host a VIP cocktail reception or team dinner at one of these venues to impress guests with both the scenery and the Greek hospitality.
Why Athens Works for Corporate Events:
- Proximity to historic landmarks offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to merge business with history.
- State-of-the-art conference venues and luxury hotels provide modern conveniences and cutting-edge technology while still offering proximity to the city’s ancient treasures.
The Greek Islands: Incentive Travel Like No Other
The allure of the Greek islands is undeniable, making them the ideal destination for incentive travel programs. Imagine rewarding your top performers with a luxurious escape to the iconic islands of Santorini, Mykonos, or Crete, where crystal-clear waters, whitewashed villages, and luxury resorts set the stage for both adventure and relaxation.
- Santorini: Known for its iconic blue-domed churches and mesmerizing sunsets, Santorini is perfect for groups looking to unwind in five-star resorts perched on volcanic cliffs. Your guests can enjoy activities like catamaran cruises, wine tastings, and private villa stays—all while soaking in the breathtaking views of the Caldera.
- Mykonos: Famous for its vibrant nightlife, luxury beach clubs, and chic boutiques, Mykonos offers the perfect mix of fun and relaxation. Treat your guests to exclusive yacht tours around the island, private parties at world-class venues, or a guided tour of nearby Delos, one of Greece’s most important archaeological sites.
- Crete: As Greece’s largest island, Crete is a destination that caters to every kind of traveler. Incentive programs here can include everything from luxury spa retreats to cultural tours of ancient Minoan palaces. Conceptours can arrange for your guests to explore Crete’s charming villages, visit local olive oil farms, and enjoy dinners at Michelin-starred restaurants.
