Venue Location
cover story
Nihaluddin, Vice-President, MICE & Outbound Travel, Trailblazers, shares his opinion, “The location of the venue should be able to offer something for everyone. There should be activities for all, attendees and spouses alike. Thus, proximity of the venue to recreational activities is definitely researched while narrowing down the options. Also, to make the stay simpler for our clients, we prefer more travel friendly destinations especially when using the transportation network, a well linked city, signages, maps and announcements in English, subway systems to avoid areas of traffic congestion, and taxis with English speaking drivers.”
Smriti Maggon, Director Sales & marketing, DeTours “The presence of such services, like guided tours, golf courses and a spa and options for a myriad of indoor and outdoor activities, serve as an asset for the venue.”
