One of the things that amazes me about Hvar is just how much goes on without people knowing about it. Hvar is often called a celebrity island, but there are more celebrities visiting who nobody hears about than make the news. Hidden bays, isolated hillsides, the island is so many different things to so many different people – it is really fascinating.
And then you have the luxury and truly professional tourism providers, who take the potential of Hvar tourism very much to the next level. Quietly, unobtrusively, effectively. Consider the scene.
“An IT company celebrated its 20th anniversary, inviting its employees from the Netherlands, Belgium and Dutch Caribbean to celebrate their success in Croatia. Intours DMC designed à la carte incentive program for 650 guests, one of the largest incentive groups ever on Hvar Island.”
This was in early May last year, a time of winter ferry connections, and a time when the island was not yet in full tourism mode. Just how to create a special corporate birthday party for 650 international guests. In one of the most impressive videos I have ever seen about Hvar, this is how it is done by the professionals – a stunning partnership between Intours DMC and Suncani Hvar Hotels, a partnership that has worked very effectively for years. Remember the Renaissance Dinner of 2012, with some fat blogger leading the way in tights?
That was then but what took place last May was on an altogether different level.
A truly shining example of what Hvar can achieve with the right approach, and if you are thinking of hosting a corporate event in Croatia, and have doubts that the island of Hvar can deliver watch this!
Bravo to all involved!
