inVOYAGER EC Meetings Malta DMC shares six of the best incentive experiences to suit a range of groups…

 

Nature calling

Past the magnificent harbours and architectural monuments, the west coast of Malta is home to steep cliffs, picturesque beaches, tucked away lemon and olive groves, vineyards, and scattered farmhouses.

Popular for sea related activities, hiking, biking, and climbing the area offers a perfect escape into nature. In the small countryside village of Dingli, an enthusiastic family of local farmers is offering groups the possibility to experience tranquil nature and learn something new.  Activities are offered in idyllic countryside and range from farm-to-fork cooking classes, natural soap making to bee–keeping workshops, harvesting and local craft activities.  

For those just looking for a unique outdoor venue, the family-run lemon grove is tucked away in nature and offers finest homegrown, organic produce and homemade Maltese specialties for farm-to-fork lunches and dinners.

CSR experience

In 2011 the much-loved colourful vintage buses of Malta were replaced by a modern public transportation fleet. Mainly of British manufacture, each bus was truly unique with many models dating back to the 1950’s. Today many of the buses have been restored and have become popular for exclusive transfers and visits of the island.

As part of a CSR activity, groups have the possibility to restore a traditional Maltese bus. The activity takes place at a former stone quarry, known as Limestone Heritage with a large space available to paint and re-decorate the interior and exterior of the bus.

Accompanied by a team of restoration professionals, the activity is well prepared in advance and offered to teams of up to 50. Post event the client can choose to either sell the bus and donate the money to a charity of choice, or donate the bus directly to a local museum, where the story of the Maltese bus will live on for future generations to enjoy.

 

Foodie tour

Streets filled with myths, stories, people, traditions and cultural heritage, Valletta has been a maritime hub for centuries and the essence of baroque pride, an upcoming hotspot of the Mediterranean; a city that shines as never before. The fortified city is UNESCO World Heritage Site and European Capital of Culture.

They say the way to a person’s heart is through their stomach. Walking through the charming streets of Valletta, you will fall in love with this amazing city while sampling typical local food. This special street food tour tells the story of Malta’s unique cuisine and perfectly blends great food with history and culture.

Cultural discovery

Behind the seemingly impenetrable thick walls, flanking Malta’s Grand Harbour, lies a hidden gem known as the Three Cities.

Explore this gorgeous open-air museum, while cruising around in GPS-guided and eco-friendly vehicles. The selfie feature is great fun and commentary in the language of your choice is available.

Add an optional cruise to The Three Cities, passing by Malta’s impressive Grand Harbour and many ancient fortifications on board a colourful, traditional fishing boat, called a Luzzu.

 

Outdoor adventures in Gozo

Discover a small, tranquil, almost mythical island with deep valleys, rugged cliffs, crystal clear seas and beautiful beaches. Passing by beautiful tucked-away coves, caves and beaches high speed powerboats arrive on the island of Gozo in just 30 minutes.

Colourful and new self-drive cars and e-jeeps will take participants on a picturesque discovery of the island and to remote locations where various activities are offered - zipline across the sea, abseil down a steep cliff and freefall over the Med.

Discover Gozo’s tucked away caves with snorkelling activities, kayaks, and SUPs.  Enjoy an exclusive picnic in nature with the freshest of produce and typical culinary delights of the island. On the way back to Malta ‘Bond’ waiters descend from the cliffs of Comino, offering surprise champagne on board the boats.

 

Battle at Sea

Pirates versus Knights is a fun and innovative teambuilding activity for incentive groups. Two teams will face the Battle at Sea, each on their own wooden gullet.

Whilst cruising towards the battle location, the teams will perform various tasks on board (Flag of Honour, Knot, a Quiz, and a Wooden Puzzle). Depending on the number of points gained whilst solving the various tasks, the knights and pirates will be able to “purchase” water pistols, water cannons, buckets and other equipment needed to build targets for their boat.

Targets will be placed around the vessel. Once the horn has been signalled, the battle will begin. The aim of the battle at sea is to “sink” the opponent’s vessel by destroying all the water-soluble targets.
