Our client was looking for an incentive programme that would enthuse and excite their telecommunications salesmen into maximising their performance during quarter 3 and 4. Their sales people were almost exclusively twenty-something males so the programme was devised with this fact firmly in mind.

An adventure and adrenaline fuelled January trip to Lapland was our solution.The first day saw all participants fly to Rovaniemi, Finish Lapland with welcome drinks and Survival kit fitting on arrival! An informal group dinner took place within the hotel allowing guests to mingle and speculate about what lay ahead over the following few days.

Following a traditional Scandinavian buffet breakfast, and a driving and safety briefing, each of the participants got hold of their own snowmobile for the journey across the Arctic wilderness, rivers, lakes and fells. The destination- a husky farm, where the mode of transport was changed to dog and sleigh. An outdoor lunch was taken beside a roaring fire. On return to Rovaniemi the group ate dinner at the excellent Restaurant Gaisaa.

Day 2 provided a host of activity options from tobogganing to cross country skiing to braving a traditional Finnish sauna. The evening saw a trip into the forest, with nothing but snowmobile headlights to show the way, in search of the fabled Aurora Borealis. Dinner was taken at Villa Marina a log-built farmhouse on the shores of the Ounasjoki River.
