From executive retreats to client appreciation events to 5k cruises from your favorite national 5k company, Abundant Journeys designs unique and befitting special events by land and at sea for your brand. We can even white-label your event keeping Abundant Journeys running, undetected in the background. For the professional office or small business, a corporate group travel event is usually designed to increase the companies bottom line. Whether it is introducing a new product line, rewarding your top sales people or taking your clients on a yoga retreat in Bali, the end result is the same - increased revenue, increased productivity for your business.

Our relationships with suppliers within the travel & hospitality industry give us leverage not readily available to the individual professional or small business owner. It allows us to be your advocate in an industry we thoroughly understand.

As a professional office or small business, your resources - human and financial - are typically limited to an extent. Whoever may handle the event planning function for your business is more than likely seeking creative ways to stretch the dollar... and their time.

Hence, the reason why outsourcing your destination event planning functions to Abundant Journeys is a logical choice. There are many components to take into consideration such as soft and hard expenditures, knowledge of destination, participant needs, vendor management and more. The event logistics usually require more than the one person in your company handling the event or the volunteers he or she is able to ‘scare up’ are able to adequately handle.

Abundant Journeys is poised and ready to assist with your next corporate event on land or at sea. Whether it is beginning to end of a few segments in the planning process, we are here to be your partners in success. With nearly two-decades in the industry, we have developed the contacts, the leverage, the know-how to produce a quality event for your professional office or small, privately-held firm.
