“As someone who is not, and will never be, an event manager you had to walk me through the process, and I appreciate your patience. David said the Friday activities (for example) were the single best day he had ever had on one of these staff incentive weekends, and he has seen a few.”

"I have worked with Vic and Dave and the team from HOT for over 15 years, not only as a guest on media incentive trips but I also have them arranging our annual franchise conference and corporate travel. There is no other company that I would trust in delivering our conference wherever in the world we may choose. When we travel with the team on their trips, they know all our specific requirements from seating on the aircraft, to making sure there is a fishing boat for us and cold beer. Vic is great fun and always professional being available all hours for anything that may arise."
