Iceland incentives – a guide for planners

How to successfully plan an incentive in Iceland
Iceland incentives - a guide for planners

Iceland situated right beneath the Arctic Circle is somewhat perceived as a distant place. Almost unreal, Iceland sparkles our minds with impressions of mystic landscapes, vast glaciers and rumbling volcanoes. The land of fire and ice is an image, which soon appears. But what more do we know about this remote place? Or to ask in a better way, what more do we have to know when planning an incentive in Iceland for our valued customers?

Good planning is key for Iceland incentives
Iceland is huge compared to the number of inhabitants living in it. Each square kilometer counts for only 3.1 inhabitants. This compares with 229 inhabitants per square kilometer in Germany. Henry Kröher, managing director of Arctic Incentives in Iceland says: „As soon as you move out of the Greater Reykjavik area everything becomes remote. Logistics become key and decide between failure and success of your event.“

Factor in weather
The weather dimension is another key point and should be factored in right from the start of planning an incentive. With most of incentive groups searching for activities, planners need to know what activities are available in Iceland and which of them can be done during the time their incentive group intends to visit Iceland.
