Beyond the Ballroom

Take your meetings beyond traditional ballrooms at destinations across Asia.

(1) For a touch of culture, choose unique venues such as museums, art galleries, or historic buildings.
(2) For rooftop experience, host a reception at a rooftop bar or sky-high restaurant in cities like Bangkok or Singapore, where participants can network while enjoying stunning city skyline views.
(3) If you prefer nature-inspired setting, consider a beachfront resort in Phuket or a forest villa in Chiang Mai, blending natural beauty with productive business discussions.

Thailand · Elephant Conservation Experience:

Leverage Singapore’s multicultural vibe by organizing a fusion cooking competition. Teams use ingredients from across Asia to create a unique dish - testing their creativity, cooperation, and teamwork.

China · Hutong Cultural Experience:

Dive into Chinese traditions in Beijing’s local hutongs: paint Peking Opera masks, learn calligraphy, try paper-cutting, make dumplings, or weave Chinese knots. These hands-on activities bring team members closer together while immersing them in local culture.

Let us know your goals, and we’ll tailor the perfect team building experience for your group!

Asia MICE & Incentive Travel FAQs

Which Asian destinations are most popular for MICE events?

Asia boasts several world-class MICE destinations. Cities like Singapore, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Seoul are perennial favorites due to their excellent infrastructure, international accessibility, and wide range of hotels and venues. Emerging destinations such as Bali, Kuala Lumpur, and Macau are also gaining popularity for their unique appeal and modern facilities. With Asia Odyssey Travel’s extensive local network, we can help you select the ideal city to match your event goals and team preferences.

What unique venues do you recommend for corporate events in Asia?

We specialize in securing unique venues that elevate corporate events beyond the typical ballroom. Some of our top recommendations include:

In Tokyo, Japan:

A traditional tea house with a private garden for a serene executive retreat, or an art gallery in Ginza for an elegant cocktail reception.

In Bangkok, Thailand:

A rooftop bar offering stunning panoramic city views for a networking event, or a private riverside villa for a unique welcome dinner.

In Singapore:

The futuristic Gardens by the Bay for a gala dinner under the Supertrees, or the National Museum of Singapore for a reception in a historic setting.

In Kyoto, Japan:

A renovated machiya (traditional townhouse) for an exclusive team workshop, or an ancient temple complex for a formal ceremony.

Pro Tip: Asia Odyssey Travel can help to visit the venue or request a virtual site inspection before booking.

Can you recommend some 5-star hotels with exceptional meeting facilities in top MICE cities like Singapore, Bangkok, or Tokyo?

Absolutely!

In Singapore, consider the Marina Bay Sands, Shangri-La Hotel, or Raffles Singapore, all renowned for their state-of-the-art meeting spaces and impeccable service. Bangkok offers icons like the Mandarin Oriental, The Siam, and the Grand Hyatt Erawan, each with flexible event venues and luxury amenities. In Tokyo, top choices include the Park Hyatt Tokyo, The Peninsula Tokyo, and the Conrad Tokyo, all offering sophisticated business facilities and stunning city views.

Asia Odyssey Travel can negotiate group rates and ensure a seamless experience at these world-class properties.

Can you suggest creative team-building activities that are unique to specific Asian cultures, like a martial arts workshop or a cooking challenge?

Certainly! Asia Odyssey Travel designs culturally immersive team-building experiences:

In Thailand or Vietnam, try a cooking competition led by local chefs.
In Japan, participate in a traditional tea ceremony or a samurai sword workshop.
In China, arrange a Taichi or calligraphy session.
In South Korea, enjoy a K-Pop dance class or Hanbok dress-up experience.These activities not only foster teamwork but also provide authentic cultural insight.

What is the best time of year to hold MICE events in Asia?

The best time depends on the specific destination and your event's goals. Generally, the ideal seasons are:

Northeast Asia (Japan, South Korea, parts of China): The spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) offer pleasant weather, vibrant foliage, and comfortable temperatures, making them perfect for outdoor activities.

Southeast Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore): The dry season from November to February is ideal, as the weather is cool and sunny with little to no rain. This is perfect for incentive trips with outdoor activities.

It’s best to avoid major public holidays like Chinese New Year (January/February) or Golden Week in Japan (late April/early May), as these periods see high travel demand and increased costs.

Can you organize airport transfers and local transportation for our group?

Yes, Asia Odyssey Travel provides comprehensive ground transportation services. We operate our own fleet in major MICE cities, offering a range of vehicles from luxury sedans to large coaches. Our experienced drivers ensure timely, safe, and comfortable transfers between airports, hotels, and venues, making your team’s journey seamless from start to finish.

Do hotels offer customized catering and menu options for events?

Most 5-star hotels in Asia are highly flexible with catering and can design bespoke menus for your event. Whether you require international cuisine, themed buffets, or accommodate special dietary requirements, Asia Odyssey Travel works closely with hotel chefs to ensure every meal is tailored to your group’s preferences and cultural needs.

How do we handle ground logistics, from airport transfers to on-site transportation, for a large group in a major Asian city?

Asia Odyssey Travel manages all logistics with precision.

Pre-Planning: We create a detailed transportation plan well in advance, including a schedule of all transfers, vehicle allocation, and contingency plans.
Dedicated On-Site Staff: For larger groups, we assign dedicated coordinators who are present at the airport, hotels, and event venues to manage all logistics in real-time.
Communication Protocols: We establish clear communication channels with your team, drivers, and venue staff to ensure everyone is on the same page.
Vehicle Fleet Management: We partner with trusted transportation providers to ensure a fleet of well-maintained vehicles, from minivans for small teams to full-sized coaches for large-scale events.

How can we design an incentive travel program that goes beyond sightseeing to truly motivate and reward our top performers?

We believe incentive travel should inspire and transform. Asia Odyssey Travel crafts custom programs that blend luxury, adventure, and authentic local experiences - think private hot spring stays in Japan, exclusive gala dinners in ancient palaces, or behind-the-scenes tours of tech giants like Alibaba. We focus on unique moments and meaningful recognition, elevating your team’s motivation and loyalty.

What kind of local entertainment and evening events can be arranged to make a gala dinner or reception truly memorable?

Asia Odyssey Travel offers a wide range of entertainment options: traditional performances (like Chinese opera, Balinese dance, or Japanese taiko drumming), modern acts (K-Pop shows, jazz bands, or DJs), and interactive experiences (calligraphy, lantern-making, or local fashion shows). We can also arrange celebrity appearances or themed parties to give your event that extra wow factor.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars North Xinjiang from Urumqi to Ili in 8 days

Cecilia planned our North Xinjiang 8-day experience. The experience was excellent. Although the trip was brief, my grassland experience was fulfilled. We visited DuShanZi, Naraty grassland, Karajun grassland, and Sayram Lake along the way. We had an amicable English speaking Tour guide from Urimqi. This was our second trip that was planned by Cecilia. I provided my dates and accommodation choices and she organised the trip for us. Both trips were memorable. For this trip, I asked for a mixture of hotel and grassland accommodations. The home stay and capsule cabin selections were delightful. I would recommend Cecilia to my colleagues and friends who might want to have individual customised tours in China.

If there was a rating on various…

If there was a rating on various parameters , we would without any hesitation give full marks to Asian odyssey on all counts . The efforts they take to plan the trip taking into consideration all your preferences is exemplary . Here I would like to make a special mention of Kristen ( our relationship manager ) who was not so patient in our planning ( answering all our queries so diligently and promptly ) , the costing of the trip etc . What was unique and praiseworthy was the constant hand holding by Kristen right thru the trip despite the fact that we had competent guides at all places . This gave us so much comfort . And now especially for us vegetarians who were scared by everyone that vegetarian food will be a challenge in China - the local guides under advise from Kristen ensured that we not only got our vegetarian food but one of the most delectable Chinese fare we have had so far . And I would like to end by also mentioning the small gestures, accommodating last minute requests ( often complimentary ) was so appreciable . Our next trip anywhere in Asia is certainly going to be with Asian Odyssey
