Culinary experiences that fuse flavour and culture
Revolving around wellness, a trend in the world of incentive activities – that we mentioned in another post – are food experiences. Gastronomy and wellness go hand in hand, with the key to some people’s happiness being the stomach. In the Costa del Sol, the birthplace of bienmesabe, ajoblanco, sopas perotas and other delights, you will find options for all tastes when it comes to cuisine. From foodie tours to group cooking workshops, there are plenty of ways to explore the flavours of the province of Malaga in your incentive activities.
The wonderful world of wine and olive oil mills
Incentive trips for companies will take you on an exploration of some of the most characterful wineries in the province. It’ll be an absolutely sensational experience, you can be sure of that. Another take on the more classic winery visit is a trip to an almazara, the traditional olive oil mills that are mostly located in the inland. A number of the many wineries populating the towns and villages of the province of Malaga open their doors to visitors, teaching you about the production process for quality wines made from local grape varieties - which have earned themselves Designation of Origin status - and giving you the opportunity to taste the vintages too.
Caving, an activity that will bring your team closer together
The province’s unique orography makes it a particularly rich and diverse part of the world. The caves sprinkled around the inland of the province are proof of this. If you’re looking for an original incentive activity, we’ve got a great idea: an afternoon of caving with your group.
Not only does caving get your adrenaline pumping, feeling excited about the unknown and taking on the challenges of the adventure sport, it also teaches your colleagues that they need to trust each other. The perfect way to build stronger bonds. Cueva del Gato, Cueva del Hundidero and Cueva del Tesoro are some of the many caves located in the Costa del Sol. Still got doubts about the caving potential of the province? Don’t: Ronda was the World Caving Capital in 2020.
Water sports, something for everyone
Some consider water sports to be almost a religion in the province of Malaga. The weather and the beaches lend the destination to all sorts of water sports, with pleasure boats and adventure sports the order of the day. Can you think of anything more appealing for a unique and elegant business trip? You can charter a boat and sail along the coast with all your team in addition to going kayaking, paddle boarding at the beach and snorkelling in designated areas.
Horse rides and shows to admire the majesty of the Andalusian horse
If you’re wondering which companies incentive trips are for, the answer is all of them. The diversity of the incentive activities for companies on offer in the Costa del Sol is so extensive that you are sure to find something to your liking. If you’re looking for something quintessentially malagueño, there’s horse riding and horse shows featuring the Andalusian horse.
