Itinerary planning
A day-by-day plan balancing sessions, free time, activities and meals, shared with every guest before departure.
We plan meetings, incentive trips, conferences and exhibitions for companies, working from Pune. Itinerary, stay, travel coordination, sessions and the gala night sit in one plan with one point of contact.
MICE stands for Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions: the events a company runs to align its people, reward its performers and meet its market. For MICE India programmes, the hard part is rarely the venue. It is keeping travel, rooms, sessions, meals and the evening show in step for a group that is away from home.
As a MICE company working from Pune since 2013, we plan the whole programme as one timeline. A typical incentive trip has arrivals, a welcome dinner, a business session, a free half-day, an activity, the awards gala and departures. We build the itinerary, block rooms, coordinate travel for the group, set up the meeting room and stage, and run the gala night.
A group might leave from Pune or Mumbai for a resort near Lonavala or Mahabaleshwar, or take a longer flight. Our MICE event solutions carry the same method either way: a written plan, an itemised quote and a team on site with your group, backed by 500+ events for 100+ brands and companies.
Reward trips for your high performers, with a gala night and time to enjoy the destination.
Strategy meetings away from the office, with quiet rooms, good food and a relaxed evening.
Company-wide conferences with keynotes, reviews and awards, often combined with travel and stay.
Trips for channel qualifiers, mixing a product briefing with a reward experience.
Your stall, team travel and client meetings planned together for a trade show.
Small, high-stakes meetings where the room, the AV and the timing must be exact.
A short break built around one big recognition night for your teams.
These are the parts we plan, coordinate and run for a meetings or incentive programme.
A day-by-day plan balancing sessions, free time, activities and meals, shared with every guest before departure.
Hotel or resort options compared, rooms blocked for the group, and rooming lists managed as names change.
Group travel planned by flight, train or coach, with pick-ups, drops and a tracker so nobody is left at arrivals.
Meeting rooms set with stage, screens, sound and breakout spaces for the business half of the trip.
A themed gala with stage, lighting, award flow, anchor and entertainment, planned around your recognition list.
Team activities, sightseeing and local experiences chosen for the group's energy and the weather that season.

A good incentive trip is planned backwards from one moment: the night your star performers walk up on stage. Everything else, from the flight time to the room upgrade, should protect that moment and leave people rested enough to enjoy it. The same thinking works for every MICE India programme, whether it is a two-night reward trip or a three-day sales conference with an evening show.
The guest list for an incentive trip is often known late, because it depends on sales results. Plan for a headcount range, block rooms with a release date, and agree how name changes will be handled. Lock the travel dates first; fares and room rates move quickly once you get close.
A destination four hours away by road can take more out of a group than a short flight. For a two-night trip, keep door-to-door travel short so guests are not tired for the gala. Check the season too: hill resorts are lovely after the rains but roads can be slow, and coastal places such as Alibaug get busy on long weekends.
If the trip carries a business session, hold it on the first morning while energy is high, and keep it tight. Leave at least one free half-day. The most common complaint on MICE trips is an itinerary so full that the reward feels like work. Keep the gala on the last full evening, not the arrival night, so people have settled in, dressed up and had a day together first. Plan the award list, walk-up music and photo moments well in advance, and keep speeches short so dinner is served while it is still hot.

MICE stands for Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions. It covers the business events a company organises for its employees, dealers and clients, often with travel and stay. In MICE India planning, the term usually means group programmes such as incentive trips, sales conferences and offsites, where sessions, reward activities and a gala night are planned together.
A MICE company plans and runs business events that involve groups, travel and a programme. That includes choosing the destination and venue, building the itinerary, blocking rooms, coordinating travel, setting up meeting rooms and stages, and running activities and the gala night. You get one plan and one point of contact instead of managing hotels, transport and suppliers separately.
MICE event solutions are the services that turn a company meeting or reward trip into a working programme: itinerary, stay, travel coordination, meeting set-up, AV, gala production, activities and guest help. A good plan links them on one timeline, so the flight lands before check-in opens and the gala starts after guests have rested.
Yes, we plan incentive trips that start from Pune, for companies based here and in nearby cities. Short trips often go to resorts within driving distance, and longer trips go further by air or rail. We plan the itinerary, stay, group travel, activities and the awards night, and our team is on the ground with your group.
We coordinate flights, trains, coaches and hotel rooms for the group as part of the plan. We compare options, block rooms, manage rooming lists and track every guest's travel. If your company has a travel desk or fixed booking rules, we work with those and handle everything else on the ground, from pick-ups to the gala.
Start a MICE programme ten to twelve weeks ahead for a domestic trip, and earlier for travel abroad or peak season. That gives time to compare destinations, block rooms at sensible rates and plan the gala properly. If qualifiers are decided late, block rooms for a headcount range and agree a release date with the hotel.
