Venice is once again on the client bucket list for 2024. But it’s time to stop following the usual Venice itinerary. Here are some itineraries you should avoid: 1. Visiting in peak season 2. Sticking to tourist traps 3. Overlooking local culture Instead, embrace off-season travel and local crafts for events: 1. Teambuilding: Take the over one-kilometer-long labyrinth in Venice on San Giorgio Maggiore Island. This labyrinth stands as a symbol of the world's complexity and is great for tech and financial companies who love a good challenge! 2. Wellness: San Servolo Island, Venice's largest park and open-air gallery, is a must. It has a rich history as a monastery and later an asylum during the Venetian Republic. Now beautifully restored, it's perfect for walks that blend history and nature. We organise event venues nearby, so you can easily incorporate it into your schedule. Have you considered walking meetings? 3. WOW moment: For the best view of Venice, go to Palazzo Contarini, known for its architecture and the spiral staircase that adorns the façade. It's likely your attendees haven't seen this yet, so they will be wowed the moment we reach the location. How about surprising your group with a drinks reception there at sunset? That would be a moment to remember! 4. Local giveaway: We don't do cheap giveaways; instead, we offer our clients a hands-on local experience of the culture, where they can craft and co-create together with the locals, taking home something they've made themselves. Explore the hidden ‘botteghe’ (artisan shops) with skilled ‘artigiani’ to see beautiful crafts being created right in front of you, such as glass-blowing, or participate in small-group activities like lace-making in Burano. This is the perfect choice for groups of 4-8 people. What’s the one activity from this list you’d like to do in Venice? #EventPlanner #Teambuilding #EventDestinations

Utrecht is calling, Conscious is on its way! 5️⃣ Conscious Hotels is stepping into new territories — and not just any. In the spring of 2025, the 5th Conscious Hotel will open in the former pop temple Tivoli Oudegracht, in Utrecht (The Netherlands), known for hosting legendary concerts like Pearl Jam in 1992 and Prince's surprise show in 1998. 🏨 This 46-room boutique hotel will open right in the middle of Utrecht’s city center, overlooking the city’s oldest canal. 💋 And in true Conscious style, we’re putting the eco next to sexy. We’re upgrading the building to Energy label A+, outfitting the interior with recycled and upcycled furniture, and serving exclusively vegetarian and organic products. #EcoSexyBigSmiles. 🎶 All while preserving the historic charm of the building, like the stained-glass elements, and the monumental fireplaces in some of the rooms. Could it be... the most beautiful hotel in the world? 📈Adding this new hotel to the Conscious Group portfolio, is the next step in our ambitious growth journey moving towards 2500 sustainable keys across Europe by 2030. And with these ambitions, you can be sure there’s more ahead! 📭 Are you a landlord, hotel owner or developer that wants to explore bringing a Conscious Hotel to your city in Europe?

#Rio's Vibrant Lifestyle: Lessons in #Urban #Design and #Hospitality 🌟 I'm always amazed when in Rio de Janeiro by how the city’s design and culture fuse so seamlessly to promote a vibrant, healthy lifestyle. The famous "calçadão", that stretches along the beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema, is more than just a pathway—it's a lively hub for #exercise and #social interaction. This well-thought-out urban design includes readily available exercise equipment and volleyball nets, making physical activity an enticing and accessible option for everyone. The presence of coconut water stands and corner delis offering fresh, #healthy #smoothies and #food exemplifies the city’s encouragement of nutritious eating habits. 🥥🏐 🌞 Moreover, the warmth and character of the #Cariocas — Rio’s residents— add a unique flavor to the experience. Their approach to #service is #personal and #proactive; they often greet you by name and anticipate your needs before you even articulate them. This attentiveness is not just reserved for special occasions but is a regular feature of everyday interactions, reflecting a deep-seated cultural norm of #hospitality and #kindness. The people of Rio seem to inherently understand the importance of community and wellness, making the city a true exemplar of how urban environments can enhance the quality of life. Through its design and the demeanor of its people, Rio de Janeiro continually encourages a healthy, joyful, and connected lifestyle, embodying a perfect blend of #form, #function, and #friendliness. 🌺🌈 🌍 Tourism destinations worldwide could take a leaf out of Rio's book, learning how to create environments that not only welcome tourists with open arms but also support the health and vitality of their local communities. When cities prioritize accessible, #community-#centric #design and cultivate a culture of #personalized #service, they not only enrich the lives of their #residents but also enhance the #visitor experience, making it more memorable and authentic. This synergy between a healthy local community and a thriving tourist industry creates a #sustainable, #vibrant #destination that attracts and delights visitors repeatedly, fostering a positive cycle of #growth and #goodwill. 💪🏖️ Feel free to share your experiences and thoughts on how other cities can follow Rio's example to foster both community well-being and a thriving tourism sector!
