How many French incentive groups do you welcome each year?
Pascal Baudoin - We receive around twenty French groups for operations that generally last four days.
What are their main requests?
P. B. - It's a mix of cultural themed discoveries, such as Art Nouveau or Gothic, and dynamic activities such as regattas, go-karting or mini-car tours. Walking and cycling rallies are also very popular.
Why did they choose Barcelona?
P. B. - Firstly, for its image: dynamic, avant-garde, cultural, sunny and only 1h30 from Paris. And secondly, for its festive and fashionable side.
What is its incentive potential?
P. B. - It's huge! It's a city by the sea, offering all the activities of a modern metropolis with a wealth of culture, combined with those of a seaside resort: water sports, beaches, seafood restaurants...
Barcelona's surrounding area is also ideal for a number of excursions.
When is the ideal time to organise an operation?
P. B. - Although Barcelona can be visited all year round, May-June and September-October are undoubtedly the best months.
