“Our company’s recent program originating in Vancouver, British Columbia was a tremendous success! Our positive experience was due, in part, to the planning and attention to detail displayed by our destination management company, Rare Indigo. I would not hesitate to use them if you have any upcoming programs in their area of service.”

“We went with Rare Indigo and could not have been happier with the service they provided, both prior to arrival, and once landed in Vancouver. The staff from Rare Indigo not only made us welcome and our agenda run smoothly, they went out of their way to ensure we had a great time. I would have no hesitation in recommending Rare Indigo to prospective customers, as their service was second to none.”

“As far back as the initial visit I made to Vancouver, Rare Indigo provided our team with a great experience. Ultimately, that was the reason we chose Vancouver BC for our Platinum Summit. I heard nothing but glowing comments from our guests regarding the location, facilities, and details. I give credit for those glowing comments to Rare Indigo. I am a firm believer that proper planning is the key to event success. Nothing but kudos to your entire team.”

“When faced with the task of planning the celebration of a successful decade, a lot of thought goes into not only what should be achieved with the event but also with WHO you should entrust this great responsibility. It is safe to say that what was achieved in our one week event is reflected not only in countless smiles and moments of joy which has strengthened the ties between our employees and customers, but also in great memories that will last for years to come and will be cherished by everyone that attended. Thank you Rare Indigo for making this happen.”

“Just a brief note to say thank you to Rare Indigo for making our Mariner’s Club trip an outstanding success. The whole trip was flawless. If there were problems, neither I (the trip planner) nor any of our guests were aware, which in my experience is exceptional. The staff was all welcoming, aware, tireless, experienced and knew the answers to all of the questions asked. I would recommend the services of Rare Indigo to any company planning a trip to Canada.”

“It is often a challenge for us to find a partner who is comfortable with our heavy involvement in the program and who is able to turn this into a positive and use it to their advantage. Unlike other suppliers who sometimes try to talk us out of some of our ideas due to their complexity, from day one, Rare Indigo was completely on-board with our vision and was excited to set-out to help us achieve and execute our plans to the highest possible standard. Rare Indigo listened to what we wanted, weren’t afraid to ask questions or challenge ideas, and most importantly, were completely dedicated to helping us achieve one of the best programs we have ever had – with great success.”

“The team at Rare Indigo came through again! We needed to plan a five day event which included many unique aspects, in a VERY short window of time.

Sane Event Group Pty Ltd
“As our group consisted of senior executive level from Global organizations, it was imperative not only for the program to run smoothly, but for the delegates to enjoy a truly unique experience that they could not achieve via independent travel in Vancouver. Rare Indigo from the outset provided a level of service that was outstanding and always outside the square. The staff always treated myself and my group with professionalism and respect and was knowledgeable on every aspect.”

“From the very beginning, we were quite confident that we were in good hands. Rare Indigo’s expertise, wisdom, creativity and attention to all details were prevalent and exceeded our expectations. Everything went smoothly from the point of pick up at the Pan Pacific Hotel and all had nothing but high praises for the drivers and tour guides. It goes without saying that we are thankful that we used Rare Indigo for this event, and if the opportunity arises, we won’t hesitate to do so in the future.”

“From the moment we stepped foot in the Vancouver airport until the moment we left, the services you provided were just sensational. Working with you was a joy in that not only did you truly know how to make a client happy, but more importantly you knew how to make the client’s customers feel they were special.

BI WORLDWIDE
“Rare Indigo demonstrates a truly inclusive and professional way of working. From your proposals and costs, which are clear and detailed, to operating on-site, we always know when we are in comfortable hands and never feel worried about event details. Simple things like giving honest advice when something really won’t work based on your expert experience or detailing changes on a budget in different colours – this is simple, but so helpful! Or, sending restaurant options with suggested menus, this allows us to put together a varied program. All staff and methods of working ensured a hugely successful event and you are a delight to work with.”
