Testimonials
World Council of Credit Unions
When choosing a Destination Management Company for our conference, we look an organization that is extremely knowledgeable about the specific destination, has out-of-the-box ideas, and is well organized and responsive – Rare Indigo met all of these needs and surpassed our expectations. Our conference serves anywhere from 1,500 to 3,000 executives from over 55 countries and is held in a different country each year. As such we rely heavily on DMCs to help us get the most out of each city we visit. Overall, both internal meetings staff for and attendees of the World Credit Union Conference enjoyed working with Rare Indigo in Vancouver, Canada, and we are happy to recommend their services.

When selecting a DMC, we prioritize finding true partners—and that’s exactly what we found in Rare Indigo. Lana Casavant and her team exemplify professionalism, expertise, and a collaborative spirit, all while making the experience enjoyable. Their in-depth knowledge of the destinations, along with their strong industry relationships, sets them apart. It’s always a pleasure working with them, and when we’re next in Banff, Lake Louise, Whistler, or Vancouver, they’ll undoubtedly be our first call!

Rare Indigo is a first class organization and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with them. They truly felt like an extension of our team. If you are planning an event in Canada, you would be a fool not to hire them!

“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.”

“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.”

Rare Indigo dealt with my changes in a fearless manner and with open communication we were able to produce a program that was described as the ‘best ever’.
