Thank you for your note. I spoke to Pat last week who said everything was superb - the walk was excellent. She was pleased that the weather had changed (she had not even taken a coat as did not expect rain). Thank you for all your help - I have now asked Vista Palace about four more dates for meetings next year in June and September and if this is the case then I will also be arranging walk and dinner and will send you the details as soon as I have dates confirmed.
Thank you very much for all your help.

Everyone got back safe and sound despite a very bumpy landing at Heathrow due to high winds. Reports are that all the guests had a really enjoyable visit to Monte Carlo. Certainly the weather was delightful - so warm. Thank you for all the arrangements especially the menus. Those people who had asked for different meals really appreciated the attention to detail.
It was good to see you again and I hope to meet up again in the not too distant future.
Kind regards

HEMINGWAYI just wanted to write to thank you for organising the Paris side of our away day. It was magical. Everything ran like clockwork. Denise, our guide was lovely. She caught the mood of our party perfectly. She was friendly, informative and happy to adapt to our needs. Please pass on my thanks, again, to her.
I was particularly delighted with the boat (especially as the one we would have had originally was so much smaller!). It was magnificent, plenty of space for us to walk around and, most important on such a hot day, air conditioned. The staff were very pleasant and attentive.
The Ritz was also very accommodating. They were quite happy for us to linger a little longer than our itinerary specified and they made us feel very welcome.
I have had so many good comments from members of staff. The general feeling is that it was "the Best Away Day Ever" and a most memorable day.
Thank you for all your hard work in organising the day please pass on my thanks to all those involved.
Kind regards,
Jane Fuller
EVOLUTION EVENTS
Dear Paola,
I wanted to thank you for your help and commitment in making my recent event in Paris a great success.
Your initial proposal met our requirements and you continued to work with us until the programme was finalised 100%.
Your knowledge of the Parisian hotels was faultless and your negotiation skills perfect...after all you were able to confirm a five star hotel for amazingly low rates, enabling us to impress our client and their customers perfectly !!
The Acajou was a perfect setting to the start of the event and was exactly what we requested. I understand that the food was delicious and the musicians made the afternoon - thank you !
Although I was unable to attend the event myself, you were always easy to contact and constantly available to spend time speaking with me. My clients have also asked me to pass on their thanks and satisfaction with your services.
I look forward to the next time we'll work together on another project. I will have no hesitation in contact you at Metropolis for my next event in Paris.
Thanks again !

Germany - CPO Hanser
PARTHENON MEDICAL COMMUNICATIONSParthenon Medical Communications appointed CPO Hanser as the ground agent in Berlin for a large stand-alone meeting (400 participants) for our client, Novartis Pharma, which took place from 7 - 9 May 2004.
We were very pleased with the service we received from CPO Hanser and found them very efficient and very pleasant to work with. Their preparation and attention to detail was excellent and, very importantly for us, their response to any query was always prompt and thorough. Their management of last-minute requests and changes was faultless and their professionalism ensured that every detail of the event, from the airport transfers to the welcome reception and gala dinner went very smoothly.
I would not hesitate to use CPO Hanser again or to recommend them to my colleagues or clients.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further information.
Yours faithfully

I hope you are well. I just wanted to thank you for all your help with the Heinz event in Noordwijk last week and for helping to make it such a huge success.

I believe they had a very memorable evening.

Dear Sarah,
We are delighted to have the opportunity to put on record our very high level of satisfaction with the programme you organised for our clients in Kerala this March.
To be honest, we were a little apprehensive about organising a visit to India – especially as these are discerning clients with a high level of expectation.
However, we did not worry long as we quickly realised we were in expert hands with the choice of Cox & Kings as our DMC …
* the site visit was excellent and allowed us to fine-tune the programme.
* the accomodation was excellent and varied, yet all at a high standard.
* the programme was fascinating and showed us a glimpse of India at its best.
* everyone in Kerala - your colleagues, all at the hotels and in fact everyone we met - was so friendly and gave the event a unique atmosphere
+ and we benefitted from all the help you personally gave us throughout the planning, set-up and travel.
So we would totally recommend Kerala as a superb destination - and everyone involved at Cox & Kings for their knowledge and service.
With kind regards

Dear John
Many, many thanks for the outstanding contribution made by you and Thomas towards the successful SODEXHO incentive in Kenya.
In my view this was, without question, as good as any event we have ever organised for SODEXHO [if not the best] and this was in no small way down to the excellent abilities of you and your staff.
Kind regards

FORD UK - MARITZ
I wanted to thank you and the Destination Kenya team for looking after Ford Miles Ahead so well in Kenya…….
As you saw, the delegates absolutely loved been on safari and cannot stop talking about it.
Everything was extremely well organised and it was made easier and more comfortable by all the great work you did with the immigration and customs officials.
The hosting roles of Kristina and yourself were also an important contribution to everyone’s overall experience. We were probably lucky with the weather and ended up with better game viewing than I expected.
I do not think it could have been better and it has certainly been one of the major highlights of the Ford Miles Ahead Programme
Best regards

NAG - PLATINUM CLUB
Thomas and Edward,
We have now all returned safely from our adventures in Kenya and are settling back into the daily grind. The splendours of Kenya seem like a distant memory. I continue to receive comments from the attendees and they all confirm what a wonderful time they had at Finch Hattons and Governors.
I would like to formally express my thanks to you and your staff for looking after us in such a superb manner. The ground arrangements were flawless and were a testament to your hard work and attention to detail. As you know I had some concerns at the outset regarding Governors however your efforts made my fears groundless and a fabulous time was had by all. In fact they enjoyed it so much that several couples are actively making arrangements to return with their families next year.
Once again my sincere thanks to you both for making the trip truly memorable.
Kindest regards

On behalf of the whole Landmark Team can I thankyou so very much for helping to organise what has probably been the most successful Landmark Conference to date. You are well aware that we have been to many wonderful places over the years but I think New York actually was the best.
From the time we first met in March right until the completion last week in New York I hae been most impressed with your levels of organisation and attention to detail. We had tremendous feedback from both member and Supplier delegates and the social side of the Conference has been much appreciated by everybody. The quality of food, views and restaurants generally was superb.
Please thank all the guides who did such a great job on the coaches and looking after delegates moving from 'a' to' b' and indeed on the partner tours.
