“As a huge supporter of inVOYAGE since its first edition, we are absolutely thrilled with the opportunity to host inVOYAGE at our iconic ‘Pink Lady’ next year,” says Perrine Chapelain, Belmond’s senior account director, Groups, UK, Scandinavia, France and Benelux.
“We are looking forward to showcasing Cape Town, a truly inspiring destination for incentives and events. The natural beauty of the sea meeting Table Mountain, South Africa’s most iconic landmark, gives The Mother City a unique landscape. Marrying many cultures and different landscapes, and with so much to offer, it can be hard to decide where to start. Mount Nelson is an oasis of calm in the city’s buzzing heart and we are delighted to invite you to uncover the soul of South Africa at our beautiful hideaway.”
