A private winery event
Our team meets your group at the ship, transfers them out, and hosts a private winery afternoon built around your team.
Corporate Solutions
Corporate Meetings & Incentive Trips
CDV is not just a cruise agent. We are a full, direct land operator, so we can run your meeting, your incentive trip and much of what happens ashore ourselves.
What makes us different
One company, the whole supply chain
Businesses planning corporate meetings, retreats or incentive trips find that we are not only a full service company, but a direct operator for much of what we do. We have our own ground infrastructure throughout southern Europe, plus Argentina and Uruguay, which means we are the full supply chain.
You could plan a seven day Mediterranean cruise for your team, and we would design all of the onboard experiences, the meetings, the parties, the recognition moments, and directly operate many of the shore excursions ourselves.
Why it matters
No layers between you and the people taking action
No middle layers
We are not just the agency or the incentive house. We are also the DMC and often the ground operator, so you are never separated from the team that actually delivers.
We operate it ourselves
From onboard meetings and celebrations to many of the shore experiences, our own team designs and runs it, rather than handing it off to a chain of vendors.
360 degrees on the ground
The unexpected always happens. When it does, you are not calling an agency that calls a DMC that calls a ground operator. Our team is there, and our team takes action.
Right sized for you
We specialize in smaller groups. If you need a thousand people we are not your answer, unless it is cruise only. For 12 to 80 guests we are a perfect fit.
How it comes together
Your ship arrives. Our team is already there.
Because we operate on the ground in the places your itinerary visits, a port stop becomes a fully hosted experience rather than a booking passed down a chain of suppliers.
You stop in Rome and we host a private winery event, with our team collecting your group at the ship and running the day. You stop in Lisbon and we operate a day in Sintra. You call at Barcelona and we lead a human towers workshop for your team. Same company, from the gangway to the experience and back.

What a hosted day can look like
A day in Sintra
We operate a full day into the palaces and hills of Sintra, designed and run by our own people on the ground.
A human towers workshop
A genuinely unforgettable team session building castells, the Catalan human towers, guided by local experts we work with directly.
Where we operate on the ground
Our own teams in port, not a network of subcontractors
We have our own teams for every port in Italy and Portugal, plus Barcelona in Spain, Split and Dubrovnik in Croatia, Buenos Aires in Argentina and Montevideo in Uruguay. For every other destination, we fly in our closest team as part of the offering, so the people who plan your program are the same people delivering it on the ground.
