ACTIVITIES
Kayaking and Catamaran Sailing around Bacalar Lagoon

As they draw in fresh air, their thoughts will become just as invigorated and freshly inspired. Spotting a great idea becomes easier as they recenter surrounded by nature and new experiences.
Archeological site-seeing
In a location rich in history and archeological prowess, it makes sense to take a moment to stop and see the awe-inspiring monumental structures.

BOOK TODAY
All of these activities are sure to invigorate and challenge your teams. The reality is that most team building or incentive trips do not go the extra mile to provide true inspiration for your teams, a trip to Mexico will. The opportunities for adventures within local culture, the stunning archaeological structures, and fun water and jungle experiences will awaken your teams from any rut they possibly could have been experiencing. When teams stay well within their comfort zones attending meetings in boring conference rooms, neurogenesis does not occur at its greatest potential. Neurogenesis is the process of cell growth which occurs most greatly when people are challenged with a new experience. Allow your teams to stay sharp, get the inspiration they need, and improve idea generation and performance for months to come upon return from a stay at one of our properties.
