Are you looking for an idea for a corporate seminar in Touraine that will truly bring your teams together? Air Touraine designs custom aviation experiences to create a memorable event, recognize your employees, and leave a lasting impression on your clients.

Departing from Tours Val de Loire Airport or a location we’ve selected together with you, your group can explore the region from the sky, travel to a unique destination, or incorporate a flight into a comprehensive team-building program. Each project is tailored to your group size, your objectives, and the time available.

The right format depends on your goal: to reward employees, build team cohesion, thank your customers, launch a product, or offer your teams a unique break from the routine. Our team will help you turn that goal into a seamless and memorable program.

Why choose Touraine for your corporate seminar?

With its rich heritage, natural beauty, vineyards, and fine dining, Touraine offers everything you need for a unique business event. The châteaux of the Loire Valley provide an exceptional setting for a meeting, reception, incentive event, or gala evening.

The region also helps minimize travel time between the various stages of your event: accommodations, a study day, team-building activities, lunch at an estate, or a cultural tour. This allows you to create a cohesive, exotic experience that’s easily accessible from major urban centers.

Two aerial experiences to create that “wow” factor

  • A helicopter ride for an engaging seminar

    A helicopter flight adds an exclusive touch to your event. It can take the form of a first-time flight, a tour of the Loire Valley castles, or a transfer to a partner venue, subject to operational feasibility.

    • Sessions are organized based on the number of participants.
    • Itineraries and schedules tailored to your schedule.
    • We can arrange for the tour to depart from your company or your reception venue.
    • A solution that is particularly well-suited for client invitations and prestigious events.

 

  • A Hot-Air Balloon to Strengthen Cohesion

    A more relaxed and interactive activity, a hot-air balloon ride offers your teams a unique opportunity to bond. The preparation, inflation, flight, and return become a truly collaborative experience.

    • Flights are available in the morning or evening, at sunrise or sunset.
    • Departures may be arranged from a castle, a hotel, or a reception venue, subject to permits.
    • A session lasting about three hours, including preparation, a flight of about one hour, packing up, and the return trip by 4x4.
    • A glass of Champagne to keep the conversation going after we land.

Three Format Ideas for Your Professional Event

The Half-Day Incentive Program

A welcome coffee, a brief meeting, a scenic flight over the Loire, followed by lunch at a vineyard or a charming restaurant.

Cohesion Day

A hot-air balloon ride at sunrise, breakfast, a group activity, a tour of a castle or vineyard, and a convivial dinner.

The Customer Event

Helicopter rides, arrival at a prestigious location, a gourmet dining experience, and a personalized program to thank your partners.

These examples can be adapted to your staff, your schedule, and the constraints of the selected site.

A professional organization that prioritizes safety

The success of an aviation seminar depends as much on the emotional impact as on the precision of the preparation. Operations are planned in advance to coordinate schedules, rotations, meeting points, and any necessary authorizations.

  • Pre-flight safety briefings.
  • Schedule based on the group's turnaround times and travel arrangements.
  • Feasibility study for departures from your company, hotel, or reception venue.
  • The program may be adjusted in the event of changing weather conditions.
  • A single point of contact to centralize information about your event.
