The short answer
An incentive trip rewards a team with a holiday. Nepal is popular because Indian citizens do not need a visa, flights are short, and the mix of temples, mountains and activities suits groups. A typical plan is three to five days in Kathmandu and Pokhara, with a gala dinner, a cultural evening and an adventure or scenic activity.
Tell the operator your group size, budget range, dates and ideas for the programme. They can arrange hotels, vehicles, guides, a dinner venue and activities. Always agree the plan and the payment terms in writing, and ask for a backup plan in case of weather.
