Dear Mr Moreno,
Further to our telephone conversation today, I would be interested in having an outline
proposition concerning an incentive holiday to Italy for a group of 8 people.
The trip would include sightseeing in perhaps Florence or Siena, visiting important
museums/art galleries, dinner in an elegant restaurant, designer shopping and a trip into
the countryside for a wine-tasting tour.
Departure from Heathrow or Gatwick on a Friday morning and return on the following
Monday afternoon.
Tuscany would be my first choice, but I am open to other suggestions as alternatives.
I understand that you have recently arranged holidays in Morocco that have included
air-ballooning and excursions.
This might be an alternative to consider as well.
Could you possibly submit a proposal for a long weekend in September on a budget
of £1250-£1750 per person, please?
I look forward to hearing from you.
