The Malta Tourism Authority, together with ten members of the local Destination Management Companies Directorate (DMCD), recently organised a trip entitled `The Knighthood Experience` for a number of conference and incentive organisers from Italy, UK, Holland, France, Belgium, Germany, Sweden, Norway and Austria. There were 47 participants in all.



The aim of this event was to attract new business to Malta through European conference and incentive organisers who were not considering this possibility at present. During their visit, which was organised by the MTA`s Conference and Incentive Division as well as other key players in the tourism industry, the CIT organisers were given a taste of what can be organised on the Maltese Islands.



The underlying theme of the organised activities was the Order of the Knights of St John. All the activities were organised in such a way as to enable the groups to interact among themselves. The highlight of the visit was a medieval banquet in one of the most imposing buildings in Valletta, `The Sacra Infermeria`, the former hospital of the Knights of the Order of St. John, where the guests were wined, dined, entertained and proclaimed `Ambassadors of Malta` during a Knighting Ceremony.



The participating DMC`s were Best of Malta, United Travel Agency Ltd, President – Conference & Incentive Travel, On Site Malta, Arrigo Group Ltd., Alpine Travel, Globalair Travel Ltd., Special Interest Travel Ltd, Intour Services and Sullivan Travel & Tourism.



The conference and incentive organisers were flown to Malta by Air Malta and were offered accommodation free-of-charge by the following five star hotels: Corinthia San Gorg, Corinthia Palace, Intercontinental Malta, Hilton Malta, Westin Dragonara, Le Meridien Phoenicia and Radisson SAS.
