MICE Showcase Media Tour
I was part of a MICE Showcase Media Tour, which was organized to familiarize journalists with the world-class facilities that Hong Kong Disneyland has to offer organizers of meetings, incentives, conferences, and events (MICE) as well as wedding planners.
Both the Hong Kong Disneyland theme park and the three Walt Disney Hotels located nearby were included in the tour.
Our group comprised journalists, food critics, and travel bloggers from China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.
We spent a total of three days and two nights at the Hong Kong Disney resort.
