Nashville is one of America's most influential cities and has steered the nation's contributions to the global art and music scenes. Commonly referred to as Music City, Nashville is a must-visit destination for lovers of country, bluegrass, rock and R'n'B music.

Nashville is a city of substantial beauty, iconic culture and historical significance. It's where global icons such as Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton and Roy Acuff made their first claims to fame, and where Grand Ole Opry—the nation's longest-running radio show—continues to broadcast the soothing sounds of bluegrass and country.
Besides music, Nashville is also renowned for its delicious cuisine and architectural landmarks. While exploring the neighbourhoods, you'll encounter local eateries churning out delicacies like Hot Chicken, Bushwackers and Goo Goo Clusters.

We couldn't do it without you. You were a huge support for us. We did a feedback survey asking the team how everything was, asking about the hotel, the food, the program etc. and they were able to rate from 1 to 10, & overall we have a 9.5 So it was really really successful!
The expectations were really high. We put a lot of pressure on you since the start, telling you about our last events in the Moroccan desert and in Eiffel Tower. But it was great. The organization was really smooth. The event was beyond expectation!
We did a survey with the guys, we have like mostly 9/10, or 10/10. People were really having so much fun… they were very happy with the choice of the place. The venue, the weather, the team dynamics, it all came together really well.
I really felt having you being part of it was such an asset. Just knowing that you were point in organizing this and then also if there was a question or problem we could just reach out directly was really helpful.
Everybody loved it! We did a post-offsite survey, and it was all vibes! Everything went to plan. One thing that we were all saying internally as well is like - I honestly don't think we would have made happen unless we had Surf Office.
It was great! People loved the balance of free time and activities. They loved that we gave them options on activities.
We have been doing this since 2008, so it was the 17th event this year. And the consensus was that this was the best ever. Everybody was super happy, they had lots of fun. So it was great.
People got together, people got to see each other. We had really good internal sessions, and also a lot of off time sessions. I feel Surf Office thought of a lot of things that one would not think when you're planning an off site in another country.
We have grown so much since our last event, so were a lot of people, and we needed those three days to talk, to interact with everyone... You handled it so beautifully. We did not have to worry about organizing or arranging anything. You guys did an amazing job.
The most popular team building activities are surf lessons, SUP lessons and tapas night but there are plenty more to choose from.
