WHO WE ARE

Every experience we operate has a reason for being

We are a boutique company specialized in incentive travel and corporate events, based in Argentina with operations in Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, and Peru. With over 25 years of experience in the sector, we work alongside our clients as trusted partners in their most demanding challenges.

HISTORY · OVER 25 YEARS

A trajectory built from within

More than 25 years in South America teach a simple lesson: exceptional experiences are built with time and craftsmanship. That journey is still alive, it is the foundation upon which every itinerary is designed.

What accumulates over that time is more than experience; it is relationships with suppliers who know us and open doors reserved for a select few. With agencies that return because they know what they will find. With destinations that we understand from the inside out.

That fabric is what turns a good design into something participants remember. That same criterion links us with SITE South America, AOCA, and MPI — the networks that set the industry standard globally.

Twenty-five years are built day by day.

TEAM

Our team knows your work and enjoys doing it

Every member of ANDINA by Rixner DMC knows their job well and knows when to call upon the right specialist. There is a shared criterion, and it is that criterion—combined with a network of top-tier providers—that builds programs where everyone's experience adds value.

Value Proposition

First we listen, then we design

Before making a proposal, we want to understand the real goal of the program: to reward the best salespeople, build group cohesion, create a sense of belonging, or deepen client relationships?

That initial conversation ensures the plan makes sense, rather than just looking good on paper. Next comes the design. Every experience has its reason for being, its rhythm: intensity and pauses alternate, the group and the individual are balanced. A well-built program doesn't feel like a program — it flows.

And on the ground, we are present. We do not coordinate from a distance: whoever designed the program knows the suppliers and is there when the group arrives.

LISTEN

Before proposing, we ask

The purpose of the trip, the profile of the participants, the current moment the company is going through. What they want to generate: recognition, connection, loyalty, motivation for the next season.

DESIGN

Judicious selection

Every element has a reason for being. Everything responds to an intention.

OPERATION

Field execution

Real presence in every operation. Trusted suppliers, the ability to resolve any unforeseen event. Coordination happens on-site, alongside the participants.

Sustainability

We take care of the destinations

Local suppliers, respected communities, measured impact. Supporting producers and artisans from each region is part of every experience.

Clients testimonies

Rixner is a fantastic agency and trusted travel partner for our organization! We have worked together several times over the past few years to create unforgettable experiences. They are creative, tactical and very responsive.

Rixner DMC delivered an exceptional luxury experience for our program in Buenos Aires. From the flawlessly managed meeting sessions at the Four Seasons Hotel to the exclusive evening events at iconic venues such as the Jockey Club and a private Members House arranged exclusively for our group, every detail was executed to perfection. Rixner DMC is the best!

Rixner DMC exceeded our expectations during our Lenovo program in Mendoza. Every detail was perfectly organized, from the meeting sessions to the exclusive evening experiences at Bodega Decero, Bodega Los Toneles, and Finca Paraíso. Their professionalism, creativity, and excellent coordination made the entire program flawless. We would undoubtedly trust them again for future events and incentives in Argentina.

We loved discovering the city from an authentic perspective, combining local culture with high-level proposals. The team's ability to anticipate every need allowed us to enjoy the program without worries. We received excellent feedback from all participants and would certainly trust them again for future events and incentives in Argentina.

Iguazú truly exceeded our expectations. The destination is even more spectacular than we had imagined, and every experience was perfectly organized, allowing us to enjoy the incredible natural beauty without worrying about a thing. Thanks to Rixner DMC's excellent planning.

The journey through Argentina with the wonderful Rixner DMC was a trip that filled my heart, opened my eyes, and left me with precious memories. Our adventure began at the Iguazú Falls, one of the most breathtaking natural wonders in the world. Standing before the roaring waterfalls, surrounded by mist and rainforest, felt almost surreal — a reminder of how powerful and beautiful nature can be. From there, we traveled to Ushuaia, the legendary “End of the World.” Its dramatic landscapes, snow-capped mountains, and crisp southern air made it feel like stepping into another universe. Whether sailing through the Beagle Channel or simply taking in the silence of Patagonia, every moment felt magical.

The team introduced us to the very best of Buenos Aires with unique experiences we would never have discovered on our own. Their professionalism, local knowledge, and attention to detail made this an unforgettable trip, and we would happily work with Rixner DMC again.

🇦🇷 1,500+ partners. A brand-new market. An unforgettable start. 🌎💚 On July 10, RINGANA officially launched in Argentina – followed just one day later by the very first Fresh Experience Day at the impressive Faena Art Center in Buenos Aires. ✨ What a way to kick things off! 🚀 More than 1,500 partners had already registered before the launch – an incredible sign of the energy and excitement surrounding this new market. Behind this success: passion, teamwork and strong international collaboration. Our Female Power Dream Team Ágnes Kovács & Andrea Moran Gonzalez Angulo accompanied the event from the very first planning steps through to on-site execution, together with our fantastic local DMC partner Rixner DMC. A huge thank you to Franz Rixner and the entire team for making this experience so special! 🙌

I enjoyed my stay immensely, and I am already dreaming of returning! Thank you very much again for your efforts, and for making the YPO Iconic Event a success! As I told you while we were having coffee, we were fascinated by the program and the dedication and sharpness of the organization in general.- Unique presentations of people, places, and activities- Local staff at all levels, we felt truly very welcome and everything was perfect, nothing was excessive at any time.- The guides not only knew a great deal, but also had a very good willingness to help and be present at all times.- Many surprise elements that kept us expectant and curious about what might happen next. Wiet de Bruijn, Member of YPO, Nov. 2023

I have worked with DMCs from all over the world in the past and I know exactly when their service goes above and beyond. Esther, Franz, and their team are definitely in this group! We had a group in El Calafate with Rixner International and we never had the feeling that we were not in the most capable hands. The creativity and original ideas we experienced were phenomenal: regardless of whether it was shearing sheep in Patagonia or experiencing the world-famous Boca stadium. I would not hesitate for a second to recommend Rixner International to anyone looking for help and assistance in Argentina.

Esther and Franz and their team took care of us (EU mission to Argentina and Brazil) and we felt pampered and looked after. Their permanent good mood was an added value to the services provided, as they resolved requests with a smile and without stress. Thank you, gracias, obrigado!

Esther Faus, It is incredible how often you exceed expectations Going Over And Beyond. I cannot thank you enough for one of the most incredible experiences I have ever had in my life. I have traveled to several other countries and I have to say that Argentina is now one of my favorites. Esther was instrumental in creating unique experiences. She thought of everything and took care of everything. Her top-level services and high level of attention made our trip perfect. We now call Esther our friend. We hope to return to Argentina in the future to see Esther and experience more of this incredible country.

It’s been a pleasure to work with Esther Faus and Franz Rixner of Rixner DMC Argentina. Esther brings creativity, passion, and decades of professional experience to every itinerary she curates for our travelers. It’s always fun to work with Esther and her team. Our guests have repeatedly given Esther and her team at Rixner excellent reviews. We just finished an incredible journey in Buenos Aires & Patagonia which was planned and escorted by Esther, and we are already planning future journeys. I strongly recommend working with Esther & Rixner DMC Argentina for all of your travel needs in Argentina.

A successful incentive trip! We were not only impressed by the giant glaciers of El Calafate or the landscapes of Ushuaia, but also by the dedication of Rixner, who accompanied us during the organization and throughout the entire trip. Their passion for their work and attention to detail makes all the difference. Our entire group was fascinated; they will never forget Argentina!

Esther of Rixner DMC was excellent in handling our group, from the moment we landed in Buenos Aires and throughout our entire visit. Very attentive and detail-oriented. We recommend her services to any group visiting Argentina.

Many thanks to Esther and Franz for their effort, support, and excellent organization during our stay in Buenos Aires. We admire their professionalism and dedication, as well as their problem-solving ability in every circumstance, always with a positive attitude. It was a pleasure working with you! Great appreciation and respect for your work. Thank you!

During these 47 years in the incentive business, I have worked with many DMCs, but thanks to having worked with Esther over the past four years, we have managed to put together a unique program in BA and Mendoza. I have especially appreciated her creativity, flexibility, and even her help with services that are not usually contemplated, such as securing the necessary airspace. Anyone working with Esther could not be in better hands!

Esther and Frans from Rixner DMC planned this incredible trip, a combination of cosmopolitan Buenos Aires and the landscapes of Patagonia. They were excellent in handling our group, from the moment we landed in Buenos Aires and throughout our entire trip. Very attentive and detail-oriented. We recommend their services to any group visiting Argentina.

We went to El Calafate with family and friends. We highly recommend Rixner! They made our trip even more pleasant, with much convenience and organization. The tours were incredible! We lived unforgettable moments. The transfers are punctual and with several curiosities about the tour. They accompanied us from disembarkation to accommodation and tours, taking care to ensure that everything was perfect.

It was a spectacular trip! The Vines Resort & Spa impressed us with its great design and good taste. Its Siete Fuegos restaurant overlooking the pool and vineyards is really worth it, with a Mallmann-style menu and fire show. We were in several wineries, one better than the other, where we ate and drank exquisitely in each of their restaurants. The organization in charge of Rixner was perfect and well planned. Congratulations!

had the pleasure to be assisted by Esther at Rixner during a trip to Mendoza with a group of friends. She managed to host us all at a small and charming hotel, which was entirely reserved to us. Everything was detailed planned and beautifully executed. The visits to the wineries of our choice, and some of them selected by Rixner, were amazing. VIP treatment and unforgettable lunches and dinners, sometimes with unexpected surprises, such as the presence of the owners and chefs. She also made it possible to have more than one option for the group, accommodating specific desires or needs with more than one transfer available. Next time I go to Argentina, She will be the only person I will look for assistance and support.
