Melbourne-based day tour operator Go West Tours has been declared the best tourism operator in its field, winning the Best Tour & Transport Operators category at the 2007 Qantas Australian Tourism Awards.
After last year being inducted into the Victorian Tourism Awards Hall of Fame for winning this category at the state level three years in a row, Go West is now recognised of one of the Australian Tourism industry’s leading lights.
Operating small group tours from Melbourne to the Great Ocean Road and to Phillip Island for the famous Penguin Parade, Go West Tours was established in September 2000 and has stamped itself as one of the nation’s most innovative businesses.
Go West founder Terry Smit said “We’re absolutely thrilled to have been recognised in this way. After being runner-up for the last two years at the national level, to finally get across the line and take home the trophy is a fantastic reward for our amazing team and a real buzz for us as directors. There’s no higher honour in our industry and this caps off what is a truly exciting period for our business.”
In 2006 Go West Tours introduced the world’s first on-tour personal translation service for non-English speaking customers, and this year continued its pioneering use of technology by providing the world’s first in-coach personal video service.
