Warm welcome to tropics
A NEW program has been launched to give visitors to the tropical north a warm welcome.
The ‘Tropical North Queensland Welcomes You’ program trains frontline staff to share their pride and passion for their region while warmly welcoming guests.
The initiative provides online training programs and in-person workshops tailored for each of Queensland’s 13 tourism regions.
Topics in the Tropical North Queensland Welcomes You program include hosting visitors, storytelling, accessibility, inclusion, sustainability and local experiences.
Tourism Minister Andrew Powell said the government wanted Queensland “to be the friendliest and most inclusive destination on the planet as we deliver our 20-year plan for supercharging the tourism industry towards Brisbane 2032 and beyond”.
“The Welcomes You program will inspire all frontline workers, including tourism and hospitality staff, tour guides, transport operators and event volunteers to let their pride and passion for their region and Queensland shine through,” he said.
