Wild Earth’s big push

WILD Earth Travel is in the midst of its biggest Polar Travel Expo, packing in events in Adelaide, Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney and Brisbane, all in the space of five days.

The expo is covering the offerings of Heritage Expeditions, Adventure Canada and Polar Latitude and marks the first time Wild Earth Travel has brought big players in the polar regions into Australia for a roadshow.

This week the team will meet with a total of around 200 agents across events and visits to agent stores for educational sessions.

The delegation also took the time to drop by the CW office.

“Everybody’s loved the fact that they’re learning about a new destination and product, which is so foreign to Australians in the first place – the polar regions,” Neil Saunders, marketing & bdm Australia Wild Earth Travel said.

Saunders said the visit had been coordinated with “the right time” to book the 2019/20 season.

”You can’t leave it until the last minute to go, because there is no room, they will be full.

“Small ships fill well in advance, very quickly,” he said.

The expo has also marked the launch of the 2019/20 brochures from Polar Latitude and Adventure Canada.
