In this special (and slightly chaotic!) Christmas episode of the Tourism Chat Show, host Michelle is joined by an incredible lineup of guests: Adele Marsden from New Zealand Educational Tours, Lisa Chambers dialing in from Cairns Adventure Group, Garth Oakden of Tongariro River Rafting, and John Gregory from Terranova Tours.
Together, they take a light-hearted look back at 2024, sharing highlights like business expansions, awards, and personal milestones (weddings included!). The group doesn’t shy away from discussing the year’s challenges, including non-refundable deposits and shifting travel patterns.
Looking ahead to 2025, the conversation turns to dreams of diversification, prioritizing self-care, and strengthening industry support networks. This festive episode wraps up with reflections on successes and aspirations for the year to come.
Join us for laughs, insights, and a toast to the future!
