    Thirty top-selling travel agents from across Australia and New Zealand have just returned from a spectacular adventure in Spain and Portugal thanks to Globus and its 2016 Supertour.

    This year’s Supertour involved an 11-day itinerary through some of the most colourful destinations on the Iberian peninsula, including Barcelona, Madrid, Toledo, Seville, Setúbal and Lisbon.

    As special surprise, the group was taken to a football game between Barcelona and RCD Espanyol, wearing personalised jerseys made especially for the agents. Barcelona won the day 5-0. The expedition was offered to 20 agents from Australia and 10 from New Zealand as a reward for their sales of Globus, Cosmos, Avalon Waterways and Monograms holidays.

    The Supertour was based on the Globus Iberian Tapestry itinerary, one of dozens of tours in the Globus 2016 Europe program. 

     

    Nitmiluk Gorge opened for canoeing season

    Canoeing on Gorge 2

    The canoeing season on Nitmiluk Gorge has officially opened as of 9 June 2016. The Parks and Wildlife Commission of the Northern Territory has undertaken the annual post wet season river management program and opened the Nitmiluk Gorge system for canoeing in the second and third gorges.

    “Canoeing has been opened in the second and third Gorge”, said Mr Tony Clementson, General Manager, Nitmiluk Tours. “Guests wishing to canoe will be ferried to the top of the first gorge where we have set up a canoe shed for hire and storage.”

    “We believe this will in fact add to the canoe experience as without doubt the second and third gorges are the more spectacular– and quite often on a half day canoe hire, guests never get up this far. We encourage all guests who wish to part take in canoe hire to pre-book as this product is very popular and fills up very quickly,” said Mr Clementson. “The Gorge is one of the most picturesque places to canoe in Australia – guests can admire the stunning views, get up close to the wildlife, and explore the rocky escarpments from the riverbank.
