Life's An Adventure took home an incredible 3 coveted Gold awards at last night's NSW Tourism Awards of Excellence. An incredible achievement for a company just shy of 5 years old. Not content to win Gold in the Tour Operator category they followed up with another 2 gold in the highly contested Adventure Tourism & Eco Tourism awards.
Owners Mark and Vicki Norek said "it was very unexpected to win one of these prestigious awards let alone three, I think we are still in shock. You almost expect large companies to take out these awards, but it is wonderful a small business is also recognised for their hard work.
Life's An Adventure have grown substantially in almost 5 years and now offer over 23 tours in kayaking, 4WDing, hiking, mountain biking throughout the Blue Mountains, Sydney and Tasmania. They were representing the Blue Mountains area last night at these awards. Mark said " we hope by winning these awards for the region, we will help focus on promoting more tourism to return to this amazing and spectacular destination".
When asked what was the key to Life's An Adventure's success Mark commented " We don't see ourselves as a tour operator but a producer of magical moments, we strive to achieve excellence in customer service by going the extra mile, doing the little things and doing them well and surprising our customers with the unexpected. On one of our most popular tours our Blue Mountains 4WD tour, we deliver a unique wilderness lunch overlooking breathtaking scenery with rarely a tourist in sight. We set up a private table with white linen, Australian wine and platters of wonderful cheese, antipasto and local produce, our client's are blown away with the location, scenery and lunch."
Life's An Adventure now move ahead to the Australian awards held in Sydney in February next year.
