SeaLink South Australia has launched a new website in Chinese,  http://sealinkaustralia.cn/  after identifying China as one of the key growth markets for the South Australian Tourism Industry.

The Chinese website provides consumers with information on what SeaLink South Australia is offering the China market including accommodation options and day and overnight tours in Adelaide or on Kangaroo Island.

Day tours in Adelaide include the Barossa Valley Food and Wine Experience, Victor Harbor and McLaren Vale Highlights tour, Adelaide Sightseeing Tour and Adelaide Hills and Hahndorf tour, to name a few.

Kangaroo Island one, two and three-day tour options include Kangaroo Island Odyssey's luxury 4WD tours, Kangaroo Island Adventure Tours and a range of SeaLink Coach tours.

The website also features information on three, four and seven night Murray River cruises on-board the PS Murray Princess.

The SeaLink South Australia Chinese website provides a direct booking link to SeaLink's official booking website or visitors can send a request in Chinese to SeaLink's Mandarin speaking operations team.

According to SeaLink's Head of Sales and Marketing, Richard Doyle, “with China a key market for our South Australian transport and tourism operations, we are confident that providing our Chinese website will help the Chinese market understand our products and with the increase of direct flights to Adelaide from China Southern, we envisage visitor numbers will grow further resulting in increased direct bookings from our Chinese consumers. “

“The website will expand the national SeaLink Travel Group brand within the China market and help achieve on-going long term growth for all our businesses.” Continues Mr Doyle.
