Whitsunday Segway Tours Claims Gold

Whitsunday Segway Tours was awarded the Gold title for Eco Tourism on Saturday evening at the Whitsunday Tourism Awards, an honour owner Zak Kelly accepted proudly.

“I am super proud to win this award as it had been over five years since the business had won something this important,” shared Zak.

“My wife, Vhari and I work so hard to make the business truly the best it can be in sustainability, service quality and customer service.”

In the past, Whitsunday Segway Tours has been presented with numerous Excellence in Sustainable Tourism Gold Awards, entered the Hall of Fame in 2018 and was awarded the Steve Irwin Award for Eco Tourism in 2019.

“It’s the small things that all add up to make the business as ecofriendly and low carbon as possible – all these impacts are recorded and verified,” explained Zak.

Whitsunday Segway Tours provides a unique and enjoyable experience for a wide range of tourists from various backgrounds and are the sole Segway tour in Australia to operate in a rainforest national park. November will mark a decade since the business was established, with Zak expressing a warm thank you and gratitude to all their customers both past, present and future.

“I most of all thank my prior and future Segway tour guests, my amazing wife Vhari, my business partner, support businesses, Tourism Whitsundays, government departments, local travel agents and the Whitsunday community for their support - I live and breathe Whitsundays and am completely passionate about the area and it’s future.

We can all agree the Whitsundays is an amazing place, and Whitsunday Segway Tours showcases the region in its own unique Eco Tourism sustainable way for locals and visitors alike.”
