I have had a busy week last week hosting a group of ATEC (Australian Tourism Export Council) travel agents on behalf of Tourism Tasmania.

It was an absolute pleasure to spend three days with a lovely bunch of people who sell Tasmanian product to their customers in Australia, New Zealand, the United States and UK/Europe.

Our familiarisation tour incorporated a variety of product and included the Barilla Bay Oysters; Candy Abalone; Cascade Brewery; Lenna of Hobart; Tasman Island Cruises; Port Arthur Historic Lavender Farm; Port Arthur Historic Site; Tasmanian Devil Conservation Park (Unzoo); Bangor Oyster & Wine Shed; The Wicked Cheese Company and Frogmore Creek.

We enjoyed beautiful food, met passionate operators and even got to experience the Southern ocean on a freezing day with Tasman Island Cruises.  A tough week at the office!  Xx
