It’s been a time to celebrate for the Quicksilver Group! It was a wonderful night of recognition at the prestigious 2012 Queensland Tourism Awards in being named the State’s Best “Major Tour and Transport Operator”, announced in Brisbane on 23 November.

Quicksilver Group Managing Director, Tony Baker said, “We’re extremely proud to be acknowledged with this award for outstanding contribution to tourism, continued commitment to quality customer service, innovation and environmentally sustainable practices.

It has been a challenging period for our industry, and this award belongs with our fantastic staff from the front line to behind the scenes who make sure we really do provide the best experiences across a range of Great Barrier Reef touring options every day for our visitors.”

In addition to this award, Pro Dive Cairns was recognised amongst Queensland’s best Adventure Tourism Operators and the Group’s destinational campaign in China was also awarded finalist for excellence in Tourism Marketing.

As a result of winning the Major Tour and Transport Operator award, the Quicksilver Group will now represent Queensland in the nation’s peak industry awards, the Australian Tourism Awards to be announced in February 2013.

The Quicksilver Group was inducted into the Australian Tourism Awards Hall of Fame and Queensland Tourism Awards Hall of Fame for this category in 2009 and 2008 respectively.  Re-entering the awards indicates our ongoing commitment to the provision of excellence in quality tourism experiences.
