The third round of SA’s Great State Voucher program involving close to 250 operators from across the state includes an ‘immerse yourself Coonawarra wine tour’. While full details of the unique regional experience is yet to be unlocked via southaustralia.com, the offering falls under the $100 category. This time the allocation process moved to a ballot system, where individuals last week registered to secure either a $50, $100 or $200 voucher. Those who have since been successful in the ballot can begin to book their SA experience from Tuesday, April 27. The public has until 11.59pm on Sunday, May 23 to do so. RELATED NEWS: SA’s third Great State Voucher program launches in time for winter Importantly, the popular initiative works to showcase some of South Australia’s most eclectic, innovative and iconic tourism operators, including those dotted in the country SA. This includes experiences in the Limestone Coast. Other regional attractions include shark cage diving, swimming with sea lions, multi-day tours of the Murray River or the Outback, snorkelling, stand-up paddle boarding, gin making, wine masterclasses or cooking schools. SA Tourism Commission CE Rodney Harrex shared how the two previous voucher rounds in SA resulted in a significant impact on tourism operators. “Our focus this time is on hosted tour and experience operators – a sector that has been hit particularly hard by the downturn in international and interstate visitation,” he explained. The two previous voucher rounds targeted accommodation across SA – which resulted in more than 62,000 room night bookings created and a flow-on of more than $32 million spent in the state’s visitor economy. “We are giving South Australians the chance to experience SA like they never have before – to tell their friends and get even more people booking up with local tour and experience operators,” Mr Harrex said. “I want to thank all of the participating operators, and I hope this – our latest targeted stimulus package – drives positive outcomes for your business.” For further details and a list of experiences visit southaustralia.com/voucher.
