The New Zealand Tourism Board has been felicitated as the top one by Virtuoso which is a US luxury travel network. The board has been commended for its high level of engagement with customers and other stakeholders. Virtuoso has now inked an agreement with the board where the latter will providemanagement training to employees at the former to better publicize New Zealand’s luxury offerings. New Zealanders themselves currently make up the top visitors to Australia but this is set to change with newer arrivals from Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland soaring year on year. More than a million are expected to visit Australia this year from that region.
