Australia a tourist hot spot

AUSTRALIA is the "must-visit" travel destination in the Asia-Pacific according to a new survey commissioned by Visa International.
More than 4500 people from nine Asia Pacific countries and territories were asked to name their top five travel destinations in the region.

Sixty-three per cent of those surveyed voted Australia as the place they most wanted to visit.

Australia was ranked first or second place for all source destinations, confirming its widespread appeal as a travel destination.

Visa general manager for Australia, New Zealand and South Pacific Chris Clark said the survey is "good news for Australia's tourism industry."

"The diversity of Australia helps to make it a 'must see' holiday destination for our neighbours in Asia," he said.

"Australia offers a variety of unique experiences for younger and travellers alike."
