Your dream of visiting Australia just might be closer than you think, thanks to a new online contest called “My Aussie Experience Travel Contest.” The format is simple: In 100 words or less describe what your ultimate Australia experience would be in one of nine popular travel destinations Down Under, including Sydney, Kangaroo Island, and Adelaide.
The best part? The winner receives a Qantas Vacations travel voucher for up to $12,000 USD towards their ultimate Aussie vacation.
The winning entry will be selected from the top-voted entries for each of the nine destinations. A jury composed of representatives from the three sponsoring organizations – Ensemble Travel Group, Qantas Vacations, and Tourism Australia – will determine the winner. Contest deadline is 5:00 p.m. PT, June 7, 2012. No purchase is necessary to enter or win.
To enter and/or vote, visit www.aussieexperiences.com.
In addition to the contest, the website is full of helpful travel information, broken down by region and experience in Australia, and supported by related travel offers. Other highlights include:
A “discover” tab connects visitors to a live events calendar and restaurant guide, both powered by Frommers.
A “best of” section showcases the ultimate in popular activities such as beaches, dive sites, and outdoor activities.
The home page features an engaging blog, written by an Aussie native and updated at least weekly.
And there is even a way to connect with an experienced destination expert via the website.
