Our Certificate II in Tourism students recently took part in an exciting excursion to the WA Tourism Information Centre and a Perth history and street art walking tour. The experience provided valuable insights into the many career paths within the tourism industry, from booking service advisors and tour guides to media management roles.

Students found the day both informative and engaging, with many gaining a new appreciation for the hidden history and art within the city. One student reflected, "The walking tour was very entertaining, and I learnt so much about Perth that I never knew existed!" Another noted how the excursion highlighted the flexibility and adventure that a career in tourism can offer, with some expressing interest in exploring tour guiding further—particularly in remote and nature-based settings like Ningaloo and Margaret River.

The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with students recommending the experience for future tourism students. A few even suggested expanding the excursion to Fremantle or other unique tourism destinations in WA.

A big thank you to the WA Tourism Information Centre team and our knowledgeable tour guide Adie from Oh Hey! WA for making this an inspiring and insightful day!
