Exploring Group Travel Trends - with Peter Harding

Welcome to our 100th episode!   We are excited to welcome Peter Harding, the Managing Director of Grand Pacific Tours to today's show. 

We'll cover off Peter's career journey, the evolution of coach touring in New Zealand, the shift towards a more discerning and intimate travel experience with smaller vehicle capacities, and the success of their highly rated Ultimate and Premium Economy coach tours. Peter and Michelle delve into marketing strategies, the impact of technology and the importance of sustainable practices.

Peter also shares personal anecdotes and exciting stories from clients' travels.  Keep listening to find out who Peter thinks should play him in a movie about his life in our quick fire round.
