Kool Tours Joins the Hall of Fame! Celebrating Three Gold Wins at the South Australian Tourism Awards

 

At Kool Tours, we are absolutely thrilled to announce that we’ve been inducted into the Hall of Fame at the South Australian Tourism Awards! Winning Gold for three consecutive years is an honour that means so much to us. It’s a recognition of our commitment to providing authentic and meaningful Aboriginal cultural experiences, and we couldn't be prouder of the team that has made this possible.

 

A National Spotlight at the 2024 Qantas Australian Tourism Awards

 

This achievement comes with an exciting new chapter: Kool Tours will represent South Australia at the 2024 Qantas Australian Tourism Awards, taking place right here in Adelaide! Competing on the national stage in the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Tourism cat, March 2025.  This category gives us the chance to showcase South Australia's unique cultural heritage to a wider audience. We’re excited to celebrate our beautiful landscapes and stories with visitors and industry leaders from across Australia.

 

Partnering with Other Award-Winning Operators for a Complete Cultural Experience

 

In addition to the Hall of Fame honour, we’re also thrilled to announce partnerships with other Gold Medal-winning tourism operators, including Spirit of the Coorong and Sealink. These collaborations allow us to offer a richer, more diverse experience for visitors who want to explore South Australia's natural beauty and cultural depth.

 

Our Mission at Kool Tours

 

For us, sharing Aboriginal culture isn’t just about showcasing our heritage—it’s about creating connections. We believe every visitor should leave with a greater understanding of the deep ties between our people and our land. We take pride in offering experiences that are both educational and inspiring, allowing our guests to see South Australia through a new lens of appreciation and respect.

  

A Heartfelt Thank You

 

We want to extend our sincerest thanks to all of you—our guests, supporters, and community. Your enthusiasm and support are what make this journey so meaningful, and your positive feedback continues to inspire us. Winning Gold for three years in a row and being inducted into the Hall of Fame is a shared victory, and we couldn’t have achieved it without each of you. As we look forward to the Qantas Australian Tourism Awards in 2024, we are more excited than ever to continue sharing the beauty, stories, and spirit of South Australia’s Aboriginal culture with visitors from near and far. Join us for a journey unlike any other and discover the wonders of South Australia through the eyes of those who have cared for this land for generations.

 

We hope to see you soon on a Kool Tours adventure!
