Premier Travel Tasmania is actively participating in responsible tourism.

We acknowledge the beauty of our island and are keen to ensure that we make a minimal impact on the environment.

The energy, water usage, and waste from our business are being measured to assess how these can be further reduced to cut greenhouse gas emissions without jeopardising our high level of service.

Through our regional GreenTea Project we successfully participated in the international Green Globe Lite scheme and are proud to have achieved full certification in May 2009.

We welcome Thomas Lee, as Marketing Manager for Asia, to our team.
