Ross Levi, vice president and executive director of New York State’s Division of Tourism says Australia and New Zealand are key markets for the state’s tourism businesses. ‘We place emphasis on specialist tour operators and travel agents who are essential to our international visitation. The expertise and connections Linkd maintains within the industry, coupled with their ability to tell our stories, will be key in encouraging more travellers to discover New York State.’
New York State is well-known as the home of the country’s largest and most populous city – New York City – and the Niagara Falls, but its varied geography and opportunities for rewarding leisure travel extend much further. These include hiking and biking in the Adirondacks, exploring wine trails in Finger Lakes, a ski and spa getaway in the Catskills, honouring the history of Revolutionary War and Underground Railroad at sites in the Capital-Saratoga region, discovering contemporary art and historic homes in the Hudson Valley, or relaxing on a Long Island beach.
In New Zealand, regional account manager Elaine Patton will be the main point of contact – elaine@linkdtourism.com
