Icon Tourism Consulting

Welcome to Australia… where your neighbours are sand dunes, turquoise water and miles of empty coastline 🚐💨 Out here on the Coral Coast, a 4WD is your ticket to freedom - waking up to ocean views, rolling straight onto the sand, and not another soul in sight. This is the road trip dream, the way Australia does it best. *Post manually!

🚀 AI won’t replace Destination Marketers.
But Destination Marketers who embrace AI will replace those who don’t.

That’s the reality our industry is facing. The tools are here, they’re powerful, and they’re reshaping how we understand markets, engage travellers, and turn awareness into bookings.

For us in destination marketing, it’s not about being replaced by technology; it’s about being replaced by people who know how to use it.

💡 I’ve just launched a small, invite-only LinkedIn group called AI & Tourism Think Tank (Australia)—a space for industry professionals to share ideas, tools, wins, and lessons around AI in tourism.

It’s not a place for sales pitches—just a low-pressure, high-value community to learn as the industry evolves.

You don’t need to be an AI expert, just curious and open to experimenting.
