The Scenic Rim has again been named among the world’s most loved travel destinations.
It’s been ranked 50th out of 21,330 global destinations by the Tourism Sentiment Index, an innovative research study using cutting edge artificial intelligence technology.
The study examined 1.6 billion unbiased and unprompted online conversations, interactions and consumer-generated content pieces, to determine how people genuinely feel about the places they visit.
Scenic Rim Mayor Greg Christensen says this announcement is a fantastic accomplishment for the region.
“We are so proud to again be acknowledged for delivering outstanding visitor experiences that get people talking, sharing and recommending.”
“You can’t beat word-of-mouth promotion, and our visitors are clearly loving the incredible experiences delivered so successfully by our tourism operators, businesses and communities.”
Being ranked 50th in the top 100 global destinations is the latest in a string of tourism accolades for the region.
Mayor Greg Christensen says the Scenic Rim was named by global travel authority, Lonely Planet, as one of the top 10 regions to visit in 2022 especially because of the authenticity of experiences and the people.
“We are also proud to have four of our towns, Boonah, Canungra, Kalbar and Tamborine Mountain, currently competing as finalists in the 2022 Queensland Tourism Industry Council’s Top Tourism Town Awards. I urge everyone to vote for their favourite.”
“To be recognised by an ever-growing list of international tourism organisations as a world-class destination is an incredible endorsement for our region which the whole community should be proud of.”
“This achievement isn’t just for accommodation providers and tour operators, but everyone a visitor might interact with, from our baristas to service station staff, and our friendly locals saying hello, so I want to thank everyone in the Scenic Rim for making our region so inviting and a place that people love to talk about.”
