High level changes at G Adventures.
Adrian Piotto has been appointed as Managing Director Australia & New Zealand for G Adventures, while outgoing MD Belinda Ward relocates to the UK to take up the position of Vice President of Industry Sales & Ope
rations for the adventure company.
Piotto brings with him 19 years of travel industry experience, much of which reaped through roles at The Travel Corporation where he was General Manager of Busabout, Haggis and Shamrocker Adventures Australia and New Zealand, Head of Sales for Contiki Australia and most recently Head of Sales for Trafalgar Australia.
“I have been drawn to G Adventures for their innovative, dynamic and disruptive attitude toward business processes and how as a business they can be transparently successful in sustainable tourism, giving back to the very people and communities that truly are giving travellers real experiences,” Piotto said.
“There is a huge amount of potential for growth in our Australia and New Zealand product; the new National Geographic Journeys in particular have an amazing amount of potential.”
