Context
‘Beautiful One Day, Perfect the Next’ – Tourism Queensland slogan.
Tourism helps promote the location and bring in much needed money to the state economy. In 2018, Queensland had 2.7 million visitors from overseas countries. Tourism helps create income, infrastructure and ultimately jobs for the residents of the state.
You have been asked by Tourism Queensland to design a four-day Trip Plan for international tourists (two adults and a child) visiting the Brisbane and Gold Coast regions. You are to access various resources, such as bus or train timetables on the internet, and use maps provided to design a day trip itinerary for tourists to see sights around Brisbane.
Task
The task requires you to:
• design an itinerary to visit major Brisbane venues
• the itinerary is to include times for lunch in a scenic location, shopping and a ride on the City Cats
• use the map provided in the stimulus that will also be provided to the tourists, so the itinerary must also include the grid references (eg: F4) for each location
• select the locations so that travelling from one to the next is convenient and the tourists are not crossing all over the CBD
• include directions for the tourists to travel from one destination to the next which details transport method (walk/train/bus/ferry), compass direction (N, S, E, W), distance and street names to travel along if applicable
• create a budget for the trip to include all shopping, food, accommodation and activities
