World Travel Awards – 11 Green Winners
Leading travel brands and companies scooped the world’s highest global honours at the World Travel Awards final in Turks & Caicos on 2 December.
The award presentation was the culmination of the 2008 World Travel Awards Grand Tour of regional ceremonies which have taken place during the year in Australia, Africa, Central America, China, North America, Europe, China and Middle East.
“Nothing can compare with winning one of the World Travel Awards”, said Graham E. Cooke, president and founder. “Its quite simply the highest accolade any location or travel company can ever hope to achieve and says more about them than any brochure can communicate, any picture can mirror, any personal testimonial can express.”
Voting came from 167,000 travel professionals worldwide. Aim of World Travel Awards, established 15 years ago, is to ensure that brands exceed expectations in many ways.
“There are a number of key factors that transform a well-run company into an excellent one and these are recognised, encouraged and underlined in the World Travel Awards”, said Cooke.

1. World’s Leading Conservation Company Shamwari Game Reserve, South Africa
