Members of the tourism community have a wonderful relationship with the volunteers at Tourism Noosa’s Visitor Information Centre (VIC) and are encouraged to attend regular famils, resulting in visitors gaining a personal experience of their business.

With discounts from local restaurants and retailers, Volunteers are encouraged to soak in as much of our region as possible.

Tourism Noosa is also keen to acknowledge the traditional owners of the land and pays respect to their elders – past, present and future.

Each evening at 7pm “Welcome To Country”, a short film shown on the big screen, is both impressive and informative and something for visitors and locals to enjoy.

Whilst some of the volunteers have been assisting tourists in the region for over 30 years, there is always room for new recruits.

Meeting like-minded passionate people, to enjoy regular team bonding “Buzz Nights” and learning all about what our region has to offer is part of the volunteer experience.

New volunteers receive a six-week training period and are asked to commit to just 4 hours a week.

Being amongst this experienced team of highly knowledgeable locals, is literally spending time with incredible living history books.
