Media educational program
TTNQ’s media hosting program enables media from our key markets to experience the destination to create compelling stories for their audiences. Each itinerary is individually tailored to meet the story needs and audience of visiting media while showcasing Tropical North Queensland’s World Heritage areas, outback, culture and lifestyle.
The program hosts journalists from influential consumer and trade publications, broadcast crews for television and online channels, and digital influencers with a strong following on social media or blog platforms. We aim to host media channels whose audiences align with and have deep reach into our target consumer audiences. Freelance journalists need a commissioned story angle to participate.

Birdsong, fresh air and slow mornings. Sometimes the best soundtrack is the one nature gives you.

Standing in the presence of Australia`s tallest single-drop waterfall is something you`ll never forget.
Wallaman Falls is one of North Queensland`s most spectacular natural wonders, where water plunges 268 metres into the rainforest below. Whether you`re taking in the view from the lookout or tackling the hike to the base, every angle is unforgettable. 🌿✨
