Adventure World is thrilled to announce Travellers Choice travel advisor, Sharon Puckeridge from St George Travel in Sydney is the winner of our Raise, Sell & Win incentive promotion and will be off on a 13-day Authentic Vietnam journey for two, featuring an exclusive visit to the Animals Asia Bear Sanctuary in Tam Dao.
This incentive challenged Travellers Choice travel advisors with not only selling Adventure World product but also raising awareness for Animals Asia and their work rescuing and rehabilitating bears from the cruel bear bile industry. The challenge was set, encouraging Travellers Choice agents to sell Adventure World product and fundraise for Animals Asia between November 2, 2024, to March 31, 2025. The top-performing agent who met the criteria would be rewarded with the 13-day journey of a lifetime.
“The Adventure World incentive resonated deeply with me,” shared winner Sharon Puckeridge. Adding, “I was so inspired by Animals Asia’s Dr Jill Robinson and her moving presentation at last year’s Travellers Choice conference. I’m particularly excited at the opportunity to become a bear guardian, to meet Bong Bong (Travellers Choice’s very own sponsored bear) and to experience Adventure World’s curated Vietnam itinerary firsthand.”
Christian Hunter, Managing Director at Travellers Choice, added, “We’re proud to have supported Animals Asia alongside Adventure World for the past year. Becoming a moon bear guardian has inspired our members toward more sustainable and purposeful travel. We’re excited for Sharon to meet Bong Bong and witness Animals Asia’s impactful work firsthand, which will undoubtedly resonate with customers interested in future travel to Vietnam.”
The Authentic Vietnam itinerary, custom made by Adventure World, provides a rich cultural immersion, taking the winning travel advisor through the bustling streets of Hanoi, the stunning landscapes of Halong Bay, the historical sites of Hue, the charming town of Hoi An, and the vibrant city of Ho Chi Minh City. A highlight of the trip will be the dedicated visit to the Animals Asia Bear Sanctuary, allowing the winner to connect with the bears and learn more about the critical work being done.
