History
Established in 2000.
From humble beginnings, Go West Tours is the result of a passion for providing excellent customer service, and providing guests with a memorable experience, not just a destination.
As the business grew Terry and Fiona focused on selecting & inducting tour guides who could engage with, inform and entertain guests throughout the day. Today, Go West Tours still upholds this high standard when recruiting new team members.
In 2005 Go West Tours became the first tour operator to provide a fully mobile translation service, for non-English speaking guests and to this day innovation remains a strong area of focus. Today, all touring vehicles are fitted with complimentary Wi-Fi, and Go West remains the only small bus operator in Melbourne to fit their buses with customised upgraded seating, providing a safer and more comfortable journey for guests.
Meet the Business Owner: Terry S.
Hi, as the founder & Managing Director of Go West Tours, I'm delighted that you're looking at this page & learning more about our amazing tours. I started in travel as a European Tour Manager in 1997, but my passion for sharing interesting information & good times with people dates back much further. In past lives I have worked as a swimming pool & spa installer, gas consumption analyst & mail sorter, so I'm truly grateful that I managed to find & settle in the travel industry. When not working to continuously improve & grow Go West Tours you might find me on (or nearby) a cricket field, or perhaps enjoying a full-bodied red wine with some friends.
