What makes our products and services unique

Given operational experience in the ICT industries, Leisure Solutions® promotes the use of new digital technologies to enhance the ‘geotourist’ experience.
Through this process, Leisure Solutions® strives to build relationships with other economies that are pre-eminent as practitioners, particularly in the Greater China Region, specifically China and Taiwan.
Our concerns about innovation, responsibility and sustainability
As a longstanding, ecocertified member of Ecotourism Australia Ltd, Leisure Solutions® is committed to ecotourism accreditation.
Ecotourism is ecologically sustainable tourism with a primary focus on experiencing natural areas that fosters environmental and cultural understanding, appreciation and conservation. Ecotourism Australia believes that the ultimate definition of ecotourism is compliance with the core criteria stated within its Eco Certification Program.
Leisure Solutions® supports the proposition that geotourism is also sustainable tourism that sustains or enhances the distinctive geographical character of a place—its environment (underpinned by landscape and geology) , heritage, aesthetics, culture, and the well-being of its residents.
