  • (1888PressRelease) May 03, 2011 - Howard J. Smith, Owner and Tour Guide for Cradle Coast Tours, has been selected as an Honored Member of the Biltmore Who's Who Executive and Professional Registry. The selection recognizes Howard J. Smith's commitment to excellence in the Tourism industry.

    Smith, who identified a need and desire to get into the tourism industry, began his venture in January of 2004 as a tour guide.

    Having a true passion for hospitality, Smith has taken on this full-time position as a way to show off the area in which he lives, one of the last true temperate wilderness areas left in the world. His guided tours, which are personalized for all his customers and groups, include two-hour hikes across some of the best sites in Tasmania. In addition to providing a number of different personalized tours, he also does all of the business's legwork himself, including the marketing and financing.

    After volunteering as a guide in the Sydney Olympics in 2000, Smith knew that he wanted to pursue a different career path. A former geography and economics teacher, his career move couldn't have been more extreme.

    "I was so inspired to show off my backyard," Smith said. "It is a lovely area for tourists."

    Hoping to extend to three and six day tours, Smith looks forward to the future his business by working hard and making sure that all of his customers are more than satisfied with his guided tours.

    Smith is a certified tourist, a member of his local Tourism Council and an active volunteer with his local Lions Club and Salvation Army. He's won numerous state tourism awards, including a Start-Up Business Award, a Best Local Tourist Operator Award and several customer service and marketing awards.
