One of the best ways to find out about another part of the world is when you land on a site that gives you everything you want to know about the place. Another great way is to search for a Facebook group where personalities-in-the-know can enlighten you or you can simply follow along on the discussions that others are having.

One such new group is Nova Scotia – Travel Media. Launched by Tourism Nova Scotia’s Media & Marketing Development Manager, Pam Wamback, this new forum will draw like-minded tourism professionals, especially in the media, for discussions on where Nova Scotia tourism is heading and up-to-date.

Travel Media Site

Listed on the website is a menu of easily-managed links where the world press can access information on Nova Scotia and connect with ongoing tourism junkets. From this site interested media persons can be accommodated in their search for information on Nova Scotia from a first-hand perspective. Tourism Nova Scotia will coordinate accommodation, outdoor activities, interviews, partner introductions, ground transportation and meals that will not only help them fill in the facts but provide them with a lasting impression of one of the friendliest places on the planet.

Media Monitor

Another way the Nova Scotia Tourism is keeping ahead of the pack is with media monitors, updated pages letting interested persons know about upcoming trips and activities. These are continually updated in a press-release format to ensure everyone knows well ahead of time what is going on.

Contact Information

Of course you should hear it from the professionals and Nova Scotia has people that know every inch of the province from Meat Cove, Cape Breton to Cape Forchu Lighthouse near Yarmouth. Check with their Nova Scotia – Travel Media Facebook Group or contact:
