Tourism Australia Recommends ‘15 Places to Come & Say G’day in 2024’

Tourism Australia has teamed up with well-known Aussies to launch its new annual travel list, Australia Recommends: 15 Places to Come & Say G’day in 2024.

Tourism Australia launches ‘Australia Recommends: 15 Places to Come & Say G’day in 2024’ to spotlight the wonders of Australia as suggested by locals, at the forefront of Indian travelers. The destinations in the list are based on Tourism Australia’s top-performing social media posts, and endorsed by Australian talents like Rose Byrne, King Stingray, Magdalena Roze, Curtis Stone, and more.

Partnering with well-known Australian talent, (many part of Tourism Australia’s Friends of Australia advocacy program) all 15 destinations on the list are endorsed by famous Aussies who have shared travel anecdotes and memories from their own holidays. Nishant Kashikar, Country Manager – India & Gulf, Tourism Australia said collaborating with well-known Australians was key to ensuring experiences featured on the list were truly ‘Aussie-approved’.  

“No one knows a destination better than its locals. This is why travelers consider local recommendations as a sure way to have the most authentic experience of a place. Given this, we got Australian personalities who are most loved globally to share their top experiences and travel tips with ‘Australia Recommends’ so visitors can truly explore Australia like a local.”

“This list comes at a time when Indians are drawing up their travel goals and bucket lists for 2024. Our aim is to spotlight the wonders of Australia as suggested by locals that truly makes it a destination like no other. We hope this will inspire Indians to Come and Say G’day, and experience the legendary Aussie way of life.”

Roy Kellaway from King Stingray, the Yolŋu surf rock band from Arnhem Land, who last year recorded the Down Under (Under One Sun) track for Tourism Australia’s Come and Say G’day international campaign, shared his memorable trip to Australia’s Red Centre. “We love the chance to shine a spotlight on our wonderful country, so we’re stoked to be involved in the launch of Australia Recommends. There are so many must-see destinations in our local Northern Territory, but for us, Uluru is top of the list – it just takes your breath away. It’s the heart of Australia, and offers the unique opportunity to hear stories and learn about culture from the local Anangu people.”
