Inspiring Malaysian travellers to experience Australia like a local, the destinations in the list are based on Tourism Australia’s top performing social media posts, and endorsed by Australian talent like Rose Byrne, King Stingray, Magdalena Roze, Curtis Stone and more.

Tourism Australia’s social media channels reach over 19 million global followers, and so the Australia Recommends list is an insight into where visitors from around the world are eager to explore. Whether it’s discovering First Nations culture at Uluru, accessible experiences in the Blue Mountains, or eco tours in the Daintree Rainforest. 

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.

Tourism Australia’s Country Manager for Malaysia, Karen Saw, said collaborating with well-known Australians was key to ensuring experiences featured on the list were truly ‘Aussie-approved’. 

“When travelling abroad, many of us appreciate how useful a local recommendation can be, so we’ve sought out the expertise of well-known Australians to share their most memorable experiences and travel tips, so visitors can explore Australia like a local.”

“We’re launching our new travel list at a time when many people around the world are considering their travel plans for the year ahead, and we’re hoping to inspire a holiday Down Under. Our new Australia Recommends list is just a taste of what Australia has to offer visitors from abroad.”

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, was thrilled to share his memorable trip to Australia’s Red Centre as part of the list.  

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.”

Australia Recommends: 15 Places to Come & Say G’day in 2024 will be published on Australia.com and shared with Tourism Australia’s global audience of social media followers.
