Are we there yet?

Why regional and rural tourism is about to boom and how business and Government can take advantage.

Are we there yet?

If you grew up in Australia in the 1980s or earlier, when air travel was expensive, chances are your holidays involved a family car trip and the refrain: ‘Are we there yet?’. Well, the evidence strongly suggests that car-based tourism within Australia will soon be back—in a big way.

With regional and rural Australia set to be benefit from travel-deprived city dwellers, are our regions and brands ready? Redhanded has put together this document to highlight why this is likely and how to capitalise on it.

In our recent thought piece we look at five reasons why we believe this is true:

  1. Lowest fuel prices in decades.
  2. No overseas travel.
  3. Get out of the City and reconnect.
  4. Support local, support regional.
  5. Renewed appreciation for the natural environment.
