Travel Guides is back for a new season – and so are your favourite cast members!
From the picturesque mountains of Nepal to the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas, the seventh season of the beloved travel show has already delivered its fair share of enviable experiences and hilarious moments.
Alongside Travel Guides’ once-in-a-lifetime itineraries, our favourite friendly faces will also be returning to our screens alongside a few new globe-trotting friends.
As they prepare for their next adventure, scroll down to meet the cast of Travel Guides for 2024.
Karli and Bri
Joining Travel Guides on the road for the first time are Karly and Bri, two besties who met while filming Beauty and the Geek for Nine a couple of years ago and have been inseparable ever since.
“We were roommates on the show, so we had no choice but to be friends,” Bri told our sister site TV WEEK. “We were like the love story from Beauty And The Geek… we walked out best of friends.”
“We bring a different dynamic to the show, and I think people will be pleasantly surprised by us. We might look a certain way on the outside – we like to dress up and look nice – but we also give everything a crack. We are tomboys at heart.”
Matt and Brett
Bona fide travel addicts Matt and Brett joined the show in season four, hailing from Newcastle in New South Wales.
The married couple, who have been together for 20 years now, describe themselves as ‘high-end travellers’ who also love a bargain.
While Matt is organised, and packs his outfits into plastic bags via the suitcase, Brett is much happier going along for the ride, leading to a delightful Bert-and-Ernie energy that makes for great TV.
They’re also hilarious, giving biting commentary, and always making the audience laugh.
The Fren Family
The delightful Fren family have been regulars since season one, bringing immediate joy to the show with their upbeat nature.
Dad Mark is upbeat and forthright, with a knack for negotiating room upgrades. He’s been married to his wife Cathy for over 30 years, and their two kids, Victoria and Jonathan, are always along for the journey.
Their family grew in 2023, with Jonathan marrying his long-term partner, Danielle Clarke.
Other members of the Travel Guides cast Matt, Brett, Kevin, Janetta, Mel, and Stack were all in attendance – too cute!
Kevin and Janetta
‘Holiday snobs’ Kevin and Janetta always bring the laughs.
The pair, who are in their 60s, are passionate wine enthusiasts and seasoned travellers. They’re also avid researchers when it comes to their holidays, making sure they have the best possible experience, so being thrown into strange situations on the show always makes for a good laugh.
They also won’t hesitate to ask for the manager, which has earned them the catchphrase, “We don’t suffer in silence”.
Kev, Dorian, and Teng
Besties Kev, Dorian, and Teng love food, computer games, movies, and music.
Kev is a pop-culture expert, Dorian studies teaching, and Teng is the risk-taker, who keeps deferring university in the hopes of finding a good time.
Their combined heritage spans China, Greece and Vietnam, giving them a unique take on the world when it comes to the show.
Travel Guides Season 7 airs Sundays at 7:00 pm on Nine and 9Now.
