As interstate travel restrictions start to ease in Australia, many of us will be hitting the road – literally. The good news is Tourism Australia has released several road trips to inspire and get Aussies back into holiday mode. In fact, a recent survey indicated over 60 percent of Australians are keen to explore their own country once restrictions are lifted. Traveling domestically will also help boost local businesses so it’s a win win for all!
Which brings us to the launch of the Karma Groups’ exciting brand new travel product, Karma Nomad – we invite you to contact our Karma Concierge office to find out more.
