Taking travellers from dreaming to doing.

Testimonial
- The South Australian Tourism Commission partnered with Fairfax to tell the State’s tourism stories in a unique way through their network of online platforms. Fairfax's audience insights identified what messages work, when and for whom they work best. Insights that identify the reasons people travel and why they travel to South Australia in particular are essential in developing tourism in our geography. Fairfax's understanding and analysis of digital behaviours have provided us with a successful, unique approach to engage prospective travellers to South Australia.
