The Brisbane Story
Bellarine Peninsula Beginnings
Tim Oakes was hired to open our Australia Branch, which was our third global sales office. Tim worked remotely from Geelong (pictured here on the Bellarine Peninsula) where his daughter was born, getting the branch registered to trade in Australia and commencing recruitment
Shared Office Space in Brisbane
With strong business links in the lifestyle city Brisbane, Tim landed us some shared space with an engineering firm in the riverside suburb of Toowong. This was to be the strategic base of Inside Travel Group in Australia for years to come
Moving Up in the World
The official opening of our own office in Toowong, beautifully appointed for a growing team.
The branch went from strength to strength on the back of being well received in the Aussie outbound leisure travel market for customized Japan itineraries.
About Brisbane
Our sub-tropical capital of “God’s Country” (the state of Queensland) is home to 2.3 million and is the envy of our southern-state cousins.
Unlike the more beachy retreats of the Sunshine and Gold Coasts, Brisbane itself is a river city known for its friendly residents and early morning exercise.
The city boasts a bewildering list of seemingly never-ending events and exhibitions all year round, culminating in the Brisbane Festival and Riverfire event in September, Australia’s leading international Arts festival.
With an average winter daily high of 21 C, Brisbane is Australia’s second most sunny city – and averages over twice as many sunshine hours per year than London.
This makes it ideal for watersports, hiking, island 4WD’ing and anything outdoors. Brisbane residents share their stilted, breezy homes with possums and the occasional carpet python, and their bay with dolphins.
