Meet the cast of Travel Guides 2023

Travel Guides is back for a new season - and there's a new cast member in the mix!

WATCH BELOW: Travel Guides 2019 | The Fren Family visit Germany

{title}

The Bachelor's Locky Gilbert and Irena Srbinovska get married

Cate blanchett at the 2023 oscars, janelle shows up to the mafs dinner party ready for revenge, louis tomlinson calls james corden out, meet the dancing with the stars 2019 cast, mkr amanda confirms the truth about her scary cancer diagnosis, justin lacko addresses what everyone is thinking, mafs jules tells: how things ended up with me and justin, celine dion has something to say about these startling photos.

Fans adore the show's hilarious cast as they travel beyond their comfort zones to explore random holiday destinations around the world. 

Now, Travel Guides is back for its latest season and will  return to Channel 9 on Wednesday, April 19 at 7:30pm .

While fans are very keen to see the friendly faces on our screens once more, there have been some changes to the traditional  Travel Guides cast.

Cowgirl Mel - who appears on the show with her identical twin sister, Stack - is taking some time off from this season to be with her one-year-old daughter, Savannah. 

However, Stack's new partner remains in the family, with brother Josh joining the team in Mel's place.

With that in mind, meet the Travel Guides cast for 2023...

Meet Josh! He'll join sister Stack in place of Mel this season.

Stack and Josh

There will be a switch-up to the traditional pairing of identical twins and country cowgirls, Stack and Mel. This year, you'll see Stack and Josh. While not an identical twin, Josh is the sisters' younger brother.

As was the case with his older siblings, Josh is a little wary about travelling beyond the family's home in outback Queensland. In fact, he's never been out of Australia (until now).

While Stack and Mel were more comfortable at a local rodeo, they felt like fish out of water on their Travel Guides adventures. And Josh will be just the same! 

Will he be as game as his sisters? We're sure this construction worker will do just fine.

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 19 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 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 wife Cathy for over 30 years, and their two kids, Victoria and Jonathan, are always along for the journey.

Their family grew earlier this year, 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-janetta-travel-guides

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-teng-travel-guides

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 6 starts on Wednesday, April 19 at 7:30pm on Channel 9 and 9 Now .

Travel Guides is officially returning in 2024 - and you might recognise new duo Karly and Bri

Nine has announced that Travel Guides is officially returning in 2024, giving viewers the perfect way to see the world from the comfort of their living rooms.

The seventh season is coming hot on the heels of its second consecutive Logie win, and two new Guides will joining the fan-favourites – and you might recognise them.

Stream complete seasons of Travel Guides for free on 9Now.

Karly and Bri are two besties who met while filming Beauty and the Geek a couple of years ago, and have been inseparable ever since.

Like many Aussies, Karly and Bri have never travelled further afield than Bali.

Speaking to 9Entertainment about their arrival Karly said: "Getting the phone call to be Travel Guides was a surreal moment for us as we're such big fans of the show.

Travel Guides 2024 Karly and Bri beauty and the geek

We haven't done much travelling around the world - we've pretty much only been to Bali - so to be able to see the world in all its glory is a once in a lifetime opportunity. And to do it with my best friend is amazing - we're so grateful."

Bri said there's no doubt the duo will bring "some sugar and spice and a barrel of laughs".

"I'd describe us as chaotic travellers. And when we open our mouths we're never really sure what's going to come out. But we can promise young, feminine wild-woman energy," she added.

Karly appeared on Beauty and the Geek in 2022, and won the show alongside Aaron. 

Bri appeared in the same season alongside her geek, Chris .

They will be bringing high energy, total glam and wide-eyed wonder as they explore every corner of the world with the rest of the gang.

Featuring both extraordinary overseas adventures and domestic delights, the seventh season of Travel Guides will also see most our favourite travel critics return, including Newcastle's budget-hunting Fren family, happy-go-lucky couple Matt and Brett, retired jetsetters Kevin and Janetta, and best mates Kev, Dorian and Teng.

Beauty and the geek 2022 final aaron and karly

The announcement comes after fan-favourites Stack and Mel announced their departure from the show earlier this year.

"The time unfortunately has come for us to put away our passports, hang our hats up, stay home make some money, pay our mortgage, build some sheds, do some fencing... But most importantly be around for our kiddos," they said.

EXCLUSIVE: The first look inside Victoria from Travel Guides wedding

Stack and Mel said while Travel Guides has changed their lives for the better, they are in different stages of their lives now especially as "busy mums to [their] wonderful kids Royce, Wyatt and Savannah".

"Since we've started on the program back in 2016, we were young whipper snappers – 26-years-old, no care in the world and living each day as it comes!" they said.

"Since then we've both learned heaps. Been around the world five times made over 50 eps of Travel Guides and now have a Logie under our belt – who woulda thought?"

The sisters promised that while their televised travels might be over, "this is not the end for [them]".

"We are very competitive rodeo athletes so we might just turn up in a rodeo in your town," they teased.
