Listing an Australian day tour or guided experience
If you are interested in having your tour product listed on The Big Bus tour and travel guide, please email [email protected]. We currently focus our direct sales effort on Australia’s major cities, and channel all regional sales through our affiliate partnership with Viator.
Editorial contributors
If you are interested in writing for The Big Bus, please send us an email request for a copy of our contributor guidelines. Please include a short paragraph about yourself and your travels, and links to your previous published work and/or blog.
We are also interested in hearing from international travel bloggers who would like to contribute to our Big Five City Guide series.
Travel & corporate video production
Video brings a destination or travel product to life. It lifts the travel experience off the page and allows your potential clients, customers and stakeholders to engage directly with the product or destination.
If you want to harness the power of video for your travel business, product or website but you’re not sure where to start, we make the process easy. Through Peppercorn Productions (publisher of The Big Bus), we offer a full suite of cost-effective HD travel and corporate video production services, with an emphasis on location-based work. We will also integrate your video across our website, mailing list and social media channels.
Travel text
Travel content marketing is our passion. Great travel writing is so much more than simply describing a destination and assuming readers will be interested. Your content has to offer the reader something. There has to be a very good reason for the reader to invest their valuable time in reading your message. With a team of writers nationally, we provide engaging travel text and copywriting services for a variety of uses and applications.
Travel images
Peppercorn Productions offers an extensive library of original, cost-effective travel images to the travel trade. Alternatively, you can commission a photo project exclusively for your use in conjunction with a writing assignment.
Travel podcasts
Are you looking to join the audio revolution? The long-form nature of podcasts (as opposed to the short-form nature of social media posts etc) is making them an increasingly popular way for tour and travel providers, and DMOs to add real value to their content offering. Peppercorn Productions provides a cost-effective podcast production service.
Blog content management
A well produced blog with regular, relevant and engaging content can improve your search engine rankings, enhance your brand, inspire your customers and lead to bookings. However, sustaining a blog can be challenging for SMEs with limited staff and production resources. We make it easy by offering a suite of blog management services.
