We’ve Got Australia in Your Pocket—Literally Picture this: you're traveling through Australia, wondering where to eat, what to see, and how to make the most of your time. We’ve got you covered, mate. GoingToPlaces.com delivers everything you need—tourist attractions, accommodation, community events, and so much more—straight to your palm. It all started in 2012, when I launched a successful BnB business and learned first-hand what travellers really needed. Hosting guests, 80% of whom were international tourists, opened my eyes to a massive gap: people constantly asked for info on local services, businesses, and how to find Australia’s hidden gems. So, I stopped just answering questions—I built solutions. In August 2016, I published my first travel app, Robe SA, on the Apple and Google app stores. It was a hit. From there, things snowballed faster than a kangaroo on a downhill slope: December 2016 brought The Great Ocean Road Victoria and Kangaroo Island SA. Not long after, apps for Barossa Valley SA and the Limestone Coast joined the lineup. Fast forward to 2024, and we’ve turned those early wins into an entire digital ecosystem covering South Australia. Want the best places to eat, drink, shop, or visit? We’ve got it. Need directions or activities? Easy. Here’s the kicker: this ecosystem isn’t just a local success—it’s gone global. Years of data collection and innovation earned us a spot among the top 45 entries (out of 500+ submissions worldwide!) in the Taiwan Tourism Innovation Awards. Not too shabby, eh? Our mission has never changed: deliver the guide to Australia’s towns and regions into your hand. Whether you’re a traveler or a local, we help you discover what makes each region unique—and how to make every moment unforgettable. So, go ahead. Explore Australia the way it’s meant to be seen—with GoingToPlaces.com by your side.
