Who are the new and returning cast members of Travel Guides 2026?

These sisters are familiar with throwing themselves into completely new territory given they joined The Block with no renovation experience. 

Eliza and Liberty competed in the 2023 season, going on to start their own podcast Try Before You Die and appearing on the series, Do You Want To Live Forever?
“Cooked Tunas meet Travel Guides!! Huge honour to do a couple of eps with the magnificent OG cast. Our shenanigans will be on your screens in 2026,” they shared on Instagram.

Trading daily swimsuits for an unknown adventure is Love Island’s Callum Hole and Mitch Hibberd. 

The cheeky and boisterous duo met on Love Island in 2022. Prior to reality TV, Mitch was a professional AFL player. But you may remember Callum from his hilarious antics on I’m A Celebrity in 2024. 

“Excited to explore the world, cause a bit of chaos, and probably butcher a few foreign phrases along the way. Strap in this will be naughty,” Callum wrote on Instagram. 

We hear the boys are hoping to visit Ibiza!

A bit of country passion is joining Travel Guides in 2026 with married couple, Brooke and Adam. 

The Aussie country music duo have won multiple Golden Guitar awards, and their album Up, Down & Sideways hit number one on the ARIA charts. Brooke was also a member of The McClymonts.
“We’re so pumped to be joining the amazing Travel Guides team in 26’. Cheers honey, let the adventures begin,” they shared on Instagram.

Original Guides Kevin and Janetta, who proclaim themselves to be “holiday snobs,” are returning for the ninth season. 

After travelling together for more than 40 years, Kevin and Janetta know exactly what they want, and share a taste for the finer things in life.  

If there is an adventure with guaranteed five star accommodation, ships, and luxuries, you know Kevin and Janetta are there!

This fun-loving couple, also from Newcastle, joined the show in 2020 and have brought a fair share of laughs since. 

Matt and Brett have been together for 22 years, tying the knot in New Zealand. The social pair can strike up a conversation with anyone, and they never fight – because Matt’s always right. 

The pair adore coffee, shopping, kayaking, karaoke, cruises, bushwalks and a good meal.

This family unit includes dad Mark, mum Cathy, and siblings Victoria and Jono. Born and bred in Newcastle, the Fran Family is known for their loud personalities. 

As long as the vacay has food – particularly buffets, the Fran Family will have a smile on their face.

Best mates, formally dubbed ‘The Target boys’, have kept viewers laughing since season two. Thankfully, their antics return in 2026. 

They are all first generation Aussies, and proud: Kev has Chinese heritage, Dorian is Greek, and Teng is Vietnamese.

Karly and Bri were the newbies for quite some time on Travel Guides, having joined in 2024. But not anymore! 

The girls crossed paths while filming Beauty and the Geek, and have been inseparable ever since. Travel Guides has certainly opened their horizons,having only traveled to Bali prior to joining the show. 

Where will their next adventure take them? We’re yet to find out.

Complete newbies to TV are Brisbane mums Nicky and Connie.

We’re yet to learn more about the pair!

Grab your passports! Another new pairing, set to experience TV for the first time are best friends Tash and Meryl.

They first brought their infectious energy to Married At First Sight Australia in 2024. While their on-screen relationships ended catastrophically, they found friendship in one another. 

However, the pair only starred in Travel Guides for one episode, jet-setting off to Dublin, Ireland.
