32 live collabsTour operators, hotels and brands across Australia — every brand running a creator program right now.
Australia is a goldmine if you’re looking to offset your travel costs with high-quality partnerships. We’ve got 28 brands currently active across 25 cities, ranging from major hospitality chains like Accor, Hilton, and IHG to hands-on tour operators. Whether you’re filming a luxury hotel stay in Melbourne or documenting a reef cruise, there’s a steady stream of trade-for-content deals waiting for the right pitch.
Most of these brands are looking for genuine storytelling rather than just a quick post. For instance, operators like Go West Tours and Local Sauce Tours value creators who can actually show off the experience—think Great Ocean Road road trips or secret bar crawls. If you’re planning a trip down under, hit these brands up early, as they’re specifically looking to fill gaps in their calendars with content creators who can show real ROI.
It depends on the brand. Global hospitality chains often offer stay-for-content trades, while smaller tour operators may offer complimentary experiences for social coverage. Always check the specific 'Deal Terms' tab on the opportunity page before pitching.
Not necessarily. Many Australian brands prefer micro-influencers with high engagement rates and niche audiences over huge accounts with low interaction. Quality of your portfolio matters more than your follower count here.
For hotel stays or major tours, aim to pitch at least 4-6 weeks before your trip. The brands on CollabsMap are actively monitoring their calendars, so hitting them when they have availability is key to getting a 'yes'.
Absolutely. Cities like Melbourne are hubs for both accommodation and local experiences. You could easily pair a stay at the Dorsett Melbourne with a street art tour from Local Sauce to create a full content package.
Be specific about what you’ll deliver. Instead of saying 'I want to work together,' explain how your audience aligns with their product—like telling Go West Tours exactly which tour you want to shoot and how you plan to showcase the 'Penguin Parade' to your followers.
