PR agency Mango recreated the outback in Sydney with commuters being offered bus rides to work which took them past a series of NT tableaux.
Six free buses ran between Bondi Junction and Wynyard with passengers being given a running commentary on the joys of Northern Territory tourism.
The scenes they were driven past included croc-wrestlers, a fisherman in a tinnie battling with barramundi, a mini-cattle station and kayakers looking for the Katherine River. Commuters then arrived at an ‘outback bar’ at Wynyard Park where they were treated to free damper and billy tea.
Meanwhile, Tourism NT has partnered with Network Ten on its documentary series, Keeping Up With The Joneses. Last night the second episode rated 899,000.
