Topdeck Travel uses customers’ photos in new campaign
Topdeck Travel has recruited everyday travellers to create content for its new campaign ‘Topdeck Took Me’.
Each image used as part of the campaign has been taken by a Topdeck traveller and spread across buses, railway stations, Facebook and topdeck.travel.com.
Created by Redsuit Advertising the campaign aims to increase brand awareness and grow its market share and popularity amongst young travellers.
The campaign also includes a competition across Facebook where people are asked to use the hashtag #Topdecktravelers and post a video of their Topdeck holiday to win a free trip.
Ben Ittensohn, regional manager APAC at Topdeck Travel, said in a statement: “The beauty of this idea is the genuine travel aspect. Our customers get to experience the most amazing locations in a unique way and this campaign is a great way to showcase that.
“It’s basically word of mouth on a national scale, and it’s proven so effective that our marketing team in the UK has adapted the concept for use across our global markets,” Ittensohn said.
John Anderson, founding partner and creative director at Redsuit, said: “By using actual images of people’s amazing Topdeck trips, they tapped into a very authentic sense of fun and adventure, which is what Topdeck is all about.”

TopDeck is the WORST TOUR OPERATOR EVER! DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM!. They try to take advantage of their customers with their terms and conditions, which are ILLEGAL. I, unfortunately, had to cancel my tour with them at the last minute because of a medical issue and they will not even give me a credit to tour with them in the future, let alone a refund. When I spoke to a representative over the phone, she told me that instead of recovering, I should have contacted TopDeck to negotiate a resolution. When I explained that I was focused on getting better, she said “so what do you expect us to do”? I hung up the phone and called my credit card company to dispute the charge. What a bunch of nasty human beings!
