August, September & October:

Our social media performed extremely well, reaching over 2.7 million people in August, September and October! The spring campaign, along with many high-performing organic posts, including six viral posts that each reached over 150K people, contributed to this success.

Additionally, our collaboration post with TNZ (@purenewzealand) in Oparara Arches Reel reached over 100,000 people.

Posts highlighting our stunning scenery, unique accommodations and hidden gems generated significant interest.
