Travel Guides is officially returning in 2024 - and you might recognise new duo Karly and Bri

Nine has announced that Travel Guides is officially returning in 2024, giving viewers the perfect way to see the world from the comfort of their living rooms.

The seventh season is coming hot on the heels of its second consecutive Logie win, and two new Guides will joining the fan-favourites – and you might recognise them.

Stream complete seasons of Travel Guides for free on 9Now.

Karly and Bri are two besties who met while filming Beauty and the Geek a couple of years ago, and have been inseparable ever since.

Like many Aussies, Karly and Bri have never travelled further afield than Bali.

Speaking to 9Entertainment about their arrival Karly said: "Getting the phone call to be Travel Guides was a surreal moment for us as we're such big fans of the show.

We haven't done much travelling around the world - we've pretty much only been to Bali - so to be able to see the world in all its glory is a once in a lifetime opportunity. And to do it with my best friend is amazing - we're so grateful."

Bri said there's no doubt the duo will bring "some sugar and spice and a barrel of laughs".

"I'd describe us as chaotic travellers. And when we open our mouths we're never really sure what's going to come out. But we can promise young, feminine wild-woman energy," she added.

Karly appeared on Beauty and the Geek in 2022, and won the show alongside Aaron. 

Bri appeared in the same season alongside her geek, Chris .

They will be bringing high energy, total glam and wide-eyed wonder as they explore every corner of the world with the rest of the gang.

Featuring both extraordinary overseas adventures and domestic delights, the seventh season of Travel Guides will also see most our favourite travel critics return, including Newcastle's budget-hunting Fren family, happy-go-lucky couple Matt and Brett, retired jetsetters Kevin and Janetta, and best mates Kev, Dorian and Teng.

The announcement comes after fan-favourites Stack and Mel announced their departure from the show earlier this year.

"The time unfortunately has come for us to put away our passports, hang our hats up, stay home make some money, pay our mortgage, build some sheds, do some fencing... But most importantly be around for our kiddos," they said.

EXCLUSIVE: The first look inside Victoria from Travel Guides wedding

Stack and Mel said while Travel Guides has changed their lives for the better, they are in different stages of their lives now especially as "busy mums to [their] wonderful kids Royce, Wyatt and Savannah".

"Since we've started on the program back in 2016, we were young whipper snappers – 26-years-old, no care in the world and living each day as it comes!" they said.

"Since then we've both learned heaps. Been around the world five times made over 50 eps of Travel Guides and now have a Logie under our belt – who woulda thought?"

The sisters promised that while their televised travels might be over, "this is not the end for [them]".

"We are very competitive rodeo athletes so we might just turn up in a rodeo in your town," they teased.
