Not only did Tourism Australia do a fantastic job at showcasing our beautiful backyard and envious lifestyle to over 600 key buyers from more than 30 different countries, the event gave Greyhound the opportunity to promote our products through a combination of scheduled business appointments and networking events.

Congratulations to Nicholas McDonald on 20 years with Greyhound!

Here at Greyhound we love celebrating our employees! As a company policy we give all our employees the opportunity to name a coach on their 20th work anniversary. This month our General Manager of Operations, Nicholas McDonald reached this milestone. Nic took this opportunity to place his personal stamp on one of our newest Irizar i6 coaches. What was his choice you ask? Nic named his coach ’The Dogfather’ (which is aptly his nickname around Greyhound HQ). Thank you Nic for helping Greyhound become the best coach operator in Australia!
