Best known as a regular host on the Travel Oz series on the Seven Network, Irene Jones is fast becoming a loved and trusted personality in the Australian travel and television scene. Her down-to-earth style and genuine love of culture, people, and food have made her a favourite with audiences both on-screen and online. Whether she’s bringing global destinations to life or sharing local experiences, Irene’s warmth and natural storytelling make every adventure feel personal.

Irene’s career has spanned across television, theatre, and film, where she’s performed in iconic Australian TV shows such as Neighbours, Blue Heelers, State Coroner, and Embassy, as well as feature films like The Heartbreak Kid and the Better Man biopic (2024). She’s also reported internationally, including coverage of the Lunar Spring Festival for Hong Kong television.

As a television presenter, Irene has filmed in some of the world’s most exciting locations — from the stunning landscapes of the Yarra Valley to the vibrant culture of the Bahamas, the historic streets of London, and even backstage at Broadway’s Aladdin. She’s had the privilege of interviewing global icons like Sir Richard Branson for the launch of Virgin Voyages, Adi Roy- Aladdin on Broadway, and Olympian Michael Klim in Bali. Her engaging interviews and authentic approach to storytelling have solidified her place as a trusted voice in travel and lifestyle media.

In 2025, Irene continues her work with Travel Oz, exploring new destinations including Hawaii, Dubai, Kuwait, and the Greek Islands. Known for her hands-on approach, Irene has become a sought-after host for her genuine curiosity and infectious energy. Her style is not about showcasing just the ‘must-see’ spots but focusing on the people and stories that make each place special.

Outside her TV work, Irene is the founder and CEO of Travelglobe, a travel company she created after the heartbreaking loss of her daughter at age 24. Travelglobe has since grown into a national network of over 40 independent travel agents, offering personalised tours and experiences that reflect Irene’s commitment to building meaningful connections and fostering a love for travel. 

Irene’s passion for travel is matched only by her dedication to important causes. She’s a strong advocate for mental health awareness, anxiety support, and cancer research. Through both her platform and personal story, Irene promotes resilience, joy, and the power of human connection.  

Irene’s ability to bring authenticity, energy, and warmth to everything she does makes her a standout in both television and the travel industry. Whether she’s presenting on screen, leading a tour, or creating meaningful connections behind the scenes at Travelglobe, Irene’s focus is always on sharing real stories and experiences that inspire others to explore the world.
