Sometimes we have to see it to believe it. Sometimes we have to know it’s there to go after it. And, sometimes we just need a little inspiration to find something completely unexplored. These videos are made by people who set out to show you can travel the world on a budget because they did. You can cram 10 countries into one month because they did. You can take time off work to go enjoy life because they did. Here are the top 5 travel videos that will inspire you to go see the world.
New Zealander Logan Dodds was living in London doing contracting work when he decided he saved enough money to take the summer off and explore Europe. He brought a GoPro with him and made this video. It went viral and he was invited on multiple radio shows and even had a trip to the United States sponsored so he could make another video.
New York-based photographer Tyler Fairbank took a 12-day safari in Africa and made a hyperlapse of it. He posted the video to his Vimeo account just three months ago and National Geographic picked it up for their YouTube channel. If it doesn’t make you want to jump over the Atlantic, I don’t know what will.
Louis is the modern-day vagabond living a dream many wish they could. He travels the world and makes YouTube videos. His most recent video will inspire you to fully take in the world around you.
Four guys who have combined three years of travel into one three-minute video highlighting their adventures and lessons learned along the way. They’ll make you want to get to their level of high on life.
In one of the most creative travel videos the Internet has ever seen, Alex Chacon gave us a glimpse of 36 countries in 360 degrees in a “three-year epic selfie.” The video has more than 13 million views and growing. Watch and you’ll see why.
