Travel Channels
YouTube is packed with content about Travel. I've attached video here from my favourites organised into three categories.
Vloggers - Some of the best content comes from one person and a camera
Industry Channels - Eye candy from big guns such as Lonely Planet and National Geographic types
Documentaries - There is a bunch of interesting stuff that used to be on TV that people have uploaded
Vloggers
Youtube is a literal goldmine of people who are actively sharing their travels online. Television based travel shows have almost been replaced by vloggers overnight because travel is the perfect topic for anyone armed with a Gopro, but that's not to say that it's easy and some of them are very talented presenters. Some have mastered the craft of candidly recording their travel interactions.
