Travel across the world through the below podcasts.

Podcasts have experienced a boom in recent years, especially in the travel niche. From must-visit places around the world and destination experts to travel stories and tips, travel podcasts can give you major wanderlust.

Below are some travel podcasts to listen to while you plan your next vacation.

Indie Travel Podcast

Tune in to Craig and Linda Martin’s Indie Travel Podcast for advice on choosing your travel destination, what to pack in your carry-on luggage, cheapest way to get around your next destination and more. The duo has been on the road since 2016, and their insightful and entertaining stories are proof of their fun-filled adventures. With episodes ranging from 20 to 30 minutes, listen to stories from ex-pats, backpackers, digital nomads and everyone else who have a strong passion for travel.

Zero to Travel

Jason Moore shares his passion for travel in his one-hour long weekly podcasts. With over 15 years of experience, his posts include tips on travel safety, budget travel, finding work when on road, among others. Additionally, he interviews fellow explorers who are currently on-road, including visually impaired cyclists who finished a 16,000-mile journey to Alaska from Argentina.

Women on the Road

A biweekly podcast, Women on the Road explore the lives of solo female travellers who are living by their own rules. The host, Laura Hughes, interviews these fearless women and gives their nomadic lifestyle a unique spin. Our favourite is her interview with Abbi Hearne, an adventure wedding photographer, who shares her challenges and lessons she went through while building her dream business.

Alice in Wanderland

The producer Vic interviews a Scottish adventurer, Alice Morrison, who lives in a village in the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. The fortnightly podcast gives us an insight into her daily life at home. However, the earlier episodes feature some of her interesting expeditions, from her 2000km trek with camels to 1400km camel trek across the Atlas Mountains. Listening to her travel tales will fuel your desire to become a digital nomad.

The Big Travel Podcast

Hosted by Lisa Francesca Nand, The Big Travel Podcast features guests from various backgrounds and day jobs like journalists, politicians, actors, athletes, philanthropists, authors, musicians and more. All of the guests on the podcast narrate their intriguing travel tales irrespective of their daily life.
