My Current List of Favorite Travel Blogs

I’m not going to lie: I think I have a pretty good travel blog. (You probably do too if youre here.) I work hard to provide excellent practical travel advice to help you travel better, but I’m not the only great travel blogger out there. In fact — and I know this might be shocking — there’s a lot about travel that I’m not an expert on. Family travel? No idea. Travel as a woman? Clueless. Information on hotels? Only a little. Photography? I can manage to turn my camera on if that counts. Food expert? Only at eating it.

I’ve realized that it’s been a while since I last talked about the best travel blogs out there — the ones I read — so I wanted to take a moment and highlight some of my favorite travel blogs that can also help you travel better, cheaper, and smarter. There are so many helpful blogs out there, I feel like Im long overdue to point you to some of them:

Raimee Travel

Raimee is one of the best new creators out there. She used to run the social media for this site but has since gone on to do her own thing, teaching people how to travel smarter via incredible videos on Instagram and TikTok. Her website features lots of incredible itineraries, guides, and advice for young travelers.

27 Travels

Gabi and Shanna are a best friends based in NYC and provide a lot of information catering to vegans. They, of course, have guides and resources for everyone, but those two subjects are their specialities. They got off the beaten path a lot and share a lot of good insights on travel.

Budget Traveller

One of the OG travel bloggers, Kash produces a lot of content that helps backpackers travel the world better, more sustainably, and get off the beaten path more. Hes probably the only person I know who has stayed in more hostels than I have! Hes an incredible writer and is well informed about travel trends and what people want. And, like his name suggests, its all about budget travel.

Ottsworld

Another OG travel blogger, Sherry Ott provides a lot of incredible information for adventurous women forty and above. While any blog listed here can help travelers of any age, Sherry has a perspective that non-Gen Z and millennials will find really helpful. Shes been to over 72 countries and does a lot of hiking and nature-based activities. She even does travel planning and turns small group tours. Shes the real deal.

Oneika the Traveller

Onieka is one of my favorite blogs as she talks about the real side of travel and is not afraid to get political, talk about racial prejudice when she travels and discusses life as a black female traveler. Shes an Emmy award-winning host that has been to over 100 countries and her tips and tricks are super practical. She also provides a lot of advice on family travel as she now travels with her husband and daughter.

Prince of Travel

If youre looking for amazing airline breakdowns and detailed explanations on how to use your points and miles, Ricky is the guy. He has detailed breakdowns of airline loyalty programs and flight experiences. His in-cabin videos are amazing. And, if youre Canadian, hes especially someone you should follow as he is the best resource for points and miles in Canada. He also has a travel concierge program that can help you use your points.

The Blonde Abroad

Kierstens site focuses on the intersection of family and travel. I think her blog is one of the best for female travelers. Shes been blogging for over a decade and her website features hundreds of pages of helpful tips for solo female travelers looking to do bougie on a budget. Shes regularly featured in media for her advice. She also runs one of the biggest independent tour companies for women travelers out there.
