Fuel Your Wanderlust With These Travel Influencers

Travel influencers are everywhere – quite literally – but what is a travel influencer? 

In the most basic sense, they are influencers who create content focused on their travels and the places they visit. Showing off amazing locations around the world is these people’s bread and butter. And thanks to the wonders of social media we can feel like we’re there too through their content!

But how can a brand benefit from this? 

Luckily it can be done in a variety of ways. For example, if your brand is having an event in another country you could invite and pay for the influencer to fly out and cover it. You can also use the influencers and their audience to give away a trip drawing in followers and engagement.     

If this sounds good you can find our list of the top 20 best travel influencers below!
