We Seek Travel
Firsthand adventure travel guides and itineraries from a full-time traveling team.
About We Seek Travel
We Seek Travel is an adventure travel blog led by Australian traveler Olly Gaspar. Olly started the site to share first-hand experiences and photography from years of full-time travel with his partner Haylea, and it has since grown into a larger site with contributions from a team of like-minded travelers. The site publishes long, experience-driven guides and practical itineraries across many countries, and it now hosts more than 800 travel guides in its sitemap. Guides cover trekking, remote beaches, tours, accommodation recommendations and gear, and posts are packed with the author’s own photography and photo credits.
If you want boots-on-the-ground adventure writing that reads like travel planning from a friend who actually went, this is the site to bookmark. The voice is pragmatic and experienced, mixing first-person anecdotes with step-by-step itineraries and honest gear or insurance reviews, as you can see in the exhaustive Koh Tao vs Koh Samui deep dive. Articles are long and thorough, often illustrated with the author’s own photos, and the site produces a couple of new guides a month. We find it best for readers planning active trips - treks, island-hopping, national-park itineraries and trip logistics.
