About The World Pursuit
The World Pursuit launched on 2011-06-12 and has grown to about 40.7 thousand subscribers and nearly 11.9 million views across 841 videos. The channel posts roughly three videos per month and most recently uploaded on 2026-08-08. Its content mixes destination guides, itineraries and trail-by-trail hike videos, with a recent concentration on Banff, the Canadian Rockies and neighbouring parks. Earlier popular uploads cover islands, Nile cruising and African safari tips, so travel ranges from tropical islands to river cruises and backcountry hikes. Videos are guide-style vlogs with practical tips and on-trail footage.
If you like clear, on-the-trail guidance, this channel delivers steady, boots-on-the-ground coverage. We find the videos feel like a helpful friend walking you through parking, viewpoints and which trails to choose, with enough itinerary planning to build a full trip. Standout watchability comes from the most viewed Siargao episode, "SIARGAO - WHAT BALI USED TO BE," which shows the channel can do island features as well as mountain hikes. Uploads are regular, about three a month, so there is new planning material often enough to keep gear lists and route options current.
They also write a travel blog: The World Pursuit.
