Of all the social media platforms that have defined the age of technology, one in particular has utilized the art of photography. Instagram allows individuals to share snippets of their daily lives in the form of pictures. While some have used the platform for personal use and the promotion of business, others have used it to showcase the wonders of the world.
There are several Instagram accounts solely dedicated to showcasing the account owner's travels. These accounts have been used to promote landmarks, shed light on the world's eclectic culture, and of course, inspire other travelers. So that you won't have to go through the vast sea of "travelgrammers," with the help of Frommers and Expert Vagabond, we've prepared this short list of the best travel accounts you'll find on Instagram.
Owned by 24-year old Australian-born Brooke, worldwanderlust is an account dedicated to the sights in the world's top vacation destinations. Brooke has a keen eye for picturesque views, unique street art, charming little towns and colorful specialty gift finds.
Featuring pictures from one of the most well-known adventure and landscape photographers on the platform, Chris Burkard fills his account with stunning high definition shots of the world's beautiful natural wonders and exciting outdoor sports.
Kristin Addis, a Southern Californian local, quit her job as an investment banker and left her entire corporate life behind. She is now a world traveller that seeks to provide over 77, 000 followers with gorgeous pictures, taken from beautiful spots that may be unknown to a majority of the world's population.
