Our Story

From One Walk to a World of Exploration

Making travel as immersive and inspiring as being there.

What began in 2022 with a rainy night walk through London’s Downing Street has grown into a global movement of immersive city explorations. The Walking London now has 30K+ followers, 7+ million views, and over 580+ videos — capturing real streets, real sounds, and real moments in 4K.

In 2024, we expanded with The Walking New York and The Walking Europe, continuing our mission to bring the world’s cities closer, one step at a time. With The Walking India, Tokyo, and Sydney on the horizon — our journey to make travel as real as being there has only just begun.

Get To Know Us

We’re a growing collective of creators, explorers, and storytellers redefining how the world experiences travel. What began as a single YouTube channel has evolved into a multi-city walking network — capturing authentic moments from London to New York and beyond. United by a shared passion for realism and discovery, we’re now building Tralendr, a travel-planning app designed to make exploring the world as seamless as watching it.

Founder

Ajay, an IIT Madras graduate and former Product Manager in London, turned his love for filming into a global vision. What started as a personal passion project, “The Walking London,” has grown into a worldwide walking universe. With a dedicated team now behind him, he continues to expand the brand’s footprint through new city channels and digital products that make travel more immersive, accessible, and inspiring.

The Journey Ahead

The world is vast — and we can’t walk it alone. We’re looking for storytellers, travelers, and filmmakers who see beauty in everyday streets. If that’s you, join us in expanding The Walking Universe. Connect with us on our channels.

For brand collaborations, partnerships, or creative projects, we’re always open to ideas that align with our mission — capturing the world, one step at a time.

Our Strengths & Future Goals

We are a dedicated walking-tour channel, producing 5–6 long-format videos every week and a short video every day. As a passionate team, we consistently deliver high-quality, immersive experiences that let viewers explore the world from their screens. Our focus on consistency, creativity, and viewer engagement sets us apart.

We aim to expand our reach and become the go-to source for virtual travel experiences. Alongside our channel, we are developing Tralendr, an innovative trip-planning app designed to make real-world travel seamless and personalized. Our mission is to inspire exploration and make travel planning effortless for everyone.
