If you love travel shows that do more than skim the surface, Journy TV (powered by NextTrip) is a soft launch that deserves a spot on your watchlist. Built as a free streaming channel focused on global storytelling, Journy blends licensed favorites with original programming to deliver immersive, culturally rich content that is perfect for armchair travelers and weekend explorers alike.
Why Journy TV Stands Out
Available on top streaming platforms, including Plex, and Samsung Smart TV, Journy TV makes discovery effortless. With more than 17 million viewers across FAST, AVOD, and even cruise-ship networks, streaming fresh, curated travel content is easier than ever to find, and there’s no subscription required.
The channel leans into authentic experiences with shows that celebrate local food, hiking culture, and the offbeat charm of cities, all with personalities and production values that keep you watching. Say bye to glossy postcards and enjoy a lineup of 24/7 content,
Jump into the Lineup & Discover Your Next Destination
Journy’s curated slate gives a clear taste of the channel’s vibe:
- Epic Trails follows hikers into wild places, spotlighting the grit, moments of awe, and human stories that unfold on long-distance routes. It’s the kind of series that makes you want to lace up your boots or at least plan a future trek.
- Travel Man — hosted by comedian Joe Lycett with a rotating pool of celebrity guests, condenses the essence of a city into a high-energy 48-hour itinerary. It’s practical and funny: landmarks, local culture, and authentic food stops delivered with wit.
- Paradise Kitchen Bali with Lauren Camilleri is a sensory trip through Bali’s culinary world, pairing recipes and food traditions with conversations about culture and place.
Beyond shows that reflect Journy’s core promise of travel content with personality, depth, and a sense of discovery, the channel can be your passport to instant adventure.
Watch & Book Your Next Trip
As part of the NextTrip ecosystem, Journy TV transforms passive viewing into active planning. While watching shows, the network’s content-to-commerce model allows viewers to watch, scan, book, and go, thanks to smart integrations like QR codes, clickable destinations, and seamless booking tools. By bridging the gap between watching and doing, Journy TV is turning travel inspiration into real-world itineraries. While watching the free ad-supported network, your next trip could begin before the credits roll.
What’s Next for Journy TV
This soft launch is just the beginning. In September, Journy TV will unveil a refreshed brand identity, an expanded content slate, and exclusive originals featuring top-tier talent. For viewers who want new travel-focused series, documentaries, and culturally driven storytelling, that expansion promises a steady stream of reasons to return. These shows will join award-winning standouts like Gordon Ramsay’s Great Escape, Travel Man, and Epic Trails.
If you’re into travel documentaries, food shows, or simply great storytelling rooted in place, give Journy TV a spin via Samsung Smart TV and Plex. It’s free, easy to access, and built to feed curiosity and make traveling easier, one episode at a time.
