For some, planning your vacation is almost as fun as the trip. Finding deals, selecting attractions, and securing accommodations, can be fun activities when you’ve worked hard to create the space to take a trip. YouTube has become a great tool for researching destinations and attractions, with thousands of content creators making videos about your dream vacations. With so many to sort through, here are three content creators that you must follow when planning your travels.

Coolist

Are you a fan of traveling south of the border? Looking for the best resorts for parties, activities, dinners, or to stretch your dollar? Then Coolist is the YouTube channel for you. James goes to all the resorts throughout Mexico and beyond to find out all the interesting details about each property.

Their work isn’t focused solely on travel, as they bring some business aspects to the conversation as well, such as recent videos about buying land in other countries.
