Who is Indian Backpacker?
Indian Backpacker is the channel of Anmol Jaiswal, a Gurugram creator whose thesis fits in a sentence from his own About page: travel “in the lowest budget possible.” A full-time creator for six-plus years, he runs a small empire — the main travel channel plus Anmol Jaiswal, Anmol’s Garage, AJ Gaming and money channels, the Gamesouk.in founder title, a 15-person team and 40+ countries stamped.
Forbes India noticed early: #5 on its 2022 Top 100 Digital Stars (travel). The format that earned it is the numbered road-trip series — one SUV, one route, every cost on camera — with the Mahindra Scorpio-N as the recurring co-star.
His YouTube journey
1. Budget beginnings (2019–2022). The channel was created on 13 January 2019. Early Malaysia, Indonesia and McLeodganj trips set the minimum-expenditure template; Forbes #5 arrived in 2022.
2. Delhi to London (2023). The breakout: Delhi to London by road in a Scorpio-N — 23,000+ km in 110 days through Iran, Turkey, Greece, Austria and 20+ countries — episode by episode.
3. Australia, then America (2024–2026). Delhi-to-Australia by road in 2024; from 2026 an India-to-America world road trip (“Travelling to 100 Countries By Road”), whose EP-1 drew 2.7M views in two weeks. September 2026: ~3.5–3.6M subscribers, up to ~835M views.
What kind of travel content does Indian Backpacker make?
Based on actually published videos, not slogans:
- Numbered overland series. Delhi–London, Delhi–Australia, India–America — EP-1 openers are the landmarks.
- Logistics on camera. Visas, flights, SIMs, fuel costs, expressways, border crossings (India–Nepal in a Scorpio-N).
- First-passport lens. Destinations framed for first-time Indian passport holders: Pakistan (Kartarpur), Bhutan, Timor-Leste.
- Road-trip playlists. Japan 2.0, New Zealand motorhome, Bhutan by road, USA 2026.
- Hindi voice, English packaging. Narration in Hindi; titles, thumbnails and descriptions in English.
What he does not publish: no silent walks, no luxury content, no compilations. His value is the receipt — every kilometer costed for viewers who want to repeat it cheaper.

Indian Backpacker travel style
Observable facts vs editorial reading:
- Narration: Hindi voiceover, practical and cost-obsessed.
- Rhythm and editing: Numbered episodes; logistics montages with prices.
- Camera: Self-shot road crew; border posts and fuel stations as sets.
- Interactions: Officials, hosts, garage crews — the trip’s supporting cast.
- Culture: Secondary to route; the road is the subject.
- Food: Roadside and budgeted, not the focus.
- Transport and stay: Scorpio-N always; hostels, motorhomes, budget stays.
- Storytelling: One route, one vehicle, every rupee counted.
Difference from Global Silent Walks: Anmol narrates every cost in Hindi; a Silent Walk lets you experience famous roads without commentary, in real time and natural sound.
Who is the Indian Backpacker channel for?
- Overland dreamers: Delhi–London–Australia–America costed kilometer by kilometer.
- First-time Indian passport holders: Visa-first framing for Kartarpur, Bhutan, Nepal and beyond.
- Hindi-speaking road fans: The logistics genre in its most practical form.
- Not recommended as a planning tool alone: Borders and visas shift fast; verify officially. Ignore fan-wiki net-worth and car-collection filler.
- Sensitive viewers: Long driving episodes; course-value complaints exist single-sourced — treat as unverified.
No score or ranking — just fit.
Destinations inspired by Indian Backpacker on Global Silent Walks
After watching Anmol cost every kilometer to London and New York, you can walk both ends calmly on foot, no commentary, 4K natural sound:

Indian Backpacker does not recommend, sponsor or use Global Silent Walks unless officially stated. These are independent editorial bridges.
Explore the destination differently
Anmol’s videos answer “how cheaply can an Indian passport drive the world?” with receipts in Hindi.
