"I am trying to visit every single country on the planet...
...and today you have made it to my website"

Luca Pferdmenges

Luca Pferdmenges is TikTok’s most followed travel content creator, amassing over 2.7 million followers just on the app. He is internationally known for his mission (and catch phrase) to visit every single country in the world. Luca has so far set foot in 184 countries, only 11 remain. At just 22 years old, he is also attempting to become the youngest man to do this.

What most people don’t know: “The German Travel Guy” hasn’t always been travelling – he is also a world record holding juggler and performer!
Born and raised in Mönchengladbach, Germany, Luca discovered the art of juggling at just 10 years old. Fast forward to 2016 and he appears in the TV talent casting show “Superkids”, reaching the final episode and conquering the hearts of millions of people. Luca has since broken numerous Guinness World Records in sport juggling and won countless gold medals in competitions. Through performing juggling shows worldwide, he soon discovered his love for travelling. After representing Austria at the 19th International Circus Festival of China in 2019, he asked the organisers to book his return flight not to Austria – but to Uzbekistan! A new era began, Luca travelled wherever and whenever he could. Then, during the Covid-19 pandemic, all juggling shows got cancelled in an instant. All juggling-related work was gone. So naturally, he decided to work on something new; changing all his social media accounts to @TheGermanTravelGuy and focus on creating travel videos.

Luca has been travelling full-time since 2021. He has since been listed on the prestigious Forbes 30 Under 30 List (2022), travelled on an iron-ore cargo train into the Sahara desert in Mauritania, and showered in cow pee in South Sudan. Luca has also authored two German-language books: "Billig Reisen" & "Jonglieren wie ein Profi".

Only 10 countries left – new opportunities await

With Luca’s mission of trying to visit every country in the world slowly coming to an end, new doors of opportunities open up. We now have the option to create long-term partnerships, with the possibility of Luca living in a certain city or country. Due to his non-stop travelling mission, that was not possible until now. Let’s say you are a tourism board looking for influencers to promote your city/country/project.

Imagine instead of partnering for one video, you could partner for 15 videos – every single month. Luca’s team has the vision to revolutionize the relationship between brand and travel influencer. Luca could have is home base in your city of choice! Through this type of sustainable collaboration, your project is guaranteed to be seen by millions of people monthly, even if not every individual video goes viral. With time, the audience will associate Luca with your brand (or even country/city), ensuring even more exposure and a prominent spot in the minds of all travel fanatics.

Previous collaborations

From hotel chains to travel insurances, Luca has an impressive array of past collaboration partners. As Europe’s most followed travel content creator (with a signficant US based following), he is a benchmark to work with for any company in the travel industry. Whether you are a VPN provider (Luca always uses VPN’s while travelling) looking for a one-time promotion, or a tourism board aiming for a long-term recurring exposure, possibilities are endless. Luca recently completed a 6-month contract with travel insurance company “Safetywing”, as well as short-term partnerships with Radisson Blu, Nord VPN and Sony.
