Le programme propose un tour du monde des endroits les plus insolites et les plus exotiques. Dans chaque épisode, un jeune présentateur, appelé « voyageur » dans l'émission, part à la découverte d'un pays, une ville ou une région comme le ferait un « routard » avec son sac à dos. Il découvre ainsi les images, les sons et la culture que le lieu a à offrir et passe du temps avec les habitants. L'émission va souvent bien au-delà des destinations touristiques populaires afin de donner aux téléspectateurs un regard plus authentique sur la culture locale. Les présentateurs participent généralement à différents aspects de la vie régionale, comme assister à un mariage traditionnel ou visiter une communauté minière. Ils s'adressent directement au spectateur, agissant en tant que touristes devenus guides touristiques, mais sont également filmés en train d'interagir avec les habitants et de découvrir des lieux intéressants dans des séquences inédites.
