How to Stream Travel Channel Live Without Cable

As the name suggests, Travel Channel is all about exploration. Its many programs are geared towards tours that take you everywhere from high-end hotels to nitty-gritty safaris, and they tackle everything from diverse cultures to cuisines.

You can watch Travel Channel on Sling TV’s Orange Plan, Philo, Sling TV’s Blue Plan, Hulu with Live TV, YouTube TV, Spectrum TV Stream, or Spectrum TV Choice (only for Spectrum Internet customers).

The cheapest option to watch Travel Channel is Philo for $28/month.

Is budget keeping you from Travel? Philo is the cheapest way to watch Travel Channel, along with 90+ entertainment channels you might enjoy. Admittedly, sports fans and local news watchers won't get a lot out of the streamer. However, through Philo, you can enjoy watching beautiful destinations while saving nearly half the cost of other streamers.

As mentioned, Travel Channel is available on Sling TV, whether you choose Orange or Blue. If you do choose Blue, you can also enjoy other entertainment and local news channels that Orange doesn't have. Can't decide between the two? Sling also offers the combo of Orange + Blue as well.

While best known for its video search, YouTube has made a name for itself in live TV streaming. YouTube TV lets you stream 140+ channels in a familiar interface, including the Travel Channel. You can also add premium channels like HBO Max and AMC+ for more entertainment. If you're actually traveling, the streamer still allows you to watch your regular channels as long as you stream at least once every 3 months in your home area.
$40/month | Travel Channel + 90 channels

This newcomer to cord-cutting quietly launched in April 2024. It's about 90 channels for $39.99, without any additional fees like a local channels surcharge, because there are simply no local channels. What you won't find either are sports channels. And some of the channels are Spectrum channels like Spectrum Originals and Spectrum News.

With Philo having a similar channel lineup but costing $15 less, you probably need a very good reason to go for Spectrum TV Stream. But, it's always nice to have another option.

$80/month | Travel Channel + 74 channels | 7 days free trial
Spectrum TV Choice is an internet television service that is available only by call-in and only to Charter Spectrum internet customers.
