Having recently celebrated its fourth birthday, Instagram has grown in leaps and bounds and is without doubt here to stay. It may not be for everyone but I love it and you can find my Instagrams here at Travel With Kat. You’ll also find our hosts’ here at BoutiqueTravelBlog.
But to help you wade through the mediocrity of many of the instagrammers out there, here are just a few of my favourites – a collection of food lovers, travellers and photographers with images that will inspire you, make you dream and make you hungry!
My selection of great instagrammers to follow in 2015
1. Croyable

 4. The Travel Hack

Wow! Thanks so much for including us on your list! We follow several of these and will definitely check out the others! Cheers
My pleasure! Love following your adventures.
Thanks so much for including me with such a great list of Instagrammers. Truly honoured!
There are a couple of new ones for me to follow here too 🙂
Thanks Monica and great to hear its introduced you to a few new people to follow.
Thanks. Some ones I was not following! If you ever expand and do the top twenty hoping mine will be there too 😉
You never know I might do a part two! Hope you enjoy following some new faces.
Great list, thank you! I’m still quite new to Instagram (so behind the times!) so will definitely be following these 🙂
I hope they provide some useful inspiration and that you enjoy using Instagram as much as I do.
Great list Kathryn, as if I need some more inspiration to take me away from work! What a talented group you’ve put together, all so unique in their point of view.
Thanks Alison, when you see them displayed like this you can really appreciate the different styles each one has developed.
I follow some already but I will look these others up. Have come round to Instagram recently – it is great for sharing photos to an interested audience and for researching places and trip ideas! Shame the pictures can’t be seen on Twitter though, that would be good!
I agree with you there Anna, it is a shame that Instagram photos only show up as a link in your Twitter feed rather than the actual photo showing.
What a fantastic list Kathryn! Lots of sumptuous photos. There’s oodles of inspiration in here. Great idea to do this list, Thanks Kathryn.
Hope it has lead you to some interesting people you’ll enjoy following.
Great list! They all share amazing photos on Instagram!
They’re a great inspiration, aren’t they. And thanks for popping by.
Just starting to really get into instagram myself. Great to have some recommendations to help me through (though, of course, I already knew the Planet D 😉 )
Dear Kathryn, Instagram is pratically starting here in Brazil. So normally I check other blogs to see all news concerning this subject. Unfortunatly we are not so advanced in this social media and that’s why I found out your blog! Thanks a lot for sharing this list of Instagrammers and I loved it! Beaultiful places… Thanks again and I wish you a lot of success!
