Here we’ve compiled a round-up of 10 of the most popular official tourist board videos to be found on YouTube. We won’t claim to have identified them all, but hopefully we’ve picked out most of them. If you know of others, please let us know in the comments and perhaps we can do a follow-up post another time. Remember, these are all official videos so you won’t find items such as the ‘Where the hell is Matt?’ videos which have collectively attracted tens of millions of views in their own right.
10. Visit Scotland (676,548 views)

Thank you, Phil… I knew we wouldn’t have spotted them all! I’ll start collating for a “10 more of the most popular travel videos of all time” blog post!
If anyone knows of any others I’ve missed – with half a million or more views – then please post here.
Thank you!

Thank you, Tommy… we were aware of that one (we posted it here: https://www.aluxurytravelblog.com/2013/03/30/ode-to-joy-from-the-croatian-tourist-board/ ) but it just missed the cut on our top 10, with the Visit Scotland ad having been viewed just a few more thousand times…
