Beyond the Map breaks down how far places really are — not just on a map, but in real life.

Ever wondered how many miles separate two cities?
How long it would take to walk, drive, or fly there?
Or why some places feel closer than they actually are?

We turn distance into something you can see and understand.

Short, visual explainers covering:
• Real-world distances
• Travel time by foot, car, and plane
• Surprising comparisons you wouldn’t expect
• “Did you know?” travel and geography facts

Maps show where places are.
We show what it actually takes to get there.

New videos weekly.
