Charlie has travelled over 60,000 miles by foot, bicycle, horse, raft, ski and dugout canoe across environments ranging from frozen Arctic sea ice to tangled New Guinean jungles and everything in between. He is a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society and a four-time recipient of the Transglobe Expedition Trust's 'Mad but Marvellous' award.

An entertaining and inspiring speaker, Charlie has given over 600 keynotes, lectures and after dinner speeches across five continents. He uses his experiences in the field of exploration to uplift, inspire and empower audiences to maximise their potential.

Charlie gave our company a really inspiring talk about his travels and the challenges contained within. The stories he has to tell are really awe inspiring and truly captivating. I can't recommend him enough for a dose of fun and serious escapism, only downside is that half of us wanted to get on a plane and go to some far-flung destination immediately after.

I’ve had the privilege of knowing Charlie Walker for several years and have heard him speak at events hosted by Dimensional Fund Advisors and The Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment. Each time, Charlie has captivated the audience with his extraordinary stories and deep insights. His ability to weave adventure, resilience, and human connection into his talks is truly remarkable. Charlie’s authenticity and passion resonate long after the event, leaving audiences inspired and reflective. I can’t recommend him highly enough as a speaker who not only engages but profoundly impacts those who hear him.

We had the pleasure of working with Charlie for our annual dinner in Edinburgh and he was an absolute sensation. Not only a brilliant and captivating speaker, he is also a really fabulous person to work with. I left in awe of his story and so did the 200 members at our dinner. So if you have the opportunity to get Charlie long, he has been one of our best speakers ever.

Charlie Walker is an extraordinary speaker who captivates audiences with his incredible stories of adventure and resilience. His ability to transport listeners to the farthest corners of the world through his vivid storytelling is nothing short of remarkable. Each time Charlie has spoken for my audience, he has left them inspired, motivated, and reflecting deeply on their own journeys—both literal and metaphorical. Charlie doesn’t just share tales of exploration; he delivers profound insights into the human spirit, determination, and the rewards of stepping outside your comfort zone. He’s a true adventurer and an exceptional communicator, and I wholeheartedly recommend him as a speaker who will engage, inspire, and leave a lasting impression.

Charlie is a class act. A gentleman, well spoken, intelligent and a great public speaker and author. He has entertained my clients once and we're having him back in 2025! Charlie is a consumate professional and I have no hesitation in recommending him to others.
