Travel Backpack Roundup: Bags from Eagle Creek, Osprey, and Tortuga
In this video, we put three popular travel backpacks to the test: the Eagle Creek Tour Travel Pack 40L, Osprey Farpoint 55L, and Tortuga Expandable Backpack. If you’re tired of dragging around a roller bag and want something more versatile for planes, trains, and cobblestone streets, this roundup is for you.
We break down what each pack does best, whether it’s the Eagle Creek’s smart organization and carry options, the Osprey’s modular design with a bonus daypack, or the Tortuga’s sleek, expandable build that keeps you within carry-on limits. We also highlight who each bag is best suited for, so you can find the one that matches your travel style.
