Ben Fogle is a broadcaster, adventurer, and environmental advocate with more than 20 years of experience on screen and in some of the world’s toughest environments. He first came to fame on the BBC series Castaway and has since rowed the Atlantic with James Cracknell, climbed Mount Everest, raced to the South Pole, and crossed the Empty Quarter desert.
Alongside these adventures, Ben is the author of nine Sunday Times bestselling books and has presented documentaries including World’s Most Dangerous Roads, The Secrets of Scott’s Hut, Swimming with Crocodiles, and the long-running series New Lives in the Wild. His work has taken him from conservation projects with Prince William in Botswana to remote communities around the world, and even a road trip across Peru. Calling himself an “Accidental Adventurer,” Ben shares his experiences with humour and honesty.
A former United Nations Patron of the Wilderness, Ben has dedicated much of his career to raising awareness of environmental challenges such as climate change, deforestation, and plastic pollution. He has fronted major campaigns on water and forest conservation, including "Save Our Streams" and reforestation partnerships with WWF, Tusk, HP Inc. and the Arbor Day Foundation. Through his documentaries, books, and campaigns, Ben makes the urgency of environmental action both relatable and inspiring for global audiences.
Ben’s personal journey embodies resilience, pushing the limits of endurance in some of the world’s toughest environments. These experiences form the heart of his motivational talks, where he explores what it takes to overcome setbacks, thrive under pressure, and adapt when everything is on the line. Audiences leave with practical lessons on resilience and a renewed belief in their own potential.
Ben is also in demand as an awards host, after-dinner speaker, and conference moderator. His warmth, wit, and professionalism make him an ideal choice for motivational events, corporate gatherings, and ceremonies where engagement and inspiration are essential.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
