Walking can ONLY be with feet. So, it is redundant.

A better version would be any one of the following:

  1. In fact, in a YouTube uploaded on July 1, these American vloggers challenged themselves by walking from Woodlands to Marina Bay Sands.

  2. In fact, in a YouTube uploaded on July 1, these American vloggers challenged themselves by going from Woodlands to Marina Bay Sands on foot.

  3. In fact, in a YouTube uploaded on July 1, these American vloggers challenged themselves by travelling from Woodlands to Marina Bay Sands on foot.
