Walk is every day use of the word. Saunter would be more of fancy writing (books etc) emphasizing slow, relaxed walking.
Wander sort of implies no particular place to go, or going to may random places with no particular point. Can also be used in the phrase "your mind wanders"

Saunter means walking around in a relaxed and slow way. It does not say anything more. Wander is walking around with no aim.
