The path that you see when you run "sudo visudo" is the path that's
set when you run "sudo <command>". It's the "secure_path" in
"/etc/sudoers".

On Ubuntu (and Debian), the system-wide PATH is set via
"/etc/environment" but to change your personal PATH, edit
"~you/.profile".

If you haven't changed it, the default is:

if [ -d "$HOME/bin" ] ; then
    PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
fi

You can replace 'PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"' with the PATH that you want.
