Rick Steves' guidebooks, public-radio program and numerous television series have made him an essential resource for travelers wishing to explore Europe. This program finds the knowledgeable host offering globetrotters a fresh perspective on lodgings, transportation and places to visit on their journeys. One thing that hasn't changed, however, is Steves' belief that travelers should become "temporary locals," exploring not only major cities and the usual sites, but out-of-the-way locales that often produce the most authentic, and enjoyable, experiences of a trip.

4/5
The series offers an interesting look at some of Europe's top destinations through the eyes of its articulate host. Steves' descriptions often take on a poetic quality as he describes some of each area's works of art, parks, and churches. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
