I dont know if anyone has seen this show, but its great! It's called Pilot Guides, and it may only be a Canadian show. In the show they pick a different destination every week and go through all of the attractions, accomodations and overall lifestyle of the country or area. They show demostrates how travelling would be in that area for low budget and middle class travellers.

A few others have talked about this show in other forums, but I had to bring it up again because it's one of my favorite shows. It's on the Outdoor Life Network (OLN). It's on all the time and is really addictive to watch. You can download episodes online at http://www.pilotguides.com/

Is Pilot Guides the same thing as GlobeTrekker? For some reason, I think it is. Just a different title depending on where you watch it?

Yeah, Pilot Guides is the same thing as Globe Trekker (formerly Lonely Planet on Travel Channel). They've been showing it down here on PBS for a few years now, and recently started showing it again on Travel Channel. Last weekend Ian was in Cambodia, which got me really excited for my trip there next year.

I loved that Globe Trekker is back on the air. Ian is my favorite. I also really like "Stranded" with Cash Peters. Maybe I just like the bumbling friendly guys with accents.
