Travel Docos
Along with the Lonely Planets and Pilot Guides there are a few more personal journeys in this collection too. Billy Crystal visits Moscow, Ruby Wax hangs out in Miami, Billy Connolly shows us Scotland and Michael Palin goes all over the place.
Put on your loudest Hawaiian shirt and kick off your Birkenstocks, this is travelling the cheap way. Bon Voyage.
