Kevin McCloud's Grand Tour of Europe
This landmark series features Kevin McCloud ('Grand Designs') tracing the footsteps of the most notorious aristocrats, artists and architects of the 'Grand Tour'. Travelling to Paris, Venice, Florence, Rome, Naples and Athens; Kevin follows the typical journeys of Grand Tourists. Clambering amongst the greatest buildings, ruins and cities in Europe, he explores the Tour's lasting legacy and uncovers its dark underbelly in the shady alleys and drinking dens en route. Climbing up buildings in harnesses and catapults, snaking through mountain passes and volcanoes on horseback, Kevin will travel as they travelled and revel in the sights, sounds, tastes and smells that changed the way Britain lived.
