Travelers watch online HD

I'm surprised this show has been forgotten. It was a great travel show, my favorite, and I watch quite a few.

The cast seemed more like participants than hosts. They were usually smiling and you could tell they were having the time of their lives. They had a camaraderie and appeal that was infectious.

It had the energy of being a reality game show, but with nothing at stake, so it was friendlier.

This is a much more upbeat, energetic show than any I see today, like Globe Trekker.

I would love to see this show again.

I have so many memories from this show. I remember them driving dune buggies across Egypt, walking the streets of Venice. There was that episode where Foster participated in an ancient Japanese ritual where many people dragged a giant juggernaut through the street; pole vaulting over ditches in Holland--Robin makes it because of her gymnastic training, Foster and Patrick don't; chocolate shop, in Belgium?--so fresh it goes bad in two weeks; That fun contest (in Sweden?) where contestants made their own 'boats', dressed up in costumes; luaus; Barbara Alverez co-piloting a jet, engaging in mock combat with a police officer; a Scarlett O'Hara impersonator jokes with Patrick Michael, asking if he would like to see her underwear, he excitedly says yes, only to find that it's long underwear--she did the same thing to a former prime minister of Japan and it caused a scandal; Patrick Michael learning to wrestle in Korea, and Pearce Bunting eating a live squid in Korea; three of the Travelers pose while standing inside the pants of _one_ Sumo wrestler; visiting a fair in Wisconsin, fried cheese, crowning the Butter Queen, face sculpting with butter; learning about a mythological sea monster depicted in a Korean statue; Egypt?: A Scottish device was used to spray icy cold water at somebody in order to rejuvenate them; Pearce Bunting joking with someone impersonating Benjamin Franklin's wife--what was he like in bed?; New York: meeting Ed Koch, great parking tip (at the Navy Yard); Memphis: A prospective country singer records a song, the Travelers record a song; Atlanta, GA?: Foster's home town? Cool diner, cruising in '60 chevys; an Indian guru tells Barbara that she could be a great mathematician if she developed her skills; Mexico: day of the dead, waking up at 4 AM when it's still dark, thousands of people walking through the streets with candles, pouring beer on rocks, then smashing the rocks; Atlanta: every street is named Peach St; Jamaica: 'I must improve my bust!'; Venice: buying cookies from nuns; Japan: green tea ice cream. Visiting a haunted hotel in Owensboro, KY, recipe for Turkey stuffing: twelve ingredients including kale, but doesn't taste like kale; Gloucester, MA: the greasy pole contest; the silent, elegant, and powerful blue skies of Seville, Spain. Also, I believe in one episode someone from Central America gave Barbara Alvarez some makeup that was made from a bug. This person forgot to tell her that the makeup lasts for several weeks.

For a period of time, it was shown on the free-to-air television here in my country. Though back then it was by chance I watched this, I had always like the episodes it feature.

Then strangely enough, it is not on air after some episodes. Till I chanced upon it again on the travel channel (it's call Discovery Travel & Living) here on cable some time back then. Though this time round sometimes the on-air timings are not often in my favour, I always try to watch it wherever I can. Then strangely again, I don't often found it on the listings like weeks later or something like that.

It's actually kind of a pity this is not often being shown like on a regular basis like Globe Trekker which is on our local free-to-air and even on the same travel channel I mentioned earlier on. I had always loved the catchy opening tune and found myself at times humming to it whenever the show is on. I like just about everyone who is hosting it.

It's always interesting and fun to see what the hosts are doing in whatever destination is being featured. As it is often being said that connecting with the local people is one of those ways to enhance the travelling experience, this is one of those things the hosts always did. They are always together as a team and fun to watch.

I really hope this series can be brought back. Whether it may be on the free-to-air, or maybe on cable. Before I watch Globe Trekker, this was the travelling show where I first started to like. Given travelling is one of those things I have always want to achieve. Definitely great and awesome show.

I was in a different country when this show aired. It was a really cool show and introduced me to so many different cultures, customs, ideas and the varied ways of other people's lives. Every episode took place at a different town, city or just featured a cultural fest, like tomatina.

The host were a bunch of friendly cool people who gave a refreshing perspective without any pretensions. I was in my teens and got me terribly interested in travel writing. I started reading more travel writers, but due to the vagaries of writing I ended up in advertising!!! I still have a secret impractical desire to revive this show and get it on air. I am sure I am not the only one who feels this way.

In any case, does anyone know if there's a DVD or VHS available for this show?

My husband and I used to watch the show when it was on back in the mid-90's! After it ended I was really bummed. I've looked for years for it on the Net, but no luck so far. I do agree with the other about it being entertaining and informative. We actually took a trip to the Grandfather Mountain Highland games 1997, the year after Travelers had been there. I loved seeing wherever they went, and the cast were great together! I always wondered if Patrick and Barbara were going to be a couple! Pearce was always the one doing something crazy. Foster seemed to be the intellectual one. Michele and the gal who she replaced were cool, too. I liked it when we learned about their hometowns and places around the world. I enjoyed London and I think that they went to Scotland.

Help. Does anyone know how to get a copy of this episode. I'm a Spanish teacher and can't find it on the Discovery website. This episode is perfect, in that it covers all the journalistic questions of who, what, where, when, why, how, and how much. The visuals are phenomenal, as are the sounds. Plus, this was shot long before La Tomatina became a hot tourist attraction. It's more pure than the commercialism with which it's associated now. My students particularly enjoyed the other aspects of the holiday, not just the tomato-throwing. The cart-racing held many students' interests, for the pure fact that these vehicles have no brakes. Many of my students reenacted this video, even climbing a tower to simulate the greased pole. I do hope I can get a hold of this video again.

Gracias for the help, Linda
