"Hi, I'm Rick Steves'" ~ Traveling the World From The Comfort Of Home
Has there ever been another travel guide more amiable, more informative, more eclectic and just plain likeable than Rick Steves? This somewhat nerdish but pleasant looking fellow will immediately win the viewer over with his charm, humor and smoothing, layback manner. However what will keep you watching program after program is his consummate knowledge of the sites and people he visits.
While each journey is only 30 minutes in length Rick has a unique talent of synthesizing the many facets that make up a people and place. He leaves no stone unturned in his analysis; historical background, spiritual heritage, cultural underpinnings and political legacy are all equally touched upon to give the audience a fuller understanding of the rural and urban landscape.
However not not an individual to dwell too much on the past, he provides a delightful tour of the markets, music, restaurants and nightlife. The kind of information would really want to know if you're out for...
Rick Steves is great!
I thoroughly enjoyed the dvd, Rick Steves is very knowledgeable, this was not only entertaining, but very educational.
Austria and the Alps - makes us want to go back.
Nicely done. Brought back memories of when we were in Europe in 2010. It is absolutely beautiful there and if possible would like to live there.
