For my money, this was the best programme on Radio 4. I still miss it.

I enjoy the breadth of stories. Collectively they are all about the different ways of, and motivations for, venturing out and travelling - down the street or to some far-flung destination. I download the podcasts and they keep me sated when I'm not on a travel adventure of my own.Read full review »

I love hearing about places all around the world, truly! From the South Pole to Maine, and beyond! Even Argentina and their guests' quest to learn and perfect the Tango. The guests are amazing, and from all walks of like. If you like geography and history, you will love this podcast. ...Read full review »

A travel programme with a difference - you may never get to see the places discussed with your own eyes but they are brought wonderfully to life each time by the guests and the thoughtful queries of the ptesenters. A perfect length for a dog walk or commute too!

Excess baggage is a great escape - I listen to it on the train on the way to work. Amazing guests talk about their quirky / adventurous/ incredible travels. Love Sandi Tokvsig's interviewing style - and her accent :-)Read full review »

This has to be one of the best ‘places and travel’ podcast to listen too and I really look forward to it each week. The presenters ask the questions and then just let their guest re-tail their stories of their travels and adventure. The presenters of course add their own snippets of information...Read full review »

Updates every Saturday, so there's always something new. This podcast is very interesting with all the travel tails the guests bring in. Because it's BBC, some locations in England and an English perspective sometimes make it a little hard to understand.Read full review »
