I saw this as Podcast of the Week in The Times, and this new season has been brilliant. Holly’s guests are fantastic and I’m always referring to her show notes to plan places to visit and book. Holly also just sounds like a really nice person. Thank you for inspiring so much wanderlust in me, Holly.

I continue to enjoy this podcast, which tends to have interesting guests, though occasionally the interviewer, Holly, can come across as a little disengaged, as if she’s thinking about the next question rather than concentrating on what her guest is saying, but the main reason I haven’t given the...Read full review »

A fairy stale format of “chapters” each guest must answer which doesn’t change- and the conversation doesn’t flow in many maybe most interviews- rather it’s forced and stuffed into the “chapters” format. I would much prefer to hear a conversation or dare I say journalism- where leads and threads...Read full review »

This is my way of treating myself as it transports me back to places I have been and also want to go in the future! I make a note of locations, hidden gems and even restaurants mentioned by the guests. Best podcast ever, I’m totally addicted and am already plotting my holidays for next year with...Read full review »

Holly’s podcast is so well produced and has really some of the most well-travelled people out there who have fascinating perspectives. A really good chance to dream while commuting! Ignore the comments from jealous fools who seem to want this podcast to be something it isn’t- the guests are...Read full review »

Never have I enjoyed a podcast as much as I have this one. Love it

Enjoyable podcast, Holly has a very soothing voice. However given the guests are all wealthy celebrities and even Holly’s own travel and recommendations (mainly spon con) is purely to top end hotels and resorts not accessible to the vast majority. Some more diversity would make this much better.

My favourite podcast. My favourite episodes are The Hairy Bikers, Miriam Margolyes and Simon Reeve. I also liked hearing about your travel diaries Holly - you give me so much travel inspo. Thanks

Some of the interviews on this podcast are genuinely the best I’ve ever heard. There’s such a blend from all walks of life. Loved hearing about Katie Melua’s Georgian background and James Martin’s least favourite places this season especially.

Let me start by saying that I enjoy this podcast, but I as a self confessed middle class listener, I can’t help but find it increasingly grating. The general ‘oh how wonderful that your affluent background has afforded your family endless safari/ski trips’ theme is a little exclusive. It would be...Read full review »

Not real travel tips just Privileged / Rich people talking how beautiful their life is in certain location. No real useful tips for the average traveller. Sorry Ruby you are ok but your guests live on a different planet from the rest of us. Going to the bahamas soon and thought i get some...Read full review »

Nice program. But, there aren’t any new episodes. You should at least post when new episodes will be available. Deleting this program, and will check back next year.

Another great episode. Not what I expected but a fascinating guy. By chance last night I watched the Top Gear episode at the North Pole on one of the freeview channels- quite something!

Running their mouths about things they know nothing about.
iRaUnSpokenHero via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/28/22
I am listening from the US so some of these interviewees are not familiar to me but I have loved all of them whether I know them or not. Holly brings their stories to life not just with the 7-8 actual questions but all the insights in between. Very, very interesting and Inspiring. Only tiny...Read full review »

I enjoy the range of guests you have on your show, as well as their various travel experiences. Jessica Nabongo and her travels to 195 countries, as well as her stories about Japan, is currently my favorite episode.
Zia N. via Apple Podcasts · Philippines · 05/20/22
If you are a serious traveller, don’t bother with this podcast. Most of the episodes are minor celebrities who live on a different planet to the rest of us. They waffle on about the 5 star hotels they stayed in and mainly talk about themselves rather than the places they have visited.

Not clear enough for someone like me whose first language is not English.

Just discovered this wonderful podcast and have been listening to it all day, as a travel obsessive I’ve loved every minute of it!

Whether we’ll travelled or not, the stories from a variety of celebrities. I’ve literally listened to every single podcast episode with Bates’s breath at some the most scintillating destinations, giving me a chance to enjoy my own wonderlust. More please for 2022 and on.

Being fairly new to Podcasts (I know, late to the party) I was scrolling and scrolling to find something I could relate to and love to listen to. I am so glad I stumbled across this podcast! It is the PERFECT accompaniment to long drives and lazy mornings. It’s engaging, thought provoking and...Read full review »

This podcast is so full of inspiration! I love the humility of these incredible people and the way they and Holly bring each destination to life. We are still quite cut-off from the world where I am in Australia and making my way through these episodes is bringing me so much joy ♥️ ✈️
Shannenmaree94 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/28/21
This is everything I have wanted from a podcast. Holly has so many guests with fantastic storytelling abilities, able to bring the places they have travelled and their dream food dishes alive with their words and passion and love for travel. Have loved getting lost in their stories!
cgjed via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/23/21
My absolute favourite podcast. I could listen all day, every day, and only wish they were more frequently than weekly!
_ellaparker via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/03/21
Love the combination of travel, history of places, natural history and a personal touch added to each story. You get two in one - learn about the place and the person. Holly is an awesome host and makes people feel at ease and open up about their very personal experiences. Highly recommend!
Doug & PhatGus via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 10/08/21
Fascinating mix of interesting people and places I now really want to visit.
sblom2011 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/09/21
You need to turn your music up way up to listen to this 30 seconds later I’m gone, don’t understand why people publish a podcast with such bad audio

Love this podcast!!!! Great guests Holly, Sir Trevor was very interesting and a great start to season 5. Great listen for anyone keen on travelling :)
greenholly123 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/06/21
Have very much enjoyed these podcasts! Wish I had discovered them before the COVID19 pandemic; however, they have made my long walks in my neighborhood so pleasureful! I now have a lot more travel plans in my future!

Thanks to Holly for creating such an awesome show :)

Why are all the guests men? Odd.

I look forward to a new ep each week and always the best guests!

What an excellent chat. I’d never heard of GO. Such an engaging, entertaining and thoughtful man. His anecdotes were wonderful. Very open hearted and honest. Great voice. Thanks.
reverseswing via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 04/06/21
