“The Making Of Rick Steves’ Europe” – After 16 years and seventy travel shows, Rick and his crew take you behind the scenes to show you just how they produce this series.

Joining the crew as they scamper through Milan and around Lake Como, you’ll follow the creative process as the challenges and surprises (and the need for a good sense of humor) that come with travel are shaped into a finished show.

Rick’s Travel Philosophy:

Travel is freedom…one of the last great sources of legal adventure. Travel is intensified living, with maximum thrills per minute. It’s recess, and we need it. Experiencing the real Europe requires catching it by surprise, going casual…Through the Back Door.
