December 8: London: A Royal Tour – Watch with Josh Springer

6:00 p.m. PT / 9:00 p.m. ET | REGISTER

Rick Steves’ Europe TV producer Josh Springer joins us for the premiere of our newest public television episode, "London: A Royal Tour"! We kick things off with red-coat pageantry at Buckingham Palace and a lesson in riding black cabs and the Tube like a local. After visiting the Churchill War Rooms — a WWII time warp — we travel even farther back in time at the Tower of London to get acquainted with England’s royal origins. Along the way, Josh offers behind-the-scenes peeks at the whirlwind work of producing “Rick Steves’ Europe.” So, pour yourself a pint and don't forget to mind the gap!

Paris & Provence: Gabe’s 2025 Trip Report

This event was recorded on December 1, 2025.

France is Europe's most diverse and delicious country to explore, and this summer, Monday Night Travel host Gabe Gunnink indulged in this diversity from Paris to Provence and from mountaintop hamlets to seaside escapes. Together with Gabe, we relive this adventure, bookending the trip in Paris with a Bastille Day bash and Tour de France fanfare. In between, we zip down on a high-speed train to market-filled Aix-en-Provence, drive to workaday Arles to study its Van Gogh history, kayak under the vast Pont du Gard aqueduct, and swim across the azure waters of rocky calanques near Cassis.
