The content is usually interesting the opinions I often find myself agreeing with, but not uncommon to disagree. Overall, far too much advertising.
Amateur Traveler is the only travel show I keep listening to. The show has pace and direction without feeling banal. There perfect balance of Structure and Wanderlust.
My favourite podcast - so many interesting guests and destinations from all over the world! Great for trip planning or living vicariously for places I might not make it to visit myself.
Amateur Traveler is an amazing resource for big and small ideas about upcoming travel destinations.
My favorite travel podcast! Thank you Chris !
