We love us some Anthony Bourdain (No Reservations is a must, especially in marathon form), so it’s great news to us when we hear that his new series The Layover is starting on November 21st!
He’s still at home on the Travel Channel:
Bourdain is back like never before with a high octane series that gives him just 24-48 hours to explore an unexpected destination. Viewers get a ringside seat as Tony goes on the hunt for local intel and explores the essential “must see” places, people and foods in locations throughout the U.S., Asia and Europe. His itineraries, completely off the beaten track and all completed within a matter of hours, are mini-trips of a lifetime. No nonsense and budget friendly, Bourdain reveals insider tips that only the most seasoned travelers would know.
In each hour-long episode of the 10-part series, Bourdain explores a different jet-setting hub proving that layovers are opportunities for travelers to mingle with locals, crash parties, dine on local cuisine, and explore cultures. From New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami to Hong Kong, Singapore, London, Rome, Montreal and Amsterdam, viewers learn where to go, where to stay and what to eat, to maximize their enjoyment no matter how much or little time they have in that city.
So cool. Usually people are really intimidated by the lack of time they have in certain areas, especially with flight layovers. What they don’t understand that any opportunity can be a perfect one if you know how to go about it!
We can’t wait to see the new show, Anthony!
