Tom Williams begins one of the most famous walks on the planet, the Inca Trail.
His journey starts in Cusco, formerly the capital of the Incan Empire and it provides a chance to acclimatise to the high altitudes of the Andes as the city itself is actually situated higher than Machu Picchu. Here Tom will get ready for the journey to the lost city of the Incas.
Tom also checks out the Cairns Highlands in a new Winnebago. The area is a natural wonderland - with World Heritage Rainforests, waterfalls, national parks, crater lakes and volcanic formations against a backdrop of rolling green hills.
Jennifer Hawkins continues her drive up the West coast of California - second stop, Carmel. Don't look for streetlights, house numbers and neon signs though. High-heels may be worn by permit only and dogs run free on Carmel Beach.
Andrew Daddo is in Corsica, the fourth largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. Andrew opts to take a leisurely tour of the west coast. His journey begins with a walk with a donkey through the north-west where seaside cliffs and grottoes, jagged sun-baked mountains, deEpisode gorges, white-sand beaches and pristine Mediterranean landscapes merge. Andrew also finds out where to seek good travel advice before an overseas trip and shows you how to make better use of your left over foreign change.
And according to the locals, Queensland's second largest city during the 1870s gold rush, Charters Towers, is one of the most haunted towns in Australia. Robbie Gough is a long-time resident and it wasn’t until a recent ghostly encounter that he started to believe. He shares with us the town’s secrets.
