Travel Guides

It's not hard to understand why views about this series are so extreme, but since when has Reality TV been "real"? Scripted or not, it's definitely edited, and -- for the record -- I'm not Australian but I don't think the series reflects badly on Australians at all. It's often funny, and definitely shows many aspects of wherever they go.

Over the years they mix up the groups from time to time, which is good, because some of the participants are becoming a bit jaded after having been literally everywhere. And I have no sympathy for someone who downgrades a trip because they didn't like the food or said the bed was too hard or you had to drive yourselves. Tough: you signed up for this.

But overall, a terrific concept, well-executed and (in many cases) saves me the time and money of trying to go to those places myself. Love the show.

Why are these cackling morons so unlikable......oh that just went full circle and answered itself. I'm all for having a laugh but are these obese laugh at anything lobotomised plebs the best ambassadors we can muster?

Never watched travel guides but thought I would take a look because I'm going to Finland.

What an insult to my intelligence.

Bogan Australians being loud and obnoxious is not entertainment.

Why can't they interview middle class Australians who can put a sentence together and record objective comments about the great places to visit? And include interviews of locals about what they think are the highlights of their country.

I can't imagine what the people who live in this country, who've crossed paths with these ugly Australians, think of us. What an insult to the country visited.

How can anyone watch this trash?

Australian's mostly hate this show because they don't think that's what they're like :) It's hilarious and well worth watching for both the travel destinations and the humour.

Love most of the teams on this show but Kevin and Janetta are SOOOO boring and try so hard to be snobs. It's so disheartening and hard to watch their behaviour. My husband and I travel a lot and have visited most of the countries featured on the show, and more than once on some occasions having travelled business class and budget too. Wish this couple would show some respect for countries they visit and not be so up themselves. Everyone on the show should appreciate the opportunity they've been given by Travel Guides. Absolutely love Kev, Dorian and Teng, Matt and Brett. Stack and Mel and the Fren family. Just love the show - great job keep it up.
