"Rick Steves' Festive Europe" catches Europeans doing what they do so expertly — celebrating the good life. Keeping the successful formula of "European Insights" and "Delicious Europe," this lively half-hour special captures European culture at its most festive.
Rick experiences the pleasures of Andalucia, ventures into the reveler-filled Parisian streets on Bastille Day, takes in the royal pageantry in London, wanders through a Venetian palace, runs with the bulls in Pamplona, dines at an exclusive mens' club in Basque country, embraces high culture in Vienna, enjoys the lovable chaos of Naples, and walks the final stretch of the Camino di Santiago in Spain.
RICK STEVES' EUROPE is public television's most-watched, longest-running travel series. Written and hosted by best-selling guidebook author Rick Steves, each half-hour show takes viewers to Europe's most interesting places, from great cities to off-the-beaten-path discoveries.
