Don't get me wrong, most of the time I do enjoy Below Deck. But after multiple seasons, the editing and the formula are wearing on me. ๐Ÿ˜†

What else is out there that has:

  • a sense of the work of travel
  • more sights & culture
  • some good group dynamics -- don't want a 'tour guide' show where everything's always filtered through the same person's lens. I like watching people go on a journey, together

Any recommendations?

In the UK there's a series called Race Across the World, which seems like what you'd enjoy. Pairs of people compete in a loooong race in which they have a limited budget & have to work along the way to fund their travel. It's enthralling seeing people's different strategies, and how their relationships develop, especially the parent/child combos. The next season is Morocco to Norway, that should be a blast!
