Lyon, France



Enjoyed Season 2
I have enjoyed Season 2 and will be watching the weekend series as well. Samantha has a bright, cheery and lighthearted look at the places she visits. The shows are about 22 minutes each and that is often enough time to take a quick break to armchair travel places I probably will never see first hand.

Wonderful season
I loved this season as much as I liked the first one. Again I loved the way Samantha's humor and presentation of the historical facts blend to help me decide if I want to visit the places in each episode.

More entertainment than actual travel log
Probably not your best bet if you are actually interested in visiting the places featured. The show focuses less on attractions and more on entertaining items. For example, I have no idea what I should or shouldn't see in Marseilles, except that there is a harbor, but I do know how soap is made and the ingredients of bouillabaisse. On the bright side, Samantha Brown is a little ball of sunshine and makes the shows fun to watch. If you enjoy couch traveling, the show is ideal. If you are a serious European traveler, you're probably better off with Rick Steves. Still entertaining, fun, and eminently watchable.
