Good Travel Podcast

Really enjoyed the podcast. Good balance of tips and opinions. Good presenting style, easy and relaxed. I even enjoyed the interlude music which was catchy and themed. Well done Mark.

Of interest to all travellers

I have been listening to Mark's podcast for many months now and look forward to each new episode. It is always interesting to hear his stories of life on the road or in the air. Who knows from which bathroom he will podcast from next!! Keep up the good work, Mark.

The best podcast on the web

Mark's insightful podcast is always full of brilliant topics. One of the few that still remains excellent from start to finish without being overly verbose, it has always captured my attention. Reliably delivered weekly, his podcast is amongst the top podcasts in the world and the content is refreshingly rich, detailed and funny. It wouldn't be stressing the point to say subscribe now! It's definitely worth it.
