Excited for the next adventure? Where to Go, produced by the team behind the award-winning DK Eyewitness travel guides, is here to help. Each fortnight we talk to local experts about the destination they have chosen to call their home, exploring their personal connection to the place, what makes it so special and the best things to see and do. And from time to time, they’ll be talking to some very special guests about their favourite places to go, alongside some quick fire travel questions. Where to Go is also supported by our colleagues from DK Travel in Germany (Vis-à-Vis, Top 10 and more).

    BONUS Episode: Reasons to travel the world with Kacie Rose

    This week we've got a very special bonus episode with social media sensation Kacie Rose, whose funny and refreshingly honest account of the highs and lows of living abroad has earned her a following of over 1.5 million people.
    In conversation with Lucy Richards, Kacie talks all about the joys of solo travel, dealing with homesickness, embracing failure and the importance of doing the sh*t that scares you.
    Plus, tune in for a behind the scenes look into the making of Kacie's brand new book, You Deserve Good Gelato.

    Glasgow

    Glasgow

    This week we’re off to Glasgow with travel writer and whisky expert Sarah JC Gillespie. Home to exciting independent businesses, lively nightlife and an unparalleled music scene, Glasgow packs a cultural punch.
    Tune in for a Victorian cemetery beloved by Hollywood filmmakers, drool-worthy doughnuts that are building a reputation and unmissable whisky distilleries for those who want to taste their tipples right at the source.

    Stockholm

    Stockholm

    This week we're off to Stockholm, famous for its clean living, sleek design, crisp winters and long summer nights. Our guest Malcolm Jack shares the best late-night bites, the locals' favourite swimming spots and the story of an ill-fated warship extraordinarily well preserved by the Baltic waters into which it sank. And, of course, it wouldn't be a Stockholm episode without mention of saunas and ABBA!

    Quebec

    Quebec

    This week we’re off to Quebec with food and travel writer Pamela MacNaughton. Together we explore the vibrant culture, sights and flavours of Canada’s largest province, often fondly referred to as “the Europe of North America.”
    Tune in for hot chocolate snobbery, postcard perfect views in Quebec City, mural art in Montreal and ice canoeing across the Saint Lawrence River. Of course, we couldn’t forget to mention Canada’s national dish in the place it originated – it goes without saying poutine is on the menu.
    Pamela's restaurant recommendations:
    Aux Anciens Canadiens (traditional québécois cuisine) 
    Buffet de l'Antiquaire (diner with breakfast poutine)
    Chez Gaston (traditional poutine)
    Restaurant Sagamité (Indigenous cuisine)
    La Korrigaine Brasserie Artisanale (woman-owned microbrewery)
    Le Fin Gourmet (gourmet, mother/daughter owned and operated)
    Tannière3 (unforgettable fine dining)

    Where to Go is back for season 7! Starting off in style, we're headed to the Deep South with special guest Lynn Brown.
    Home to world-famous festivals, evocative landscapes, an unmatched musical legacy and a complex history, this week's region gives us plenty to talk about.  
    Tune in for unmissable jazz in New Orleans, the little-known white sand beaches in Alabama and the surprising connection between food and the civil rights movement.
    Lynn's hole-in-the-wall spot is Betty’s Place: https://bettyzplace.weebly.com/

Sound quality

Sound quality is awful. Which is a shame as the content is good. Maybe invest in some decent equilment

Congratulations on your life changing news!

I discovered your podcast a month ago and I’ve binged my way through the episodes while I walk my dog. This year I’m moving home and my daughter is travelling before she starts Uni so my own holiday fund was needed to cover other things this year but I’ve been able to get a cheeky trip to Amsterdam and I’ve lived vicariously through your guests! I’ve got lots of plans for 2024 and beyond thanks to your suggestions, engaging guest speakers and really I have to say the chemistry between the presenters really themselves.. a genuine team it’s always a pleasure to listen to you and the way you engage with the guests.
I’m so glad the series is back and I don’t usually comment but just heard your news and felt compelled to share my good wishes to you and to say thanks and share my appreciation to you both and the team that pulls the podcast together. Xx
