TV.com summary |
Passport to Europe is a television show on the Travel Channel. The show follows host Samantha Brown around Europe visiting various popular European cities, including prime travel destinations such as Venice, Florence, Rome, Paris and London, as well as smaller cities such as Stratford-upon-Avon and Penzance in England.
In the course of each show, Brown tours each city and interacts with the town's locals. She also visits local landmarks - including popular restaurants and shopping locales - and educates viewers on events in the city's history.
The show was nominated for a Daytime Emmy in 2006 in the same category that the Travel Channel series Great Hotels went on to win.
In July 2006, Brown announced that Passport to Europe had officially wrapped, and that Passport to Latin America would start filming in September 2006.
Brown also hosts Great Hotels.
