In Mexico, Nick travels from Los Mochis in Sinaloa to Creel in Chihuahua, witnessing astonishing feats of railway engineering and breathtaking landscapes.
Travelling north from Trondheim, Nick stays for a night on the River Namsen, takes a helicopter ride, meets a reindeer herder and goes swimming in near freezing sea.
From the misty mountains of Sa Pa to the jamppacked city of Hanoi with its five million scooters, Nick discovers a Vietnam of newfound prosperity that is developing fast and thriving.
Over the course of three train journeys, Nick visits Malaysia, a country of contrasts. It is a land of advanced technology, rural simplicity, megacities, virgin rainforest and many different cultures.
Nick kicks off a new series, taking in three capitals: Prague in the Czech Republic, Bratislava in Slovakia, and Budapest in Hungary, with a climb and a cruise.
Nick names this trip "The Volcano Express". He travels from Mount Vesuvius to Mount Etna on a journey from Naples to Sicily, where a gyrocopter trip goes wrong.
The presenter tours Romania, undertaking a journey he calls 'The Transylvania Express'. He begins in Cluj-Napoca, taking a train to the disused salt mine of Salina Turda, where the vast underground cavern has surprising new uses. Nick also pays a visit to Romania's top tourist attraction, Bran Castle, the inspiration behind Bram Stoker's classic novel, Dracula.
