In the Alps
Season 1Episode 560 min

In the Alps

Paul tries out 'healthy' tourism in three Alpine countries. In Switzerland's wellness resort Bad Radaz, it's strife for a perfect body, and Olympic athletes' condition tests, basically altogether a rather unsavoury diet and gym experience and rather pointless in his eyes. In Austria's capital Vienna it's mental sanity, or rather absurdity in a specialized museum and body-painting to instantly change personality. In Italian Duranham, he joins a community of over 1000 who seek to enlighten the soul in dubious ways, but enjoys their temple deep inside a mountain.

In Scotland
Season 1Episode 660 min

In Scotland

Paul visits Scotland, famous for active holidays in Britain. Hunting isn't his thing, not even for the grey 'tree rat' squirrel. Nothing macho in the Cairgorns Mountains either, so he abandons mountain bike champion Shore for carts, even if these go down terribly fast. Movie stars' coach and combat expert Charlie is asked to 'man up' of Paul, strangely in medieval armour. Paul hates leaving his castle hotel for 'activities', so he sneaks off to a farmer who 'diversified' into training 'stunt drakes' (ducks). Next the highland games. Finally a woodland hunting course.
