We're only a few episodes in at this point, but as these series have gone on, and the guys have gotten older, I've come to appreciate their relationship. Generally good humoured, and not afraid to poke fun at themselves.

Stunning landscapes are abound, and they meet all sorts of lovely people. What's not to like?
