For his most ambitious project yet, Simon Reeve travels from the northernmost state of the United States to the very tip of Argentina. Along the way, he crosses the most diverse landscapes, spread over two continents that together make up a quarter of the earth's surface. The first season takes place in North and Central America, from the icy wasteland of Alaska to the tropical heat of Costa Rica. In the second season, Simon travels further south through South America. Thanks to his typical enthusiasm, humor and curiosity, he ends up in the most diverse places that are hardly known even by the locals.
