‘Getaway,’ Australia’s most popular televised travel show, has made the Italian capital of Rome the latest Urban Adventures destination to be brought into Australian homes. Taken under the wing of a local Urban Adventures guide, ‘Getaway’ presenter Catriona Rowntree took a leisurely three-hour stroll through this romantic European metropolis, following the pages of Elizabeth Gilbert’s best-selling book, ‘Eat Pray Love.’

Perhaps no other North American city rocks quite as hard as Seattle – the celebrated birthplace of grunge music – where artists such as Ann Wilson and Kurt Cobain first got their start. From its extensive rock pedigree to its growing hip-hop and electronic music scenes, the sights and sounds of ‘Jet City’ are revealed on a new 2.5-hour tour courtesy of Seattle Urban Adventures, the subject of the latest episode of Getaway, the highest-rated travel show in Australia, with approximately 1.2 million weekly viewers.

On Thursday 1 April, Urban Adventures was featured on Getaway, Australia’s favourite travel show. The chosen destination – one of more than 50 in 30-plus countries on six continents in which Urban Adventures offers unique day tours – was the inimitable Golden Gate city of San Francisco, California.
