  • Travel Quest S01 E05 - Yap

    A remote Pacific island that’s a diver’s paradise. This remote Pacific island is a diver’s paradise and Bill takes advantage of this by diving with giant Manta Rays the size of a small plane. The craziest dive though is when he feeds dozens of sharks with no protective gear. Trying to top that on land, Bill makes a mind blowing deal with a local chief to film where no one has filmed before…The Forbidden Island.

  • Travel Quest S01 E06 - Madagascar

    Discovering a rare lemur that dances and sings. Unlike in the Disney films, the real Madagascar has no talking lions, zebras or hippos. What it does have is the most unique collection of plants and animals anywhere on earth. Bill fights the nearly inaccessible land to find a rare lemur that dances and another one that sings.

  • Travel Quest S01 E07 - Mongolia

    Unforgettable adventures with the earth’s last nomadic people. There is nothing on earth that compares to Mongolia. Here the last nomadic people range their livestock over millions of acres of grasslands. Drinking fermented mare’s milk (worst tasting drink ever), riding a yak and finding the original wild horses are just a few of Bill's adventures in this enchanted land.

  • Travel Quest S01 E08 - North Pole

    Tracking and filming polar bears. The Travel Quest crew takes an icebreaker to the North Pole just in time to make a satellite phone call to wish Bill's mother a happy birthday (she is so shocked she doesn't recognize him). We also track and film the biggest predators on earth…polar bears.

  • Travel Quest S01 E09 - Rwanda…Gorillas

    Coming face-to-face with our mighty cousins. Bill tracks through never ending mud, heavy vegetation and steep mountains, to come face-to-face with our mighty cousins. He also traces the life, and finds the remnants, of the camp of one of his idols - Diane Fossey.

  • Travel Quest S01 E10 - Botswana

    Elephants, hippos, lions plus Victoria Falls. Botswana is a wildlife lover’s dream with massive herds of elephants, immense pods of hippos and some of the largest prides of lions anywhere. It’s also the home of Victoria Falls…the largest falls in the world. Bill was not content on just seeing the falls; he climbed to its base and took a shower under its pounding water. While there, he joined a whitewater raft team in order to film the most wild and treacherous rapids in the world.  He would not leave unscathed.

  • Travel Quest S01 E11 - New Zealand & Australia

    Crewing an America’s Cup yacht and Flying a Soviet MIG Jet. Bill had two adventures in mind as he visited the land of long clouds. He has always been fascinated with the Americas Cup yacht racing so he took a position on one as a grinder – it’s as intense as the name implies. But the big adventure is riding in, and then flying, a Soviet Mig Jet doing stunts and mind numbing close fly-bys. The pilot pushes Bill to the limit with 6 G's of pressure - enough to blackout many an unwary stunt flyer.

  • Travel Quest S01 E12 - Kenya's Great Grasslands

    A spectacular African adventure. Bicycling is a safe and leisurely activity, until you decide to do it through the wilderness of Kenya with large lion, elephant and buffalo populations. If that adventure was not enough for Bill, he decided to go cliff climbing where baboons and leopards take refuge. Add tracking lions, walking up to rhinos and observing hyenas and you have a great African adventure.

  • Travel Quest S01 E13 - Wild Indonesia

    The Komodo Dragon & The Orangutan. Bill had two wild icons he wanted to experience. The first is the largest lizard in the world - the Komodo Dragon. Walking among these massive beasts was unnerving to say the least. From there, he flew, drove, boated and trekked to meet Asia's one ape - the orangutan. These apes are ten times as strong as a human and will make you do what they want you to do.
