Travel Channel Goes for More Booze Traveler

NEW YORK: Travel Channel has given the go-ahead to a 16-episode third season of the alcohol-themed reality show Booze Traveler.

Booze Traveler looks on as host Jack Maxwell travels the globe in search of interesting drinking traditions. The series sees Maxwell visit such locations as Argentina, Finland, Guatemala, Hawaii, Sicily, Tanzania and Texas. It is made by Karga Seven Productions in association with White Reindeer Productions.

"When Jack sits down with a stranger and a couple of drinks, the whole world opens up," said Courtney White, the senior VP of programming and production at Travel Channel. "As we've seen from the overwhelmingly positive response to our hit series like Bizarre Foods and Expedition Unknown, Travel Channel viewers love discovering a location through its people and stories. It's no surprise that with more than 1.8 million viewers each week, Booze Traveler would find similar success."
