The Stephen Rountree Travel Show

I’m exhausted, spent, broke, and utterly elated to announce that after four years of sneaking off to Europe, your blind date introduction to the cities we love, is finally... live.

With Moment Designs. Step-by-step, easy-to-follow directions so you can experience our favorite moments with the cities we love, all based around the popular sites you were going to see anyway. See the sites, but also experience the city and its people. These map-like directions are also purposely vague, so that if some person or someplace calls your name along the way, you follow the first rule of Stephen Rountree travel, and break-trail to answer that call.

And with an in-depth look at the cities we love. Like any good first date, the deeper you get to know each other, the longer the memories of that first evening last.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Who are you?

I write about not just travel but finding real moments and memories that last long after the departure flight lands back home. So whether day or night, good or bad, we always have those moments in reserve and in our dreams.

What is the goal?

To make people’s lives more beautiful by showing them good travel that combines both the famous historical sites they are going to go to no matter what, but also the enchanting modern experiences that only Europe can provide.

Who is your target audience?

Anyone who only has a few days in a city, and probably during their first three trips to that city and wants to do famous attractions plus real-life modern culture found nowhere else but in that city.

What was the genesis behind the idea for the company?

Hoping to give people the kinds of evenings I’ve found in Paris that still haven’t ended because they’ve stayed with me.

Why should we care about another travel podcast?

Because too many people spend thousands of dollars and months in planning and logistical rearranging of life only to spend their days in a new city, in line, in crowds, and in a situation that will only be forgotten. Enchantment and unforgettable times with friends and family exist just around the corner, if only you know where to look, and how to get there.

What makes me different from what's on the market today?

I share good travel experiences not just with a typical drive-by-paragraph or top ten unrelated bakeries spread across Paris, which, once there, are unpractical to get to or nowhere near the famous sites people aren’t going to go without, but I write about travel moments through story, stringing together a series of historical and modern European places and people, which are all, like good stories, related by closeness in geography, theme, or history.
