In this week’s episode, Simon and Greg welcome into the studio the co-founder of Lonely Planet, Tony Wheeler. Tony has travelled to every corner of the world, including 47 US states. To mark the 250th anniversary of US independence, Greg and Simon quiz Tony on his opinions on tipping culture, roadside motels, and the pros and cons of the Amtrak service.
They also discuss the recent chaos across European airports, which saw one group of British schoolchildren stranded overnight at Barcelona airport – why didn’t their airline step up to the mark and provide accommodation?
Plus, they answer your burning travel questions, including a Scandinavian city break dilemma, and the ideal time to book a flight to Prague. Send your questions to thetravelexpert@telegraph.co.uk.
