Now on bbc news, the Travel Show revisits some of its best Eco Trips from the last few years. From one of the worlds most exciting train rides, to hurtling downhill with outbreaks. To Moose Tracking in the forests of canada. This week, we revisit some of our Wildest Adventures. Hello, and welcome to the Travel Show with me, Carmen Roberts, coming to you this week from my local park in tokyo. Weve not been travelling these past few months which has been an odd change of pace for All Of Us here on the programme But over the past few years we have been to hundreds of incredible places and faced many unusual and occasionally uncomfortable situations. I faced my fear of heights jumping off the Sky Tower in new zealand. Ignored basic Safety Advice and danced with scissors in peru, and played real life Mario Kart down some of the busiest road in tokyo. But its notjust me, though stopping All Of Us Travel Show regulars have had some pretty wild adventures and this week we are looking back at some of our favourite. First up, and 2018 we went tojordan to mark 100 years since the culmination of the arab revolt, the legendary campaign against the Ottoman Empire which was famously led, it is claimed, by lawrence of arabia. We sent Rajan Tojordan to experience a Battle Re Enactment against one of the key supply lines. This is a key construction of one of the original trains and it used to carry supplies to the Ottoman Troops and i am going to take a trip through this stunning landscape. Baking hot out here i hope it is cool inside. This is a glorious feeling, huge, Vast Arid Desert around me, these Big Granite Mountains on either side, just how you imagined it. Oh, my god its horses wow thats a bomb i think you will find, thats a form. 0h what the hell that is loud so, what im getting is that this train is being hijacked and that a bomb has been exploded on the line and we cannot move. We have been well and truly hijacked. I tell you what, for a re enactment, it is pretty realistic. Im actually scared, even though i know they are blank. What the hell ok, im going im going, 0k dont leave me here 0k, 0k. Hands up, Hands Up man, Hands Up constant attacks on the 0ttoman� s Railway Supply lines worked stopping the war ended and several new nations, syria, iraq, libya and ordered with informed. The origins of The Middle East that know today can be traced to these attacks on the railway and the subsequent covering up of the region by The End french. That was rajan there and a bombardment in the blazing heat of the jordanian desert. Its a bit of a Temperature Change now and we had to the Chilly Austrian Alps where ben braved 30 degrees centigrade and a Gathering Storm for a pot of Snow Camping and lets just say it didnt all go to plan. We have put up all of the tents now. Mostly these guys. Its going well, it is a lot warmer than i thought. So after some hard work, our camp is set and i will be honest, a hot drink has never been more satisfying. As the sun fell behind the mountains, little did we know that this would be a last chance to take in the amazing environment. It was most definitely the calm before the storm. Its absolutely freezing and getting colder by the second, it really is beautiful and id never have seen anything like it in my life. We melt snow over Camp Stove tops to make our dinners of rehydrated chicken noodles. But then, the dramatically worsening weather was taking its toll. Somewhere along the way i took a Wrong Turn and now im in the deeper snow. Oh god. Oh god, oh god. Oh, god, its so deep. That was difficult. 0k. Heres my house for the night. Oh, its so cold the ground feels like a freezer. 0k. It is currently 2am and i have not slept at all. I think we are right in the middle of the storm and the winds are so strong. But the worst was yet to come. We woke up early to a blizzard of snow. With the wind hitting me this hard im shocked at how drastically this amazing place can change overjust a few hours. But then it was all hands on deck to pack down our tents. With visibility restricted to just a few metres and places it was important we stick together. 0ur Path was never too farfrom a sheer drop down the mountain. Getting down was going to be much harder than getting up. The storm had meant the whole mountain had been shut down for safe reasons and we would essentially need to be evacuated. So, snowploughs to the rescue. Its not really the morning i was hoping for because you cant really see anything because it is such a blizzard, But it is such a great experience, something you dont do every day. But now it is time to go home. Next, we head to the state of hidalgo, central mexico, when mike enjoyed one eco parque� s notorious Night Walk where tourist can experience a brutal recreation of an illegal Border Crossing into the United States. This reconstruction has been designed by locals to try to persuade migrants not to attempt the sometimes perilous journey which claimed 300 lives last year. We are told to meet inside the main gate. And even though these guys are playing a part, they really mean business. So the Guy Yelling at the top of his lungs as the person taking us across the border. He is taking our character extremely seriously. So firstly, we are alljumping in the back of a pickup truck. I have no idea where we are going. Not giving us any tips. And we are going to attempt to cross the Border Theyve created for us tonight. I have to watch my step. There is gunshots, there is silence, this bridge is totally not stable and theres people crawling on the ground. I dont even know whats going on But the group is slowly. You 0k . Yes. Unsure footing, i can kind of deal with. But things get much scarier when you are forced to the ground by these very authentic looking bandits. Crack. Normally you would welcome the arrival of the police with arms, But our coyote tells us to run. Sirens. We have to go, we have to go panting. The idea of this park is to show people what hardships and work goes into Border Crossings, and this is a perfect example. This is the moment, this is the moment. 0ur Coyote is stressing out. The next truck, as soon as it comes, werejumping in the back. Sirens. Theyre coming. Sirens off in the distance. Here at the eco parque, they are hoping the experience will end up saving many lives. Its certainly given mayn of the guests here pause for thought. Sirens. Well, stay with us, because coming up. Cheering. Henry dodges obstacles on a downhill Cart Race in the philippines. And i hang from a waterfall in peru. Oh, my gosh so, dont go away. Right. We are Crossing Continents now and heading to canada in search of one of its most famous residents. And even though it is big and noisy, the canadian moose is surprisingly elusive. But luckily, krista had the help of one of the countrys top trackers. Howling. You must be pierre . Yes, iam. Lovely to meet you. What an amazing song. You really sounded like a wolf. Thanks although wolves dont normally carry guitars. And i dont know if you see. Pierre takes tourists around this forest, the worlds biggest research forest. As ever, Sunrise And Sunset are the best times for spotting. He reckons there is an 80 chance. This is the mark that a big male with big antlersjust made. 0n the moose, we are trying to find the moose, we are trying to approach them with all the ancestral technique the wind and the noise, and we are also doing moose, different calls, to attract them. Sometimes we are very lucky. The moose calls you make, could you explain the noises . What do they say . Honking. The female noise is like this. Honking. And the male, it is short But deep. Kind of rough. Grunting. Its very deep, because moose are big. They are the biggest member of the deer family. Male grunting. He takes me off deep into the woods, catching very faint calls he can hear in the distance. Hes not above smearing himself in a � moose bath� , which is basically a collection of unpleasant substances the animal has left behind. The going is heavy. I have a tough time in the boggy ground. But after a couple of hours with two soaking wet feet and daylight disappearing, we admit defeat, get back in the Car And Head for home. Then, suddenly. I see it oh, my goodness huge antlers on that one. The boys are out tonight. Look at that. Distant, But definitely there. Female moose call. 0ff Pierre went, chasing the moose into the sunset. Crista there, enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of the canadian wilderness. Next up, were off to the philippines and the island of negros, made famous by a local sport that has attracted thousands of thrillseekers from all over the world, including our very own henry golding. We dont recommend you try this at home. Cheering. Thats insane i saw him flying about 30 feet laughter. 0n Something thats. Its a unique thing. It might look like a few bits of bamboo strung together with wheels, But. That is pretty much what it is add a hill and a few obstacles, youve got a sport that will definitely get the adrenaline going. It all started when local Environmentalist Nicky decided to ramp up the Childrens Game and turn it into a heart stopping adventure sport. It could be described as an extreme sport. An insane sport, nicky. Cheering. Nice, nice there is the Injury Rate . He is still alive. So, missing about 15 trees on the way down, 0k . That is important. Oh, dear. Oh, dear gaining speed yeah lively music. Now, they make it look very easy, But its far from it. You have to be careful of where you are heading, because these tracks arent straight lines, and the speed just picks up a crazy amount. You need a way to slow down. Watch out for those trees close call laughter. After a few attempts, i start to get the hang of things. Raiding in a crew as for the big jumps, well, i think i will leave that to the professionals. Laughter. Yeah, good job, good job yeah Woo Hoo and finally, this week, one of my all time favourite experiences here on the Travel Show. Back in 2016, i travelled to the andes in Northern Peru to the home of the yumbilla falls, one of the largest in the world. And i was incredibly lucky to be one of the first people to try and abseil down it. Your legs, carmen, nice like this. Lean backwards. Taking off was terrifying. Its hard to stay up with the constant pressure of the water pushing me backwards, and im told this is the easy part. 0k we reached the tiny ledge overlooking the last 80 metres and prepare for our descent. What a view oh, my gosh, its amazing Woo Hoo 0k. Here we go. Were so close. This is amazing so far, so good. But halfway down, im in for a shock. Slightly unnerving were going to lose The Rock now and go into freefall. Ah i can do this. Ah, yep, this is good. Without The Rock face, im literally hanging. It is hard work on my hands. Basically, this rope is holding my body weight. Im having to. This way of coming down is faster and scarier, But a lot more exciting. We reach the last part of the descent, and im so relieved to finally get to the bottom. Whoa i know its crazy, i didnt expect so much water that was amazing. Yeah well, thats it for this week and our look back at some of our Wildest Adventures here on the Travel Show. And hopefully we will be on the road, pushing our limits again very soon. But in the meantime, you can keep up on social media, where well give you some inspiration for your future travel plans. Just search bbc Travel Show on all the main platforms and youll find us there. But until next time, from me Carmen Roberts and the rest of the Travel Show team at home, all Around The World, its goodbye. Ultimately it is an afternoon of seven spells and scattered showers across the country But was a rather grey and murky start particularly the coast with some mist and fog. Quite mild out there and theres also some rain as well. Has been pushing in from the South West and wales. It should much further than that as it pushes towards the london area. Bad weatherfront that as it pushes towards the london area. Bad Weather Front Wall is away and systems and espouse bringing out further north But as the heat of the day started to develop, that is when we will see some sharp and possibly sundry downpours breaking out across wales, Northern England and in. There will be hit and miss, they could be slow moving because the winds are very light. Top temperatures of 22 degrees, not quite as one in the South East. The Rain Shouldnt be an issue for ladies finals at wimbledon. Maybe sunshine by The End of the afternoon. Another area of low Pressure Washing in the wings to push in through the Night Tonight so that means on sunday, out to the west will see more Cloud And Sherry Brexit Rain further East Sunshine Sting But then some sharp and sundry downpours through North East England and scotland. Some of these could be quite torrential. For going to pick an area that could stay dry, East Anglia and South East england with highs of 23 degrees on sunday. That means for the mens final, again it will be a dry affair perhaps some brightness from time to time, some rain arriving by The End of the day. Finished But that does mean there is the potential for some showery rain towards The End of the heroes. Moving into monday, we have this frontal system so producing some outbreaks of rain. No pressure really centred across the country and that means monday is quite a messy story to tell. There will be some showers and longer spells of rain almost anywhere on monday and temperatures around 21 degrees. 0nce Windy eases out of the way, High Pressure is going to build in behind and that means we will see a good deal of dry, settled and increasingly warm weather by The End of the week.
