Part of the Touring travel video series, which invites viewers on a guided world expedition, exploring one special theme at a time, Touring the Great Festivals of Europe tours cultural festivals throughout Europe. The program transports viewers to eight countries for cultural celebration and merriment. Along the way, commentary explains the origin of each homegrown festival. Tourist attraction is not the purpose of these festivals; they exist to honor and revive local cultural traditions. Viewers experience Switzerland, Basel, Spain, France, and Brussels.
