Helloworld, Australia’s new premium travel program, premieres this Sunday with a foodie tour of France and Italy and a canoe ride in Canada’s Rocky Mountains, at 4.30pm on Nine and 9Now.

Sonia Kruger checks out the beauty of the Canadian Rockies, beginning her sightseeing trip at spectacular Lake Louise, where she finds one of the most peaceful ways to enjoy the lake – by canoe. To escape from the cold, Sonia pops into the luxurious Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise, whose famous guests have included Queen Elizabeth and Alfred Hitchcock, for their famous fondue.

If you’re in need of a tropical holiday, Bec Hewitt has the perfect place in mind right here in Queensland: Hamilton Island, the world-class destination in the Whitsundays. Bec’s day begins at the Beach Club, a beachside resort on the shores of Catseye Beach. After a tour of the accommodation options which include stunning views of the Coral Sea, she grabs a bite to eat at the local family favourite, Manta Ray.

Comedian Vince Sorrenti travels to France and Italy for the ultimate foodie tour. Stohrer, the oldest patisserie in Paris, is first on his list for a delicious chocolate éclair, then it’s off to the La Fermette fromagerie for some cow milk cheese and A la Mere de Famille, the City of Love’s famous chocolatier, for scrumptious hand-crafted treats. Vince then crosses the border to Orvieto in Italy for a pasta-making masterclass where he can’t resist trying the final product. 

This week we also find Stevie Jacobs in Port Vila, the breathtaking capital of Vanuatu, exploring the best this beachside city has to offer. He learns about the cultural delights of the area at the Ekasup Cultural Village before visiting Hideaway Island, an island surrounded by stunning marine wildlife that includes the world’s only underwater post office!

Helloworld encores nationally on 9Life on Wednesday at 12:30pm and Sunday at 11:00am
