  • i search for this video for 2yrs finally i got it ,awesome music man awesome really

  • Sheer nostalgia! Love this! Thanks for sharing this. :)

  • I still watch Globe Trekker it on Travel Channel and i like it a lot. But the music theme I hear when I watch the show on the TV it's slighty different. On the chorus, it has some kind of instrument making a unique sound between the 2nd e 3rd beats (on the "and": 2 AND 3)

  • this song makes me feel as if i accomplished everything in my life inspiring :D

  • I LOVE this theme. It brings me joy! 

  • we are watching these videos in my geography class i love the shows and the music

  • @computerdoctor3287 do u go to granite park jr?

  • OMG this song is my childhood. I could watch this show for hours and imagine the world. tv has really gone down hill.

  • Every time I heard the theme to the show back in the 90s I just wanted to get on a plane and go somewhere.

  • always inspiring i love the show and their all hosts. music was breathtaking .i love all the theme produced by Lonely Planet. thank you

  • my dad used to watch this show back in 1999-2001 i was 5 years old.......i loved this song at the credits......he used to call me every time to come and listen

  • @vcc100100 amazingly i also used to wait for the song at the credits...love it

  • Brilliant

  • Awww... This tune recalls lots of memories :)

  • in my time LP ment Lonely Planet not Linking Park or Lovers Pay !

  • I love Lonely Pnaet since 1995!!!

  • Thanks for posting this!!! I have the first 2 soundtracks when it was still called Lonely Planet, not Pilot Guides or Globe Trekker (not the same)!!! My younger brother and I were OBSESSED with the show and the amazing music!!! We saw Ian Wright give a really funny lecture on his travels in our area and that was incredible!!! Every time I hear this, I want to find my passport and get my arse on a plane to somewhere!!! Listened to this all the way to Australia!!! Cheers!!!

  • 9 years ago i was smoking hash oil .. watching this show and thats when i Said to myselff

  • Comment removed

  • Fucking love this song!! Gives me a warm feeling inside :)

  • just love it...awww the good old days

  • Thanks Punk. I really appreciate it.

  • In some of my faint childhood memories, I find myself watching Lonely Planet, a particular episode in which Ian Wright travels to Mongolia. And then i don't remember anything.

    But this series had a huge influence on me, since them, its been my hobby to learn more about different places, people and culture!!

    I wish sometimes, Discovery Channel should air this program once again, because so many people love this series!!

  • FAVORITE. TRAVEL. SHOW. EVER.

  • 5 Dislikes? maybe its the people that never dream of traveling around the world..

    I missed this show so much, I am 26 years old and when this show came on I would dream of being there with Ian. At 12 years old I knew about so many culture because of this show. Kind of sad theme thought because I still have not reach my dreams of traveling the world , the way I wanted to when I was 12. GREAT SHOW!!

  • can any one tell me where i can get full shows

    i love them. Am also a fan of Ian

  • @isaakadams try PBS. org  they run on pulic broadcasting... I destest the ones with Ian but like the ladies like Shapiro..

  • @isaakadams I shouldn't be saying this but try pirate bay! and search by typing GLOBE TREKKER!

  • can any one tell me where i can get full shows

  • Dios mio!!! esta cancion me inspira me encanta!!! I LOVE IAN WRIGHT!!! I LOVE LONELY PLANET!!! Life is beautiful

  • I miss this show so much. This show increased my thirst for traveling abroad. I would enjoy the show with my family evey evening after work. Awesome show.

  • best title song ever te be created

  • Yes remembers my schooldays too i used to skip classes to watch this sometimes.

  • one of my fav shows in the childhood...best travelling show ever made...:)

  • This reminds me of my freshman year in my Spanish 1 class in high school.

    We would always watch these. hah

  • We sometimes watched Lonely planet during the Geographic lesson's. And I think that Lonely Planet was a very good program :)

  • Does anyone remember a travel show of the Caribbean islands? It had a british dude, i think, and a funny camera man who interacted with him :/

  • I thing this is the oldest tune that i have in my mind.Spent my entire childhood watching it after my school..Good old memories..it took me to all the places where it was not possible for me to go physically :)

  • I watched this my entire childhood, back when it was called Lonely Planet, had a guy at the beginning creating a circle around him with a stick in the sand, and aired on the only Discovery Channel there was, back when they aired other shows than someone overhauling a crappy car or building motorbikes. I remember Ian and Megan and how much we all loved to see them travel everywhere and we'd listen to this music while watching the scenery from the bus or car in almost kind of old style film...

  • @MichaelCaplin You are just like me. I am 25 now, but I started watching this when I was 13. This sparked my own interest for traveling. Hopefully, when I get some money, I can travel the whole world.

  • @MichaelCaplin used to be on Channel 4 if i remember correctly too!! But what happend to it? I think the "Lonely Planet" Publication was bought by someone else wasn't it?

  • Thats it it was bought by Globe Trekker

  • @MichaelCaplin You couldn't have summarized any better the emotions and moments this music and series brings back :)

  • @MichaelCaplin It's still on, i am wathing it right now on Travel Channel, it's called Globe Trekker.

  • well im back and what a great hike!

  • Megan McCormick forever!

  • Im heading to Isle Royale the most secluded national park in the usa and im living out of a back pack for 9 days. Im gonna put this song on my ipod and listen to it while i hike 23 miles!

  • I miss this show.... Its never on where I live anymore... Haven't seen it in years!

  • Isn't there a newer version of this song? I was looking at Globe Trekker and the intro sounded slightly different.

  • the music is awesome.whenever i feel drowsy i used to hear this music which makes me refresh ..i miss lonely planet,,,ian...justiin...if they retelecast this program i may be the first to switch on the the channel...

  • Hey sorry if you need to use the replay button...I'm pretty sure I broke it. Awesome song!

  • Warm and fuzzy music! Every time I hear it, it signals something amazing is about to take place, if only through my tv set. Great tune!

    Hello to all the fellow Globe Trekker fans around the world.

  • With whatever title they choose...yes, I must agree, this IS...hands down...THE best travel show out there. I'm now looking at purchasing some of the DVD sets, I like it so much. Cheers all!!

  • I love this show and this theme so much. I would love to be a Globe Trekker host, It would be the most incredible and live enriching job to have.

  • When i listen to this song i feel like packing my bag and travel around the world.

  • WHO WOULD DISLIKE THIS SONG fuck you haters

  • I'm 52 this week I have seen most of the world in my life it's a beautiful world & this music is world life. Why are people fighting? If we actually looked after one another and even exchanged places we would all see how the other half lived but it ain't gonna happen because the MEN with the money and their familes would never allow it! Brilliant music that's my rant you people on here I respect.

  • AWSOME!!!!!!!! touches me

  • Merci beaucoup.

  • I have to agree, Ian Wright is the best! I even got to meet him in person when he did a speaking engagement at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. He's every bit the character in person as he is on Globe Trekker/Lonely Planet.

  • too lazy to post pics... sheezz

  • Ian Wright I think is THE GUY for the show. Enjoy watching him, from eating all the crap to doing bungee...Who doesn 't wish to be in his position?...

  • Pretty much my favorite show on television. Awesome.

  • Ahhhh does anyone remember when this show used to be called Lonely Planet? Those were the days!!

  • @amm964 I remember seeing it as a kid coming back from school and having my lunch ! Love this show

  • @nikhilgotmail i know! i'm so glad it still exists...with mostly the same hosts :)

  • @amm964 yeah pretty much. this program makes lifestyles...its a way of living..

  • @amm964 I remeber I use to watch it as a kid back then there was only one discovery channel

  • Comment removed

  • I still call it Lonely Planet !

  • @amm964...I remember it...Ian Wright was/is still my hero...its my only life dream...

  • ian is my favorite globe trekker

  • Ian, Ian, Ian, Ian!

  • Best theme tune ever

  • @yoshisuniverse I love lonely planaet aka globe treeker and its musiccc !

  • ian megan asha are my favorites and whats her name who was in the october festivals episode can ne one tell me her name

  • @loveisnotforme Think it was Justine Shapiro...

  • @Pinter333 thank you

  • Justine!!!!!

  • Ian Wright so funny, short and looks like a school boy travelling around the world. He's my favorite!!!!!

  • @miStiKredum

    You're totally right. Any chance I get...Hopefully the career I'll have will take me to many places far and wide, but that allows me to relax and enjoy the beauty of other places, not just "rush rush & go!"

  • @miStiKredum I too know exactly how you feel. It is a feeling I have felt all my life. And here I am 51 years old and havent done much of anything. Although I am a single guy, I have family members that depend on me financially and emotionally to just stay put where I am. Get up every day to a job I hate. Not go on vacations because of the cost and workload just piles up. And people wonder why I often get drunk. Its to escape.

  • Chicken Gumbo likes this! It gives you the feeling of something unexpected, you know what is around the next corner? I have been all over the world, traveled almost 190,000 miles last year alone, it is a beautiful planet with beautiful people.

  • Globe Trekker is one of my favorite travel shows as well. I'm going to be on Globe Trekker one day, one day soon. I know it. I can feel it!

  • @miStiKredum

    I know exactly what you mean! I feel the exact same way. That's what I think about all the time. My desire to see the world...if I don't I feel like I'm going to bust!! I get this overwhelming feeling of joy when I think of traveling and sometimes sadness because I haven't been to many places as I would like to. I want to spread my wings and be free...and fly! :)

  • this song gives me goose bumps, as it reminds me of all the awsome places i have traveled to. i feel sorry for people with no desire to see the world and travel, get out of your shoe box , open up your eyes, the world is an amazing place. Tom Wallace Australia

  • so good

  • Ian Wright was the craziest awesomest host to ever grace this greatest of travel shows.

  • Greatest travel show ever. Ian White was the craziest host to ever grace TV.

  • @honey88foru

    Definitely!

  • ANyone know the composer or name of this song?

  • @rrusilowicz Ian Ritchie is the composer--Lonely Planet Theme

  • what a beautiful song

  • one of the best shows Discovery Channel has given it's viewers

  • 經典中的經典!

  • who is the composer?

    your music is unbelievable

  • Meh not that good.

  • Great music theme - great glob trekkers - Ian & Megan

  • JUSTINE SHAPIRO is my favorite all time travel host on any travel show.

  • I think its funny how people can even find something to argue about in the comments for this video.

  • Does anybody know the song of the '' Cuba and Haiti '' spot ?

  • @Remorselesslymine ... Lol I don't even know why u think I am bigoted towards whites for I consider all humans !!!

    You seem to have shit in ya head

  • it sounds amazing through headphones!

    

  • I realized I'd not continue my arguments with a person who has hate filled in their hearts !!!

  • @Remorselesslymine Oh, really...then can you explain why for nearly 100 years the Klan lynched black people if all the violence was supposedly perpetrated by Black people? :(

  • @belladeballe...Its no use talking to someone who has ignorance and hate filled in them...Backpacking and Globe trekker has nothing to do with racism...its more of exploring and appreciating other cultures and other religions to everything so different and unique...

  • @Remorselesslymine

    This is not the place to be promoting your racism! And by the way you are very hypocritical, a lot of people on that forum advocate violence towards Black people!

  • @xtrashed -...Its no use talking to someone who has ignorance and hate filled in them...Backpacking and Globe trekker has nothing to do with racism...its more of exploring and appreciating other cultures and other religions to everything so different and unique...

  • Megan McCormick--fantastic!

  • nightwind928 i likes your comment...

  • @Remorselesslymine...Like hatred???

  • @ Dot350 ,,I can't agree more..^:^,,,,, The saxophone will make you cry,,,Everyone should check out "GlobeTrekker Theme II" as well as "Saigon" and all the rest .... I just can't get eough of this soul "cleansing" music:)!!!!

  • @Remorselesslymine ... Travellers don't need to go to Stormfront !!! Plain and simple...

  • It speaks how great this song and series is when there are NO dislikes among nearly 48,000 views, amazing.

  • Only this song makes me want to leave everything behind and find myself in... well, who knows. My brains keep saying: "No it's not the right time." When is the right time!? Is there a right time!?

  • @wuushwuush... There is no right time...Just like Ian wright says...just pack up and leave...think later

  • This song is having the power to free the spirit and to mix that spirit with every compound of the universe and make it as one

  • This song,,, by Ian Ritchie ,,,,,would give "Mea Culpa" a run for its Money!

  • Hands down the best travel show out there.

  • @Zoidberg312 Do they make new episodes for it or did they stop making new episodes? I really like this show!

    

  • Love Ian and Megan;-)

  • @bughunter200 If you ain't rich; you can't travel around the world. That's why I hate this world ... :D

  • Always makes me feel good about the world.

  • Can someone post the other version of this song(it's the one from the main menu from the globe trekker with las Vegas)???

  • I always make in the sand or dust the classic Globe Trekker circle, dont know why!!

  • @city2325 Is like an adictionxD

  • I believe I am going to use this as my signature tune as well, since I teach geography! ;-)

  • @JohnnyNW ... wow I wish I could teach geography instead of being a techie

  • @urrja ... I wish there was something like that in India so that I can head off...

  • Comment removed
