RICK STEVES at Balboa Theatre

Guidebook author and travel TV host RICK STEVES is returning to San Diego for a special event just for KPBS supporters. He will present an interactive lecture about “European Travel Skills” at the historic Balboa Theatre.

Rick will talk about what’s new in the great cities of Europe and share some of his secret finds. He will discuss these hidden gems and give lots of valuable advice so you can plan your next European adventure.

Rick advocates smart, affordable, perspective-broadening travel. As host and writer of the popular public television series RICK STEVES’ EUROPE, and best-selling author of 40 European travel books, he encourages Americans to travel as “temporary locals.” He helps American travelers connect much more intimately and authentically with Europe — and Europeans — for a fraction of what mainstream tourists pay.

“Rick Steves’ Europe” is public television’s most-watched, longest-running travel series. Written and hosted by the best-selling guidebook author, each half-hour show takes viewers to Europe’s most interesting places, from great cities to off-the-beaten-path discoveries. ”Rick Steves’ Europe” has become synonymous with fun, engaging, perspective-broadening travel.
