Critics' reviews

"The set-up for each episode gets less and less intriguing as this promising travel show unfolds (...) Eugene Levy isn't just trying to skim over the 'pages' of the world but to truly understand them"

Brian Tallerico: rogerebert.com
"'The Reluctant Traveler' has similar beats to other reality shows of this nature, but Eugene Levy’s personality makes it worth watching. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"

Ricky Valero: Ready Steady Cut
"Eugene Levy might have reluctantly traveled to these places, but the viewer will happily go along for the ride."

Emily Bernard: Collider
"Eugene Levy is the best. His new show is not."

Todd Lazarski: AV Club
"A refreshingly simple series that goes down easy (...) 'The Reluctant Traveler' is designed to capitalize on its host’s posh personality, sending Levy off into splendid spots across the globe to venture into new cultures"

Coleman Spilde: The Daily Beast
"It’s a beautifully photographed, lightly comedic and actually quite informative slice of comfort viewing, succeeding largely because of the charms of our tour guide: (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"

Richard Roeper: Chicago Sun-Times
"Eugene Levy makes a charming and easygoing host and narrator (...) [It] does connect with people who are less inclined to be adventurous than the average travel show host"
