0:00:02 > 0:00:06It's 50 years old this year and showing no signs of slowing down. On this week's Travel Show,
0:00:06 > 0:00:08we say happy birthday to Japan's high-speed Shinkansen.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33Coming up on the programme -
0:00:33 > 0:00:36I am racing against the clock on one of Tokyo's bullet trains.
0:00:36 > 0:00:40I'm sure I'm taking a lot more than three minutes!
0:00:40 > 0:00:44Ade hitches a lift back in time to find out what people in York
0:00:44 > 0:00:47think of the city's new signature scent.
0:00:47 > 0:00:48Can I say it out loud?
0:00:50 > 0:00:51And global guru Simon Calder
0:00:51 > 0:00:56has top tips for getting the best rate when you exchange currency.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59And we have got the story of one traveller who got a bit too
0:00:59 > 0:01:02close for comfort to one of Australia's crocs.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10Hello and welcome to the Travel Show,
0:01:10 > 0:01:12coming to you this week from Tokyo.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16Well, this is the city's vast Central Station where every day,
0:01:16 > 0:01:21roughly 500,000 commuters begin and end their journey.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24It is also where, back in 1964,
0:01:24 > 0:01:28a record-breaking high-speed revolution began.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33It was the year of the Tokyo Olympics
0:01:33 > 0:01:37and Japan was the first country in the world to build dedicated
0:01:37 > 0:01:39railway lines for high-speed travel.
0:01:41 > 0:01:42Nicknamed the "bullet train",
0:01:42 > 0:01:47the Tokaido Shinkansen wowed the world with its speed and efficiency,
0:01:47 > 0:01:51cutting the journey time from Tokyo to Osaka by roughly one third.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56Today's Shinkansen network carries more than 150 million passengers
0:01:56 > 0:02:01a year, making it one of the world's busiest high-speed rail lines.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05The entire network is now operated by four Japan Railways Group companies,
0:02:05 > 0:02:09spanning almost 2,500km of track,
0:02:09 > 0:02:15with a maximum speed reaching 320km per hour.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18And whether you are a railway buff or a wide-eyed child,
0:02:18 > 0:02:20you can't help but be in awe.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55And what's truly amazing is that over its 50-year history,
0:02:55 > 0:02:58carrying more than ten billion commuters and tourists,
0:02:58 > 0:03:02there has not been one passenger fatality due to derailments
0:03:02 > 0:03:07or collisions, despite frequent earthquakes and typhoons.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10So, what's the secret to maintaining safety?
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Apparently, it's the people.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35If you stand on the platform,
0:03:35 > 0:03:37you will see these tireless rail employees
0:03:37 > 0:03:40working with almost military precision.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42From immaculately dressed conductors,
0:03:42 > 0:03:44right down to these worker-bee cleaning crews.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49Each day, a total of 336 bullet trains pull in
0:03:49 > 0:03:54and depart from this station with average intervals of three minutes.
0:03:54 > 0:04:00Each team of 55 cleaners works on around 120 trains a day.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02As well as cleaning away rubbish,
0:04:02 > 0:04:06they have got to turn roughly 100 seats to a forward-facing direction.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Wipe down tabletops, brush off the seats
0:04:08 > 0:04:10and replace the white covers on the seat backs.
0:04:10 > 0:04:15All done in less than ten minutes. Sometimes, in as little as seven.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19It's amazing how quickly these cleaners work,
0:04:19 > 0:04:21but it's not just about cleaning.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24If they take longer than their allotted time,
0:04:24 > 0:04:25this train could be late.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29And believe me, that is not an option here in Japan.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32The Shinkansen's average delay from schedule,
0:04:32 > 0:04:35if you could call it that, was just 0.06 minutes last year.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53It is an impressive record and it's a challenge I'm keen to take up.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58So, the staff here have agreed to let me be a cleaner for the day.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Let's see if I make the grade.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04At the Shinkansen training centre,
0:05:04 > 0:05:06I'm shown how it's done in this mock cabin.
0:05:06 > 0:05:1025 seats in less than three minutes.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13So, this is the start of my training
0:05:13 > 0:05:16and this lady is going to teach me all about cleaning a Shinkansen.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Let's start by putting on some gloves.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21- Konichiwa.- Konichiwa.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23SHE SPEAKS JAPANESE
0:05:23 > 0:05:26So, when the train arrives, we must bow.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29SPEAKS JAPANESE
0:05:29 > 0:05:33I can't change the order. Must do right to left. Hai, hai. OK.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Got to do it with flair, like this!
0:05:36 > 0:05:39How am I going for time?
0:05:40 > 0:05:42- Hai. I can't pat it?- No.- No.
0:05:44 > 0:05:50Right. Now, this is not any ordinary brush. This brush detects moisture.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Moisture on seats. OK.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55- So if the light goes off, like that... - BEEP
0:05:55 > 0:05:57you have to replace the seat.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Oh, I have got to start this end...
0:06:00 > 0:06:03Wrong end. OK, start here.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08One, two, three, four, five, six...
0:06:08 > 0:06:12This is such a process but I think I'm getting into the rhythm of it.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17I'm sure I'm taking a lot longer than three minutes!
0:06:18 > 0:06:20SPEAKS JAPANESE
0:06:20 > 0:06:24Oh, six minutes! Almost six minutes. Oh, dear. OK.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28It's probably a good thing I didn't make the cut.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31I'm told it can take up to three years of training
0:06:31 > 0:06:34to fully master the cleaning process.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37And hundreds more cleaners will need to be trained to make sure
0:06:37 > 0:06:41Japan's rapidly expanding rail network is maintained.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44There are several new Shinkansen lines planned for the next
0:06:44 > 0:06:50couple of years and construction on a super-speed Maglev train line begins this year.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54It will be capable of speeds topping 580km per hour.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Well, of course, in addition to the Shinkansen,
0:06:59 > 0:07:03there are plenty more iconic train trips to take around the world.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07So, here is the Travel Show rundown of some of our favourites.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11If you prefer journeys slow and scenic,
0:07:11 > 0:07:15head to Switzerland for a ride on the Glacier Express.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Snaking through the Alps at an average speed of 39km per hour.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21That is just 25mph.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25This train has earned itself a reputation as the slowest
0:07:25 > 0:07:28express train in the world.
0:07:28 > 0:07:32The full journey from St Moritz to Zermatt last seven and a half hours.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36Trains depart up to four times a day in the summer.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40Spanning two continents, eight time zones and more than 9,000km,
0:07:40 > 0:07:42or 6,000 miles,
0:07:42 > 0:07:47the Trans-Siberian Railway is the longest railroad in the world.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49It takes seven days to cover the distance between Moscow
0:07:49 > 0:07:53and Vladivostok, where Russia meets the Pacific Ocean.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55If you want to stop along the way,
0:07:55 > 0:07:57you have to purchase separate tickets
0:07:57 > 0:07:59for each leg of your journey.
0:07:59 > 0:08:00To see South Africa in style,
0:08:00 > 0:08:04take the Blue Train from Cape Town to Victoria.
0:08:04 > 0:08:05The route passes river valleys
0:08:05 > 0:08:09and vast plains and a personal butler service is available
0:08:09 > 0:08:11throughout the 27-hour journey.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14Of course, a trip on this luxury locomotive isn't cheap.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16If you would rather save the cash,
0:08:16 > 0:08:19there are also long-distance passenger trains that
0:08:19 > 0:08:23operate along much the same route for a fraction of the price.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25For a journey back in time,
0:08:25 > 0:08:28try the heritage steam trains of northern England.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32The North Yorkshire Moors Railway is an 18-mile track, or 30km,
0:08:32 > 0:08:36from the market town of Pickering to the village of Grosmont.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39It has been featured in several films and on television,
0:08:39 > 0:08:43including Harry Potter movies and the Sherlock Holmes series.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Next up, more of your animated travel tales.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51This one is from Sheena Parsfield in Andorra.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Taking a break from life in high-octane Hong Kong,
0:09:01 > 0:09:05my husband and I ventured to the Northern Territory of Australia for a couple of weeks.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07No-one can visit the Northern Territory without
0:09:07 > 0:09:11hearing about all the horrible nasty beasties which appear
0:09:11 > 0:09:13to lurk in every dark corner or patch of water.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16But the most fearsome are the crocs,
0:09:16 > 0:09:19a creature left over from the dinosaurs.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23It hides, it swims, it stalks, it jumps, it kills people!
0:09:23 > 0:09:27Everyone we talked to said it is imperative to stay well away
0:09:27 > 0:09:29from the water's edge.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32We decided to try our hand at a remote four-wheel-drive track
0:09:32 > 0:09:35across the Outback, looking for a bit of an adventure.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39Eventually, the track brought us to a narrow river, with quite steep banks.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42The crossing point was a shallow billabong surrounded by gum trees.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46Instead of stopping the car to discuss our next move,
0:09:46 > 0:09:49my husband took us at quite a speed into the water.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Which was far deeper than we thought.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55Our little Jeep did not like it one bit. And we stalled.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58Now, we are stuck in the car, miles from anywhere, without any
0:09:58 > 0:10:02form of communication in the middle of a billabong that in all likelihood
0:10:02 > 0:10:06contained a man-eating croc, and who knew how many of his mates!
0:10:07 > 0:10:08Even if we could make a break for it
0:10:08 > 0:10:12and climb into the nearest gum tree, the croc could jump.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16This was scary. Maybe even life-threatening.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20After sitting in the car for a while contemplating death-by-croc
0:10:20 > 0:10:24or dehydration, we decided to have another go at trying to get out.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29We turned the key and waited. Turned the key, waited.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32Finally, thankfully, the Jeep started.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35We revved the car back and forth, finally getting some grip
0:10:35 > 0:10:37and exited the billabong at top speed,
0:10:37 > 0:10:41totally soaked by the spray and covered in clouds of red dust.
0:10:41 > 0:10:46For the route home, we decided to stick to well-charted roads.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Returning to our hotel, our appearance understandably got
0:10:49 > 0:10:51a few funny looks from the other guests.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53We also discovered that the billabong
0:10:53 > 0:10:56had claimed one victim from our adventure - our Jeep's numberplate.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07And now for your weekly travel update.
0:11:07 > 0:11:08Getting a new UK passport
0:11:08 > 0:11:12seems to be taking longer than usual for many travellers.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16As the holidays approach, MPs have voiced concerns that delays
0:11:16 > 0:11:19could cause people to miss out on their summer plans.
0:11:19 > 0:11:23The Passport Office says demand is at a 12-year high, although
0:11:23 > 0:11:26it denies that there is a backlog in processing the applications.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31We've all heard with a heavy heart that the weight of love this week
0:11:31 > 0:11:35proved a bit too much for one of Paris's famous bridges.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38A section of railing on the world-famous Pont des Arts
0:11:38 > 0:11:40collapsed under the weight of the love locks
0:11:40 > 0:11:43left by tourists to the city of love.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Couples write their initials on the padlocks
0:11:46 > 0:11:49and throw the key into the river below as a sign of everlasting love.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53But campaigners are now calling for the practice to be ended.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58European travellers faced transport chaos this week
0:11:58 > 0:12:02as taxi strikes brought disruption to several major cities.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Cabbies in cities including Madrid, London and Berlin went on strike
0:12:05 > 0:12:08and blocked roads, causing severe delays.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11# No surrender... #
0:12:11 > 0:12:14They were protesting against what they regard
0:12:14 > 0:12:17as a lack of regulation of rival mobile service Uber.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22And finally, if you are in Brazil for the World Cup, you will be
0:12:22 > 0:12:25pleased to know that the Metro is now running again in Sao Paulo
0:12:25 > 0:12:29following a two-day strike on the eve of the event earlier this week.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33Strike threats from transport workers in cities around the country
0:12:33 > 0:12:36have caused concern about whether Brazil's airports and bus systems
0:12:36 > 0:12:39will be able to handle the influx of tourists.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Still to come here on the Travel Show,
0:12:45 > 0:12:50we find out what fruity Viking aroma is making Ade's face do this.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52So don't go away.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Welcome to the slice of the show where you set the agenda
0:13:08 > 0:13:10and I try to unravel travel.
0:13:10 > 0:13:15First, Richard from Hertfordshire tweeted with a simple question...
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Richard, Spain's southern islands
0:13:23 > 0:13:26comprise ideal territory for a young family.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30The flight time from your local airports, Luton and Stansted,
0:13:30 > 0:13:31is just four hours
0:13:31 > 0:13:35and even the budget properties in the Canaries offer good, safe standards.
0:13:35 > 0:13:40For price, choose a cheap package to Playa de Las Americus in Tenerife
0:13:40 > 0:13:43which also has the most diversity to offer
0:13:43 > 0:13:46if you're keen to explore an island in a rental car.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48But if you simply want rest,
0:13:48 > 0:13:51head for the quieter island of Lanzarote.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53The resort of Puerto Del Carmen
0:13:53 > 0:13:56is close to, but not too near, the island's airport
0:13:56 > 0:14:01with a low-key ambience and plenty of places to eat and drink.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03In terms of timing, avoid July and August
0:14:03 > 0:14:06when high prices coincide with high temperatures.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09September onwards is perfect.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Next, Owain Jenkin from Sussex is off to Dubrovnik in Croatia.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25The worst strategy would be to convert the dollars into sterling
0:14:25 > 0:14:29and then into the Croatian currency, the kuna.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31You'd lose two margins on the transaction.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35So wait until you get to Croatia which has flourishing competition
0:14:35 > 0:14:36between bureaux de change.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Just shop around for the best rate when you arrive.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43But if you're planning to revisit America any time soon
0:14:43 > 0:14:44and you have a cash cushion,
0:14:44 > 0:14:47you could be better off changing sterling for kuna
0:14:47 > 0:14:51and keeping the dollars for your next American adventure.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55Talking of American adventures, Julian Burnell has a sorry tale
0:14:55 > 0:14:58we hear far too often on the BBC Travel Show.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Sadly, no.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12But hopefully this incident will remind viewers not to be taken in.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16Most visitors to the US need to apply online
0:15:16 > 0:15:20through Electronic System for Travel Authorization, ESTA for short.
0:15:20 > 0:15:25The fee is 14, but if you tap something like "Esta application"
0:15:25 > 0:15:28into a search engine, at the top of the list you'll see
0:15:28 > 0:15:30a couple of websites run by commercial firms
0:15:30 > 0:15:32that charge more than this,
0:15:32 > 0:15:35in your daughter's case ten times as much.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38These companies' conditions are tightly written
0:15:38 > 0:15:41and she will have agreed, perhaps inadvertently,
0:15:41 > 0:15:43to pay for an application service,
0:15:43 > 0:15:46so it's unlikely any claim for a refund would succeed.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50So, the official site you need is...
0:15:53 > 0:15:57Carol App tweeted @bbctravelshow to say...
0:16:02 > 0:16:06I'd never recommend collecting fake border crossing stamps in a passport,
0:16:06 > 0:16:10even for a country like the German Democratic Republic
0:16:10 > 0:16:12that ceased to exist 25 years ago.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16The genuine articles can cause plenty of problems as it is.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19I've been thrown out of Honduras because my passport
0:16:19 > 0:16:21contained a Cuban stamp.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25Apparent evidence of travel to some sensitive destinations
0:16:25 > 0:16:29can increase the curiosity of immigration officials
0:16:29 > 0:16:31in various parts of the world,
0:16:31 > 0:16:34but I contacted the Department of Immigration and Border Protection
0:16:34 > 0:16:38in Canberra on your behalf, and I was told...
0:16:50 > 0:16:53That's all for now, but if you've got a travel question
0:16:53 > 0:16:56I'm here to help. Just e-mail and I'll do my very best
0:16:56 > 0:16:58to find you an answer.
0:16:58 > 0:17:03From me, Simon Calder, the Global Guru, bye for now. See you next time.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10Right, you might need a peg on your nose for our last film this week,
0:17:10 > 0:17:14because, in England, one northern city is trying to attract us there
0:17:14 > 0:17:18to smell what it thinks is its unique aroma.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20If you're thinking flowers and perfume,
0:17:20 > 0:17:24then I'm afraid you're barking up the wrong tree entirely.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28Ade's been trying out York's new smelly guidebook.
0:17:32 > 0:17:36Now, it's short on actual information,
0:17:36 > 0:17:40but this guidebook has one little trick up its sleeve - it smells.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Now, you might think it's a little bit gimmicky,
0:17:43 > 0:17:46but this city has some pretty distinctive stinks.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Lavender.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Chocolate. Freshly cut grass.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57These are all the things the tourist board reckons
0:17:57 > 0:17:59tell the story of York.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01All very nice,
0:18:01 > 0:18:04but turn to the back of the book
0:18:04 > 0:18:07and there, you'll encounter the smell of ghosts.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09This, they say,
0:18:09 > 0:18:12is the most haunted city in the world,
0:18:12 > 0:18:15and this man's made a living by scaring the wits out of tourists
0:18:15 > 0:18:17on his nightly walks.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21He was asked to provide a spectral smell.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24- Ooh.- Take a good smell.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27- It's something from the past, isn't it?- Yes, it's old.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29It's an old-y smell.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33It's a bit sooty, sulphur and there's a kind of a nice perfume as well
0:18:33 > 0:18:35- sometimes. - Do all ghosts smell the same?
0:18:35 > 0:18:37No, no.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40There's different people have different experiences,
0:18:40 > 0:18:44- but that's a kind of... - That's a general ghost smell?- Yeah.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47- Roses, a little tint of.- Ah!- Yeah.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50How do you know what a ghost smells like?
0:18:50 > 0:18:53I ask people. When they've had that experience,
0:18:53 > 0:18:57I ask them, and sometimes they can't remember,
0:18:57 > 0:19:00but now they do think,
0:19:00 > 0:19:03"Oh, yeah, sometimes I got the scent of tobacco,
0:19:03 > 0:19:06"sometimes I got a scent of perfume."
0:19:06 > 0:19:08This isn't exactly new.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12For exactly 30 years, the Jorvik Museum has been revolting tourists
0:19:12 > 0:19:16and school trips with fruity aromas Vikings might've made
0:19:16 > 0:19:19when they settled here in the 9th century.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21By the way, just to be absolutely clear,
0:19:21 > 0:19:24those smells aren't always nice.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27So, how do you know how the Vikings smell?
0:19:27 > 0:19:30On this ride you get to smell all the different components.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34You get to know the market smells, the rubbish on the floor smells.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37Then if you combine those with the cooking smells and the
0:19:37 > 0:19:40production smells of making tools and iron smelting and wood smoke,
0:19:40 > 0:19:44and this one we're coming into which is the smell of wild boar cooking,
0:19:44 > 0:19:47you end up with the Jorvik smell because although those smells mingle
0:19:47 > 0:19:49in the room and make that combination.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51This is that meaty smell.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Yes, it is really meaty, because we're in the butcher's at the moment
0:19:53 > 0:19:55and they're cooking wild boar.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59Ruth has, at her fingertips, the means to make pretty much any
0:19:59 > 0:20:03fragrance that you need, including some odours used in the museum that
0:20:03 > 0:20:07I would really rather not put my nose in.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09You need to be careful with this one.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12This is someone sitting on the toilet!
0:20:12 > 0:20:13All right, I'll do it.
0:20:17 > 0:20:18Ohhhhhhhh!
0:20:18 > 0:20:20HE COUGHS
0:20:21 > 0:20:23That is really, really nasty.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27It is nasty, but it is the one that gets all the children talking.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31How does it make you feel to know that you're selling York
0:20:31 > 0:20:32- on bad smells?- I feel it enhances
0:20:32 > 0:20:35the experience and makes people remember.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Smells are linked really powerfully with emotions.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40So, if we smell something while we're listening to something,
0:20:40 > 0:20:43or a piece of music or words, or history,
0:20:43 > 0:20:45we're more likely to remember that.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47In case you want to smell like a real Viking,
0:20:47 > 0:20:49now you've got the chance.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52In this little canister of Norse power,
0:20:52 > 0:20:55they've recreated the smell of old York.
0:20:55 > 0:21:01They've used ingredients such as mead, smoke, sea water, human sweat
0:21:01 > 0:21:04and animal meats amongst other things.
0:21:04 > 0:21:05It is perfect for a night out
0:21:05 > 0:21:08and it is your chance to smell like a real man.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11HE COUGHS
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Yeah(!)
0:21:13 > 0:21:16- What smell comes across to you? - It kind of smells like cow.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23To be fair, it does actually smell like me after I've finished work.
0:21:23 > 0:21:24Seriously?
0:21:24 > 0:21:28After a 13-hour shift in a hot sweaty kitchen, it smells like me.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Ohhhh. That's horrible.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33What's left in a locker or something at the gym.
0:21:33 > 0:21:34That's pretty funky.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Hotels and shops have been using smells to bring
0:21:39 > 0:21:41the money in for years now.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45We think this may be the first time a whole city has tried it.
0:21:45 > 0:21:49It is interesting, but choking back the smell of human sweat
0:21:49 > 0:21:53might not be everyone's idea of an idyllic weekend break.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Ade Adepitan sampling some signature scents in Yorkshire.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04I think I might give that one a miss...
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Thanks for joining us on our travels this week.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Coming up on the programme next week...
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Henry goes back to his Iban tribal roots in Borneo
0:22:14 > 0:22:18to find out if indigenous tourism is a one-sided deal
0:22:18 > 0:22:21or whether it can be of mutual benefit.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24I just realised going around with my uncle
0:22:24 > 0:22:26that food is literally everywhere.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28You just have to know how to get it
0:22:28 > 0:22:32and then know what types of plants you can actually eat.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35He is just a whole book of knowledge.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37I'll catch up with him.
0:22:37 > 0:22:38Join us for that if you can.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41Don't forget you can follow us on our journeys in real-time
0:22:41 > 0:22:45on our social media feeds. The details are on screen now.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47In the meantime, from me, Carmen Roberts
0:22:47 > 0:22:51and the rest of the Travel Show team here in Tokyo, it's goodbye.
