Xtreme Tourist Experiences The Adrenaline Rush Of Belize

A crew representing Fish Production Studio, in partnership with American Express, visited Belize from July 9th-July 13th, 2009 to film an episode of their adventure-based travel show called "Xtreme Tourist."

Xtreme Tourist is a half-hour, high energy, reality show that focuses on "off the beaten path adventures" at great vacation destinations around the world. Hosted by Ernie Harker, the host encourages viewers to take frequent vacations to stay vibrant and productive in a busy, high-pressure world. He travels to various destinations with a crew of experienced outdoor film makers to provide an adventurer's point of view on culture, cuisine, and accommodations in the world's greatest vacation destinations. Filming documentary style allows the team to capture Ernie's raw reactions to the local customs, hot nightlife, and exclusive adventures available only through an experienced travel guide.

The Xtreme Tourist Belize episode is scheduled to air twice between October 3, 2009 and April 3, 2010 on independent and affiliated television stations across the United States with an expected reach of approximately 56 million households. The episodes can also be viewed on the xtreme-tourist.tv website where links to the business sites will be available.
