But that’s all changing now that a certain movie has put it right on the international tourist map… we’re talking nine busloads of tourists a week! …What do the locals think about all this new attention, well let’s just say… they’re not exactly Over The Moon. (15)

But it definitely pays to know how the haggling system works, so we've enlisted some experts to take us on a tour. (20)

Whoa. That's a lot of food to eat. But somebody has to do it. After a week of all that indulgence, perhaps its time for something a bit more spartan... Let's head to a village in Greece where you'll find the food and lodgings to be a little bit more modest... (15)

In case you were wondering, Peter actually spent another hour sitting on that donkey waiting for it to move. Maybe it just doesn't understand English. Now if you've ever had problems communicating in another country, we may have just the thing... An electronic translator that - wait for it - it actually works! Check this out. (15)
