The Daytripper

The Daytripper is a 5-time Lone Star Emmy Award winning travel show airing on PBS and hosted by Chet Garner. "The Daytripper" highlights the culture, outdoors and food of a single tourist destination or area.

The series first aired on Austin's PBS station, KLRU,[1] and was titled "The Austin Daytripper." However, the concept expanded and the show condensed its name to "The Daytripper" to have a wider appeal.

The Daytripper has aired seven seasons. Episodes are broadcast on PBS affiliate stations in Texas and are also available for viewing online.[2]
