Simon Reeve presents TROPIC OF CANCER on BBC2
Starting at 8.00pm on BBC2 on Sunday 14th March, Simon circles the world following the line that marks the northern border of Earth's tropical region. This epic trip completes Simon's trilogy of journeys exploring the tropics, after his acclaimed series Equator and Tropic of Capricorn, and is his toughest, longest and greatest challenge: a 6x60 min journey following the extraordinary TROPIC OF CANCER.
Simon starts his journey on the paradise beaches of Mexico’s Pacific Coast, and then circumnavigates the planet, heading east across the Caribbean, the Sahara, crossing borders in North Africa closed to foreigners for decades, and then on through the deserts of Arabia and the remote jungles of Asia, to finish in Hawaii. He visits 18 countries, meeting amazing people, witnessing bizarre and beautiful sights, and encountering spectacular and endangered wildlife.
