The Travel Channel has been around since 1987 and is owned by Scripps Networks Interactive. Most people working for the channel love to travel but the channel itself rarely moves beyond US borders. Headquartered in Maryland, the channel features reality shows, documentaries, and various how-to type programs. As mentioned above most of the programs are centered around the United States so you’ll see few shows about the best surfs in Hawaii. But over the years the channel has thrown in shows about animal safaris in Africa, tours of grand hotels, and various resorts. We like programs featuring paranormal encounters in historic buildings, and interestingly those are some of the most highly rated ones too. As of 2015, the Travel Channel is available in 91.5 million households in the US which are 78.6% of homes that have a television.
