Discover the perfect summer vacation – new at Kabel Eins!
HolidayCheck, title sponsor of the new TV series “Summer, Sun, Carefree – the HolidayCheck”, will go on air on May 25, 2025. This exciting series will be broadcast on Kabel Eins on four Sundays at 7:15 p.m. The episodes will also be available on the streaming platform Joyn from May 25th. The first broadcasts will take place on May 25th, June 1st, June 15th and June 22nd, as Colorful reported.
The show presents popular travel destinations that promise carefree vacations. Viewers can look forward to practical travel tips and inspiring insights into various holiday regions. Topics in the first episodes include a family vacation in Tenerife, adventure trips to Crete, men's vacations in Egypt and girlfriend trips to Turkey. HolidayCheck experts bring their travel expertise, recommendations and authentic reviews to the show.
Experts and testers
In addition to the technical support, the show is enriched by Matthias Mangiapane and his husband Hubert as “celebrity testers”. Together they test hotels, leisure activities, culinary experiences and on-site service. The travel experts comment on the travelers' experiences and give the program an authentic touch. Stephanie Weigand from HolidayCheck highlights the importance of authentic reviews, which play a central role throughout the series.
The production is realized by BurdaStudios and is in cooperation with Seven.One AdFactory. Tom Schwarz from Seven.One emphasizes the connection between entertainment and inspiration, as expressed in this program. The collaboration aims to create a cross-media brand presence that effectively supports both the HolidayCheck brand and the new travel formats.
Destinations all year round
The exoticness of the Dominican Republic, Mexico and Thailand beckons with pleasantly temperate beaches in January. For winter sports enthusiasts, we recommend ski holiday resorts in Austria, Switzerland or Italy, which offer numerous opportunities during this time. The HolidayCheck series not only covers summer travel destinations, but also offers a year-round overview of the best vacation options.
