Rick Steves' Europe

Hi, I’m Rick Steves — and this time, I’m stepping a little off the beaten path (and the boundaries of science...) with a few friends and fellow travelers to explore their new movie, Fountain of Youth, now streaming on Apple TV.

Whether you believe in magic springs or not, this trip could be the adventure of a lifetime — and a reminder that a great way to stay young is to keep on travelin’!
