Upcoming episodes, programme details and where to watch over the next seven days. All times are UK time.
Rick Stein travels down the Californian coastline immortalised by John Steinbeck, past citrus groves and vineyards that inspired one of his favourite films, and into LA.
Rick enjoys a hearty steak-and-eggs American diner special before heading across the reputedly busiest border crossing in the world - San Diego to Tijuana.
Leaving the Baja Peninsula, Rick explores Mexico's western mainland and visits the town that put tequila - and the country itself - on the world map: Guadalajara.
Rick visits Mexico City to sample the Aztec cuisine, and then heads to the city of Puebla, which is the home of Mexico's famous meat stew mole.
Rick explores the hidden land of Mexico's culinary capital Oaxaca, where you can smell the tropical fruit and Mexico's national cheese of queso oaxacana.
Rick's journey begins to draw to a close as he heads east from Oaxaca to the Yucatan Peninsula, a place once frequented by real pirates of the Caribbean and our own Sir Francis Drake.
