GreatGoodWatch scoreSummary
The program follows four modern day explorers-a navigator, a wildlife expert, a survivalist, and a journalist-as they substantially retrace H.M. Stanley's famed expedition to find Dr. David Livingstone. Their route deviates somewhat from Stanley's in that it includes a treacherous crossing of the Uluguru Mountains, which Stanley circumvented.
