I would be very surprised to find anyone that is seriously interested in travel who hasn't heard of Rick Steves. For over a decade his videos have offered viewers common sense travel tips, suggestions for destinations that snobby tourists might consider too popular for their own good (there's a reason why 4 million people visit the Colosseum each year), and unique lesser-known side trips.
Usually you can find his series broadcast on your local PBS station (especially during fund drives), at public libraries, and rental stores. A few months ago I stumbled upon this YouTube channel. Where there were only a few complete episodes there are now about a dozen.
If anything, I recommend that newbies (or oldies trying to find ways to avoid airline baggage fees) check out his packing tips: "Have you ever met anyone who after five trips brags 'Every year I pack heavier'?"
