After months of quarantine, people around the world are nodding their heads to four powerful words: We need a vacation.

Launching just in time to re-inspire travel, today, July 10, the Netflix series “Down to Earth with Zac Efron” premieres globally. The show chronicles Zac and his friend Darrin traveling the world in pursuit of unique experiences tied to food, wellness and sustainability – with Hilton as the Official Hotel Sponsor. Throughout their journeys, they visit five different Hilton Hotels & Resorts properties across five countries in some of the most sought-after destinations.

For inspiration sorted by episode and location and a formal “Down to Earth with Zac Efron” travel guide, check out the following slideshow and information below:

  • Once the beekeeping suit comes off, guests can enjoy a meal, dessert and cocktail at the hotel’s Bridges Bar with honey from the hive. Plus, feel good knowing that any excess edible food will be donated to New Yorkers in need as part of Hilton’s food donation initiative.
