Susan Calman kicks off her new series with a quick flight from Dublin to New York. With just a few hours to spare before she boards her cruise, Susan decides that the quickest way to see the city that never sleeps is from the air — on a spectacular helicopter ride. She then takes a tour of her new home on board ship before setting sail for Newport, Rhode Island, where she swaps the ship for a slightly smaller craft, as she learns what it takes to steer an America's Cup yacht around the bay. Then, it's on to Boston and a trolleybus tour of the city — including popping into the bar where everybody knows your name and says ‘Cheers!'. Finally, in the home of the famous Boston Red Sox, she rounds off the day with a baseball lesson.

The presenter takes an early morning flight from Edinburgh to Dubrovnik, before boarding a cruise ship. Susan meets some new mates, who join her as they disembark in Crete for a tour around the beautiful old town and harbour of Chania. In Athens, Susan takes a look round the Acropolis, and later enjoys a day at the beach in Corfu.
