Now streaming on Peacock, the competition follows Global Travel Collection advisors as they create exclusive, personalized experiences across Belgium for Bozoma “Boz” Saint John and Keely Watson

NEW YORK, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — What does it take to turn a great vacation into an extraordinary one? For two Global Travel Collection (GTC) luxury travel advisors, the answer unfolds on national television as they compete to design unforgettable experiences across Belgium for Bravo personality Bozoma “Boz” Saint John and her fiancé, Keely Watson.

In two episodes of NBC’s 1st Look Presents: Extra Mile Club, now streaming on Peacock, GTC advisors June Kleier and Julie Shotmeyer put their expertise, creativity and insider connections to the test. Their challenge: create a personalized luxury getaway that reflects the couple’s interests and personalities. The prize? The opportunity to win their future travel business.

The competition offers viewers a behind-the-scenes look at what sets a great travel advisor apart. Beyond booking flights and hotels, luxury advisors use their destination knowledge, trusted relationships and understanding of their clients to unlock experiences that can be difficult to discover or arrange independently. From private cultural encounters and exclusive access to thoughtfully curated itineraries, the result is a trip designed around the traveler rather than a standard itinerary.

“Brussels is one of those rare cities where luxury and authenticity meet,” said Kleier. “What I love most is how the city reveals itself through experiences, private tastings with master chocolatiers, behind-the-scenes access to Art Nouveau landmarks, and neighborhoods like Sablon and Marolles that feel wonderfully personal when explored with the right guidance. Brussels rewards curiosity, and that’s where a great advisor makes all the difference.”

June’s approach blends thoughtful storytelling with deep destination knowledge, creating itineraries that feel immersive, elegant and tailored to each traveler’s personality. Julie brings a second-act perspective to luxury travel after a career as a first-grade teacher, pairing meticulous planning with the warmth of someone who treats every trip she designs as if it were her own.

“The places everyone knows are only the beginning,” said Shotmeyer. “A great advisor knows which experiences are really worth your time, where to stay, what to reserve before you arrive and the places you might never find on your own. That insider knowledge is what turns a few days in Belgium into a memorable trip.”

The episodes take viewers across Belgium, including Brussels, where filming took place at Corinthia Brussels, the restored former Grand Hotel Astoria. Along the way, Kleier and Shotmeyer demonstrate how two advisors can approach the same destination in entirely different ways, using their expertise and connections to create experiences tailored to their clients.

While the competition centers on a celebrity couple, the expertise on display extends far beyond the television screen. Whether planning a milestone celebration, a family vacation or a once-in-a-lifetime getaway, a skilled travel advisor can help travelers discover exceptional experiences, navigate the details and make the most of their time away.

“Travel advisors don’t just book trips, they understand their clients and turn that knowledge into experiences that feel completely personal,” said Angie Licea, President of Global Travel Collection. “Watching June and Julie compete gives viewers a glimpse of the expertise that goes into creating an exceptional trip.”

Both episodes of 1st Look Presents: Extra Mile Club are now streaming on Peacock. Full episodes are also available to watch on YouTube on the @1stlooktv channel.
