Destination Truth, Season 1

Josh Gates, an archaeologist and inductee into the prestigious Explorers Club (an organization dedicated to the advancement of exploration and field research), invites viewers on one man’s search for the truth while he investigates stories of the unexplained across the globe. Gates and his small crew of production buddies visit different international destinations alleged to be the home of a notorious cryptozoological mystery, including the Worm Monster of Iceland and the Loch Ness Monster-like creature lurking in a Japanese lake. Gates searches for evidence to prove or debunk these stories by talking to witnesses and experts and immersing himself in the local culture.
