Season 1
Wingin' It is a South African lifestyle and travel series produced by Cheeky Media in which celebrities Janez Vermeiren and Siv Ngesi jet off to exotic foreign cities with no plan, no itinerary and only 48 hours to see, taste and experience the best each far-flung location has to offer.
The series is a fast-paced plunge into the world's most fascinating and eclectic destinations seen through the eyes of two diverse and intrinsically competitive best buddies.
The duo wing it in places like Baku, Ho Chi Minh City, Bogota, La Paz and Kathmandu and reveal the lesser-known side of Istanbul, Bangkok, Tokyo, Mexico City, Havana and Reunion Island.
Siv and Janez pack their bags to find out more about the cultural elements of lands far and wide, feast on an array of delicacies and tackle interesting activities – like getting a good scrub down in a Turkish bath in Istanbul, arm-wrestling with Olympic Champions in Baku, bumping into David Beckham in Bangkok and rubbing shoulders with Sumo giants in Tokyo.
Wingin' It is produced by Cheeky Media and directed by Michael Essey. The script was written by Essey and Matthew Jones. Essey, Jones and Siv Ngesi are producers; the executive producers are Janez Vermeiren and Yusuf Stevens.
