About GORDAN RAMSAY: UNCHARTED — Gordon Ramsay embarks on exhilarating missions around the globe to unearth world cultures through food and adventure in National Geographic’s new six-part series GORDON RAMSAY: UNCHARTED. The multi-Michelin-star chef and Ironman athlete meets with indigenous people and local food legends to explore cultures, customs and flavors unique to each location. He’ll serve up a taste of adventure as he braves Hawaii’s crashing surf, treks a snow-capped mountain in Alaska, rappels down a waterfall in Morocco, fishes in a raging river in Laos, dives through New Zealand’s shark infested waters and hunts off a cliff ledge in Peru. For him, food is the gateway to culture and every adventure is a portal into the soul of a people and a destination. GORDON RAMSAY: UNCHARTED airs Sundays at 10/9c on National Geographic.
