About this programme

1/6. Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May embark on a road trip, trying to follow the path of the Three Wise Men across the Middle East. However, they opt to do so in open-top sports cars that were built for significantly less demanding tasks than driving along the conflict-ridden mountains of southern Turkey, through war-ravaged Iraq and across the searing deserts of Syria. The trio also try to find out what myrrh is and where it can be bought.
