Raw and forgotten locations, only accessible to true adventurers. They look for the stories behind these mysterious places, which sometimes reveal a shocking history.

For Road Trippers VIPS, three teams of Dutch celebrities are dropped off in a remote Thai village. They receive a small allowance, just €50, and must travel as far as possible from the starting point within fourteen days. Along the way, they must be resourceful enough to earn money, for example, by washing dishes or working the land. They also have to arrange their own transportation, for example, by scooter, tuk-tuk, or hitchhiking. Luxury hotels are also out of the question, so this journey requires a lot of perseverance. After two weeks, we'll see which team has traveled the furthest from the starting point. That team wins.

Yellow boxes suddenly appear everywhere in the Netherlands. Inside: well-known Dutch people, closed off from everything that is familiar. Where are they? What is going to happen? As soon as the boxes open, the adventure begins. Without explanation, without rules. Under the leadership of Beau van Erven Dorens, the participants are taken to special locations, where they have to rely on their instincts again and again.

Ten candidates have to complete assignments to earn money. However, one of the group members is the Mole. The Mole's goal is to make the assignments fail and keep the amount of money earned as low as possible. The other candidates do not know who the Mole is and need to unmask them. At the end of every episode, the candidates take a multiple-choice test about the mole's identity. The person who gives the least amount of correct answers is "executed" and must leave. This process continues until only two contestants and the Mole remain. The winner is the person with the most correct answers in the final test and they get all of the money earned in previous stages of the game.

This might sound like a piece of cake, but nothing could be further from the truth. There is, in fact, a twist. In this hilarious and exciting quiz, participants divide themselves at one of the six answer options for every question. Each option is linked to a ball. Is a player standing at the correct answer? Then all is well, and the ball stops in time. But if the contestant in question gives a wrong answer, he or she takes an involuntary dive into the cooling pool water beneath them. What further makes De Kwis met Ballen unique is the team aspect. In every episode, the participants form a close-knit five-person team that knows each other inside out. Whether they are colleagues, family members, best friends, or football buddies, they know exactly what to expect from one another. Hopefully for them, this also brings a spark of luck: after all, no one wants to end up with a soaking wet suit.
