The 64-year-old actress - who played Liz McDonald in 'Coronation Street' - and Jordan, 31, have teamed up to shoot a new series for ITV, after forming a firm friendship during their time on 'I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!' last year.
A TV source told The Sun newspaper: "Jordan and Bev were a hit together on camera when they filmed in the castle together last year.
"They were approached about working together on a new travel show for ITV and they both jumped at the chance.
"In 'I’m A Celebrity' Bev and Jordan became really close. They have a very natural chemistry and get on really well.
"That relationship continued off screen and they are good mates, which makes this show even more likely to be a huge success because that friendship is very much the real deal.
"Everything is still being mapped out for the pair and producers are currently working on the exact locations the duo will travel to.
"Jordan and Bev couldn’t be more excited about working together again and this show will promise not just good culture and amazing food - but a whole load of laughs."
Beverley previously heaped praise on Jordan after meeting him on 'I'm a Celeb'.
The veteran actress said: "I'd never met him before, until that first day when the first sight of him was him throwing up on the cliff top.
"I was thinking, who is this guy? When you meet someone eye to eye, he's got the warmest eyes, he's the kindest, gentlest person but also is just naturally funny. He doesn't try, it just pours out of him. He's gorgeous."
