Crossword Genius

Authentic sort of travel, without television (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

real

'authentic' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'sort of travel without television' is the wordplay.
'sort of' is an anagram indicator.
'without' indicates named letters should be taken away.
'television' becomes 'tv' (synonyms).
'travel' with 'tv' taken out is 'rael'.
'rael' is an anagram of 'REAL'.

(Other definitions for real that I've seen before include "Physically existing" , "very American" , "Pukka" , "Actually existing" , "---- Madrid, Spanish football club" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
