- Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2024This is a great book! LOTS of color photos and lots of locations and things to do - Many I did not even know existed! I have two friends and we love to travel together, as well as making "dream" or "bucket" lists. I bought one of these for each of them as Christmas gifts. I ended up liking it so much, I bought one for myself. It is also great reading right before bed because the write-ups of each place/thing to do is short and the imagery is beautiful. Definitely worth the price!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2024The media could not be loaded.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2024I purchased this as a gift for my 20 year old son to inspire him. It’s already done its job. This book is beautifully put together. It has gorgeous photos and great information on each location. It’s a perfect coffee table book. My son has flipped through this many times a talks about where he want to go based on ideas from book. He loves it, said it was one of his favorite Christmas gifts this year. And this kid is not a reader or a fan of books in general so that says a lot.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2024I got this book to help inspire my family on new things to try. It's full of great information and beautiful pictures.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2025Wonderful book, and in a better condition than expected for a thrift buy!
- Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2024Love flipping through these pages for travel inspiration. Very good coffee table book that will inspire your guests!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2024Gave as graduation gifts, then had to buy one for myself. I’m not a huge traveler; but fun to “travel from my couch!”
- Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2023An easy read..and fun book of places to go to and explore!

5.0 out of 5 stars Traveler
If you like traveling at all, this book is a must. Really stunning photos and very informative.
- AvaliaçãoReviewed in Brazil on December 17, 2023
2.0 out of 5 stars Not an adventure book
This is not a book on big and small adventures. The title is misleading. It is just a bunch of random places to see or basic things to do. I don't consider "seeing the Taj Mahal", or any other building for that matter, an adventure. There is just a handful of actual adventures listed here. Well, it depends on your idea of adventure, of course, but I was disappointed. For example, there are 5 brazilian adventures, all of them sightseeing or watching a concert in Rio de Janeiro. This is just absurd. I could list a hundred more interesting things to do in the country, or even in the city of Rio. Therefore, I imagine other countries are also badly represented in the book. I also expected more and better pictures.
