Travelling without a plan can be liberating, but it could soon become mindless wandering without an overarching purpose. For holistic, joyous, and fulfilling adventures, try these 10 travel experiences at least once.
Water covers 70% of the earth’s surface. The largest of mysteries in the world delve into the ocean. Go scuba diving in the Philippines and discover the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
We owe so much of our science and culture to ancient Egypt, Greece, Mesopotamia, and Harappa. Visit the ruins, temples, and other archaeological sites to gain deeper insight into world history.
The sky is as unfathomable as the ocean. Maybe even more so. Spot the Aurora Borealis in West Greenland. Engage in some Astrophotography and capture eclipses, supermoons, and comet trails.
Seeing the world and experiencing cultures other than yours is vital to becoming well-rounded. It doesn’t have to be all at once but visit as many countries as possible. Go backpacking in all 16 directions.
Nature is fascinating and a part of us all. If you, too, loved wildlife documentaries on Nat Geo growing up, don’t miss the golden opportunity to visit the jungles of Tanzania and South Africa.
There is nothing better than holiday travel to put you in high spirits! Visit the snowy landscapes of the Alps, Kilimanjaro, Andes, or the Himalayas, and visit the Christmas markets of Europe.
This one is on many people’s bucket lists and should be on yours, too. Visit the seven most significant monuments of the world, the ruins of Machu Picchu, the Taj Mahal, Christ the Redeemer, and the rest.
Most European countries are landlocked, which means that you can take a long scenic train journey and tour around countries like Switzerland, Scotland, Austria, and Italy. With a single Eurail Pass, you can travel to up to 33 countries.
Glaciers, rivers, and waterfalls hold mighty intrigue for tourists. The elemental force of water can be felt in its raw form. Visit iconic places like Niagara Falls in Canada, Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, and Iguazu Falls in Argentina.
For the daredevils at heart, sheer physical adventure is a non-negotiable part of travel. Trek through the Grand Canyon National Park and try your hand at besting Mount Kilimanjaro and the Everest.
