Book Reviews of Journeys of a Lifetime: 500 of the World's Greatest Trips
Book Review: Not the best of its kind
Summary: 3 Stars
I was hoping for something along the lines of "A Year od Adventures," but I didn't like this as much. It's divided up into chapters for different modes of travel, which means (for example) that there's a whole section on train trips. That's not really my thing.
When I buy travel books, I want to learn about places I'd never heard of before. That's getting tougher, 'cause I've heard of all kinds of places - did you know we have a whole state called "Delaware"? - but there are still a few out there. Most of them aren't in this book.
Get "A Year of Adventures" instead.
Book Review: Well worth the price!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book was purchased as a gift for someone who travels around the world. I was not disappointed! The quality of the book is great! The pictures are beautiful. There were so many different suggestions of places to travel. I was very satisfied!Book Review: Journeys of a lifetime-500 greateast trips

The photography is stunning and the text is is clear.
The book gives good ideas for a tailormade type of vacation.
My niece uses it for school projects as she has no internet access.
Book Review: For those who love to travel
Summary: 5 Stars
What a wonderful book, worth every penny. The pictures are the best. Gave this as a gift to a couple who travel the world and they loved it. You feel like you are there or very much want to be there.Book Review: A really different travel book!
Summary: 5 Stars
A great book - really different from a lot of the other travel books I've read. I actually ended up getting two of them as gifts. In particular, it breaks down trips by type - such as by rail, by car, by plane and also by such things as trips involving gourmet food or following in the footsteps of Ansel Adams. Great pictures as well.
