Unforgettable Journeys: Slow down and see the world

Discover the joys of slow travel.

It's the journey, not the destination, so the saying goes, and what better way to see the world than by moving through it. Take an epic road trip through the Scottish Highlands, set off on a breathtaking bike ride through Bollenstreek's bulb fields, jump aboard the romantic Venice Simplon-Orient-Express - these are once-in-a-lifetime adventures that will stay with you forever.

Featuring over 200 inspirational entries, Unforgettable Journeys is a vibrant celebration of taking the scenic route. We've picked the world's best adventures, from cruising around Alaska and Antarctica to train journeys in Zambia and Zimbabwe. Of course, the big-hitters are covered - interrailing through Europe, driving Route 66 and walking the Camino de Santiago - but we also take you off-the-beaten path, cycling around the Loire Valley, kayaking through Finnish lakeland and trekking through Australia's stunning Blue Mountains. We've organized the book by types of transport, so whether you're an avid hiker, cyclist or driver, or love to be on the water or on the rails, we've got you covered.
