You’ll find hot tips for the best sights, bites, museums, and more for each location, as well as practical planning advice for when to go and what to expect when you arrive. And there’s something in these pages for every traveler: history buff, art lover, foodie, beach bum, or anyone in between. Take a dim sum tour through San Francisco’s Chinatown; hop a bullet train from Tokyo to Kyoto to capture two of Japan’s best cities in one vacation; discover the hidden historical gems in bustling Mumbai; bathe in the sun on Sydney’s beaches; temple hop your way through Bangkok and shop its floating markets; stand on the edge of the world in Ushuaia, Argentina, the world’s southernmost city; take a walk through art history in Florence; or go on an urban safari in Nairobi. Filled with expert tips, bonus side trip suggestions, and tons of innovative activities, this is an inspirational and practical keepsake for any kind of globetrotter.
I am excited to dig in this book but it is more difficult than it has to be. It would have been great if each city were listed in the index, as I would like to look up a specific city and/or check off the cities that I have already explored. Also, cities in the same country would be nice to be together in the book to make it easier when traveling to a specific country. Also the map in the front of the book does not have the cities marked that are in the book... not sure what the map is for? Anyway, I love to travel and this is a great book. It just could have been easier to navigate.
