Best place you ever visited?
 

Hey all!

Hope you are all doing great. I love to travel and enjoy travel spots present there. What's the best place you had visited? I personally prefer Egypt. What's yours?

Great first post.

I love Blackpool.

Welcome, OP. Great question by the you!

Blackpool is good, but I prefer Skegness.

In all honesty, I couldn't nail down a single favourite place. I have a list of places I'm desperate to return to, which is probably the highest accolade from somewhere obsessed about going to new places - places like Japan, Yunnan Province, the Isles of Scilly, Kerala, the Northumberland Coast, San Sebastian, Bukhara...

Sorry.

Probably NZ for me so far. It's about as far as I can realistically get from my house, has some of the best roads I've ever driven and the scenery is amazing. Will be my fifth trip in December, but I have family there too.

Mine is Paris.

Tough question, and I'm pretty sure I answer it differently every time I'm asked. Though the answer I give the most is Istanbul.

Tuscany would probably be second choice.

Does the time someone whispered "Want to go upstairs?" in my ear count? :D

Other than that, I'd have to say Paris. That would be a combination of the place and who I was with. We weren't married at the time, but we are now (and have been back since for a return visit).

In terms of the place itself, Hawai'i and Australia are right up there too, but there are so many different aspects of "best." The best scenery? The best food? The best people? The best activities? It could be a long list!

I would have to say NZ, but Argentina and Chile also come to my mind. All three have surprised us the most and we want to go there again and again, and again..

Esfahan, Iran or camping in the desert in northern Sudan.

I have been to China 7 times and I am looking forward to my 8th visit in April. I have been all of the world and no place fascinates me more and feeds me better than China.

Hard one to answer

I lived in NZ for a year, and Bahamas for 2 years, those were the "best" places to live :)

Welcome to FlyerTalk. As some others have said my answer can change by mood, minute and the last place I visited.

After all is done it is still the Amazon for me, with particular emphasis on the jungle hotels near Manaus where the Rio Negro and Rio Amazonas merge http://www.brasil-turismo.com/fotos/rio-amazonas.htm the link is to a NASA photo that clearly shows the Negro continuing with the Amazonas beside it, running independently for a long distance before finally merging. An unbelievable experience!

For me, Barrow, Alaska (really great remote place to visit), and Stonehenge are very high on my list!

South Georgia Islands and Antarctica in 1998 - one of our fellow passengers wrote about the trip in a book, which is nice to have (let's say Peter Matthiessen is eminently more erudite than I) in End of the Earth: Voyages To Antarctica.

It didn't even take me seconds to think about this, though I have traveled in nearly 100 countries on the six other continents and scuba dived in >30 of them.

Yup, the first time on the top deck of a 747 is pretty memorable.

For me, I love Egypt and north Africa ... the culture, the history, the people and, of course, the weather! I wish I could say that I've made that decision based on having visited every country in the world but unfortuantely there are still large chunks I've yet to visit (Australasia and South America being the two biggest chunks).
