Description
You only get one life. Make it a memorable one.
This is the second title in an exciting international bestselling series of books that will help you search out essential sights and experiences around the world.
In Unforgettable Things to Do Before You Die, international travel writers and photographers Steve Watkins and Clare Jones draw on their years of experience to select their ultimate trips of a lifetime. This book will introduce you to a host of unusual and amazing activities to be done in fabulous destinations during a break of two weeks or less.
Adventures range from searching for pearls in Tahiti, French Polynesia, and dog-sledding through the snowy landscapes of Sweden, to exploring the rainforests of Belize, and sailing down the Nile on an Egyptian felucca. For the less active explorer they offer more relaxed but equally unmissable pursuits, such as watching an opera in the ancient ruins of Verona, Italy, or wine-tasting in Bordeaux, France. Lavishly illustrated with specially commissioned photographs, Unforgettable Things to Do Before You Die is aimed at anyone looking for an inspirational experience of a lifetime.
This is an inspirational collection of the world's most amazing travel experiences, packed with stunning full-colour photography with a beautiful and contemporary new design. For fans of Lonely Planet's Ultimate Travelist (54, 829 TCM).
