Spring weather brings out my itchy feet. If I don’t have a trip on deck, it’s a great time to plan one. This oversized book with gorgeous photos by National Geographic contains concise, beautifully-illustrated articles on unusual places to visit, arranged by mode of travel.

For example, river cruises are the latest craze and the book covers tours offered all over the world, from the Danube to the Nile, down the Yangtze and through the St. Lawrence Seaway. There are suggestions for those who like to pilot their own boat and Internet information for all trips.

Whether you want to travel across Mongolia on a yak, bike down death-defying trails in South America, hike through Tuscany or ride in comfort on the famed Orient Express rail line, the trip of your dreams lies within these pages.
