Mac Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Anyone got any advice on arranging a bit of a whirl-wind around the world trip? I'm thinking of doing this for 4/5 weeks around Nov/December time - heading east. I was thinking Thailand/Cambodia/Vietnam maybe Aus or NZ then back via the States. I realise that's a lot to get in in 5 weeks so will probably trim it. Very early planning stages but if anyone has any experience of that kind of trip your advise would be much appreciated I'll formulate a list of explicit questions shortly.

Your body clock will thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_Bangle Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Checkout this site from Virgin, Air NZ & Singapore Airlines. You can plan your own route, use a set route or compare it to a route someone has done already. Just set aside a couple of hours as it can become quite addictive. http://www.thegreatescapade.com/ Oh, and don't forget the frequent flyer miles.
