I'm desperate to go to Zanzibar - preferably twinned with a Serengeti Safari. My bucket list gets bigger the more I travel though so also on there are Namibia, Hong Kong, India (Kerala) and Nicaragua. I'm lucky to have ticked a few off my list already but I need more ,only and more time off work!

FarFromAnyRoad · 08/07/2015 09:04

Zanzibar here too. Cape Town. Florence - the last one remaining from my Italy list.

  1. New Zealand also for stunning scenery.

far Cape Town was top of my wish list until 5 years ago when I toom. Year off and went travelling. It really did live up to expectations.

Nabootique · 08/07/2015 09:16

I started my bucket travel list in my early twenties when I found Pinterest. So far I've done;

Italy
The Maldives
Ibiza (for both lifestyles & the sunset)
Paris

Left on the list;

Switzerland
Australia
Iceland

stinkingbishop · 08/07/2015 10:06

Japan & Bhutan too - shall we have a MN trip?!

And then it's a toss-up between sailing the North West Passage/seeing the wildebeest migration/watching a turtle lay eggs (handily combined with some sort of south pacific idyll)/northern lights huddled in a siberian yurt

Iflyaway · 08/07/2015 10:08

I had Tanzania on my list and just did it - Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Zanzibar.... Amazing!

Still on my list (random):

Tibet

Namibia

Machu Picchu

StarsInTheNightSky · 08/07/2015 10:16

I've done quite a bit on my bucket list as I was lucky enough to have a job where I worked all over the world, but my top three still to do are:

Easter Island
French Polynesia (to see the Sun fish migration)
Roa trip across deep south USA

SooticaTheWitchesCat · 08/07/2015 10:17

Morocco - Marrakech, Essaouira, Fez
India

cardibach · 08/07/2015 10:17

I've been lucky enough to have been to some of the places others have listed. They're all good!
Mine at the moment are:
Vietnam- rReunification Express from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi then trip into the mountains to visit the child I sponsor
Train through the Canadian Rockies
American road trip NY to Nashville via eastern seaboard and Mississippi delta.

None of these is strictly 'a place' but I'm a bit greedy travel-wise!

LovelyFriend · 08/07/2015 10:17

I'm not telling. I want to go to places that don't have too many other people there :)

crapfatbanana · 08/07/2015 10:21

Anywhere, to be honest.

But...

  1. Take my kids to Yosemite and Yellowstone National Parks
  2. Corsica
  3. Madagascar
