Beautiful photographs
My daughter is considering taking a gap year either in 2025 or 2026 to do some traveling in between her studies, but as yet she is undecided on what parts of the world she wants to travel and explore.This hardback book is full of beautiful photographs and gives a insight to where to explore in the given regions. It is a lovely book to just pick up and dip in and out of when you feel like.This book isn't a in-depth travel guide but certainly gives enough information to peak your interest to research the areas contained within it more and if you should add to your list of possible destinations to visit.My daughter will be sure to enjoy flicking through this book and is another one to add to her growing collection of travel books.

A unique way of looking at future travel plans
I've got lots of Lonely Planet books for specific locations, like India, Malta, Barcelona, but I wanted to have a look through this one to see if it'll broaden my travel horizons as I tend to keep going back to places I've already visited. I am happy to say that merely opening the book to the contents pages gives me enough information to know there are many places I need to visit and will be able to get some good insights from this Best in Travel book.What interests me the most is that it's not just a top 10 list of cities or countries, but theme based ideas of which some really resonate with me like the parks, beaches and "taking it easy". I'm really glad I got this book.

Inspirational Travel Ideas
I'm always impressed by the quality of Lonely Planet travel books and this is no exception. The book is split into four sections - Top 10 Countries; Top 10 Cities; Top 10 regions (nice to see east Anglia included here); Top 10 travel trends (including the Bentham line in England in the train hopping section) . The travel trend section has ten recommendations for each of the trends. So in total there are 70 ideas for travel in 2025.The photography in the book is stunning and whilst none of the destinations is covered in depth, you certainly get an idea and flavour of each place. There's a map of each country, a highlights section, a short amount of descriptive text and an information box which includes one to three of the following - when to go; how to get there; further reading.Definitely more useful if you are considering globe-trotting next year, as most of the locations are further afield. However, I think my favourite section is the travel trends - looking at things like market shopping, train hopping and arboreal adventures (tree watching). Even if you are more of an armchair adventurer it will inspire you.Overall - would make a lovely Christmas present for someone looking to travel in 2025.

Good variety of recommendations
This Lonely Planest Best in Travel 2025 has a hard cover and the images are beautiful. It has a couple of top 10 inside, including Top 10 countries, cities, regions and travel trends. It covers loads of interesting places.For each place, there are 4 pages of description/images. This includes a couple of highlights, when to go, how to get there and further reading. It provides a good starting point for choosing a travel destination and also to start planning.

Hmmm…. Not sure it’s worth the money?
Tad disappointed tbh - the book is less suststantial looking than I expected for the price- though as it’s a present, I haven’t read it. Hoping that the content delivers !
