I love a book that compels me to move from a desire to go to a new world, to a "must go". This book makes me "have to go" to so many world destinations. "The World's Best" stimulates dreams and pushes you towards engaging your dreams. It is not a travel guide. It is a great resource guide that list the best of world destinations. Especially interesting and useful is the list of the World's Best Retirement Haven and the World's Best Real Estate Buys. Though it is dated (1992 and I do hope that this book gets a second edition, soon!) true quality defies time. Paris is listed as the greatest city of the world and the Eiffel Tower is still its most famous site. If there is a weakness it is the lack of references to follow up your "must go" urge to go to a destination. But then, maybe there isn't a World's best travel agent and you have to dig deeper.If you are a world traveler or a want-a-be then this will be a wonderful addition to your collection of dream books.

This book is never far from me. It has traveled to every country I've gone to and would like to go to. It literally makes the trip special, even if you travel to the same place more than once! The suggestions are unique and yet easy tofind. I can't say enough about it except to buy it and never go on a trip without it's valuable information and interestingplaces to see.
