Title: Fun, challenging game
Review: The game is very fun to play with family or friends. It is challenging and keeps the playerâs attention through to the end. Strategies can be learned each time played. It last a good amount of time. It is a great way to learn about iconic tourist sights across the globe. It also reminds us how accessible places are across the globe and how connected we can be. It was fun to be reminded what countries are included in each continent. Reading the tour cards was interesting. The game is set up where it will be different every time the game is set up; different locations will be featured each time played. It is a great family fun game across ages. We all put down our electronic devices and made eye contact having conversations. Family game night is now back in our house with this game. Players 2 to 5 gives the option to play with a different amount of people. The video link explains the game quickly. That is very helpful, but there are a lot of procedures and rules in situations to keep up with that are not clearly accessible in the printed instructions. There is a helpful instruction reminder card for each player for the basics. The game kept all age groups involved. Be sure to have players watch the instruction video before setting up. (Such a great feature!) The price of the game seemed high for a board game, but it provides great entertainment. Players really have to pay attention and stay engaged. Pretty cool board game!

Title: Great game, even better quality!
Review: This game is pretty easy to pick up and a lot of fun for everyone in the family--especially if your family is interested at all in travel. Very similar mechanic to the Ticket to Ride series, but with more emphasis on the destinations. While the objective is simple--accumulate the most points--there are various strategies that can be employed in order to achieve that end, which allows for a varied have experience each time you play.What REALLY sets this product apart, though, is the quality and attention to detail. The destination cards provide a lot of points and are the most obvious means to achieving a high score. Underdog Games didn't NEED to provide beautiful artwork on each card AND a well-written description...but they did, because they obviously have passion for the product they provide. The packaging is beautiful, as well, and the high quality cards and pieces all fit security in their specific locations in the well organized tray. Plus, illustrating the INSIDE of the box (with multicolored passport stamps) is a really nice touch.Overall, this is a worthy addition to any board game collection OR a great gift for a travel buff. If you happen to be looking for a gift for someone who loves to travel AND enjoys board games, look no further and order this game immediately.

Title: Fun, replayable, relaxing, and excitingly competitive!
Review: I rated the game 5 stars for the same reason others had rated this 1 star, because of the various ways to score points! Others see it as unnecessary complexity (those who didn't research before buying), but actually it isn't, it makes the game very replayable because on your turn, you are presented with multiple options you can take. For those who are finding a game who wants a simple step by step of do 1, then do 2, then do 3, then buy Ticket to Ride, simple but could feel repetitive and a bit boring after just 5 games since you're doing the same every time. With Trekking the World, the various options you can take on a turn makes the game always interesting and feels new every time, highly replayable! On top of those options, you can also change the journey cards used for every game thus adjusting everyone's strategy further as those cards offers something different (and there are 12 of them). The game is easy to learn as the rulebook is very clear.I'm playing it as a 2 player game and it works very well, highly competitive but still relaxing and fun. There is always the excitement to plan your moves efficiently to collect points while pursuing the larger objectives (the destination cards) with the excitement/tension to do it first before your opponent does.The item was shipped internationally (to the Philippines) and everything (box and components inside) are complete and in perfect condition. I actually appreciate the minimal plastic used on the packaging (in comparison to local distributors/sellers who put way too much plastic).

Title: Challenging, interesting game
Review: We loved the Trekking the National Parks game, so decided to try another game from the same makers. This Trekking the World game won out, and we happily opened it up once we got here and checked it out. The rules are quite a bit more complicated than Trekking the National Parks, but the game itself is fun and moves along quickly once you get it figured out. There are a lot of ways to earn points--probably too many since one of the ways we never did figure out how to get or use. The game differs enough from the Park Trekking game that almost none of the rules carried over. That said, we had a lot of fun playing it and are looking forward to the next time we play, when we shouldn't have to spend 30 minutes figuring out the rules before we could get started.

Title: Another great game!
Review: Loved Trekking the National Parks so much that I decided to try this one out as well. Somewhat different rules but all in the same theme. Had my grandkids laughing and having a great time! Good for overview of global geography and great sites on our planet. This is a keeper.

Title: Great, well designed game
Review: I was very impressed with the game quality. Very well implemented and thought out. We like more portable games as a rule (we love taking games on cruises). This is definitely too bulky. But it is fun to play at home, from time to time. We are addicted right now to Terraforming Mars Ares Exp. We also regularly play Age of Galaxy and Race for the Galaxy. Star Realms is pretty great too.

Review: Delivered in a timely fashion, and was well packaged. Not overly difficult to learn, just requires a good read-through of the rulebook. Fun to play with added bonus of learning value regarding world attractions. Just the right amount of strategy - not too complicated. An aesthetically pleasing game to look at and to play. Highly recommended!!

Review: This is so good. Trekking The World is an excellent game. Once you've learnt where all the parts go, it's quick to set up. Quality parts, lovely pictures and board. Well worth the money. We also liked Trekking Through History - another great game from Underdog games!

Review: My partner and I really enjoy playing the game. The cards are beautifully designed, the rules after 1 round are simple to follow. You compete but itâs not aggressive so you can easily play only 2-4 people and have lots of fun every time. Would definitely recommend for casual game nights.

Review: Gioco in inglese con regole semplici ma molto carino da affrontare in almeno 3 giocatori per darsi battaglia in giro per il globo. In 2 giocatori gira comunque bene ma ognuno pensa più alla sua strategia. Disegni molto belli, plancia grande e colorata. Non c'è molto testo da leggere a parte il regolamento che si trova in internet anche tradotto in italiano. Consigliato per tutte le età e per giocatori neofiti ed esperti.
