10 Best Once In A Lifetime Trips: Best Of 2013 Bucket List Travel

By Larry Olmsted
Was your New Year’s Resolution to travel more? Or to see more of the world? Or to have life changing experiences and create forever memories? If so, there’s a “Bucket List” trip for you to take this year – and not just any amazing journey, but the very best of its type.
There are lots of travel “bucket lists,” but most come up short on two counts. They are overly broad, like “go climb a mountain,” and they fail to take into account that people have different tastes – not everyone wants to climb mountains.
This list is a variety of experiences and destinations by theme for every taste, and each is the best in its class, from awesome skiing to space travel.
One person’s Bucket List activity can be another person’s ho-hum, especially when it comes to hobbies or passions. If you are a golfer, teeing it up in the birthplace of golf, Scotland’s St. Andrews, is a dream come true. If you are not, it hardly rates as a once in a lifetime experience.
From ancient ruins to sports to nature, this 10 Best List has something for everyone.
