Sharing experiences The website has detailed travel write-ups with well-shot pictures

While the members of this all-encompassing, multi-purpose travel website (pronounced boots ‘n’ all) have had every imaginable adventure.

The creators have organised this information impeccably, making it easy to browse through various sections and effortlessly discover hundreds of fascinating tourist destinations. Handpicked brochures for exotic locales are classified according to continents and show you what your options are depending on the type of trip you’re planning, ranging from safaris and snow sports to volunteering and culture tours.

The featured articles in the travel writing section are from travellers from every part of the world and are written in painstaking detail with photographs that look like professionally shot picture postcards.

Their search engine is quite the miracle worker: it asks you to pick a duration, continent, trip type and price after which it displays results in seconds, giving you a day-wise itinerary, available dates and even lists several links to similar trips in case you want to look around before making a decision.

You can also flip through the free listings of the best deals in airfare and accommodation or ask questions in the “Insiders” section where experts answer specific questions based on their own past experience in that region.

The message boards are alive with chatter, featuring discussions about everything from living abroad to people’s favourite superheroes.

Membership is free and entitles you to share photos on Flickr, browse through members-only forums and share feedback on your travels.
