As a tourist the fastest and perhaps the most comfortable way to travel long distances is by air. You can sit back and relax, read, or even watch a video. Of course you have to pay more money and run the risk of being delayed. Some people refuse to fly for fear of accidents. However, according to statistics it is a safe way to travelPerhaps the most convenient way to travel is by car, simply because you decide when and where to stop. You have the freedom to organise your own timetable so there’s no danger of missing appointments. However, you may need somebody else to help share the driving, a good map reader and petrol money. There is also that the car will break down or you will feel travel sick.

Travelling by ship is often the cheapest form of travel. Unlike other means of transport you have the chance to move around on or below deck. Large ship often have shops, T.V. lounges and restaurants so there’s plenty to do. However, a sea voyage is a slowest way to get to your destination and should be avoided if you suffer from sea sickness.A train journey is often the best way to see a country. You can sit back and enjoy the view or have a meal in the restaurant car. For long journeys you can reserve a bed in a sleeping compartment. However you may be delayed or miss your connection. It is also not the fastest or cheapest way to travel.
