I had considered the weird as well as the exotic, getting my pic taken underneath the crossed swords in Baghdad for instance.

Really looking for somewhere different, out of the way, exclusive, once in a lifetime kinda thing. Fascinated by Easter Island, Tahiti, Antarctica, you get the idea. Anybody actually been to any of these places or anywhere else they could recommend?

Now that's a candidate, only 45 mins from Tahiti!

I've always fancied a trip on one of those scientific survey ships - the Galapagos Islands maybe?

Can you do that? That would be a cool trip to do.

I always wanted to go to Easter Island and have researched it. They put an airport in when Costner did a film there and I understand that's spoilt it somewhat.

The missus has been to Tahiti. The south sea islands have always been high on my list but not visited. I would go for Patagonia over Antarctica & always fancied Pitcairn Island(as an out of the way place, but they did have some issues a few years back). I would always recommend Nepal and a visit to Bhutan, plus Indonesia is a cool country with lots and lots of different islands/peoples.
