Amazing boat journeys ; 60 unforgettable trips over water and how to experience them.. Carlton, Victoria : Lonely Planet Global Limited, 2019. Subjects Travel -- Guidebooks.   Boats and boating -- Guidebooks.   Cruise ships -- Guidebooks. ISBN:  9781788681308 (hardcover) : 1788681304 (hardcover) Series:  Lonely Planet journeys. Description:  304 pages : color illustrations, maps ; 25 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  Experience 60 of the world's greatest adventures on water - from sailing the Nile by felucca and cruising the Canadian Arctic, to exploring Pitcairn Island by cargo ship. With detailed accounts of each route, beautiful photos and practical tips on how to plan your own voyage, Amazing Boat Journeys will help you discover a more rewarding way of travelling. From the seafaring Polynesians to the Chinese Age of Discovery, travel by water shaped the world. That same spirit of exploration compels Lonely Planet writers today to travel by cargo freighter and fishing vessel to the world's most remote islands; to hop onto mailboats in the Bahamas; or to experience life on a historic sail-powered windjammer. These journeys are eclectic and wide-ranging, from the wonder of a glass-bottomed boat ride through Florida springs to the ease of a thatch-roofed kettuvallam exploring Kerala's famed backwaters. Old-fashioned paddlesteamers ply the length of the Mississippi in the style of the 1800s, and cruise ships on the Yangtze feature enthusiastic karaoke in Mandarin. Off-the-beaten-path cruises include Antarctica and Papua New Guinea. On the opposite end of the spectrum from a weeks-long journey over open seas is the charm of seeing a city from the water, whether crossing Victoria Harbour via Hong Kong's classic Star Ferry, viewing the banks of London from the Thames, or traversing Bangkok on the Chao Phraya River. Each trip includes authoritative commentary, awe-inspiring photography, and details of life on board the vessel, similar routes, and how to make the trip happen.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 910.202 Am Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 910.202 Amazing Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 910.202 Am Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 910.202 Am Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Nonfiction 910.202 Am Checked In Add Copy to MyList Molokai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 910.202 Am Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 910.202 Am Checked In Add Copy to MyList
