At some point in your life you will travel. There are many different ways that a person can travel. There is by Vehicle, Bus lines, Bicycle, Motorcycle, Airplane among others. Now me personally it depends on what time of year it is that I am doing the traveling. When I am traveling in he winter I use Greyhound bus lines to do my traveling with. During the spring I will use the Amtrack train. Now during the spring and the summer I like to go by old fashion hitch hiking. Yeah I know that hitch hikers have gotten a bad reputation over the years but I still like to do it. Now what are your favorite way or ways to travel. Inquiring minds like my own want to know. So please to tell me.

I do get to travel quite often, in the country and overseas too, mostly on business trips. On those trips, I travel by plane of course. But, when traveling on holidays in the country, I enjoy driving along the cross-country highways. That's an excellent way to see the countryside and visit cities and small towns along the way.

I like to drive or fly, since I live in Texas and we seldom get icy roads, a trip isn't unreasonable any time of year. I also like to fly because then I can spend my trip being there instead of getting there... However, some parts of trips are the pleasure OF getting there...

Hi! I like traveling by car, you can see a lot of places and take a lot of pictures,more bonding time,adventure. Traveling with a plane is much faster but th fun is not there.As long as we are able to arrive to out destinations safely fun will surely be there. :D

A very interesting topic here, But I tend to hate public transport because there's too much people and I hate waiting for the bus or train. After school, I have to take both the train and the bus just to get home and they're always packed loaded full of people from work and students. I don't mind taking public transport when the busy times are over and there's hardly anyone on the bus or train. Then I would enjoy sitting there while watching out the window. But I would prefer to travel in a car as it's more relaxing especially when someone else is driving me I love traveling in the car at night. I love watching the lights flash by and it makes me feel more relaxed and sleepy. I tend to sleep in the car at night. It's more quiet at night too.

I want a road trip with an owned car or any ride. :D I also enjoy riding a fast train, watching what's on both sides, enjoying the scenery. :)

It depends on the destination nerein....i love riding motorbikes and I'm wishing to do long travels with motorbikes, but still it would depend on the place and destination. When i was in the US I used Greyhound from LA to LV and I enjoyed the trip though the bathroom was not that clean I was able to see some landscapes. From Fresno to Bakersfield, i used Amtrak train, it was very comfortable and clean, then onward travel with Amtrak bus back to LA In Europe, I used the ICE train which travels very fast and I liked it very much. It took me only 6 hours from Munich to Hannover. From country to country, of course I need to fly. Now i am dreaming to travel the world with a motorbike.

Of course I love to travel via airplane, I just love the air and clouds underneath me. But, of course that would depend where I am gonna be. But most people rather choose a public bus or cruise ship. I don't know, well that's their choice.

Im flying. If I'm visiting Florida and have a choose between 10 hours greyhound or 11/2 airplane. The plane sounds convenient and I have more time for tourism. The last time I took greyhound to NY it was during the winter and all the stops were so coold. I couldn't wait to reach my destination. Im considering a road trip with friends!! Driving...

I walk whenever I can... I know I can't get far that way though :) I like traveling by train, it's comfortable, i can stand up and walk a little bit when I want, or look out of the window. I hate buses but that's the way I travel most of the time. Flying is not my favorite, taking off and landing is still scary for me, when the plane is up it's ok but I wouldn't do it every day.

I still haven't been on a plane yet (I will have been on one for the first time this coming January), so I guess I don't know which way for sure, but I really like trains. I rode on them all the time when I was little. I just feel comfortable on them and the way they feel is nice. I prefer walking whenever I can though. Growing up in an urban setting, this was how I got everywhere, and I feel it helps you better with directions if you're on your own two feet.

Most of the time, when I still used to travel, it was either by car, or by motorcycle. The longest trip I ever took was on a motorcycle and went up the coastline of Eastern US. I LOVE to travel by motorcycle. Of course, you mostly camp along the way, but there is nothing like it in the world. Every city has it's own distinct odors from the types of factories they have, as well as the scents of their countryside. When you travel by motorcycle, it's definitely more of a total sensory experience than when you travel by car or any other vehicles. You can feel climate changes, feel (and smell) air that comes across the ocean. I can no longer travel by motorcycle, but that was always my favorite. Some day I'd like to take a train trip. Whether that ever happens or not, I think it would be fun too. I have never traveled by bus. As far as that goes, I've only ridden in a city bus, taxi, and subway once in my whole life. (Yeah, I know, I'm a real country bumpkin lol:-) Never took a cruise vacation either, and that's one I definitely don't want to do. Have nice trips wherever you go nerein!

My favorite way to travel is by train because it is so relaxing and enjoyable. In the daytime I can look out of the window and see the scenery. During the night time I can sleep in a comfortable compartment. I like within walking distance of a train station. The longest train ride I have been on is from Cairns to Brisbane in Australia. It took a total of 36 hours. I have slept in bunks on trains in Europe, Turkey and Malaysia. If there isn't a train service my next choice is by bus. On that I can see the scenery out of the window in the daytime. During the night sitting in a bus seat or coach seat is very uncomfortable indeed. I have to travel by plane due to needing to travel quickly from one continent to another. I find is less comfortable than going by train. I like to sail but only when there aren't rough waves.

Hello. My favorite travel vehicle is my car. I love to travel by car because I'm in control of my journey. Its my time, my speed, my stop & go whenever, wherever I feel like. Right now, I traveled in my car to a hill station which is about four hours driving distance from my place. The journey is through forest path and we got to watch spotted deer [big herd] on the way! If we were lucky, we would even encounter some elephants as well as other wild animals crossing the path. I had to drive up hill with nearly 40 very sharp hairpin curves. It requires nerves, skill and patience while driving but it is quite reassuring when its completed. I have done extensive use of my car for travel even when I had my earlier smaller car and now I own a bigger, spacious car, which is comfortable. We put all our things with us in the car and will not bother to move around with stuff when we check into destination. For ling distance travel, my choice is train. It is convenient in every way. One can move about freely, can have a comfortable sitting as well as sleeping and there's special food on some fast trains. It's never strenuous. And if there is a group travelling, it is fun too.
