Islands are unique - their very isolation allows them to be different. Unforgettable Islands to Escape to Before You Die takes you to the most spectacular islands on the planet. Some are remote, others you will never have heard of. Some are more familiar but are shown in a way that will surprise and intrigue you. From the ancient rock island of Kubu in the middle of a salt pan in Botswana, to thriving Hong Kong Island; from the quiet remoteness of the Stockholm Archipelago to the frenetic festival on Sagar Island in the Ganges in India and even from the snowy wastes of Svalbard in the high Arctic to the deserted shores of Socotra off the coast of Yemen this book will show you a world you probably never knew existed but won't be able to resist exploring. Brought to you by the same team as the internationally bestselling Unforgettable Places to See Before You Die, this lavishly illustrated and evocatively written book that will educate and inspire both the experienced and armchair traveller alike.

A captivating book showcasing 40 must-see places worldwide, from iconic sites like the Alhambra and Taj Mahal to lesser-known destinations like Angkor Wat and the dunes of Deadvlei in Namibia. It offers background information and travel tips to inspire your next journey.

Queremos ver monumentos antiguos, paisajes extraordinarios, animales salvajes en peligro de extinción, nuevas culturas, manifestaciones arquitectónicas y artísticas, así como lugares que nos permitan ampliar los horizontes. En ese sentido, este libro recoge algunos de esos lugares o experiencias imprescindibles. A pesar de ofrecer numerosos consejos a los viajeros, ésta no pretende ser un guía de viaje, sino que se trata de una mera introducción a una serie de lugares espectaculares que se pueden visitar en unas vacaciones de dos semanas o incluso menos. Profusamente ilustrado con fotografías únicas y de una enorme belleza, esta obra es una invitación para ir más allá del restringido entorno habitual y visitar algunos de los destinos más maravillosos del mundo.
