my vote goes to: Tibet!!!
the only place I've been to that I missed upon returning to SG (so far, no other countries have such a draw)
Santorini and Mykonos island in Greece.
Next year, planning a trip to Crete and Santorini island.:cheers1:
Nepal and tibet. :)
Here is some scenes from the tibet rail we took 2 years ago. :)

Autumn in Hokkaido with Prime Travel (self drive tour).
It was money well spent.
To me, when I travel, I am very particular about the service, accomodation and food.
Anything lesser than my home standard is not acceptable.
The most memorable one was to Europe during my honeymoon. Joined the Contiki land tours... Covered London, Paris, Rome, Venice, Amsterdam, Austria. Forever etched in memory.
My honeymoon, we went on a free and easy trip to Norway, Austria and Czech Republic. The 18 day trip was very interesting and romantic.

Unforgettable can be bad also right......
My worse trip was to South Korea on a guided tour (my first and last guided tour).
I would rather get lost in a foreign land, than join anymore guided tour!
The food was yucky, the supposed 5 star hotel was horrible, the tour guide was rude and sarcastic especially when I did not buy their things.
Tromso (Norway) to catch northern nights :D aka aurora borealis.
Copenhagen (Demark) and Stockholm (Swenden) - Very nice culture feel and weather.

They are still in my opinion, one of the best there. However its a bit ex cos small groups. That time was about 7-8pax max. Others have 20-30pax in a bus.
Planning for this next year, if can.

I can't remember the names of the hotels I stayed there but there was a decent one on the last day. But the whole trip was marred by the preceding days of bad experience.
No tai tai lah.
Tai tai go on holidays paid by someone other than herself.
To me, if go on holiday, pay so much must enjoy mah, cannot have half past 6 type.

Welcome!:) :)
My most unforgetable vacation was in USA about >20 yrs back. I saw the snow falling down from the sky while I was at the apartment, that was the 1st time I saw the snow. It continued snowing for a few days. At the highway, the snow hit against our windscreen like a white blooming flower, it was soooooo beautiful.
