It is time to hop on this trend: unpopular travel opinions!

Is Paris or Rome worth the visit or are they overrated? Should you recline your seat on a plane? What about child-free flights? Some may be controversial, and some may just be preferences in travel, but we’ve all got travel opinions, right?

Thanks to a listener suggestion, we polled our listeners on Instagram and found out all your unpopular travel opinions. So in this episode, we’re listing them out and giving our opinions too!

What opinions do you think you’ll hear? What are your unpopular travel opinions? You can let us know in the comments or reach us on Twitter @wwhoneymoon, Instagram @worldwidehoneymoon, or email [email protected].

Hey enjoyed the Podcast. Thought I'd comment on your Vegas comments. I went with my wife and we had 0 expectations but we loved it. There's way more to do than gambling (which we also do none of): walking around, great shows, great hotels to see, great food. 3-4 days max. Give it a try! Mike

Thank you! And fair enough, we're always willing to give a place a try! I've heard great things about the food and the shows!
