Product Details
🐸 HOW TO PLAY
Track your dream trips. In Globetrotting, each player plans three major trips to take over the course of a year. The goal is to accomplish as many of the goals on your Bucket List as possible, without going over budget.
Choose your destinations. Each round, three new destinations are revealed, and all players simultaneously choose one to include in one of their journeys. The route is plotted directly on your personal globe, which becomes a visual diary of your adventures.
Manage costs and distances. The longer the flights, the higher the travel costs. Using the globe's integrated circular ruler, calculate the kilometers traveled and pay the corresponding price: it's important to strike a balance between faraway destinations and a limited budget.
Travel with your buddies. In addition to your personal goals, you have shared Travel Buddy Goals with your neighbors at the table: if you manage to meet in the same city at the same time, you both earn extra points. But be careful, it requires coordination and a touch of diplomacy.
Race for big goals. While everyone fills their maps with routes, they also compete to complete the shared Global Objectives. In the end, the winner is the one who has managed to transform their travels into unique memories, optimizing distances, budgets, and encounters around the world. 🌍✈️

Globetrotting
A shared travel experience, to be enjoyed with pen, paper, and a spirit of adventure.
An island, fruits to gather and ships to satisfy… before others do.
Globetrotting – Three Trips, a Year, and Too Many Dreams to Fit In
Three trips, just one year, and the world to cross with a ruler in hand.
Globetrotting isn't just a race to see who can visit the most countries, but an adventure made of planning, routes drawn on your personal map, and goals to check off your bucket list.
Each stop you choose brings you closer to the trip of your dreams... but be careful about your budget, your friends, and your chance encounters!
A game that lets you travel without moving from the table
Created by Jeff Chin and Andrew Nerger , Globetrotting is a board game for 1-4 players where each player plans three great intercontinental voyages by drawing routes on their own personal globe.
The mechanics of line drawing, secret objectives, simultaneous selection and distance management make each turn a small challenge between efficiency and the desire to explore.
The presence of shared objectives with your tablemates adds a touch of cooperation/competition, while the personal bucket list guides your choices.
With a running time of approximately 30 minutes , Globetrotting is the perfect game for those who dream of endless journeys and love to optimize every route like a professional travel agent.
We played it… and it made us want to pack our bags 🐸
Globetrotting is light, colorful and surprisingly smart .
Plotting routes on the physical globe is fun and immersive , and we found ourselves commenting on real destinations as if we were actually booking a flight.
The best twist? Shared goals: they force you to spy on (and imitate) others' routes.
If you’re looking for a smart, accessible, and unconventional travel game , Globetrotting deserves a place… in your suitcase.
