Want to see what your friends and family think about different travel Would You Rathers and dilemmas?
Whether you’re using this travel Would You Rather game as a hostel icebreaker, a way to pass time at an airport stopover or as a form of road trip entertainment, I’ve got loads of Would You Rather travel questions to keep you and your travel buddies busy.
I travel full-time and I (well I try!) do weekly Would You Rather poll series on my Instagram Stories, and my followers absolutely love it! I wake up to loads of messages with people trying to justify their choices or share their angst at having to choose one or the other.
I’ve added a number of non-travel Would You Rather questions in there too but only because they were the questions that got such a huge response, so they must be pretty polarising. Worth adding to your Would You Rather game for sure!
So here’s 110+ Would You Rather travel questions to ask your friends, family, colleagues, tour guides, travel companions and more. If you have any to add, let me know in the comments.
