<strong>Varied experiences:</strong> Some of the trips chronicled in the book are pretty costly, such as this charter superyacht trip to Antarctica. De Vleeschauwer tells CNN Travel this trip was one of his favorite ever experiences, but he wanted his book to feature a range of trips at a range of prices.
