I’ve always loved a good pub quiz, but recently I’ve been doing about 3 quizzes a week. Once thing I’ve quickly learned is I’m quite good at general knowledge but I really know my travel trivia questions. Whenever there’s a travel round my eyes light up.

I always feel that being a travel blogger I’ve got a bit of an unfair advantage when it comes to travel trivia, but hey, I’m not complaining. One of the reasons I love travelling so much is learning about different cultures and societies. I’ve always said travelling is the best education in the world because you just learn so much.

While I’ve been locked up inside I wanted to come up with these travel quiz questions and answers to test your world knowledge.

If you fancy hosting your own virtual quiz then hopefully you can use some of these questions. First of all, let’s see how many you can get right!

Also, if you enjoy this quiz, then make sure you take my Countries Quiz Questions here. This is one of my most popular quizzes so see how you can do! And this one is a bit more niche, but try and take on my USA Trivia Questions too.

52 out of 55. Decent quiz, I enjoyed that. Thought the Hell pit was in Uzbekistan for some reason. I thought the island of spice was Cuba… Idiot Knew Callanish was Scottish but answered as Ireland when doing the quiz.

That’s a great effort Craig, well done!

I didn’t do too well, but enjoyed it a lot. Just one small point: Germany’s flag is made up of the colours red, black and gold, not yellow. It dates back to the Prussian resistance against Napoleonic rule. Volunteer soldiers wore black uniforms with red buttons and golden trimmings. The colours became a symbol of freedom and nation. Thanks for the great quiz.

Thanks for the comment Jean. I’m glad you enjoyed the quiz, and it’s always good to have a bit more background information on Germany!

@Jean, Good photograph took. Thank you.

Santosh Saha

That was really fun idea. Although I didn’t do well on your test but it was actually really fun to learn new things about the world.

Hope to see your coming blog. Thanks for the post.

@Pradip Karki, Send me more quizzes. Thank you.

17 thoughts on “ Where Should I Travel Quiz – Find Your Next Destination ”

It’s funny because Spain is my favorite country in the world I go there almost every weekend!! I enjoyed the Quiz.

Travel quizzes are such fun! According to this I’m supposed to be headed off to the wilds of Africa! I’ve only been there once and for way too short of a time. I’d love to see more. Maybe I should take the quiz’ advice?

OMG! Loved this quiz! I got Japan and that is one of my favorite destinations so the quiz was spot on! MY daughter loves Japan too as she loves Japanese cuisine and could seriously have sushi train every single day and its so catered for kids with all their cute toys.

Whoooo i got Namibia. I have never been anywhere in Africa. Maybe this is a sign a should consider it has my next trip 😉 Thanks fpr this fun quiz

Wow, I took the quiz, and it was fantastic. I should travel to Namibia according the result, but I don’t where was this place exactly located in the Map. It actually gets me curious and I should have a further research about Namibia and hopefully I can get there soon, If I get the chance. This is so cool actually, I find it very impressive. Thank you so much for this.

That was a fun quiz. I would never have thought of Kazakhstan for us but it isn’t bad. Thanks for pulling this together.

My result is Namibia, and I am planning a 3 months trip to Africa from September. It was a lot of fun answering the questions!

Got US West Coast RV run. Guess what? I did the whole US for 8 years!!!

How fun! Apparently, I need to go to Thailand 🙂 Never a bad idea!

Wow, this was so much fun. I tried twice with different options apparently I am even confused between choices in the same section lol.

Great quiz! Seems like I’m heading to Spain, but that’s just fine – I like Spain. Looking forward to some tapas and sangria.

There were a couple of questions that I answered with one of the possibilities although the others would have been just as suitable. However, the result – which is Thailand – is great! I had a great time in Thailand – much better than expected – and I intend to go back as soon as my daughter is ready to come with me (for – not strictly – once in my life no solo travel….)

I got Thailand, which is one of my favourite places ever!! Awesome quiz, it’s fun to see where you might get and how that lines up with where you’ve been!

What a great little travel quiz, I got Japan which is a place I really really want to go to. I did have more than one answer but went with my gut instead but it seemed to work. I will have to let you know when I am going to Japan. Now I must book that ticket

Awesome post!!! Really great. I got Thailand! I already visited this country and i loved it.

Definitely got me right with Spain 🙂

I took the quiz and it did absolutely nothing to help me. Says I should go to Cali. WTH! I live across the Colorado River from Cali, have ZERO desire to go there. How can they ask questions on a passport and suggest something like California. (eyeroll)
