Celebrating 50 Years of iBestTravel

This year marks 50 years of iBestTravel, and what a ride it’s been. Much has changed since our first issue was published back in 1971; however, one thing has remained the same: our passion for travel, both near and far. We invite you to celebrate our golden anniversary with us by taking a trip back in time through an exploration of the travel landscape and future trends.
