SOUTH AFRICA (???) - EGYPT (Cairo) - UK (Birmingham)

I'm thinking i'll fly to munich, then train to moscow, then fly to delhi,
fly to bejing, fly to hong kong, fly to bangkok, fly to melbourne, fly to
auckland, fly to suva, fly to lima, train to brazil fly to SA, fly to
egypt
and then fly back to the UK.

I'm estimating about a 2 year round-trip, working as and when I need/want
to.

Can anyone give me a rough budget and also point me in the right direction
as to where there are savings to be made?


How long is a piece of string? Two different people could spend hugely
different amounts on doing that trip. However, you might want to look at a
round the world air ticket. They are usually quite good bargains and allow
you to make lots of stops on the way. The main proviso is that you have to
keep moving in roughly the same direction, so you may need to visit Africa
on the way out, rather than on the way back.
