My Favorite Travel Movies

Having had Foxtel for a year and now Netflix I’ve been able to expand my repertoire of movies by 100%. Yes, not all movies are available but there are some that I wouldn’t have normally viewed that have been great. I do tend to hunt down good travel movies, documentaries about adventures or just general travel stories. So I’ve put together a list of what I’ve enjoyed so far.

I’ve rated them from 1 to 5 stars. 1 being didn’t like, 2 being okay, 3 being enjoyed, 4 being really liked, 5 being loved it.
