US edition of Once While Travelling: The Lonely Planet Story. The New York Daily News once described Tony and Maureen Wheeler as "the specialists in guiding weird folks to weird places." And thanks to their relentless spirit of adventure and thirty years of travel publishing, they've inspired generations of weirdos and not-so-weirdos to get out there.

Unlikely Destinations: The Lonely Planet Story traces The Wheeler's personal story of the often bumpy evolution into the world's largest independent travel publishing company. Equal parts autobiography, corporate history and travel book, Unlikely Destinations is a unique story of a unique couple and the rise of an extraordinary business.

Note: This edition available for shipping to the US and surrounding regions only.
