Traveling to Uganda, which took like over 20 hours for the full journey. We had to fly from belfast to londo, to dubai, to ethiopi before arriving in uganda, and then like a 6 hour bus journey when we got there.

Probably a 24 hour journey this summer. Was only from Waterford to Bournemouth, but I had to go by trains and boat and just took awfully long!

Around 5-6 hours to London by coach... it was ridiculously early, we were at Leeds Coach Station waiting and this drunk guy basically acted as my dad's best friend. He also took an interest in my dad's and Max's shoes. and we managed to get sat together luckily. The way back was worse as I told lawrawrrr; I woke up at 3/4am that day had little to eat, boiling hot. We got the coach back around 5/6pm that evening, around a quarter of the way back we get an announcement that the bus is going for its MOT????????? Which coach goes for an MOT or service in the middle of a trip? Had to tell Max and my sister who were pretty much asleep, stopped off in Mansfield I think it was to change coaches and got home around midnight... I did get to go in the Buckingham Palace Fountain though.

Great Western trains are a pain in the ass hahaa, mine between Scotland and Bristol was delayed by 3 hours and it was just so .. urghhh. I'm travelling back to scotland in just over two weeks and i am not looking forwards to it at all.

Oh my, I did 8 hours from London to Newcastle which I am doing at New Years and I thought that was bad enough! I literally went insane on that coach, luckily this time I have a midnight coach so I will sleep the whole way there.

Just under 60 hours in total (seriously).

When the volcano erupted in Iceland we were stuck in Florida and flights were severely delayed but I had an exam so HAD to get back. We drove from Florida to Texas (which took us 2 days as we stopped overnight, around 15 hours total driving time), then flight from Houston to home, with layovers at Newark and another airport I can't remember now, got back to London then 2 hour drive home as TRAFFIC. Was literally the nastiest journey ever - I hate travelling!

The longest continuous journey I've ever done is probably the 9 hours it took me once to get home from here - gonna be taking that same journey later this month! :'(

Inseriousity.

Around 10-15 hours on a coach.
It was horrible! We left at around 7am. Took us 2 hours to get to the Euro tunnel. Then the train was delayed so we was sat in a coach on the train with like 24 other people and because you can't turn the engine on we couldn't have any air conditioning. It was delayed for 3 hours then the train finally set off not too sure how long that took us but by the time we got to England and had set off again it took us to get back to where I was going it was around 10pm.

It was rather exhausting and I am not sure I'd want to do that again.
