Everything from 1990’s
This category include trips in the 1990’s, more precisely from 1990 through 1999. The category works in combination with the travelogue category. Seek them out in the Destinations menu. Posts with photo galleries from these years are also included in this category. World Heritage Sites are included if the first visit to it was during this decade, irrespective of it being a world heritage or not at the time.

Travel back in time with Sandalsand. Cut straight to all journeys from the 1980’s, 1990’s, 2000’s, 2010’s, 2015’s and 2020’s.
