About this word search

Toronto is the only Canadian city on this list, sharing the grid with places Canadians often travel to, from London and Paris to Lisbon and Rome. Cape Town and Sydney lie at almost exactly the same latitude in the southern hemisphere, a fact that surprises many people.

Cities can be flat, upright or slanted, but always spelled the right way round. RIODEJANEIRO and NEWYORK appear without spaces, and Rome and Cairo are short. Lisbon and London both begin with L, so check the second letter.

Members of a travel club can mark the cities they have visited and tell one story about each.

Ways to use this word search

  • With your coffee

  • On the go

    Slip a few printed sheets into your bag for the train, a waiting room or a weekend away. A pen is all you need, no screen required.

  • Puzzle together

    Bring the sheet to your book club, a night in with friends or a visit to your parents and see who finds every word first. Or play online and find out who is fastest.
