A man who traveled to nine countries on four continents in less than a week has set a new Guinness World Record for the fastest time to visit the New Seven Wonders of the World, according to travel technology company Travelport..

British traveler and author Jamie MacDonald set a new record using only public transport to visit the New Seven Wonders of the World in six days, 16 hours and 14 minutes, according to the company that planned the itinerary, and said it was confirmed by Guinness World Records, according to to USA Today.

Jimmy, known as the man of adventure, equipped with a backpack on his shoulders, embarked on the trip of a lifetime to visit the Great Wall of China, the Taj Mahal, the ancient city of Petra, the Colosseum in Rome, Christ the Redeemer of Rio de Janeiro, Machu Picchu and Chichen Itza.

The new seven wonders of the world are not related to the UNESCO list

The New Seven Wonders of the World was a special initiative launched by Bernhard Weber in 2000 to “encourage citizens around the world to choose by popular vote seven new wonders of the world,” according to the World Heritage Convention.

There is no connection between the sites inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List and Weber’s campaign. Since ancient times, lists announcing various “Wonders of the World” have been compiled to highlight breathtaking sites..

Pizza in Rome was McDonald’s only opportunity to eat off the plane while traveling. Overall, he took 13 flights, 16 taxi rides, nine buses, and four trains, covering a total of 22,856 miles.
