IELTS Speaking Test
Have you ever travelled by boat?
Yes, I’ve been on a boat so many times. If my memory serves me well, the first time I ever set foot on a boat was in my first year of high school when my family went on a cruise in Ha Long Bay. It was a truly amazing experience for me.
Do you often travel by boat?
Well, not really often, maybe once or twice a year. I live in a mountainous area, so I only got on boats and yachts in my summer vacation when I go to the beach.
IELTS Speaking Test
Are boat trips popular in your country?
Yes, they are. My country has an extremely long coastline, so journeys at sea are really common. Tourists to any beach always have plenty of options of boats to get on, they are all affordable and offer wonderful sightseeing experiences.
Would you like to have your own boat?
I’d love to. I have been dreaming of owning a yacht ever since my first trip on water. It doesn’t have to be a huge boat, but it must be tough enough to withstand the most hazardous weather so that I don’t have to worry about storms when enjoying my journey.
If you had your own boat, what would you do with it?
I would go on a cruise whenever I had time. I often picture myself standing behind the wheel of my own boat, discovering the vast ocean and enjoying scenery that could take my breath away.
IELTS Speaking Test
Where in your country do people most often use/travel by boats?
Well, I suppose it is the central part of the country since this region is famous for the long coastlines, which are really convenient for water travel and fishing on boats as well.
Do many people in your country own their own boats?
I don’t think so. Boats are often used commercially so most boat owners are fishermen and people who use them for rent. Other than that, I don’t think there are many individuals in my country that are wealthy enough to afford to own a boat themselves.

SAMPLE ANSWER
I have made many trips by public transport. My father is an avid traveller and would take us to different parts of India once a year. We mostly travelled by trains, and I have fond memories of all these journeys. One journey I remember very well was a little different than our other trips.
It was the time when I went to my cousin’s wedding in Palanpur, Gujarat. My father has 4 brothers and they all live in Punjab except for one who lives in Gujarat. My uncle invited us to his son’s wedding in Gujarat, and we decided to go together. We booked our tickets. I was so excited to travel with all my cousins and relatives.

This was the first time we were all travelling together. We were 4 families and a total of 15 people. We decided to meet at my uncle’s hometown Ludhiana and were going to take the train from there.
When we reached at the platform, we came to know that train was going to come at another platform. We only had 10 minutes and we all started to run towards the other platform. We had so many suitcases and bags. We were trying to make sure that we all stayed together, and no one gets lost. We were laughing so hard by the time we reached our train.
We nearly missed our train. Finally, we got on board and settle in. It was a long journey and we spent most of talking, playing card games, board games, singing etc. One of uncles is a foodie and whenever the train would stop at a big station, he would get us something to eat. Street food at train stations is so yummy and every station had something unique to offer.
We spent the night in the train. No one wanted to sleep but all did sleep eventually. We reached Palanpur the next day. My uncle had come to pick us all up. I so excited to see him and my cousins. I was meeting them after so long.
