Travels is a 1988 nonfiction book by Michael Crichton that focuses on his travels, both physical and spiritual, including out-of-body experiences, astral projection, and fortune-telling. It also tells of his time at Harvard Medical School.[1][2]

According to Crichton, he first had the idea of the book in 1981 but did not start writing it until January 1986. It was his most autobiographical work.[1]

Newsday wrote "Crichton's tales are written in a light, easy to read, anecdotal style."[3]
