Have you ever visited one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World?
Why people ask this
This question works because the yes-or-no split always surprises the room — someone answers in a way nobody expected, and the conversation starts from there. Travel questions are bait for stories — every yes is a country, a disaster, or a person met by accident, and the answers tend to outlive the trip itself. On have.you, this question draws players from every kind of setting — parties, road trips, dinners, late-night calls — which is why the same question reads differently every time. The interesting part is rarely the answer itself; it is the follow-up, the story behind the yes, or the surprised reaction when someone answers the opposite of what everyone expected.
