This week we want to know all about the most unusual travel experiences you’ve engaged in. Perhaps you took part in a bizarre marathon, found yourself the only tourist in a remote village or festival, or you could be on a personal mission – like visiting every KFC in the world! However odd it may be, we want to know the details.

Send us your tips via GuardianWitness – including as much detail as you can (with website and prices if possible) and you could win a £200 hotel voucher.

The best tips will appear in print in next weekend’s Travel section and the winner, chosen by Tom Hall of Lonely Planet, will receive a £200 hotel voucher from Hotels.com, allowing you to stay in more than 260,000 places worldwide. Submit your tip by clicking the blue button and using the text tab.

You’re welcome to add a photo if you own the copyright to it – but it’s the text we’ll be judging!

Your tip should be around 100 words long. Terms and conditions.

Closes 20 January 10am GMT
