A long and extensive trip that goes across several continents and often has the goal of circling the earth once.
Nach dem Universitätsabschluss erfüllten sie sich den Traum von einer einjährigen Weltreise.
After graduating from university, they fulfilled their dream of a year-long world trip.
The word is built very logically and consists of 'die Welt' (the world) and 'die Reise' (the trip/journey). So it literally describes a trip around the world.
Eine Reise um die ganze Welt ist ein großer Traum für viele Menschen.
A trip around the whole world is a big dream for many people.
With 'Weltreise' (world trip), the verbs 'machen' (to make/do), 'planen' (to plan), or 'antreten' (to begin/set out on) are often used. You can also say that you 'auf Weltreise geht' (go on a world trip).
Nächstes Jahr wollen wir endlich unsere geplante Weltreise machen.
Next year we finally want to take our planned world trip.
When someone is currently taking a world trip or is beginning one, the preposition 'auf' is often used. The fixed expressions are 'auf Weltreise sein' (to be on a world trip) or 'auf Weltreise gehen' (to go on a world trip).
