Africa, America, Australia and Eurasia.

But I doubt that the full costs of all of them is available. See link below for more information on all of them.

Originally, it cost $1,000 for first class if you were riding the Transcontinental railroad from New York to San Francisco in 1865. It took multiple months to make the trip.
