When I was 9, I was doing a LOT of car travel around the US. But the time I was 15, I had been to all but 7 states. It was fantastic to see the wonders of our wonderful country and how different every mini culture is. BUT, it can be awfully boring in between stops. I also really enjoyed Hawaii at 9 and experiencing how different each of the 4 islands we visited were.
My first trip outside the US (other than Canada and Mexico) was to Peru. I wouldn't recommend that to a 9 year old
Favorite places as an adult - Florence, Paris, Tokyo, Berlin, London, Switzerland.....I love to travel so I can't really say I have been disappointed in many places I've been.
Bucket list - Turkey, Iceland, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, Prague, Morocco, and the list goes on. I better not kick the bucket any time soon.
