I got this idea from the Which Fantasy World Would You Live In thread.

If you could travel with one fantasy group from any series, which group would it be? Some examples are the group in the Belgariad, the company in the Lord of the Rings, Rand and co in Wheel of Time, etc.

I think my pick would actually be the Dragonlance Chronicles characters. While they faced their share of danger, it would be fun to spend part of the journey traveling with Flint, Tas, Tanis, Raistlin, Tika (woohoo!) and Caramon. Oh, and i would want to be traveling with them while Fizban was with them.
 
I chose the Land as the place I'd want to live in, sooooo... I suppose the group I'd want to travel with would have to include Saltheart Foamfollower and some giants, a few of the Bloodguard and their Lords, and some Ranyhyn. Including Vain and Nom and an Elohim would be a cool bonus.
 
Although I lost interest in the series, the initial Wheel Of Time group would be my choice. Maybe after Thom joined up with them. Or maybe Loial.
 
If I had to pick one fellowship already formed , and not my custom made motley crew, first pick is the City Guard from Ankh Morpork:
- Sam Vimes
- Angua
- Carrot
- Nobby
- Detritus, et all.
This is no joke : these guys could tackle anything from angry gods to chemically unstable dragons, and party afterwards better than paris hilton.

For second choice it will be the guys discussing philosophy around the campfire in R Scott Bakker Prince of Nothing books. I can't remember all their names right now, but they are the friends of Drusas Achamian.

Probably Sparhawk and Co, from Eddings' The Tamuli, because Kalten, Tynian and Ulath are such a bunch of funny buggers that I'd probably be in stitches the whole time.
 
it would have to be Fitz and Nighteyes from the Farseer trilogy for me......along wiht the Fool if he cared to join :D
 
I'd say Fitz and Nighteyes, followed by the Belgariad group, followed by Belgarath and the other original disciples, followed by Drusas and Kellhus....I like a lot of different groups. They'd all be fun to travel with.
 
Also, Threetrees, Dogman, Black Dow & crew, from Abercrombie's First Law Trilogy. A great bunch of good ole boys!!!
 
This is a hard question.

probably the fellowship of the ring. That bunch is so iconic.

perhaps the travel companions of Severian from Wolfe's Book of the new sun. for the girls he meets, hehehe.
 
The Bridgeburners in Malazan in their halcyon days though I'd run off and join the North men From the First Law Trilogy when things got really dire :D
