  A voyage to Lilliput.
The first voyage is to Lilliput, where Gulliver is huge and the Lilliputians are small. At first the Lilliputians seem amiable, but the reader soon sees them for the ridiculous and petty creatures they are. Gulliver learns about the history , society, politics and economy of Lilliput. For many years, Lilliput has been at war with its sister island Blefusco over whether to break soft-boiled eggs at the big or little end. 

A voyage to Brobdingnag.
The second voyage is to Brobdingnag, a land of Giants where Gulliver seems as small as the Lilliputians were to him. Gulliver is afraid, but his keepers are surprisingly gentle. In the end, Gulliver is carried off by a giant bird and dropped into the sea, where he is rescued again by an English ship.

A voyage to Laputa.
Gulliver's third voyage is to Laputa. It is a giant floating island. The Laputans live by the rules of science and mathematics: even their bread and meat are carved into geometric shapes. In Laputa, the people are over-thinkers and are ridiculous in other ways. The men are so consumed in thought that they have servants , called flappers, to bring them out of a trance into conversation. Gulliver visits the Grand Academy, Swift’s parody of London’s Royal Society. There he meets men devoting their lives to absurd experiments such as extracting sunlight from cucumbers.

Flappers

His fourth voyage is to the land of the Houyhnhnms, who are talking horses endowed with reason. Their rational, clean, and simple society is contrasted with the filthiness and brutality of the Yahoos, beasts in human shape. Gulliver stays with the Houyhnhnms for several years, becoming completely enamored with them to the point that he never wants to leave.
