- TriviaLaura Gemser said that in every film she made with director Joe D'Amato, he tried many times to make her film hardcore porn scenes, but she always gave him a resounding "No!."
- GoofsObvious body double for the hardcore scene featuring Emanuelle at the Guru's orgy.
- Alternate versionsIn the television print, scenes of the Guru's "love lessons" are edited, eliminating male nudity. A scene in which one of the Guru's assistants is demonstrating women on the how-to's of pleasing their lovers is completely eliminated from the television print. When Emanuelle spies on the diplomatic "party" several shots are removed. Sensual encounters between Emanuelle and the truck driver, Emanuelle and Mary, and the scene of Emanuelle, Cora, and the Sheik are also edited. Several major cuts are made to the attack on Miss Ohio on the pier. In the television version, the beginning and end credits are scrolled over a black background, whereas in the theatrical and video versions, they are scrolled over a montage.

Featured review
Once again, Laura Gemser stars as sexy reporter Emanuelle, whose latest assignment takes her to India where a Tantric sex guru (George Eastman) claims to have discovered the secret to an everlasting climax. Although the guru proves to be a fake (he can't hold back forever with our heroine on the job), the feature leads the intrepid newswoman to discover the existence of a white slave ring, a scoop which takes Emanuelle bumping and grinding her way around the world, before returning to New York to find an even more shocking story involving top US politicians.
Although Joe D'amato's Emanuelle Around the World isn't as notorious as his earlier sleaze-fest Emanuelle in America, never quite managing to match that film's gruelling faux-snuff footage for sheer nastiness, it still packs a punch with hardcore sex footage, several non-explicit but still fairly harrowing gang-rapes, fun with fruit, and one particularly jaw-dropping moment in which a leering Chinese man introduces a bound, naked woman to his pets: a snake and a randy Alsation dog (Fido is so pleased to make her acquaintance, he gives her his bone).
Of course, sultry star Gemser never gets involved in any of the hardcore shenanigans herself, preferring only to actively partake in the usual assortment of simulated sex acts for which she is renowned: lesbianism, soft-core coupling and self-gratification. In addition to allowing Gemser to romp with almost everyone else in the film, the erratic story also provides D'amato with the opportunity to pad out his film with dull travelogue style footage and boring incidental characters (Italian exploitation favourite Ivan Rassimov is completely wasted in a pointless role). The result is a film with an unfocused and rather muddled style—easy-going and uneventful one moment, completely reprehensible the next—but one which still manages to be a fair bit of fun if you dig crazy 70s filth.
6.5 out of 10, rounded up to 7 for IMDb.
