Ludicrous
such things are funny, absurd, or nonsensical. If someone says something silly or far-fetched, you could say "That's ludicrous!"
Ludicrous originally meant something that was funny, playful, or joking: a ludicrous comment was just a really funny comment. Over time, ludicrous took on a more negative flavor. Now a ludicrous statement might be funny, but it's also ridiculous, hard to believe, off the wall, or even stupid. When people say "That idea is ludicrous!" it usually means the idea could never happen: the notion is laughable. Saying Neil Armstrong was the third President would be a ludicrous statement.

ββπ PHRASAL VERBS ABOUT TRAVELLING
Contrary to the popular belief that phrasal verbs should not be used on IELTS, I am sharing here a nice verb list to enrich your vocabulary with when talking about journeys and travelling.
Remember, it is perfectly okay to use phrasal verbs in your writing or speaking on IELTS - they make your language richer and help sound like a native.
