As a noun, 'travel' refers to the activity in general and is generally used as an uncountable noun.

'Travel' can also be used as a verb and refers to the activity of moving from one place to another. Generally, 'travel' is used as a general verb and is rather formal. People often use the mode of transport to express this activity.
travel还可以用作动词,指的是从某地到另一地的行为。通常travel这个动词很正式,人们更愿意用交通工具来表达这种行为。

Sometimes, 'travel' is also used as a countable noun in the plural form. In this case, it is often used in the sense that someone has been to many different places during one longer journey. This usage is also rather formal, and isn't likely to be used much in everyday speech.
有时候,travel也用作可数名词,只用复数形式。在这种情况下,通常是表示一个人在一次长途旅行中到达过很多地方,这种用法也同样很正式,不经常用于生活口语中。
