2024…predicted to be a record-breaking travel year!
Here is my top 5 list of trending cities around the world. 

Adelaide written with koala image

Highlights: It’s the wine capital of Australia! Beyond the nearby wine country, Adelaide features stunning beaches, botanical gardens, seasonal events/festivals, an Aboriginal art museum, and a booming restaurant & bar scene.

Da Nang written with image of Golden Bridge

Highlights: Lots to explore here! Limestone caves, delicious street food, marble mountains, gorgeous overlooks, flower gardens, and wellness spas & resorts. And, oh yes, the bridges (Dragon Bridge, Han River Bridge, and of course, the Golden Bridge).

Highlights: For loungers and explorers alike! Walk Old Town, explore the San Felipe Castle, relax at the beach, island hop the Rosario Islands, and experience a mud volcano. Not to mention the fruit markets, fresh seafood, and award-winning espresso!

Highlights: Commonly referred to as ‘Spice Island’. Attractions include tours of spice plantations, local bazaars and food markets, tropical beaches, snorkeling & scuba diving, and giant tortoises. While there, learn about the island’s rich multicultural history.

Porto written with castle image next to it
