Serbia
Often overlooked, Serbia is an undiscovered gem, boasting cultural history, tasty food, and a raving nightlife. Tourism for Serbia is due to rise this year as the well kept Balkan country gains popularity for its scenic views, city life, and cultural atmosphere.
Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is due to be a popular alternative for backpackers and holiday makers that usually enjoy the scenes of Vietnam, Bali and Thailand. The teardrop island off the southern coast of India is one of Asia’s best destinations for culture and experience with many wildlife interaction opportunities and relaxation locations. With its affordability and value for money, it is due to be a popular pick for many travellers in 2019.
Austria
Whether you’re searching for mountainous walks or city hustle and bustle, Austria has plenty to offer. Once home to Mozart, Beethoven, and Gustav Klimt, Vienna, Austria’s capital, is rich in both musical and creative culture. Whilst other towns and cities offer extraordinary scenery and breadth of activities.
Morocco
Morocco’s popularity is rising as travelers search for those Instagrammable sunrises and sunsets, cultural foods and scenes. With Ouarzazate as the “gateway to the Sahara” and Marrakech offering the chaos of the red city, there is much to entertain. Be careful not to go in the height of summer - the sun can be brutally hot!
Jordan
Full of hiking trails, archaeological sites and a wealth of history, Jordan is on many people’s hit list for this year’s destination visits. Jordan provides the ultimate desert experience with its red sandstone and rock faces and stargazing opportunities, it has been compared to Mars; a true ‘out of this world’ trip.
Northern Italy
Marking 500 years since the passing of Leonardo di Vinci, Northern Italy is set to be a destination of choice this year. Venice has increased in popularity over the years but many are set to travel to Lake Como to explore the dramatic natural scenes at the foothills of the Alps.
