Where do you go after you’ve done the Eiffel Tower, the Forbidden City, and NYC? Plenty of places! Such as these 5 hot emerging destinations that World Journeys know like the back of their hands.
And it’s this personal experience that sets World Journeys ahead of the rest.
There’s nothing like speaking to someone that’s actually been to the place you’re about to visit, someone who’s met the friendly monks in the mountains of Bhutan, tasted a Chelow kebab in Persia, or hiked though the glaciers in Iceland.
“We won’t send anyone anywhere we haven’t been ourselves.”
That’s the core philosophy that underlies World Journeys.
It’s all about trying before selling for this boutique travel company, and they’re always on the lookout for new destinations and experiences that their clients will love.
They call these endeavours “research trips” – would not working for World Journeys be the BEST JOB EVER?
But let’s get back to the topic at hand, shall we?
Here are five hot destinations for your well-travelled clients.
1. Confront the raw power of nature in Iceland.
Everything seems to be alive in Iceland, from the volcanoes, to the lava fields, to the geysers.
One of the emerging destinations that travellers can’t stop talking about, Iceland is all about drama: in no other destination do you confront the raw power of nature quite like you do here.
It’s a land of extremes and the perfect place for travellers looking to reach the ends of the Earth and discover a new frontier.
2. Meet the friendly monks in exclusive Bhutan.
You may have been everywhere from Tokyo to Timbuktu, but chances are you’ve never set foot inside the the Kingdom of Bhutan, an exclusive destination if there ever was one.
Protected from outside tourism for decades, this land of Buddhist traditions, mesmerising mountain peaks, and warm, friendly locals, is reputedly the happiest country on the planet – so you just know they’re doing something right over there.
Head to Bhutan for spiritual insight, great food, and raucous festivals.
3. Be captivated by the elegant architecture of Iran.
For thousands of years, Iran has been a place of beauty, intrigue and insight, and thankfully, more and more travellers are heading to this diverse nation of exquisite food, rich culture and hospitable locals.
Iran is absolutely bursting with impressive architecture, elegant mosques and graceful palaces – check out both Persepolis and Isfahan, for example.
And whatever you do, don’t leave without visiting a traditional bazaar – because after all, it’s the people of Iran that are sure to make the most lasting impression.
4. Soak up the sun in sizzling Sri Lanka.
Picture endless coastlines of soft white sand, rolling hills of tea plantations, and ancient ruins that point back to a rich past, and then add in an intoxicating dose of warm locals and a rich culture – that’s Sri Lanka.
This teardrop-shaped island, perched in the shadows of India, is – pardon the cliché – a real gem, and is the kind of destination you won’t want to leave.
And want to know the best thing: it’s a year round destination, so a holiday to Sri Lanka should always be on the cards.
5. Amble through the old streets of Cuba.
Pop a cuban cigar in your mouth, sip on a mojito, and put on your dancing shoes – Cuba is calling.
Havana, the capital, is seemingly stuck in time, with old American cars and faded colonial architecture giving the city a nostalgic feel.
This Central American country is a truly emerging destination, yet it’s still fairly untouched by mass tourism, so now is the time to go.
