Since 2020, the viewpoint of how many people live their lives across the world has shifted. Not only has working from home and nomad working environments become the norm for many global companies, reducing working hours and taking more vacations has also become a focus point for many. This is bringing many to explore the best travel destinations for 2024.
2024 offers some of the best opportunities to travel as the tourist market has built itself back up over the past couple of years. Many all-inclusive resorts have revamped their offerings with brand new and safer facilities, the world’s longest cruise launched, and more eco experiences and unique destinations have become available than ever before.
Travel Destinations to Consider in 2024
Whether you’re looking for a family vacation or a romantic getaway, these top travel destinations are sure to please every travel style.
Mexico
Now, we know that Mexico has been a popular travel destination for some time, but we’re not talking about Cabo or Cancun here. Mexico has long provided hit tourist hotspots with all-inclusive resorts, crystal-clear waters, and all the food you could dream of. However, not many tourists get to discover the true Mexico and tap into the rich culture and history of the country.
Since 2020, people have begun to get more adventurous, thus travel destinations deeper into the country are becoming more popular. If you’re looking to dig a little deeper into Mexican culture, head to Mexico City where there’s Templo Mayor (a 13th-century Aztec temple), the baroque Catedral Metropolitana de México of the Spanish conquistadors, and the Palacio Nacional, which houses historic murals by Diego Rivera.
For beaches that are yet undiscovered and filled with tourists, head to Zihuatanejo where you’ll find winding lanes lined with palm trees, waters teeming with marine life, and some of the best seafood restaurants around.
Monaco
Monaco is one of the hottest travel destinations to visit within the Cote d’Azur. Home to the Grand Prix, the Monte Carlo Casino, and the highest concentration of super yachts and supercars in the world thanks to its sovereignty and tax haven advantages, it doesn’t get more glamorous than a trip to this place.
One of the best things to do in Monaco is to hire a luxury car and drive around the weaving roads and picturesque hills that offer breathtaking views of the coast. If that isn’t enough, head over to the Old Town of Monaco. While it’s only 500 acres in size, it has some of the most concentrated history that will transport visitors back to the Stonegate.
If you’re looking for some excitement, head over to the lavish Monte Carlo Casino, one of the most iconic and luxurious casinos in the world. Not only was it popular with a certain 007 agent, but it still attracts some of the wealthiest and most talented casino players in the world and offers a great show nonetheless. There’s also the option for casino gaming from your hotel room if you’ve done enough exploring for the day. Quality online casinos like Virgin Games offer a whole variety of traditional and new casino games that incorporate the latest cutting-edge technologies.
Sifnos, Greece
The islands of Greece are a highly popular travel destination for families, couples and solo adventurists alike. If you’re looking to escape the summer crowds and tourist hotspots, Sifnos is so far a mainly undiscovered island for tourism, with most only celebrities visiting the island, including Tom Hanks, Dua Lipa, Margo Robbie, and Barack Obama. However, it’s best to begin making travel plans now as it won’t stay undiscovered for much longer.
Sifnos does not have an airport on the island and can only be reached by boat or ferry, therefore it’s an ideal location for those who prefer slow travel and unplanned adventures. The island is famous for its sea and farm-to-table cuisine, with famous chef Nikos Tselementes being born on the island in 1878. Tselementes is known to have internationalized Greek cuisine and has characterized many Greek cookbooks and other culinary traditions to this day.
Belfast, Northern Island
It may have a difficult past, however, in recent years Belfast has become an increasingly popular travel destination. As the filming location for the hit series Game of Thrones, Belfast was partly put on the map by this, however as 2024 marks the Year of Culture for the Northern Irish capital, there are some exciting plans in the works to celebrate the country’s unique culture and put some distance between the troublesome past and the present.
One of the city’s key focal points is the Titanic Experience Museum, which sheds new light on Titanic’s tragic story. There’s also a thriving music scene, with the city being named a UNESCO City of Music in 2021.
Charleston, SC
Charleston is a top travel destination on the East Coast where history, charm, and hospitality create an unforgettable Southern experience. Cobblestone streets wind through pastel-colored antebellum homes, showcasing the city’s rich heritage.
Its vibrant arts scene and world-class culinary offerings make it a cultural haven. From traditional Lowcountry cuisine to award-winning restaurants, every bite tells a story of the region’s flavors.
Nature lovers will find solace in Charleston’s pristine landscapes – from sun-kissed beaches to serene marshlands. But it’s the warmth and pride of Charleston’s people that truly define the city, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in its unique rhythm.
In Closing
Overall, 2024 is set to be an exciting year for travel. While it’s getting all the more expensive to travel long distances across the world, there’s no denying that the destination possibilities are growing and there are more undiscovered cultures than ever to be explored.
If you book in any of these above fine travel destinations, you’re sure to have an incredible experience.
