If there is one place that you want to visit in 2017, what would it be? If you are finding it hard to decide, keep on reading and be inspired to travel. In any of these destinations, you are bound to have the time of your life.
Namibia
This is an exotic destination with rugged beauty that is sure to leave any visitor in awe. It is still a relatively quiet country and you do not have to deal with a massive crowd to enjoy its best attractions. It has a beautiful desert, which is also a good place where you can try dune running. The wildlife is also diverse, as well as birdlife. Etosha National Park is one of the places that you should visit to have a close encounter with animals in the wild. Safaris are a great way to see animals in their natural habitats.
The Maldives
If your perfect idea of a holiday involves sun, sea, and sand, the Maldives should be on your bucket list. This is especially if you do not mind splurging on experiences. One of the biggest attractions in Maldives are the resorts themselves. The high-end resorts offer over-water accommodations. You will have your own bungalow that sits atop clear water. You can step out anytime for a dip. In some cases, your bungalow can even have its own pool, as well as round-the-clock butler service. There are also many places in Maldives where you can go diving or snorkelling, providing you with the opportunity to explore its underwater allure.
The UK
This is one of the quintessential countries in the bucket lists of most people. 2017 is the time to explore the UK. There are many places worth seeing, but if you are short of time, London should not be missed. This is where you can witness the life of the royal family and be up close and personal with some of the most iconic landmarks in the world. For a more relaxing vacation, the Cotswolds will be a good choice. Yorkshire, on the other hand, will be good for a foodie escape. The costal towns of Cornwall and Devon, meanwhile, will be perfect if you love the beach.
Philippines
Gifted with 7,107 islands, there is never a shortage of beauty that you can experience in the Philippines. It is known for the warm hospitality of its people, but even beyond such, you will have endless reasons to pay it a visit. The beaches of Palawan, Boracay and Cebu have been repeatedly recognised as amongst the best in the world. Whether you just want to go sunbathing or you want to try diving, you will have a long list of activities to keep you busy during your trip.
Cambodia
Angkor Wat is perhaps the most popular attraction in the country. This is part of a temple complex that will require several days for you to explore. Visiting such will remind you of the game Temple Run. Away from Siem Reap, there are also other places that you can visit. If you love the beach, two of the most popular destinations are Sinahoukville and Koh Rong. The latter is a remote island, so expect that developments are at minimum. It is also cheap, which makes it a popular destination for backpackers.
