Travel Treat Around The World – What You Should See Next

The joy and excitement of travelling the world and discovering new experiences simply can’t be beaten; from priceless insights to precious memories, rounding out your life with some unforgettable moments is what it’s all about. In this article we’ll be highlighting just some of the must-see destinations and unique experiences around the world.

Exploring natural wonders

The Northern Lights in Iceland

It’s not guaranteed, but if you happen to be in Iceland between late August and mid-April, you’re giving yourself the best chance of viewing the aurora borealis. This natural light display is well worth the late night and the neck ache from looking up into the sky; beautiful colours dance before you, beating anything a photograph can capture. 

The Great Barrier Reef in Australia

Located off the coast of Queensland, in northern Australia, the Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest collection of coral reefs, providing a home to 400 types of coral, 1,500 species of fish and 4,000 types of molluscs. Here, visitors can dive and snorkel as part of organised expeditions, allowing you to see the underwater beauty up close. 

The Grand Canyon in the USA

No doubt you’ve seen photos of it, but they’re nothing compared to the majesty of this geological wonder, located in Arizona. If you like your hiking, there are several trails that take in viewpoints, or take the Grand Canyon Railway to really immerse yourself in the experience. 

Unique and Unforgettable Experiences

Dinner show in Dubai

Dubai is a famously vibrant destination, and definitely one that should be on your list if you love the finer things in life. Nothing says indulgence like a dinner show in Dubai, which blends fine dining with live entertainment that can range from singing to dancing, and even theatrics. 

Hot Air Balloon Ride Over Cappadocia, Turkey

Cappadocia is a landscape unlike any other, formed through thousands of years’ worth of volcanic eruptions, which leaves these ‘chimney’ type structures that are best appreciated from the air. It’s not a plane or a helicopter that you should choose though; the transport of choice at Cappadocia is the hot air balloon, and if the stunning landscape wasn’t enough to wow you, the sight of many hot air balloons over it will be! 

Wildlife safari in Kenya

Seeing creatures you can only spot in certain parts of the world is one of the beauties of travelling, and it’s well worth making time to see these properly when you’re in somewhere like Kenya, home to popular safari destinations such as Maasai Mara. This nature reserve is home to lions, leopards, cheetahs, and elephants, amongst many other species, and offers an opportunity to see these awesome creatures in their natural habitat. 

Relaxation and luxury

Overwater bungalows in the Maldives

Be at one with the clear blue ocean, and with yourself, at the one of the various overwater bungalow resorts in the Maldives, which offer pure relaxation, and largely unbroken sunshine. This unforgettable accommodation and those dreamy views can be found at resorts such as Emerald Maldives Resort & Spa, Siyam World Maldives, and Sun Siyam Iru Fushi.

Spa retreat in Bali, Indonesia

Bali has become a wellness destination for many; with a tropical climate and stunning beaches, it gives you a chance to fully switch off from your day-to-day life, and enjoy activities such as yoga, and treatments like massages and skin therapies. Choose from wellness retreats that are organised for you, or simply stay at one of the many spa hotels. 

Luxury train journey on the Orient Express

The Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is the very definition of opulence, which transports you across Europe by rail in elegant and pristinely-appointed cabins. Onboard amenities and experiences that create such a special experience alongside the places you pass through, which can include London, Venice, Paris, and Istanbul.
