best destinations to visit now this summer:
Mexico
With all that has been going on around us lately, it’s no surprise that Mexico has made the list of best places to visit this summer. This destination gives travelers like you and me a little bit of everything from affordable to ultra-luxury and from beach towns to old towns filled with colors and history. And let’s not forget spa and wellness options available almost everywhere, much needed after an overwhelming year. Add places like Cabo, Tulum, Playa del Carmen, and Mexico City to your list.
Dubai
Even though temperatures lead to blazing summers that’s no reason to skip out on Dubai summers. Besides being one of the safest places in the world, Dubai is also one of the best places to visit this summer. It’s the ultimate escape for a myriad of experiences that will leave you coming back again and again. Stay with history tours, jump from beach days to desert drives all in one ride, or shopping from morning to evening. Or simply take in the incredible architecture at every turn…truly beautiful and even better at night.
Jordan
I know you’ve seen it all over social media lately, I know you have. The beautiful natural rust temples with camels in front. I’d be remiss if Jordon was not on our list of best destinations to visit in summer this year. For many looking for bucketlist worthy or dream trips, Jordan should be at the top of your list. Visit one of the oldest cities, enjoy the Dead Sea, explore Petra, and of course, visit Wadi Rum enjoying the beautiful bubble accommodations.
Caribbean
Just like Mexico, the escape to peace is high on many travelers’ go-to list for summer 2022 and that’s why the Caribbean makes the list. Some repeat destinations we’re seeing include Jamaica, Aruba, and Turks & Caicos are the best places to visit this summer.
Charleston, SC
A top destination for families with kids of all ages, foodies, and even history lovers. Soak in the sun on the beach or by a pool with the family. Stop here if you’re a foodie looking to stop some of the new top restaurants from incredible chefs that take creativity to the next level. Enjoy the art and history scene at every turn. There’s something for everyone and great for quick getaways and why it’s one of the best destinations to visit in summer.
Iceland
If you haven’t been to Iceland yet it’s time to move it to the top of your list now. A destination that truly is beautiful all year round with amazing activities and tours to enjoy. Typically known for its winters, Iceland also has picturesque summers that are a must-see. If nature and adventure are high on your priorities, you’ll love it here.
Kenya
It’s no secret that we love a good safari! And that’s why Kenya makes our list for their African safari experiences. Leaving behind the stress of your reality to escape into nature and take in the amazing wildlife is refreshing. Making Kenya one of the best destinations to visit in summer.
Italy
Italy seems to be on the top of the list for those who have 10+ days of travel available to “slow travel” and explore notable places like the Amalfi Coast, Lake Como, Rome, Venice, Florence, Naples, and beyond. Italy tends to be a very popular destination in Europe and this year seems to be proving that once more. If you’re looking for a great place to visit this summer this may be the time to move Italy to the top of your list.
Paris
Finally, rounding out our list with the city of lights, Paris. Popular with couples for quick romantic weekend (or extended) trips, elevated girls trips, and even families. A classic destination that never seems to miss.
