You’ve probably heard of Mallorca in Spain, with its epic coastal capital, dominated by a fortress-like Gothic cathedral, and beaches with a coastline fringed by turquoise calas. Hundreds of thousands of people flock to Mallorca every year for their sunny break, especially Americans for the last 4 or 5 years, thanks to the launch of a new …

Morelia probably isn’t the first destination that comes to mind when you think of Mexico, especially with Cancun’s world-famous turquoise waters and luxury resorts, or Mexico City’s ornate architecture and ancient pyramids. The capital of the central Mexican state of Michoacán, it is one of the country’s oldest and arguably prettiest cities, though it’s historically …

With all those viral videos on TikTok showing a side of Europe you never thought possible before, one with pickpockets running amok in the streets of London, and trash and graffiti everywhere in a once-shiny, glamorous Paris, you might be wondering whether there’s still any safe haven left to the Old Continent we all knew …

Most people planning a European getaway will spend hours on end working out the best, most convenient way to get from London to Paris, then potentially Rome, and time permitting, a final sunny stretch in either Madrid or Lisbon before they hop on their flight home. All these European cities are popular for a reason, …

With mandatory fingerprinting set to come into play, the long wait lines, and the usual July travel chaos, European airports are the last place you want to be this upcoming summer. Lucky for you, it’s not like you necessarily need to fly places, going around the Old Continent, necessarily on that country-hopping adventure. After Paris–Berlin, …

Forget Barcelona and Madrid: if you’ve been planning a culture-filled getaway to Spain this year, those are no longer your only two options for arrival airports. It’s literally in our name, but if you’re anything like us, you’re anything but thrilled about the prospect of hitting up an overtouristed destination literally everyone has been to, …

Soft pistachio gelato on the stone pier, gentle Mediterranean waves caressing your feet, bumpy Vespa rides through winding cobbled lanes so narrow opposite wrought-iron balconies practically touch each other… and of course, ancient cities that are effectively open-air museums: Nothing screams spring—or should we say… early summer—quite like Italy. Still, given all the social media …

When you think of Greek islands, the first image your brain conjures is probably Santorini’s blue church domes and caldera views, or maybe Mykonos’ iconic string of windmills on a hill and colorful harborside houses. The powerhouse duo may be Greece’s top two most popular destinations, but if you’re asking us, they’re far from being …

I don’t know if it’s just me, but haven’t all these overhyped, over-Instagrammed, rinse-and-repeat European capitals been flogged to death? Whether it’s the ‘gorgeous, aesthetic’ Haussmann streets of Paris, the ‘open-air museum’ that is Paris, or the ‘Victorian-elegance’ of London, it’s a movie we’ve seen (quite literally) a million times before. Everyone loves to joke …

Europe has the medieval charm, Latin America wins by a mile for gastronomy and nature, and there’s no denying Africa’s maze-like medinas and epic safaris are breathtaking, but let’s be real for a sec. When you think of all those beautiful temples beneath a blossoming canopy of cherry trees, sprawling metropolises that look like they …

A cheeky Aperol Spritz and carbonara pasta on a terrace overlooking that imposing Duomo, the winding cobbled lanes and beautiful pastel buildings that look like a movie set, and that glittery, azure Mediterranean to top it off: Southern Italy is nothing short of the quintessential Mediterranean experience, and there’s nowhere we’d rather kick off our …

Mexico’s impressive colonial heritage may be well-documented, and it’s a huge reason millions of tourists flock here every year—other than, of course, your standard Mayan ruins and Caribbean resorts.
