Buenos Aires may be one of the most beautiful cities in South America, with its Haussmann-inspired boulevards à la parisienne, lush urban parks, and unrivaled gastronomy, but let’s face it, it’s sort of yesterday’s news. It’s been covered to death by most major travel publications, and even if you haven’t been to BA yourself, we’re …

We all know (and love) Mexico for its paradisaical Caribbean coast and with world-class resorts with the kind of five-star amenities you’d think would only be reserved for the elites, but lately, we’ve been craving more. Don’t get us wrong, we’re definitely not ones to think we’re too intellectual, and above everyone else to look down …

Forget San Miguel de Allende. This winter, travelers are trading the crowded cobblestones for a misty mountain town that feels more like Europe than Mexico. Mexico is famous for its colonial magic, but there is one historic gem that remains criminally overlooked. It isn’t just another Spanish colonial town—it is a bizarre and beautiful historical …

If you typically plan your trips around immersive cultural experiences, and you’re a History aficionado, chances are you’re already making plans to cross the pond—again—this winter, no matter how gray and awfully-cold Europe may be at the minute.

Already feel the winter blues settling in with the gray skies, temperatures in the low 20s, and lack of sunlight? The Midwest and its grand lakes and lush nature may well be stunning in summer, but if you live anywhere near the Chicago Metropolitan Area, you know January hits like a brick. Thankfully there’s always …

Move over, Mediterranean. The “Hawaii of Europe” is officially taking over. If you are looking for the continent’s best winter sun, you might be looking in the wrong place. Not Barcelona and its sun-drenched, palm-lined oceanfront promenade. Not Nice and the scenic Promenade des Anglais, straddling the turquoise Mediterranean. Most definitely not the overpriced, yesterday’s-news …

Forget Cancun and its glitzy (but jam-packed) Hotel Zone, Puerto Vallarta and its infamous party scene, and Los Cabos’ golden-sand beaches and luxurious resorts: The best beach destination in Mexico this year, as elected by voters of the Food and Travel Reader Awards, is none other than Puerto Escondido. As the name suggests, a true …

From Madrid’s elegant fin de siecle boulevards, to Barcelona’s Gaudí-signed cityscape, all the way down to Costa Del Sol’s sun-drenched beaches, Spain has a gazillion wonders that will keep you coming back year after year, after year. It’s no wonder it’s the second-most visited country in the world, after neighboring France, but popular as it …

Forget Cancun’s jam-packed Hotel Zone, Puerto Vallarta’s riotous nightlife, and even Cabo’s rapidly polished-up beachfront. There is a fourth coastal spot trending in Mexico at the moment, and if you happen to be hunting for fewer crowds and prices that won’t break the bank, this might just be your ticket. The often-overlooked capital of the …

France may be the most visited country in the world, playing host to over 100 million guests annually, and listen, we get it: From the elegant Haussmann-designed boulevards of Paris, down to Nice’s scenic Promenade des Anglais, stretching along a turquoise Mediterranean, there’s plenty of Old World charm to be admired in the Land of …

When you think of Europe, chances are it’s Paris and its iconic Eiffel Tower that pop to mind, or perhaps London and the iconic red telephone boxes, or perhaps, if you’ve taken a liking for going off the beaten path a little, Croatia and its postcard-ready pebbly beaches straddling the Adriatic. That’s the Old Continent …

With its fascinating ancient ruins that have survived for millennia, stunning cities that look like open-air museums, and incredible cuisine, Italy is on the bucket list of millions of travelers headed for the Old Continent in 2026.
