These emerging destinations should be on your travel list in 2018. Get there before the rest of the world cottons on!<\/p>\n

There\u2019s something about discovering a place before it\u2019s been seen by the whole world. It feels as though you\u2019ve had a real experience, gone somewhere which has challenged you, and it\u2019s a strange thing \u2013 you want everyone to go so that they can share your wonder and excitement, but you\u2019re still a little bit possessive over your hidden gem. If you went to Croatia in 2005 before it became popular and kept singing the praises of its bright blue waters and vibey cities, or were traipsing the streets of Vietnam when your best friends had no idea what Pho was, you\u2019re probably on the lookout for the \u2018next big thing\u2019 destination. Or perhaps you keep missing the boat and finally want to go somewhere before it becomes part of the well-trodden tourist track, and experience a new country without hearing British, American and Aussie accents flying through the air.<\/p>\n

Here are our top 2018 destinations \u2013 these spots are on the rise, so you better get there fast if you want to catch them in their prime. Come 2019 or 2020, flights will be more expensive and your favourite little hostel might just have been replaced by a five-star resort.<\/p>\n

Albania<\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nAlbania is one of the Balkan countries which hasn\u2019t quite ridden the wave of popularity that some of the other nations are starting to enjoy. The Balkans in general are on the up for their fabulous weather, natural beauty and amazing food \u2013 but one extra plus point of Albania is that South Africans don\u2019t need a Schengen visa – although if you are in possession of a Schengen, UK, or USA visa you may use that to enter Albania. If not, you can apply to get a visa only for Albania, at a cost of just 25 Euros. If you\u2019re heading to London, Albania is the perfect addition for a long weekend without an extra visa.<\/p>\n

What does it have to offer? Well, aside from deep blue lakes, green-capped mountains, rippling forests and picturesque beaches with perfect sunsets, it\u2019s also dirt cheap compared to most of Europe. While prices are always fluctuating with our exchange rate, think along the lines R200 for a hotel room or R80 for a three course meal (and trust us when we say Albanian food is gooood!). Do we need to continue..?<\/p>\n

Jordan<\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nFamed for the ancient sandstone city of Petra, Jordan is so much more than just that. A safe haven in the Middle East, Jordan is the place to go for stunning desert landscapes, historical monuments and ruins. The conflict across neighbouring countries has led to a huge decline in tourism to Jordan, but rest assured that Jordan is completely safe and unbelievably friendly. While you can\u2019t help but worry about the declining tourism industry, it does mean that you can see mesmerising sights like Petra in near solitude. Whatever you do, don\u2019t limit yourself to Petra. Float in the salty water of the Dead Sea, see the stark granite cliffs of Wadi Rum against the barren desert sand and explore the many castles on offer across the nation. Don\u2019t forget to sample the food, which is traditional Middle Eastern fare similar to Lebanon and Turkey. You only need a visa upon arrival if you hold a South African passport and\u2026wait for it\u2026it\u2019s FREE.<\/p>\n

Sri Lanka<\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nWe don\u2019t know anybody who has ever come back from Sri Lanka and not loved it. You can often pick up flight to Sri Lanka for around R7000, and the different regions means there\u2019s a climate to suit everyone \u2013 but avoid the monsoon season! There are wonderful beaches, lush tea plantations ancient temples and Buddhist statues, dense forests, and more culture than you can shake a stick at. Plus, it\u2019s affordable and is a real foodie destination. If you\u2019re a wildlife fan, you can go on safari \u2013 they don\u2019t always compare to our local safari experiences, but they often are a bit cheaper and there are plenty of elephant sightings to be had. Otherwise, there\u2019s whale and dolphin sightings aplenty. The adventure junkies are well catered for too, with everything from surfing to white water rafting and diving among shipwrecks and coral reefs. We don\u2019t want to say it\u2019s the new Thailand but\u2026it\u2019s the new Thailand.<\/p>\n

Honduras<\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nHonduras is a smaller cousin to its South American neighbours of Brazil, Argentina and Peru \u2013 but it certainly isn\u2019t lacking any of their character. If you\u2019ve seen the crystal clear beaches of Belize, then all you need to know is that those in Honduras\u2019 Bay Islands are even better. The country\u2019s villages aren\u2019t to be missed either, and a stroll around the streets will reveal loads of pretty colonial-style buildings. Cusuco National Park is an absolute paradise for hikers and nature enthusiasts, reachable only by 4×4. You will need a private guide, a camera, and serious appreciation for pristine, undisturbed hiking trails to enjoy it \u2013 but it is completely worth it.<\/p>\n

Chile<\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nAnother South American country making waves internationally, Chile is gaining popularity quickly amongst hikers and backpackers. The nation\u2019s capital, Santiago, is a vibey and buzzing metropolis home to some 5 million people. It\u2019s a great place for exploring, eating, drinking and soaking up the atmosphere of Chile. Venture further afield and you\u2019ll be spoiled for choice in terms of natural sights. Lagoons, hot springs, and the Atacama Desert. That\u2019s not to mention the possibility of hiking or horseriding across beautiful and mystic Patagonia, the stuff dreams are made of.<\/p>\n

Wisconsin, USA<\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nWhile we\u2019d never suggest that you cut out New York or Chicago on your first USA trip, there\u2019s definitely something to be said for seeing parts of the vast country that aren\u2019t on the typical tourist map. The great thing about America is that it\u2019s so big, so there\u2019s every kind of scenery and culture you could imagine. Wisconsin has 66 state parks, and encompasses pretty much every type of landscape you could imagine; rocky beaches, sandy beaches, rolling hills, rugged cliffs, gorges, rivers, lakes. The list is endless. And Milwaukee isn\u2019t called Beer City for nothing. It plays home to the finest brewmasters, and is a great place to drink, eat and visit one of the numerous festivals throughout the year.
