Experience the  gems our world has to offer. Take the plunge and journey somewhere you have never even imagined. These places are sure to get you excited, so check them out.

1. Instead of Burma and Vietnam, experience Cambodia.

Imagine an undisturbed Phuket, with gorgeous coral reefs and traditional villages, not forgetting the beauty of course.

2. Instead of Iceland, visit Greenland

Iceland is becoming more popular with tourists. Greenland however is still quite undiscovered. Explore glaciers like never before, go kayaking with whales and see a part of the world where only a few ever go.

3. Instead of Berlin, go to Hamburg

Okay, admittedly Hamburg isn’t as exotic as some of the others, but it is amazing how much Hamburg has to offer. Berlin has been intruded by hipsters from all over the globe, yet Hamburg is a German gem that still boasts tradition. And as a tip, it’s great for underground music, and even better, you won’t pay Berlin prices!

4. Instead of Dubrovnik, explore Rovinj

If you’re looking to absorb the Croatian vibe, settle in the fishing port town of Rovinj. With Venetian style buildings, excellent olive oils and romantic sunset walks on offer, you can experience the real Croatia.

5. Instead of Dubai, open your eyes to Oman

Finally, with limited travellers allowed into Oman, it remains one of the worlds best kept secrets. With exquisite beaches, lush forests and stunning photo opportunities, Oman is bursting with adventure.
