In less than a month we will be in a new year, and for many of us, that means a reload of our vacation days. Here's where you should use them:
In less than a month we will be in a new year, and for many of us, that means a reload of our vacation days. If you’ve got kids, it means another spring break and assorted school vacations. For all of us, it means another spring, fall, summer and winter, so no matter what your leisure preferences, schedule or the type of travel you enjoy, it means another year full of exciting possibilities.
But for as long as I have been covering travel, a quarter of a century, there has always been an Iceland of the moment, a place that gets hot from media buzz rather than concrete reasons. If you haven’t been to Italy or Hawaii, by all means go, but if you are looking for something new, consider the places that are emerging as the new timely hotspots.
The hottest of all the red-hot destinations, Japan has broken tourism records the past couple of years in a row and has been enjoying a perfect storm of tourism appeals that have elevated it onto the cover of just about every travel magazine. The big one is the 2020 Olympic Games, and after they view the country’s photogenic culture on TV, spectators will want to go.
When I started in travel, most visitors just went to Lisbon and the surrounding beach towns. But the recent growth has been spurred by the Duoro River Valley and Porto, a charming small city, to the north, wine country where major new hotels and luxury resorts have opened like wildfire, from Six Senses to Thailand-based Anantara’s first foray into Europe. Portugal has always been one of the continent’s top golf destinations, but like skiing in Japan, American consumers were slow to realize that.
