Whitewashed architecture, contrasting blue oceans and tasty Mediterranean food - it's no surprise many want to venture to the Greek Isles. From activities and historical explorations in Athens to the sweeping views of Santorini, there's something for everyone.

A trip to Greece isn’t complete without Santorini, the most well-known and oft-talked about island. A volcanic explosion created the stunning cliffs, which now feature two gorgeous cobblestoned towns.

2. New South Wales

With people flocking to popular destinations, some hidden gems do go unnoticed. Many eager travelers will already have their eyes on this trip.

Stepping away from its vibrant city Sydney and the surfing hub of Byron Bay, the state of New South Wales has plenty to offer away from the hustle and bustle.

Take the Blue Mountains, for example. It's a place where you can revel in peace and tranquillity. Spend some time marveling at the sensational views over deep valley troughs that formed over millions of years. There’s also the unmissable sleepy seaside town on the coast called South West Rocks - perfect for a secluded getaway.

3. Ibiza

Ibiza belongs on everyone’s list and despite what someone may have told you, it’s not only good for the nightlife. While most of the island is known for its party-goers, with some of the world’s most famous clubs, the northern half is peaceful and historic. 

There’s far more to the island than you might think. You can spend your first few evenings dancing and drinking the night away, then unwind. Head to some of its beautiful beaches or explore the fortified Alta Vila, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The picturesque marina is just another reason you’d be a fool not to visit as the food there is often a cut above the rest. Ibiza has come a long way when it comes to cuisine and the island is home to a multitude of great dining options.

4. Iceland

You can take in spectacular sights such as the Skógafoss waterfalls, the Dyrhólaey cliffs and the Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon. Not to mention, if you go during the winter months, you can catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights - one of the most beautiful displays of nature.
