Wadi Rum in Jordan

World-famous archaeological sites like Petra, the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea that allow you to float effortlessly, and the desert beauty of Wadi Rum truly make this a once-in-a-lifetime holiday.

Star Wars fans should visit Wadi Rum, which doubled up as Jedha in Rogue One and Pasaana in Episode IX. Known as the Valley of the Moon, it also appeared in a slew of other films including Lawrence of Arabia, The Martian and the recent version of Dune.

Nungwi | Zanzibar

Nungwi

If you want to travel to what many have called the best beach in the world and don't mind a 14-hour flight to get there, Nungwi at the northern tip of Zanzibar could be the exotic getaway you need this June.

June's the end of rainy season, temperatures regularly reach 30°C and TUI run a great value package holiday there, so there's never been a better time to visit this Instagram-friendly island off the coast of Tanzania. Old meets new on Nungwi's gorgeous coastline, as traditional wooden fishing boats float past high-end hotels, snorkellers and bronzed tourists lazing on sun loungers with cocktails in-hand.

It's worth pointing out that Tanzania scores poorly on our Good Trip Index. It's low on our list across most indices except animal rights, but performs particularly badly for LGBTQI+ travel. Same-sex sexual activity is illegal and homosexuality is widely frowned upon by locals, so it's important for LGBTQI+ travellers to be discreet when in Nungwi.

If you don't want to have to hide who you are while on holiday, take a look at our favourite LGBTQI+ friendly destinations.


Karpathos | Greece

33rd
Karpathos

If you're thinking of heading to Crete, why not hop on the ferry over to Karpathos instead? It's a bit smaller, a bit quieter, but still has plenty of personality.

For the classic all-inclusive resorts and beaches head to the south. For authenticity, head north where remote villages perch on mountains and dirt trails lead to secret coves. Wherever you go, it's all infinitely Instagrammable – but the influencers haven't cottoned on yet, so get there quick before the secret gets out.

Karpathos topped our list of places to visit this year, so if you're eyeing Greece for your getaway now is as good a time as any to add it to your itinerary.

Baku

Up 19 places in our Good Trip Index, Azerbaijan offers a mix of ancient history, striking modern architecture, and diverse landscapes.

Travellers can explore the vibrant capital, Baku, with its futuristic skyline and UNESCO-listed Old City, then venture into the scenic Caucasus Mountains or relax by the Caspian Sea. The country boasts more mud volcanoes than anywhere in the world, fire temples, and Silk Road heritage, all enriched by warm hospitality and a unique fusion of cuisines. For those seeking a blend of culture, nature, and intrigue, Azerbaijan offers a captivating and less-crowded alternative in the heart of the Caucasus.


Antalya | Turkey

Gulet in Turkey

Turkey is a constant popular destination for UK travellers thanks to the reliable sun, mercury-popping temperatures and low prices compared to other popular holiday spots. If that's all the reason you need to go then stop reading now and book your flights.

If you need a bit more convincing, the absolutely glorious beaches are an easy win. Sparkling azure waters give the Blue Coast region its name. While the forested mountains that flank the beaches hide authentic villages and hidden ruins. So there's a little bit for everyone. Why not charter a gulet, or Turkish sailbot, and explore the secluded lagoons in the privacy of a small group? Bliss…
