As we welcome the start of the new year, I wanted to share with you my top destinations for 2024 to allow us to manifest lots of travel into the next 12 months!

Reykjavik, Iceland: Chasing the Northern Lights

2024 is the year to see the northern lights at their best! Reykjavik is the capital of Iceland and has been gaining popularity for its beautiful landscapes, geothermal hot springs, and of course, the Northern Lights. The best time to visit is between September and March.

Tokyo, Japan: The Tech Capital of the World

Tokyo is no stranger to the travel scene, but 2024 is going to be a year like no other for this city. With the Summer Olympics having left a buzz of excitement, Tokyo is the destination to explore this year and despite what everyone says, it is actually possible to do on a budget. Immerse yourself into the mix of ancient traditions and modern technology by exploring historic shrines, eating fresh sushi, and navigating the neon-lit streets of Shibuya. The best time to visit is March to May when it isn’t too hot and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom!

Cape Town, South Africa: A Combination of Culture and Nature

Cape Town is an absolute hidden gem. Nestled between the famous Table Mountain and the stunning beaches of the Cape Peninsula, this city is the perfect balance of culture, history, and amazing scenery. You can explore the diverse nature, indulge in local cuisine, and take a cable car ride to the top of Table Mountain for a panoramic view that will leave you in awe. The best time to visit is January to March as the days are longer and the weather is gorgeous!

Marrakech, Morocco: The Red City

Be transported to a world of sun and spices in Marrakech. The vibrant colours, busy souks, and the aromatic scent of spices will leave you in awe of this amazing city. Get lost in the maze-like streets of the medina, visit the historic Jardin Majorelle, and savor the flavors of tagines and couscous. The best time to visit is May to September as there is less rain and it is not too hot!

Quebec City, Canada: Winter Wonderland

If you’re a winter person, Quebec City is your dream destination. The historic charm of Old Quebec during the winter season, with twinkling lights and snow, is straight out of a fairy tale. Embrace the cold with activities like ice skating in Place d’Youville, exploring Montmorency Falls, and sipping on hot maple syrup-infused drinks. Who said winter is the worst season? The best time to visit is of course December to March!

These are my top travel destinations for 2024 that are sure to give you the travel bug and make the most of this year! Pack your bags, charge your camera, and get ready for your next adventure! Safe travels!
