There is no need to leave the United States for travelers looking for an exotic location. Hawaii is the ideal tropical destination for travelers of all ages thanks to its stunning beaches, sand and surf, romantic sunsets, and countless activities.
Even in Honolulu, the bustling capital city, life slows down so that visitors can "hang-loose" like the natives do. Honor the distinctive history and culture of Hawaii.

Visit Japan for a rich, fulfilling experience.
Japan is an island nation that stretches 1,864 miles (3,000 kilometers) from north to south and is one of the most densely populated nations in the world. It is located east of the Asian mainland. From north to south, its five sizable islands—Hokkaido, Honshu, Kyushu, Shikoku, and Okinawa—stretch.
Tokyo, the nation's capital, is where most tourists begin their journey because it is home to well-known tourist destinations including Shibuya, Asakusa, and Shinjuku.
Don't miss the vibrant cherry blossoms if you're visiting Japan in the spring. This annual event draws a lot of visitors.
Numerous Buddhist and Shinto temples and shrines can be found all around the nation. The Manga museums and Geisha art performances will appeal to art lovers.
IRELAND
I still think that Ireland is the ideal place to travel in the globe. Ireland is the third-largest island in Europe—did you know that? My favorite memory is of experiencing the wonder of the Wild Atlantic Way, which stretches from the gorgeous West Cork coastline to the lovely beaches in Donegal.
This Atlantic nation is well-known around the world for its pubs, Celtic music, Riverdance, and Guinness beer. Additionally, Ireland is well-known throughout the world for its pubs, St. Patrick's Day festivities, literature, foot-tapping traditional Irish music, dancing, and music.
SCOTLAND
Scotland is at the top of my list of places to visit in the UK since I love the books and movies Outlander and Harry Potter.
Travelers will find plenty of memorable encounters in Scotland, with its blasting bagpipes, tartan-clad people, haggis, Loch Ness monster, St. Andrews, whisky distilleries, and several castles.
Begin with a day in Edinburgh. The Scottish Highlands are a popular destination for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts.
ICELAND
Iceland is a must-visit place for anyone's bucket list because of its gorgeous national parks, glaciers, and dramatic landscape.
Driving the Golden Circle Road in Iceland will make it clear why it is known as the Land of Ice and Fire. If you want to unwind, take a hot bath in the Blue Lagoon before seeing Iceland's numerous waterfalls.
ENGLAND
Even as a little child, I can still recall having dreams about traveling to England, especially London, since like other young girls, I yearned to be a princess. All princesses, princes, queens, and kings didn't reside there, right?
London, the capital of England and the United Kingdom, is what tops many travelers' lists, even though that may have been naive (but hey, I was only 9!). (However, driving in England might present some unforeseen challenges.)
Westminster Abbey, the majestic Houses of Parliament, and the recognizable Big Ben clock tower are located in the city's heart and are possibly its most well-known features.
And doesn't everyone desire to visit Buckingham Palace and see the changing of the guard, regardless of their age?
Cross the Thames River and ride the London Eye observation wheel for sweeping views of the South Bank cultural complex and (actually) the entire city.
COLORADO (USA)
Vast expanses, crystal-clear skies, and the breathtaking Rocky Mountains Why wouldn't you like Colorado? This four-season vacation spot attracts visitors from all over the world.
If you enjoy being outside, travel to the high country where Colorado's mountain communities offer even more vacation destinations that belong on bucket lists. The Rocky Mountains of Colorado offer world-class skiing, snowboarding, and other winter sports. Telluride, Vail, Winter Park, and Steamboat Springs are some of our favorite winter vacation spots.
Our tiny towns and communities, from the trendy metropolis of Denver to Colorado Springs, home of American's Mountain, Pikes Peak, are definitely worth experiencing if you enjoy dining out, attending concerts, and enjoying enjoyable festivals. Glenwood Springs, which is well-known for its hot springs, is another hotspot.
CANADA
Canada is a varied country in the north of North America, and we enjoy traveling there. Its 10 provinces and three territories, which make up the second-largest country in the world by total area, reach from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean.
Covering millions of miles (9.98 million square kilometers), that’s a vast amount of bucket list ideas in one country!
You can see belugas in Manitoba, watch cowboys in Calgary, kiss a fish (no joke!) in Newfoundland or eat more lobster than you’ve ever dreamed in Prince Edward Island.
Visit Toronto, which has a variety of neighborhoods like Little Italy, Chinatown, Greektown, Little India, and Koreatown, to get a sense of Canada's cultural diversity. It's like traveling the world to see this metropolis in the Canadian province of Ontario.
Wine enthusiasts should add visits to the wineries in Ontario and British Columbia.
MEXICO
Mexico has a ton of places to check off your bucket list, especially if you enjoy the warm weather and water.
Even if travel to Mexico is different this year, popular Mexican sites have already started to see a rise in visitor numbers.
Visit Cancun and Playa del Carmen, which are known for their white-sand beaches and turquoise oceans, to enjoy some time in the sun. It offers fascinating archaeological sites, 13 top-rated golf courses, luxurious spas, and lodgings for every budget and taste in addition to kilometers of beaches, endless nightclubs, and upmarket shopping.
Visit Puerto Vallarta for its 1.5-mile, 12-block Malecón, big beachfront hotel district, and delectable seafood.
The resort town of Cabo San Lucas, which is located on the Baja California peninsula in southern Mexico, is well-known for its beaches, water sports, and nightlife. Playa del Amor (Lover's Beach) and El Arco, the recognizable arch-shaped rock formation amid the sea cliffs, should both be visited.
GERMANY
Germany is the top destination on the wish lists of those who adore traveling throughout Europe. There are German islands to discover, despite the country being best renowned for its fairy tale castles, Bavarian Alps, and world-class cities.
Many tourists schedule their trips to Germany to coincide with yearly occasions like Oktoberfest and Christmas markets.
Munich is renowned for its Oktoberfest and beer halls, which include the Hofbräuhaus from the 16th century. Berlin, the nation's capital, was founded in the 13th century and is renowned for its violent past as well as serving as a symbol of reunification. You might wish to start with three days in Berlin because there is so much to see and do there.
AUSTRALIA
Many people have Australia on their vacation wish lists, and it's easy to understand why. This enormous nation provides a variety of attractions, including bustling cities, long stretches of golden beaches, wild outback bushland, and impressive mountain ranges.
Australia is the sixth-largest country in the world, therefore it would be very difficult to see everything during a single trip. Take one of these Australian road trips to cover more ground, or take the train.
CAMBODIA
The country of Cambodia in Southeast Asia is one that you should definitely put on your list of places to visit when you tour the world. Its stunning mountains, low-lying plains, the Mekong River, and the Gulf of Thailand coastline are all worth exploring in addition to the country's magnificent temples.
The country's vast complex of stone temples, Angkor Wat, is located in the northwest and should be explored by tourists. Your bucket list should undoubtedly include a visit to Angkor Wat, the eighth Wonder of the World.
Riding Cambodia's Bamboo Train, the Jungle Express, is a genuinely one-of-a-kind local treat. Travelers gladly pay the $2 price on what is known as the Norry Train, but locals prefer to pay in trade, offering everything from a pig for a month's worth of rides to a chicken for many rides. The tracks travel across the center of the nation for around 200 miles (320 km).
