One Canadian city cracks top 10 best places to travel in 2024
One Canadian city has made it to a new list of the top travel destinations in 2024, and a visit to this East Coast gem just might encourage you to enjoy a slower-paced vacation.
Travel Lemming recently released its top 50 places to visit in 2024.
This year’s list was curated by Travel Lemming’s in-house travel experts and focused on destinations that embraced a slower and more sustainable pace of vacationing.
Travel Lemming noted that with the “pent-up wanderlust” of the post-pandemic years finally winding down, “2024 is the perfect time to slow it down a notch.”
“2024 will be the year travelers choose immersive experiences over itineraries packed to the brim. Our list is filled with destinations perfect for slower experiential trips,” stated Travel Lemming CEO Nate Hake in a release.
Taking first place on the list was Yucatán, Mexico.
Travel Lemming described Yucatán as the perfect escape from busy Cancun. Highlights include the colourful towns, beautiful underground swimming holes and beaches “free of tourists.”
Gizo, Solomon Islands, came in second, offering visitors an off-the-grid tropical vacation escape.
In third place was Stavanger, Norway, a remote Scandinavian city known for its stunning natural beauty.
Antigua, Guatemala, and Memphis, Tenessee, rounded out the top five spots.
There was one Canadian destination that cracked the top 10.
Travel Lemming named St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador, the seventh best place to travel in 2024.
“Heartwarming locals welcome visitors to this colourful city in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Explore historic sites, stunning landscapes, and waterfront eateries serving craft beer and seafood,” stated Travel Lemming.
The website noted the city’s craft beer scene and beautiful trails as highlights for visitors.
