Feel the wanderlust! Frommer’s travel editors have hit the ground running with their annual Best Places list, featuring locations from all over the world. After two years of domestic travel advisories — battling airport shortages, flight delays and high gas prices — they’re announcing (cautiously) optimism about this far-flung list of cities, countries and regions on six continents.
The 15 locations run the gamut from white-sand beaches to historic splendor. Some offer an alternative to the over-touristy regions – head to Maratea on Italy’s coast, 110 miles south of the famous and very crowded Amalfi Coast. Some offer huge celebrations – for example, Vilnius, Lithuania turns 700 years old. Some, including Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, will offer new, streamlined ways to travel next year. The first phase of the $10 billion rail project, a “train through the jungle” route that will eventually connect Cancun, Tulum, Playa del Carmen and Chichén Itzá, is set to open in 2023. at the end
