The country's one-time capital is one of the most beautiful places in Turkey.

Once thought of as Lisbon's little sister, Porto beat the Portuguese capital in this year's list.

It’ll be my first time visiting Lake Como and the four-day Easter break seems like the perfect amount of time to explore and chill out with an Aperol. I'm looking forward to sailing the waters and hopping off at the colourful towns that sit just on the water’s edge – Bellagio and Verenna are top of my list. I’ll be staying at the chic Villa Lario and diving into their infinity pool at the first chance I get.

April is the perfect time for a trip to La La Land. The weather is a comfortable 23 degrees, so it’s ideal for brunch outside hip Silverlake hangout Sqirl, afternoons exploring Abbot Kinney Boulevard or micro-breweries in the Arts District, and evenings sipping cocktails on the rooftop of Downtown’s Perch. The Hoxton's DTLA spot – complete with Instagrammable interiors and rooftop pool.

Built in 2021, the rustic cabin is slick yet cosy, with an open-plan living area and fully equipped kitchen. But it's the outside, set within acres of farmland, where you'll find the real wow-factor. Take your morning coffee outside to spy roe deer, pheasants, foxes, badgers and red kites, and enjoy a sundowner from the wood-fired hot tub, followed by a splash around in the outdoor copper bath. During the day, there are miles of countryside walks to take, plus the historic town of Wi******er is only three miles away.

Paris is always a good idea, which is why without fail it keeps finding its way onto our shortlist. If you thought the recent renovations of the Royal Monceau, Hotel de Crillon, or the Lutetia weren’t OTT enough, then consider Airelles’ new endeavor in nearby Versailles, Les Airelles Le Grand Controle, right on the Sun King’s grounds we guarantee plenty of cake eating as you ogle all the royal finery.

It was in 1820 that Nathanial Palmer headed south to the edge of the earth on a 47-foot sloop named Hero on a sealing expedition and laid claim to the discovery of Antarctica, remarks George Morgan-Grenville, Founder & CEO of Red Savannah. And now, 200 years later, vast swaths of the polar region have begun to melt and recess in the face of rising global temperatures. A slew of new expedition-class vessels have been thusly deployed to take travelers back to the end of the world for one last look before it threatens to disappear.

Fifty years ago, there were over 500 hotels in the Catskills a haven where those plagued by the unpleasant side effects of urban living could breathe in the fresh mountain air. Massive resorts grew (the region lays claim to having the first indoor swimming, dubbed a “natatorium”) attracting New York, Boston and Philadelphia’s Jewish and Italian populations, but then air conditioning was invented, airplanes went commercial, and assimilation among immigrant cultures became commonplace the result? No one felt the need for a Dirty Dancing-esque escape any more.

This small but dynamic country has ended up on our must-visit list more than once this past decade, but it's becoming a classic for far more reasons than one. "If Tel Aviv is the extroverted and eccentric younger brother, Jerusalem is an enigmatic and surprising city that has a contemporary side usually unknown to travelers," explains Tova Wald of Boutique Travel & Events.

Year after year Japan always seems to find a way to surprise and delight us it’s like the Meryl Streep of destinations, constantly out-performing the competition, and even one-upping itself. We feel repeatedly compelled to honor the Land of the Rising Sun because every new development be it a luxury hotel, restaurant, or even a bullet train link is always executed with the greatest of care. And 2020 is no different, especially with the impending Summer Olympics being held in Tokyo.

Remember the Listerine-green swimming pool at the 2016 Rio Olympics? It became the physical manifestation of the corporate and political dysfunction that’s plagued Brazil for decades. But four years later, and out from under the international spotlight, South America’s largest nation has had a chance to quietly find its footing; each step forward (like the dissolution of the American visa mandate) a mea culpa for the series of calamities surrounding the Summer Games. And with the recent softening of the local currency, all seems to be forgiven.

Beware Chicago: Houston is coming for you. Texas’s largest metropolis is poised to usurp the mid western burg’s number-three position in the next national census. And with a population increasing at a significantly faster rate than cities #1 and #2 (New York and Los Angeles), who knows where Houston will rank by the end of the 2020s.

Somewhere south of Morocco’s sand dunes lies the motherland of Caribbean culture, a country where brilliant bolts of fabric hug its citizens, and the thump and scratch of live music underscores a symphony of bustling markets, crashing waves fit for surfing, and the howl of gray desert winds. With a newish international airport, Dakar is posed to be your layover hub as passengers transit between continents and a weekend is all you need to uncover a capital that’s poised to take on its rival cities abroad.

For years, Melbournians have touted their hometown as Australia’s fun, most livable city, with cool bars and a dining culture that’s elevated both coffee and veggie-forward eating (hello, avo-toast). Sydney, though bigger, was the show pony a beautiful burg fit for the click of the camera and not much more. But everything’s about to change: the beginning of 2020 marks the end of the state’s stringent lockout laws legislation aimed at curbing violence due to late-night alcohol consumption in Sydney’s Central Business District, which will inevitably breathe new life into the flagging bar culture.

Croatia
Croatia's surge in popularity has been meteoric, and it's not hard to see why. In the past 10 years it has gone from being considered a cheaper, quieter alternative to Italy to being one of the hottest destinations for summer. Take to the islands to dance with beautiful young things at one of the festivals hosted in June, such as Hideout on the island of Pag, or jump aboard a yacht to find a quiet stretch of the Dalmatian coast. If you need a little less beach and a bit more city, Dubrovnik has enough history and culture within its Gregorian walls to keep you busy for a weekend.

Edinburgh, Scotland
A raucous city, Edinburgh has Georgian nooks to wander into and find a sing-a-long at an all-night piano bar and filthy comedians who take over town for a whole month every year. But while August’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe is a wonderful thing, it’s also a circus: prices are high and vacancies – in the hotels, pubs and restaurants – are scant. Come in June instead, when the Scottish summer is in full flow (it might even touch the 20s), and you can still get your culture fix (both the Leith arts festival and Edinburgh International Film Festival are on then). Sample the super-smart hospitality, too: seasonal Scottish ingredients meet classic French fine dining at Michelin-starred Martin Wishart; Eden Locke, a millennial pink-brushed aparthotel, has its own third-wave coffee shop.

Corsica
Imagine a Mediterranean island soaked in Italy’s summer sun, only it’s eluded the season’s legions of solar-seekers. Actually, don’t imagine it – see it for yourself, on Corsica. A region of France anchored off the western coast of Italy, it is a tale of two islands: ritzy Porto-Vecchio’s superyachts and designer shops dominate the south, while isolated bays, hilltop stone towns and a growing crop of quiet, designer villas define the north. Flights from Britain have long been stubbornly ill-timed; this May, however, Air Corsica launches the most frequent service yet between the island and London, leaving twice-weekly from Stansted. Better to wait until June, though. It's just before the crowds and still clocks in the second-highest sunshine hours of the year behind busy July – at a not-too-terrible 11.

Quebec, Canada
Summer is when Québécois finally feel safe to take off their thermals, having survived another winter of -40°C temperatures by the sheer, warming heft of poutine. And what a world they liberate their legs into. Festival-mad Montreal is warming well into the 20s and comes alive with outdoor amusements: Sunday dance parties at Electronik Picnic in leafy Parc Jean-Drapeau; and June’s annual Mural Festival, celebrating Montreal street art. Others may heed the call of the wild coasts of the Gaspé Peninsula, where heavily scented pine forests sweep across impossible promontories. Imagine a more rugged Maine, dotted with oh-so-French gîtes.

Copenhagen
For such a small city, Copenhagen is seriously cool. In summer, good-looking Danes whizz around on brightly coloured bikes, drink craft beer outside and sip coffee by the sea. Eating is a national pastime; Noma has made its grand return, or if your tastes are more low-key, grab some organic street food at one of Papirøen's stalls. Mälmo in Sweden is a short 20-minute hop across the Øresund Strait and is great for an afternoon trip. Plonk yourself down in the town square and join in with After Work – the Scandi term for happy hour, which starts wonderfully early, at 4pm.
