1. Galapagos Islands in Ecuador

The best time to visit this phenomenon is in late September to late March!

3. Wildlife Safari in Kenya

Did you ever think you would come up close and personal to a lion or a giraffe? You can, if you go on a safari. This is better than going to a zoo because the animals roam free in their natural habitat. There is nothing stopping them from coming to greet you. The savanna is alive with incredible animals that you will probably only get to see up close once in your life. The best time to go on safari ranges from late June to October, so hurry and book your trip before time runs out! Out of all the travel destinations, you have to check out this one ASAP!

4. Machu Picchu in Peru

Take a trip back in time and hike up to the ruins of an ancient civilization, the Inca. Snap a photo of this green, mountainous, landscape for your Instagram, but be sure to take a moment and appreciate what standing among these ruins means for the human civilization. Be sure to book a tour guide so you can learn the history of this iconic landmark. If you book your trip between April and October, you are sure to beat the crowd of tourists!

5. Yosemite National Park, California

For any nature enthusiast, this is a fixed destination on their bucket list. Yosemite National Park is home to a forest of sequoia trees as well as the famed Bridalveil Falls. Among its other attractions are the granite cliffs and of course Yosemite Village filled with shops, restaurants, and cabin lodging. Being among beautiful natural landscapes should be on everyone’s bucket list! Be sure to visit in the springtime when all of the flowers are blooming and the waterfalls are at their best!

6. Great Wall of China

Although the wall is 21,000 km and stretches across China, there is no reason you can’t visit part of the wall. A popular spot to start your trek is in Beijing where you can also book a tour for the opportunity to learn more about the history of this world wonder.  If you want to beat the crowd, the best time to visit is between March and May or September to November. Bring a good pair of shoes!
