There are some places you simply must visit in your lifetime. Jenny Ferguson reveals which ones.

The world is a big place. Many different cultures have lived and left their mark all over the world. Some people can go their entire life without leaving their home country, or even their home city. Imagine all the places they haven’t experienced? Travel, I would argue, is the spice of life. Things are just a little bland without it. So spice it up and see some of the greatest places on Earth along the way! It’s time to finish our grand tour around the world:  which destinations will make the list?

5)  Fiji

A country of 322 islands, Fiji is one of the greatest exotic honeymoon spots in the world.  But you don’t have to be a honeymooner to experience Fiji’s beaches, rainforests, coral reefs, and everything else it has to offer. Be sure to treat yourself to some locally grown fruit, as it doesn’t taste any sweeter or fresher anywhere else!

Beqa Lagoon is not to be missed because the barrier reef provides fish in every colour; you can’t help but be mesmerized. Try snorkeling or Scuba diving to see the underwater sights, or visit Horseshoe Bay Beach, which has been called “one of the finest beaches in Fiji” by expert Patricia Schultz, author of 1,000 Places To See Before You Die.

If you love gardens, Taveuni Island, nicknamed the Garden Island is the place to be to see how volcanic soil has invigorated the local flora and fauna.


4)  Morocco


Even if you only go to Morocco to eat, you will leave a happy traveler! Due to Morocco’s long history and the influence of outside civilizations, Morocco is a lovely blend of all sorts of spices, cultures and religions. Be sure to try the couscous.

If you haven’t seen Casablanca, the Moroccan city is a must-see! While exploring one of the world’s largest artificial ports, be sure to take in the Hassan II Mosque. Half of the mosque is actually build over the sea; there’s a glass floor for worshipers who want to pray over the ocean!

If you’re up for it, arrange a trek into the world’s largest desert, the Sahara, to experience Morocco’s best.
