5 Best Bucket List Destinations for World Travel in 2024

This video is a list of five of the best tourist destinations in the world for 2024. This list includes the Faroe Islands, Lake Atitlan Guatemala, Raja Ampat Indonesia, Folegandros Greece, and Milford Sound New Zealand.

Not only are each of these travel destinations incredibly beautiful, they are each incredibly beautiful places without quite as many visitors.

▶️ We started our channel to inspire and share our world travel lifestyle, adventures, and optimistic outlook on life with others. After completing a two-year journey in our Airstream to see all 50 states and 51 National Parks, we left to travel abroad. We have downsized our possessions and sold our home so that we can wander about with only the things in our backpacks.

We love living on the road, traveling each week to a new location. We plan to travel extensively to every part of the world. Ours is not a slow travel lifestyle but rather a vagabondish one. The goal is not to check a country off a list, but to experience it by meeting new people, seeing how others live, and making new friends. We believe in laughing, loving, and living our lives to the fullest.

We are working hard to build a beautiful website where you can get travel information about the places we have been. In addition, we post blog articles to help you travel better. Our channel is a way of augmenting that effort, so sometimes we post videos about how to travel or a vlog showing our lives on the road as we do an activity or an adventure. We also post Shorts, so check those out, too. We hope to entertain you, but most importantly, we want to inspire you and give you the confidence to plan your own adventure around the world.

As an aside that has nothing to do with "Bucket Lists"...
I'm a retired motion picture Editor and Producer who worked in Hollywood for more than three decades. Your videos are very well shot and edited. As someone who is now in their early 60's, I can't tell you how much I appreciate the pacing of your editing. Nowadays, you can't watch a TV show, movie, commercial, or YouTube video without being bombarded with absurdly frenetic editing. You guys are doing a great job!

Canadian bias here 😊 but hike Cape Breton trails, stay overnight in an igloo to see the Aurora Borealis from up North, wander the old town of Quebec City and stay overnight in the ice hotel and my personal fav to hike the rain forests in pacific rim national park. There is so much in Canada to explore, this just touches the surface.

My favorite destinations so far (26 countries and counting), in no particular order, Katmai National Park for the brown bears, Uganda for gorilla trekking, Galapagos, Paris (so many great museums), and scuba diving in Indonesia. And like you guys, we LOVE the USA National Parks!

After watching one of your videos, my husband came to me and said that he wanted to really retire in two years. I say "really" because he supposedly retired from teaching 14 years ago, but some school always seems to convince him to return to the classroom. We are actually beginning the process of cleaning out and getting ready to sell our house. This time I believe him and have created a file for places to go and these 5 places will definitely be included in our plans.

Hiking the Kumano Kodo in Japan -- the ancient pilgrimage trail located on the Kii peninsula south of Osaka. It is one of only two pilgrimage routes that is registered as UNESCO world heritage (the other is the Camino de Santiago/Way of St. James). We were fortunate to hike it this past spring, and it was an unforgettable experience of Japanese spirituality, ancient traditions, nature, hospitality, and cuisine!

When at university, as soon as exams were over, my friends and I would hop on a bus to the Kineret (sea of galilee). We would stay in a hostel in Taveria. It is still my most favorite place in the whole world. Bonus for John- there's a really fun marathon around the sea!

My wife and I have the Faroe Islands on our list. On our recent trip to Alaska, a couple that we met from England said it was like Iceland but not nearly as touristy. The other places sound great too, I guess our list will keep growing.

The places I visited and would like to visit again are Gaoxiung in Taiwan, El Calafate in Patagonia, Palau, Berlin, and like yours, lake Atitilan. I have been to Iceland and Norway, so Faroe island is not on my list, I also went diving in Palau so the Indonesian city is not that attractive to me. And I had bad experiences in those Greek islands, and don’t think I’ll go back to any one of them. But I definitely will go back to lake Atitilan. That area is so enchanting and I went back twice already. I love Taiwan where you can go climb a mountain in the morning and go to the beach in the afternoon, everything is so convenient there. Patagonia is so beautiful and vast, I’d like to go camping again. Berlin is the big city that I like the most, just because it has so many museums and beautiful parks, rivers.

[bonnietaylor]

I’ve been to Lake Atitlan several times with a friend who is a missionary to Guatemala. I was thrilled to see you’ve been there - it’s certainly isn’t a mainstream tourist destination.

Wow! Just Wow! As for our favorite, I think the hike from Wengen to Grindelwald in the Swiss alps is amazing. Not as exotic as some, but accessible to many. The Dolomites in Italy are also beautiful places to hike. Both were done in early September.

Thank you for releasing on Fridays! I love all of your videos.

[BasicAmericanDadAbroad]

WOW, amazing places off the usual paths! Thank you for introducing such spectacular destinations to us 🙌

Loved this list!! Each location was incredible thank you for sharing!

Have you rafted down the Colorado River? If not, you may want to put this adventure on your list! I've had to good fortune to travel a bit, and when I think of all the places I've been, and all the experiences I've had, traveling this river is an experience I will never, ever forget. We took the 8 night journey. Camping, hiking, meeting new friends, learning, and riding thrilling rapids. It's just a magical experience. Thanks for the great video, I'm really inspired by your content⭐
