The best holiday destinations in the world
One person's idea of the best holiday destinations in the world differs wildly from the next's. It all depends, of course, on what you want from a holiday. Whether your idea of fun is taking off as many clothes as is humanly decent and dancing in Saharan conditions, or standing ponderously before Giotto's candlelit frescoes in Assisi, or hacking through rainforest to discover the indigenous tribe that has never before clapped eyes on an outsider. Why, every day thousands make the pilgrimage that is the three-hour queue at Madame Tussaud's to see dummies which look like famous people, and they can't get enough of it.
Some places in the world, however, are so unequivocally brilliant, so indisputably incredible, that it would take extraordinary effort to not love them. Places that have everyone from belligerent old uncles to jaded been-there-done-it-alls about what a simply WONDERFUL holiday they had. So here is the ultimate holiday calendar to help you find out where to go when, top holiday destinations whether you want beaches or wilderness, safari or city breaks, skiing or winter sun: the 10 best holiday destinations for every month of the year.
