We have already told you about the Lonely Planet Best in Travel 2026 ranking, where the destinations to visit in 2026 are selected according to the Australian publishing house, and whose criteria respond to the desire to make the trip a true discovery, which is in contact with the territory and the local inhabitants as much as possible.
Well, Lonely Planet didn’t stop there and created a section dedicated to the best experiences to live: in addition to the destination, you will also know what to do once you arrive, so be ready to take notes!
Any examples? You can follow elephants in the Namibian desert (accompanied by a guide), sleep in a ryokan, the traditional Japanese inn and go rafting in the Grand Canyon, in the heart of the USA.
