If there is anything more popular than a visit to a Greek island, past the summer of 2024, it has to be the Cyclades that include names like Santorini and Mykonos.

 

With more smart stays being added in 2024, as well as all-inclusive luxury packages being offered which include first class cruise tickets from Florida, making getting to the Cyclades less of a hassle.

Paris, France

Best time: September and October ‘24

 

The best time to experience the “City of Light” is from April to June and then September to October when the weather is still mild and Paris radiates a charm of its own.

 

While the Eiffel Tower stands as testimony to architectural splendor and a symbol of romance, you can explore a treasure trove of art pieces at the Louvre Museum.

 

Moreover, after hosting the Olympic Games in July, the city appeals even further after the opening of many new hotels, luxury apartment rentals, art exhibits, and other projects that have made Paris shine.
