Honolulu

Rating: 8.9

Ocean breezes rustle palm trees along the harborfront, while in the cool, mist-shrouded Koʻolau Range, forested hiking trails offer postcard city views. At sunset, cool off with an amble around Magic Island or splash in the ocean at Ala Moana Beach.

Santorini

With multicoloured cliffs soaring above a sea-drowned caldera, Santorini looks like a giant slab of layered cake. The main island of Thira will take your breath away with its snow-drift of white Cycladic houses lining the cliff tops and, in places, spilling like icy cornices down the terraced rock.

Cusco

Wandered the cobblestone streets and quaint lanes of the town, which has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site. A walking tour revealed historic architecture, colonial landmarks and alluring shops and restaurants.
