As every year, the travel recommendation giant TripAdvisor publishes the standout destinations according to user choice for 2025. This time, it should be noted, they went for relatively known and popular destinations, not particularly exotic ones like last year.
Rank 1: London
The first place is reserved for the ever-popular British capital. The reasoning includes: "From the captivating style of Shoreditch to the punk atmosphere of Camden and Portobello, London is many worlds in one place. The city allows you to move between royal and historical sites, eat and drink in Michelin-starred restaurants, enjoy a beer in a traditional pub, or get lost in winding cobbled streets. London is the destination of endless possibilities."

Rank 5: Paris, France

Rank 7: Hanoi, Vietnam
Rank 8: Marrakech, Morocco
Rank 9: Crete, Greece
Rank 10: Bangkok, Thailand
Crete (Photo: Amit Kotler) From the list, it emerges that one country, Italy, managed to get two destinations into the top ten. Sicily, the island considered a pilgrimage center for tourists worldwide, and Rome, one of Europe's most popular (and busiest) capitals.
