🌎 Summer 2025: where to avoid 😬

and where to go instead ☀️😁

View in browser Hi kopral,   Overpriced flights, packed-out beaches, queues that go on forever… some destinations just aren't worth the summer chaos. But that doesn't mean you have to miss out. Best alternative destinations (and when to go) These swaps give you all the best bits—stunning landscapes, rich history, incredible food—without the crowds.   Happy travels, Lucy Rome's landmarks are stunning, but so are the crowds. Naples has just as much history, a dramatic coastal setting, and the best pizza you'll ever eat. Our pick: Naples Costa Rica is famous for its wildlife and beaches, but Panama has all that—plus untouched islands, fewer tourists, and lower prices. Our pick: Panama If you love alpine lakes and mountain views but not the Swiss price tag, Slovenia is the answer. Hike in the Julian Alps, visit Lake Bled, and enjoy incredible food and wine. Our pick: Slovenia Cancun's beaches are beautiful, but Oaxaca has something different: fantastic indigenous markets, stunning mountain scenery, and some of the best food in Mexico. Our pick: Oaxaca Mykonos is packed in summer, but Greece has plenty of quieter spots with just as much beauty. The mainland is full of ancient ruins, scenic coastlines, and hidden beaches.  Our pick: Mainland Greece Apa Group, London (WC2) Office, 7 Bell Yard, London, WC2A 2JR, United Kingdom Unsubscribe Manage preferences
