Travelling these days can feel like a big box-ticking exercise.
Popular destinations such as Barcelona, Venice and Prague are so choke-full of tourists, it’s impossible to get to genuinely know the city or its people.

Our editors have spoken to our readers and compile a list of not-very-far destinations that will re-awaken your interest in globe-trotting.
