Travel guide

For even more varied landscapes, Chile's otherwordly Atacama Desert and serene Patagonian glaciers are perfect for outdoor adventurers. On the other side of the world, New Zealand offers up its own array of gorgeous landscapes, from the geothermal wonders of Rotorua to the breathtaking fjords of Milford Sound.
These are the best places that are hot in January where you can get discounted rates on flights, accommodations, and tours during this off-peak season.
