From glaciers and geysers in Iceland to the fjords and forests of Scandinavia, these five top-selling destinations may well surprise you.<\/p>\n

Eastern Europe<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Top-Selling<\/p>\n

After years of returning to the same European destinations, travellers have finally started to journey to the east, and once they did they discovered how much this region has to offer. From the architecturally and culturally rich cities of the Czech Republic and Austria, travel through the mountainous landscape of Slovakia, thick forests of Slovenia and verdant green countryside of Hungary, to the secluded white sand bays of Croatia. With glacial lakes to stumble upon and medieval castles to explore, it’s no wonder so many travellers want to return.<\/p>\n

Iberia<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Top-Selling<\/p>\n

Also known as the Iberian Peninsula, this captivating region encompasses Portugal and Spain along with Andorra and Gibraltar. Whether a traveller is here to soak up local life amidst Spanish olive groves and vineyards, stroll along the waterfront of Portuguese harbour towns, or delve into the vibrant arts scenes in many of the region’s cities, Iberia is bound to beguile with its unique charm. And what makes this region even more enticing? Try the tapas \u2013 or petiscos, in Portuguese \u2013 to find out.<\/p>\n

Iceland<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Top-Selling<\/p>\n

Famed for its dramatic landscapes and charismatic people, Iceland has become increasingly popular with travellers seeking exciting new experiences. Visit in winter to come face-to-face with glaciers and steaming hot springs amidst snow-blanketed mountains, or see a different side to the island in summer, when the waterfalls and geysers are surrounded by verdant green scenery. With such diversity of natural riches, a trip here presents surprises at every turn.<\/p>\n

In the year that marks 100 years since the momentous Easter Rising, Ireland finds itself firmly in the spotlight. But the reasons to travel through the Emerald Isle go far beyond its rich history. Known worldwide for its rolling hills and green pasture, the Irish landscape is a breath of fresh air, with ancient stone castles, lively towns and a rugged coastline making each individual county unique. Become immersed in the spirited live music scene, taste fresh organic produce from both land and sea, and be welcomed in by the famously warm hospitality.<\/p>\n

Scandinavia<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Top-Selling<\/p>\n

Situated to the north of the Baltic Sea, Scandinavia attracts travellers to its mountains and shores with the promise of dramatic fjords, fir forest that’s home to wild reindeer, and the vast snow-scape of the Arctic Circle in the extreme north. Between Denmark, Norway and Sweden, the region offers an abundance of diverse landscapes and experiences, whether you choose to revel in the sophistication of Copenhagen and Stockholm, or set out on a journey through Scandinavia’s spectacular valleys and mountains.<\/p>\n
