Malta Ranked Top Destination To Unwind By Lonely Planet
Leading travel guide Lonely Planet has ranked Malta as the top destination to unwind for next year’s guide of top spots to visit.
Unveiling its top destinations to visit next year, Malta featured alongside destinations such as Halkidiki in Greece and Jordan.
Lonely Planet also said that Malta has been “much-loved by European visitors for decades,” adding that it “is attracting more visitors from around the world, beckoned by its prehistoric temples, fantastic scuba diving and buzzy Valletta, its beautiful capital”.
Showcasing 30 incredible destinations around this globe, Best in Travel 2023 is Lonely Planet’s 18th annual collection of the world’s hottest destinations and the must-have travel experiences for the year ahead.
Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel 2023 recommends 30 must-visit locations around food, journeying, connection, learning, and unwinding.
It also offers a comprehensive set of itineraries aimed at helping travelers to explore the world — while following along with some seriously knowledgeable locally-based experts along the way.
The award was presented to Minister for Tourism Clayton Bartolo; Gavin Gulia and Carlo Micallef, Chairman and CEO of the Malta Tourism Authority, during last week’s World Travel Market in London.
Each year, Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel 2023 lists start with nominations from Lonely Planet’s vast community of staff, writers, bloggers, publishing partners, and more. The nominations are then whittled down by our panel of travel experts to just 30 destinations.
Countries are chosen for their topicality, unique experiences, ‘wow’ factor, and ongoing commitment to sustainability, community, and diversity.
