It’s never too early to plan that next big trip. Look ahead to 2023 with travel inspiration from these international destinations.

 

Australia

Australia reopened its borders to international travelers earlier in 2022. Avoid crowds in one of the country’s off-the-beaten-path regions. The Northern Territory offers culture, adventure, wildlife experiences and culinary delights. The region is home to Uluru (previously Ayers Rock), Kakadu National Park and the city of Darwin. Experiential accommodation Finniss River Lodge recently opened. With only six suites, the lodge offers a secluded escape, whether you’re interested in a relaxing or adventurous getaway.

Experience the region’s rich Afro-Caribbean heritage and culture.

Kyoto, Japan

With the impending reopening of its borders, Japan is a must-visit for 2023. Kyoto offers new hotels for travelers in 2023.
