Avoid: Iceland

Iceland is at the juncture of the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans. The climate of Iceland’s coast is subpolar oceanic. Iceland has many geysers, volcanoes, iconic waterfalls and other wonders of nature. But Iceland attractions lose their charm on the background of a vast number of tourists.

Replace with: New Zealand

New Zealand is a beautiful island nation in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. Because of its remoteness, it was one of the last lands to be settled by humans. During its long period of isolation, New Zealand developed a distinctive biodiversity of animal, fungal and plant life. The country’s varied topography and its sharp mountain peaks, such as the Southern Alps, owe much to the tectonic uplift of land and volcanic eruptions. It is a fantastic place where you can find geysers, waterfalls, lakes, hills, and glaciers.
