The best travel destinations to explore in 2020

Conde Nast Traveler released a list of the most exciting destinations for 2020.

A new decade calls for new adventures.

From the city streets of Dubai, to the volcanic Canary Islands, and the Canadian Arctic, Conde Nast Traveler released a list of the most exciting destinations for 2020.

Conde Nast travel expert Mark Ellwood broke down the list with FOX Business’ Lauren Simonetti on Thursday, assuring the destinations appeal to all tastes.

Here are five of the destinations out of the list's top 20.

Southwest Michigan

St. Joseph, Michigan

Americans don’t have to travel too far to explore unique places. Ellwood said he believes beautiful Southwest Michigan has been intentionally kept secret by Midwesterners.

“They know it’s amazing,” he said. “Northern California: you should be learning from Southwest Michigan.

Ellwood said the most incredible parts of the location include lakefront views on Lake Michigan, incredible local cuisine due to the state’s agricultural diversity and a likeness to a New England town.

VOLUNTEER VACATIONS ARE NEW TRAVEL TREND

Beer and winemakers have taken advantage of Michigan’s fertile land and agricultural market, establishing wineries and breweries along the coast.

Metz, France

Metz, Lorraine, France

If you’re Europe bound, Metz, France has made the list for its astounding architecture and history.

Metz is home to 800-year-old gothic St.-Etienne cathedral, which Ellwood says is “just as extraordinary” as the Notre Dame. The cathedral is embellished with 70,000 square feet of stained glass.

Metz is nestled in Lorraine, France, about an hour and a half outside of Paris. The city can be credited for birthing the Quiche Lorraine, while currently welcoming contemporary chefs and restaurants that use local produce.

Along with sustainability, Copenhagen is home to culturally-diverse food options and a year-round, rooftop ski slope.
