Uzbekistan
In 2018, Uzbekistan relaxed its visa entry requirements(签证政策) by introducing a new e-visa for 51 countries, including Canada. Because of the easy visa entry requirements, it attracts more travellers.

Jordan
With year-over-year traveller growth of 71 percent for G Adventures, it’s probably safe to say that Jordan is back. Travellers can see Petras amazing tombs and ancient buildings carved (雕刻) into rock walls, and learn about Bedouin culture during an overnight stay in the desert.
Iceland
Winter is coming, and so is the craze for places in the north as the final season of Game of Thrones again shows its filming locations to audience. Iceland is no exception.
