Travel News

There's a lot going on out in the world making travel news and updates easily missed.

That's why Under30Experiences's co-founder, Matt Wilson, keeps his finger on the pulse with the latest travel news that will benefit our travelers.

Here are some top stories from the last month:

1. Croatia adopted the Euro and joined the Schengen Zone

What does this mean for you?

Be sure to exchange any Croatian Kuna over to Euro before it becomes defunct.

There will be no border checks when arriving from another European country.

If you are a digital nomad, you will no longer be allowed to stay in Croatia once your 90-day stay in the Schengen Zone expires.

2. A list 25 most beautiful cities in the world is released

Travel + Leisure just released their list of the 25 most beautiful cities in the world!

While there are a lot to choose from, here are a few that you can visit with Under30Experiences:

Barcelona
Istanbul
Queenstown
Cape Town (coming soon with our new South Africa trip!)
Rome
Buenos Aires
Dubrovnik

3. China re-opens for travel!

After almost three years, China has re-opened its borders to travelers!

This might bring with it an increases in flight prices from major hubs like New York, Las Vegas, and San Francisco.

Cathay Pacific is also doubling the amount of flights being offered to mainland China in anticipation of increased demand now that the borders are open.

4. 2023 bucket-list trips you should be planning.

We all love bucket-list travel, and Lonely Planet just released their official list of not-to-miss locations in 2023.

A few bucket-list trips that you can take with Under30Experiences:

Egypt to see the new 1.1 billion dollar museum in Giza
Istanbul to check out the first museum of contemporary art
Iceland for Northern lights (we suggest going as late in the year as possible for better chances of seeing the Northern Lights)
Peru to hike the Inca Trail.

New Trip: South Africa!

In case you missed it, we're launching a new trip to South Africa next month!

It was an extremely popular trip request, and we expect for it to sell out during the launch.
