It seems the tide might be finally turning when it comes to where – and how – we travel. In some of the world’s most visited cities and destinations, overtourism has become such a pressing issue that travellers are finally starting to look elsewhere, keen to avoid adding to the problem and eager to discover what else the world has to offer. Trends like the ‘quiet-cation’ and the ‘coolcation’ are on the rise, while popular destinations like Japan and Italy continue to come up with ways to redistribute tourism from densely crowded hotspots to lesser-visited regions. If you’re trying to be a more responsible traveller in 2027 – or if you’re simply craving quieter, cheaper alternatives to the overcrowded hotspots – read on. Time Out’s newly updated list of the world’s most underrated travel destinations features empty national parks and tiny time-warp towns; placid jungle stretches and deserted beaches; wild mountain regions and overlooked cities.  Why trust us? Because we’ve been to them all. Every spot on this list was picked by one of our expert editors and globetrotting travel writers, recommended because they offer great (or quiet) alternatives to the classics – and in many cases, because they’re places that are actively seeking tourism. In other words, travelling to any of these 41 destinations is a win-win situation.

If Puerto Rico isn’t on your foodie radar, you need to get that thing checked. Few places bridge the divide between traditional recipes and modern techniques quite like here, and the ever-growing roster of restaurants across the island brings the best out of indigenous ingredients. That is an understatement, of course, as words can never do justice to the sheer power of flavor found here. The best restaurants in Puerto Rico are a culinary extravaganza, from San Juan to Rincon and beyond. If the delicious dish comes with live music, dancing, and a conveyor belt of cocktails, so be it.
