I’m excited to start planning my travels for 2026 😃 What is on everyone’s 2026 travel bucket list?

For me:

- Egypt in January - this has been on my bucket list for years (booking a tour during Black Friday!!)
- Iceland is way up there - seeing Pyramids and Aurora Borealis in one year would be a dream!🤞 (maybe in November?)
- If I can manage/afford it, I would love a quick trip to Geneva in Switzerland!

What a bucketlist!!! @ck_explorer1000  
I saw that you mentioned Switzerland, make sure to visit also the mountains (Grindelwald for example).

I always plan my trips waaaayyy ahead so I have everything booked already and 2026 is the year for JAPAN in March/April.

Have the best time exploring in 2026!

Maybe not a destination, but I’m considering a River Cruise for the first time. Possibly the North of the Rhine as it’s been an age since I was in Amsterdam and it would be cool to step into Belgium and Cologne.  
Does this mean I’m getting old? 🤔 🧓  
I’ve definitely been influenced by a couple of posts I’ve seen on social media, but it seems like a novel way of traveling and I love the water. 🛳  
I’m keeping an eye on Black Friday deals and if I see a great deal then I might just go for it. And then start collecting my pension 😆

Also considering a train trip through France, Switzerland and Italy but the logistics aren’t easy!

The parks are amazing in Tokyo. The people are very silent, respectful and kind. Toilets are incredibly clean and comfortable. People always wait for each other and always in a que even while crossing the street.

My bucket list destinations for 2026 are Belgium, Switzerland, and France. These countries are a mix of beautiful landscapes, rich culture, and incredible food experiences.

**Belgium** : Known for its charming medieval towns.

**Switzerland** : Famous for breathtaking Alpine scenery.

**France** : From Paris with its iconic Eiffel Tower and museums.

Since they are part of the Schengen area, travelers from the UK will need to check the **Schengen visa from UK** requirements before planning their trip.

For me it will be:

Peru and South Africa. It will be my first time in Peru so trying to see as much as possible of the highlights. I have been to South Africa a few times, but always trying to see something new, this time I will discover the Wild Coast for the first time. Super excited.

I don’t really have bucket list places on my list this year, but I visiting **Finland**. Haven’t been in over 3 years! Planning to rent a cottage by a lake and enjoy the countryside in southern Finland.

Geneva’s gorgeous if you can make a quick trip - honestly, sometimes a short stopover is way more relaxing than trying to cram too much in.

I’ve really been thinking about an Alaskan cruise or something in Upper Canada, where we can see the Aurora Borealis! Seems like such a cool thing I would want to see in person!
