I've been to 107 countries. Italy and Mexico are great, but these 5 underrated destinations should be on your travel radar.

  • I've visited 107 countries, and I recommend these 5 that can be overlooked for more popular places.
  • Estonia is a European dream, and Namibia is one of my favorite places in the world.

This year, travelers are looking to visit more under-the-radar destinations than popular ones — in part to dodge crowds and in part to save money.

Some are specifically looking for "travel dupes," a term for destinations similar to popular spots that are often cheaper with fewer crowds.

And, as someone who's been to 107 countries, I can tell you each region of the world has an often overlooked country that may offer a more rewarding experience than a more well-known place. These more under-the-radar destinations are often less crowded, and your dollar just might go further.

Popular travel destinations like Italy, France, and Mexico are great picks — but consider visiting these alternative options to the more popular choices in the region.
