Top 12 Most Popular Tourist Destinations for 2026: Where Ukrainians Will Travel.

According to The Sun: As the year 2025 approaches, many are already starting to plan their vacations for the next year. We have prepared a list of the most popular travel destinations for 2026.

Sun Travel has presented 12 places that we believe will become hits next year — from Asia to Iceland, as well as stunning holidays in the United Kingdom.

Albania

The travel editor of The Sun, Lisa Minot, notes:

“This country is probably no longer a secret, but in 2026 Albania will become a popular tourist destination.”

“In recent years, its stunning coastline along the Ionian Sea has attracted travelers looking for the beauty of Greece and Italy without the expensive prices.”

“Major travel companies are listening closely to their clients. Low-cost airlines such as Ryanair and Wizz Air have already expanded the number of flights from the UK to Tirana, and a new international airport in Vlorë will start full operations in March next year, creating a more convenient route to the Albanian Riviera.”

Morocco

The deputy travel editor of The Sun, Cara Godfrey, states:

“As the cost of living crisis continues to impact Brits, families are looking for affordable destinations where their money will go further.”

“Morocco is one of the most affordable options for winter vacations without a long flight.”

“In 2026, the country will host the FIFA World Cup, which will only increase tourist interest.”

Glasgow, Scotland

The travel writer of The Sun, Helen Wright, says:

“The Scottish city of Glasgow is gaining popularity and has made it onto Time Out's list of the best cities in the world — and for good reason. It’s just an hour’s flight to Glasgow for £40.”

“With an excellent arts and music scene, Glasgow is one of the best cities for partying, rich in museums, galleries, and iconic architecture.”

Koh Samui, Thailand

The Sun correspondent, Alice Pennil, says:

“Koh Samui became popular after the announcement of the third season of White Lotus.”

“The island offers luxury similar to what you see in the series, and while not everyone will book a room at Four Seasons, you will still find great hotels at significantly lower prices than in many parts of Europe.”

With the growing popularity of cold climate travel, more and more travelers are choosing Iceland as the ideal place for such adventures.

2026 is expected to bring even more interesting destinations for travelers, so don’t miss the opportunity to plan your trip in advance!
