Travel + Leisure magazine has released its list of 50 Best Places to Travel in 2020, and Barbados has made the cut.
The annual anticipated list of cities and countries put Barbados in the corporate of top tourism destinations equivalent to Hawaii, Dubai and France.
A world leader in travel and tourism, the magazine touted Barbados as “largely famous for its powder-white beaches, British-colonial roots, manifold rum shops, and native daughter Rihanna”.
In compiling the list, Travel + Leisure said: “For definitive answers on the most effective vacation spots of the moment, we hit the books scouring tourism statistics; scoping out major events; charting new flight routes and logging hotel debuts.”
Perhaps essentially the most unique highlight of the destination within the article was next 12 months’s national initiative, We Gatherin’.
“The country’s first female Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley sent out a rallying cry for anyone with Bajan roots to return to the island in 2020 to partake in a year-long calendar of events celebrating Bajan heritage and culture,” the article cited.
The Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc.
