Alsace, France

If you thought we’d make a list of the best places in the world to travel to without at least mentioning France, you’re dead wrong. While Paris will put a dent in even the biggest of budgets, the comparatively smaller town of Alsace is a much more inviting place. It’s like taking a step into France’s medieval past, complete with steeped-roof houses and bright, beaming colors that absolutely scream France.

Of course, how could we mention France without saying anything about the wine? Worry not because Alsace is one of the finest wine producers in the world, so seize your chance to sample some that sweet nectar in the same place it’s made.
