While many people take advantage of summer by heading to the beach and baking themselves into a crisp, this year, be the smart traveler that uses summer as an excuse to travel to a winter destination in the off-season. You’ll be able to enjoy much more reasonable temperatures, as well as cheaper prices on airfare, hotels, and much more.
Check out these awesome wintertime destinations this summer, and you’d be surprised at how much you can save.
Greenland
Many people confuse Greenland and Iceland, but it’s easy to remember with this little trick. Greenland is mostly covered in ice, while Iceland is the green, mountainous country with the elves and fairies.
Although Greenland is much less popular than Iceland in terms of tourism, it has tons of gorgeous, unspoiled land that’s just begging to be explored. You’ll probably fly into Nuuk, the capital city, where you can spend some time experiencing urban Greenlandic cuisine and culture before heading out to explore the majestic fjords, ancient Norse ruins, and massive icebergs that make the country so incredible.
