3. USA
One user preferred the United States as a top pick for a final travel destination. They shared, “The USA is a must, I don't care what people say. It has everything, from multiple stunning national parks to big cities. If I had to choose just one country, it would be the US just for variety's sake”
4. Russia
Another user shared their excitement for Russia as a coveted destination. They expressed their aspiration to explore the place, saying, “Russia has always been high on my bucket list. I would love to go to Moscow and St. Petersburg and do the Transiberian Express.”
5. Iceland
In a discussion about dream travel destinations, one user revealed their long-standing desire to visit Iceland. They posted, “Iceland has always been my dream destination. I just love the landscapes and it's also one of the best places to watch the Auroras. And just a plus (a very niche one, btw) but I'm a big fan of strength sports, and Iceland is big on those.”
6. China
This person shared their perspective on China as a top travel pick, emphasizing the vastness of the country and the rich tapestry of cultures and environments it offers by saying this, “China was worth it I believe because of how vast it is and the amount of cultures/environments mixed in. You'll find that it gives you glimpses of the countries around them.”
7. Spain
Another user expressed their adoration for their favorite European country, praising its culture, architecture, people, and cuisine as they said, “Spain: My favorite country in Europe. Love the culture, the architecture, the people, the food, basically everything 💯”
8. Korea

I want to visit it for all the food and also to honor my young 20s, a time when I was such a devoted super junior fan I learned everything about the culture and the language. Not a K-pop listener anymore, but also not ashamed one bit.”
9. Philippines
Reflecting on past adventures in popular destinations, a seasoned traveler expressed excitement about exploring the Philippines, remarking, “Thailand, Germany, Japan, South Africa, and the Philippines. I've been to the first four, so I know they are good choices. I haven't been to the Philippines yet, so I would still get to discover.”
10. Morocco
Regarding the top travel destinations that would be picked if they were their last, this user chooses this country as commented, “Morocco. There is loads to do and a great feeling from the markets to the mountains, to the edge of the Sahara. The Medina/Grand Souq in Marrakesh is the world's greatest tourist trap IMO – and that makes it great, for almost (700?) years it has stood and done its thing.”
11. Canada
Another user praised Canada's vastness, diversity, and safety: “Canada because it’s so massive and diverse. Plus, safe and has any amenities you might want. Explore the Arctic, go to Niagara Falls and wine country, and take in great cities like Toronto, Montreal, Halifax, Thunder Bay, and Vancouver. Ski. Fishing. Surfing. Bike across the country. Camp out virtually anywhere. Hang out on the East Coast soaking up the culture and lobster. Take a polar plunge then sauna.”
12. New Zealand
Despite their lack of firsthand experience, these users recognized New Zealand's appeal and inclusion on the list of top travel destinations, commenting, “I've never been to New Zealand but from everything I've heard it deserves to be on this list.”
13. Australia

14. Taiwan
Another user considered this country one of their top destinations if they were their last. They posted this on a discussion forum, “Taiwan – I have a lot of friends there and I like visiting them.
