Narrowing down the world\u2019s 195 countries is not an easy feat, in fact, it\u2019s just the opposite.

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Our main criteria for determining the best countries to visit in the world came down to a few key components: the variety of activities and sights to see, the friendliness of the people, and overall experience. Psst! <\/em>Food<\/a> means a lot to us too. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
