Marrakech named ‘best’ holiday destination

MARRAKECH has been named the best rated destination in the world in TripAdvisor’s Travellers’ Choice awards. 

Siem Reap in Cambodia jumped seven places to second in the rankings, while Istanbul, Hanoi and Prague completed the World top five list.

Rome, named runner up in the awards last year, dropped five places to seventh.

While New York, the best rated US destination, failed to make the world top ten for the second year running.

London slipped down from third to sixth place on the World list, although the UK capital does have the honour of being one of only three destinations to have retained a top ten ranking in the awards five years in a row.

Steve Jackson, the UK’s top photo contributor to TripAdvisor in 2014 said: ‘Marrakech is one of those cities that should be on everyone’s bucket list. It’s a fantastic city to explore, rich in history and culture, and between the sea of street activity, bright colours and striking sunsets, it is a truly intoxicating experience.’

The awards also revealed the UK’s best rated destinations. Llandudno, Torquay, Blackpool, and Keswick were ranked in the top ten.
