There are two types of people who travel in this world, The Traveller and The Tourist. If you fall into the first category, your idea of the perfect holiday cannot be found in a travel brochure, if you fall into the second category, you have a whole pile of glossy brochures to choose from, but when it comes to choosing the right destination for your next trip overseas, you might want consider the latest comparison lists prepared by Priceconomics.

The lists, complied using data collected the World Bank since 1981, combined with recent data collected in 2014, reveals those holiday destinations that have become the most ‘touristy’ in recent years, and those that still remain relatively untouched by tourism… and the results are somewhat surprising in both categories!
