We hear a lot about which destinations are overrated, too crowded, expensive, full of scams, suffering from overtourism, etc.

But which ones do you think are deservedly popular? Which ones justify the hype?

    Loch Ness. I thought it was gonna be kinda cheesy and a regular lake beyond that. I can see why Aleister Crowley and Jimmy Page chose to live there now. Absolutely stunning.

      For real. As a kid, I was enamored with the idea of Nessie, so when I went as an adult a couple of years ago, I just figured it wouldn’t live up to my childhood ideal. Little did I know that the area around Loch Ness is totally gorgeous. I loved every bit of it and would go back in a heartbeat to spend more time there.
