Most tourist destinations can no longer surprise. social networking tapes filled with photos of friends who had been to Thailand, Barcelona and Cuba. If your goal is to travel - to be a pioneer, note the top five countries that, according to statistics of the World Tourism Organization, attend a few thousand visitors a year.
Tuvalu
Tuvalu visited less than a thousand tourists a year. But there is always noisy ocean and the beach within walking distance. Then do everything in walking distance: the area of the island nation of just 26 square kilometers - a thousand times smaller than the Crimea. And with its territory is decreasing every year: Tuvalu is gradually disappearing under the water.
Tuvalu can be reach in plane from Fiji, flights are carried out twice a week. Moscow Fiji fly several planes and airlines with transfers total travel time of 26 hours. Prices, of course, sky-high, so it is unlikely that after this article the situation of tourism in Tuvalu change much. On the island there exists a couple of hotels. Not all inclusive, of course, but they have internet. After all, the main income of Tuvalu is the public domain .tv.
Kiribati
The population of Kiribati was just over 100 thousand people. It's like Sergiev Posad in the Moscow region and town of Pushkin (Tsarskoye Selo until 1918). In the year here comes no more than 5 thousand tourists. The reasons for such a small number of travelers - bad air connections and the lack of development of the hotel business. While beach holidays, fishing and scuba diving here, of course, excellent!
Travel in Kiribati can be formally considered as time travel, because, having taken off from Christmas Island on Tuesday morning, Honolulu you arrive on Wednesday, but will be just three hours on the road.
Montserrat
Montserrat is visited by 10,000 tourists a year, and residents here about two times less. This paradise island in the Caribbean has been very attractive to tourists until the end of the last century, when the volcano awoke Soufrière Hills. The administrative center of Plymouth now abandoned since the eruption it almost destroyed. Landscape would fit perfectly for the film a film about the moonBut it will have to obtain permission to visit the city by the local police.
Those who are not afraid of the next eruption, waiting for the magnificent scenery, diving and boat trips. But to get there, it takes a lot of patience and money.
Sao Tome and Principe
Sao Tome and Principe - a small island nation in Africa and the smallest Portuguese-speaking country in the world. Here the tropical climate, and, therefore, malaria, fever and tetanus. But brave claim that some precautions (bottled water, chemical treatment of fruits and shale) could well ensure a safe stay in the country. But the service here is excellent, you can relax from the hustle and bustle. The most convenient flight from Lisbon takes only six hours, in the same time you can get to Lisbon from Moscow - a relatively little.
Comoros
Holidays in Comoros, on the one hand, can quench your thirst with exotic (endemic animals, which you will not find anywhere else in the world, an active volcano, white coast and coral reefs), and on the other, is one of the most convenient places to stay from our list. Here sufficiently developed hotel business (about 100 accommodation options on Booking.com), you can get through Dubai or Paris, and in the summer there are tours.
