Every year, about 1.8 crore Indians travel to international destinations such as Bangkok, Singapore, Dubai, Maldives, and Bali. These destinations have been the preferred destination for a number of factors. Most of these countries are closer to India, which means less time consumed in travel, and the tickets to these destinations are cheaper as compared to countries that are far off.
Well, we have a good news. Forget the cliché cramped destinations and add these less-explored places to your travel bucket list because travelling to these destinations just got easier.
Ecuador

Croatia
The mention of Croatia reminds us of the much-loved TV series, Game of Thrones. This intriguing destination gained a lot of popularity as GOT was shot here. The city of Dubrovnik with its attractions like the White Marble Street, Stradun and the Baroque-styled the Jesuit Staircase, is as picturesque as it gets. If Croatia is on your travel bucket list, we have a good news for you. Now, multiple airlines are operating flights to Croatia from all major cities in India, making travel easier than ever.
