2019 was all about travel and exploring places unknown. We saw people living their best lives in Morocco, Colombia, Barbados, Thailand, and France amongst other destinations. However, some of the most awesome destinations are still under-the-radar and not visited as often.

Here are the underrated destinations of 2019 according to Insider:

Whitefish, Montana

If you love nature, Whitefish is a dream destination. While in this destination, you can ski, hike or just take in the beautiful view of the mountain.
