Time Magazine, an American weekly news magazine and news website, has released its third annual list of the “World’s Greatest Places” in 2021.
To compile this list of World’s Great Places in 2021, Time Magazine solicited nominations of places – including countries, regions, cities and towns – from its international network of correspondents and contributors, with an eye toward those offering new and exciting experiences.
Those include big cities and smaller destinations that have flourished amid the pandemic.
Six destinations in East Africa and Southern Africa have been selected by Time Magazine to be featured on the list of the “World’s Greatest Places 2021”.
Rwanda’s already impressive array of unique, eco-friendly and luxurious tourism experiences is about to add another extraordinary stay to its roster.
The Mantis Kivu Queen uBuranga floating hotel, scheduled to open by the end of the year, is a 10-cabin, solar–powered yacht—the first of its kind in the country.
The Mantis Kivu Queen uBuranga Hotel is a unique luxury experience, includes an onboard swimming pool and offers three-day cruises along Lake Kivu, a rift-valley lake famous for its clear waters and stunning forests.
Boat passengers can continue their exploration of Rwanda’s rich wildlife with a stay at the new Forest of Hope Guest House and Camp in nearby Gishwati-Mukura National Park, where tracking chimpanzees and golden monkeys goes hand in hand with tree planting as part of the local reforestation effort.
Remarks from Time Magazine on World’s Greatest Places 2021 List
The challenges of the past year and a half have transformed our world, and few industries have been as affected as travel, tourism and hospitality.
In many ways, our third annual list of the World’s Greatest Places is a tribute to the people and businesses at the forefront of those industries who, amid extraordinary circumstances, found ways to adapt, build and innovate.
It shines a light on ingenuity, creativity, revitalization and reopenings in 100 unique destinations across the world.
While it may not be possible to safely visit each place just yet, they’re all well worth reading (and dreaming) about until it’s time, once again, to explore.
