Let Your Zodiac Sign Pick Your Perfect Holiday Destination

Picking a holiday destination can often be as stressful as closing your suitcase, rushing to the airport or figuring out the exchange rate. Take the hassle out of decision making with Culture Trip’s guide to finding the perfect destination for you next holiday based on your star sign.

Based on the main traits associated with the 12 signs of the zodiac, we’ve scoured the globe and found the ideal destination that will meet all your needs.

Aries: you’re an adventurous daredevil

(21 Mar – 20 Apr) It’s hard to keep an Aries in one place, and they are often leaders rather than followers. The best place to send you will have plenty of wide-open spaces and outdoor activities.

Taurus: you’re warm-hearted and love security

(21 Apr – 20 May) Even though the symbol used for Taurus is a bull, the qualities you’re said to display include calmness and a need for meticulous planning. There’s also a willingness to pay for luxury, so perhaps one of the most expensive cities in the world is calling you?
