For a long time, finding a “hidden gem” was part of the fun of travelling. Lately, though, the phrase has lost some of its shine. Montenegro is a hidden gem. The Dolomites are a hidden gem. A restaurant with 50,000 reviews is a hidden gem. Even Uzbekistan is an offbeat destination. When everywhere is underrated, nowhere really is, is it? Perhaps that’s why “if you know, you know” has become travel’s new shorthand for discovering somewhere before everyone else does. Swipe to find out what it’s all about.
