Nobody plans a trip thinking they'll regret it, but the wrong timing can ruin even the most incredible place.
沒有人在計劃旅行時會認為自己會後悔,但錯誤的時機可能會毀掉最不可思議的地方。
This year, some of the world's most iconic destinations might just be the worst ones to visit.
今年,世界上一些最具代表性的旅遊勝地可能是最不值得一去的地方。
So in this video, we're breaking down five must-see places that, for one reason or another, we think you ought to avoid in 2025.
在這部影片中,我們將介紹五個出於某些原因,我們認為你應該在 2025 年避開的地方。
Starting with Rome, Italy. 2025 is the year of Catholic Jubilee, also known as the Jubilee of Hope.
從意大利羅馬開始。2025 年是天主教禧年,也被稱為希望禧年。
This year-long celebration marks the 2025 anniversary of the Incarnation of the Lord.
為期一年的慶祝活動標誌著上帝道成肉身 2025 週年。
It begins in December 2024 and ends in January 2026.
它從 2024 年 12 月開始,到 2026 年 1 月結束。
Rome is the epicenter of this event and estimates suggest that an additional 20 million tourists will descend on the city in 2025.
羅馬是這次活動的中心,據估計,2025 年將有另外 2000 萬遊客來到羅馬。
That is on top of already massive crowds you would expect to see in Rome on any regular year.
此外,羅馬每年都會出現大量的人流。
Legendary sites like the Pantheon, Colosseum, the Forum, and of course the Vatican will all be packed beyond capacity.
萬神殿、鬥獸場、論壇等傳奇景點,當然還有梵蒂岡,都將被擠得水洩不通。
And while the city is taking steps to prepare for the influx, crowds of this size are just bound to feel suffocating and it's almost certain that prices for accommodations, flights, and even meals will skyrocket.
雖然該市正在採取措施為人潮的到來做好準備,但如此大規模的人流勢必會讓人感到窒息,而且幾乎可以肯定的是,住宿、機票甚至餐飲的價格都會飛漲。
Rome is absolutely worth visiting but you may want to wait until 2026.
羅馬絕對值得一遊,但你可能要等到 2026 年。
Next up on our don't travel list for 2025 is Paris.
在我們的 2025 年 "不旅行清單 "上,下一個目的地是巴黎。
I know, I know, hear me out.
我知道,我知道,聽我說完。
New research from Global Data predicts France is going to be the most visited country in the world next year.
全球數據公司(Global Data)的最新研究預測,明年法國將成為世界上遊客最多的國家。
Why?
為什麼?
Well, the main reason is Paris hosted the Olympics in 2024 so everyone avoided Paris in 2024.
主要原因是巴黎將在 2024 年舉辦奧運會,所以大家都避開了 2024 年的巴黎。
Tourism took a massive hit.
旅遊業受到巨大打擊。
Air France and Delta reported below average summer travel.
法航和達美航空報告的夏季旅行低於平均水平。
Both Airbnb and hotel occupancy rates dipped severely and when destinations experience dips like these they can see a huge surge in visitors the following year.
Airbnb 和酒店的入住率都出現了嚴重下滑,而當旅遊目的地的入住率出現這樣的下滑時,第二年的遊客量就會激增。
COVID taught us that, but that's not all.
COVID 教會了我們這些,但這還不是全部。
Notre Dame is set to reopen after its devastating fire five years ago and the reopening is likely to attract massive attention.
聖母院在經歷了五年前的大火之後即將重新開放,這次重新開放可能會吸引大量關注。
While it's hard to predict exactly how busy it's going to get, anything this historic and long-awaited is bound to create significant crowds.
雖然很難準確預測會有多熱鬧,但這種歷史性的、期待已久的活動一定會吸引大量人群。
Paris is an amazing destination you should definitely visit, but we think for these reasons, you should put it off.
巴黎是一個令人驚歎的旅遊勝地,你一定要去看看,但我們認為,由於這些原因,你應該延後去巴黎。
However, if you're planning any international travel in 2025, don't put off figuring out how you'll get cellular data abroad.
不過,如果你計劃在 2025 年進行任何國際旅行,請不要拖延考慮如何在國外獲得蜂窩數據。
Your phone is essential for navigation, messaging your Airbnb host, or sharing your adventures with friends back home.
你的手機是導航、給 Airbnb 房東發消息或與國內朋友分享冒險經歷的必備工具。
But without a plan, you're going to pay out the wazoo in roaming fees.
但如果沒有計劃,你就得支付一大筆漫遊費。
Now you could go with your home carrier's international plan but those are often pricey or you could buy a local SIM card but that can be a time-consuming hassle.
現在,你可以使用國內電信商的國際計劃,但這些計劃通常價格不菲,或者你可以購買一張當地 SIM 卡,但這可能會很費時費力。
That's why we recommend an eSIM. eSIMs have the physical SIM cards but you don't have to go anywhere, talk to anyone, or physically put anything in your phone.
eSIM 具有實體 SIM 卡,但你不必去任何地方,不必與任何人交談,也不必在手機中實際放入任何東西。
Our eSIM of choice is Olafly which offers eSIMs in over 200 destinations worldwide with no roaming fees and over 150 of those destinations offer unlimited data.
我們選擇的 eSIM 是 Olafly,它在全球 200 多個目的地提供 eSIM,免漫遊費,其中 150 多個目的地提供無限數據。
A 10-day trip using Olafly's Europe plan costs $37 versus $100 via Verizon and there's no hidden fees or data caps.
使用 Olafly 的歐洲計劃進行 10 天旅行的費用為 37 美元,而使用 Verizon 則為 100 美元,而且沒有任何隱藏費用或數據上限。
Setup takes just a couple of minutes.
設定只需幾分鐘。
Download the Olafly app, choose your plan, install the eSIM, and you're good to go.

Kyoto is one of Japan's most beloved cities, but in 2025, it might be worth avoiding.
京都是日本最受喜愛的城市之一,但在 2025 年,它可能值得避開。
Overcrowding has become a serious issue especially in historic areas like the Gion district.
過度擁擠已成為一個嚴重問題,尤其是在祗園等歷史悠久的地區。
To combat the strain, local officials have introduced measures like banning tourists from accessing certain streets and installing barriers to block popular photo spots.
為了應對這種壓力,當地官員採取了一些措施,如禁止遊客進入某些街道,並在熱門拍照地點設置障礙。
No knocking these restrictions, honestly. I think they're a necessary step to protect Kyoto's cultural traditions and the daily lives of its citizens from the negative effects of how overwhelmed the city has become.
老實說,我並不反對這些限制措施,我認為這是保護京都文化傳統和市民日常生活不受城市不堪重負的負面影響所必須採取的措施。
Unfortunately, it's not just Kyoto.
遺憾的是,不僅僅是京都。
Honestly, there's an argument to be made for avoiding Japan altogether in 2025.
老實說,有理由在 2025 年完全避開日本。
Overcrowding has reached record highs and a weaker yen has made the country a magnet for international visitors.
人滿為患的情況已達到歷史最高點,日元走低使該國成為吸引國際遊客的磁鐵。
It breaks my heart to say this, but Valencia is one of the destinations you may want to avoid in 2025.
雖然這麼說讓我很傷心,但瓦倫西亞是你在 2025 年可能要避開的目的地之一。
As you may know on October 29th 2024 the city suffered catastrophic flooding.
大家可能都知道,2024 年 10 月 29 日,這座城市遭受了災難性的洪災。
The deadliest and most devastating in decades.
幾十年來最致命、破壞性最大的一次。
The damage to Valencia's infrastructure is severe.
瓦倫西亞的基礎設施遭到嚴重破壞。
Roads, railways, and sewage systems will require extensive repairs and the region's agriculture, such a crucial part of its identity and economy, has been heavily impacted.
公路、鐵路和下水道系統需要大修,而作為該地區特徵和經濟重要組成部分的農業也受到了嚴重影響。
Tourism is an important source of income for Valencia and while visiting may feel like a way to support the city, it's worth considering the strain that tourists could add to the region still in recovery.
旅遊業是瓦倫西亞的重要收入來源,雖然遊客可能會覺得這是支持這座城市的一種方式,但值得考慮的是,遊客可能會給仍在恢復中的地區增加壓力。
Repair efforts will likely continue throughout 2025 and the local economy particularly farming and tourism may need years to fully bounce back.
修復工作可能會持續整個 2025 年,當地經濟,尤其是農業和旅遊業可能需要數年時間才能完全恢復。
If you're interested in donating to recovery efforts, we've linked a couple of resources below.
如果你有興趣為恢復工作捐款,我們在下面連結了一些資源。
This mention is for everyone from outside the USA.
這是為美國以外的所有人準備的。
When we ask most of our international friends where in the United States they visited or would like to visit, the top two responses are almost unilaterally the same and unfortunately, they should both be avoided in 2025.
當我們問大多數國際友人他們去過或想去美國的哪個地方時,前兩個回答幾乎都是一樣的,不幸的是,這兩個地方在 2025 年都應該避免去。
New York City and Los Angeles.
紐約市和洛杉磯。
Here's why. Both cities are undergoing major construction projects in preparation for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
原因如下,這兩個城市都在為 2026 年世界盃足球賽進行大型建設項目。
In New York, these updates include stadium improvements, significant infrastructure work in Manhattan, and upgrades to the city's aging subway system.
在紐約,這些更新包括體育場館的改善、曼哈頓的重大基礎設施工程以及城市老化地鐵系統的升級。
Times Square, one of the most heavily visited areas in the world, is also undergoing renovations that will likely create additional headaches for travelers.
時代廣場是世界上遊客最多的地區之一,也正在進行翻修,這可能會給遊客帶來更多的麻煩。
Over in LA the story is much the same.
在洛杉磯,情況也大致相同。
LAX, already one of the busiest airports in the world, is in the middle of a major expansion and with ambitious metro line updates on top of the city's infamous traffic congestion getting around LA in 2025 is going to be a serious challenge.
洛杉磯國際機場已經是世界上最繁忙的機場之一,目前正在進行大規模擴建,加上雄心勃勃的地鐵線路更新,以及該市臭名昭著的交通擁堵問題,要在 2025 年繞行洛杉磯將是一個嚴峻的挑戰。
Both New York and LA are incredible destinations but the disruption from construction projects will likely make 2025 one of the worst years to visit.
紐約和洛杉磯都是令人難以置信的旅遊勝地,但施工項目造成的干擾可能會使 2025 年成為最不適合旅遊的年份之一。
I would hold off until 2026 when the upgrades are complete or even later because you know busy.
我會延後到 2026 年升級完成後,甚至更晚,因為你知道很忙。
Even if you avoid these destinations, if you're planning any travel in 2025, there are several new rules and regulations and in this video, I break down the five biggest changes travelers need to know going into 2025.
即使你避開了這些目的地,如果你計劃在 2025 年旅行,也會有一些新的規則和規定,在這部影片中,我將為你分析進入 2025 年旅行者需要了解的五大變化。
