Jakarta – The 2026 Readers’ Choice Awards have been announced, with Indonesia securing a place among the winners in the prestigious global tourism awards’ list of the world’s best countries.

(CNN Traveller) is one of the world’s leading and most influential luxury travel publications, with editions based in the United States and the United Kingdom. Each year, it organizes the Readers’ Choice Awards, a prestigious tourism awards program in which winners are selected directly by travelers, according to CN Traveller.

The Best Countries in the World 2026 category recognizes destinations based on several quality indicators, including culture, culinary experiences, infrastructure and transportation accessibility, local hospitality, safety, natural beauty, and outdoor activities.

Readers’ reviews are converted into average percentage scores, with the results determined entirely by travelers’ votes and assessments. The awards are widely regarded as credible because they reflect the actual trends and preferences of modern travelers rather than selections made solely by an internal panel of magazine judges.

Greece was named the world’s best country in 2026, receiving a score of 98.14 out of 100. The destination has attracted record-breaking numbers of tourists.

The country is home to picture-perfect Santorini, mythology-rich Mykonos, and the vast island of Crete, where the wine industry is experiencing a revival. Its collection of dream destinations continues to expand as more visitors discover the relatively unexplored Paros, car-free Hydra, mysterious Ios, and windswept Tinos.



Meanwhile, Indonesia ranked eighth with a score of 93.75 out of 100. CNN Traveller said Indonesia’s inclusion was unsurprising given its extraordinary natural beauty. What surprised the publication instead was that Indonesia had been absent from the awards the previous year.

According to travelers’ reviews, Bali remains Indonesia’s tourism hub, offering everything from holistic jungle retreats to backpacker havens and fashionable beach clubs. However, as increasing visitor numbers contribute to overtourism, other Indonesian destinations are beginning to attract greater attention.

Komodo National Park, Raja Ampat, and Lombok were among the destinations that helped Indonesia return to the prestigious ranking. Improved access through international flights was also highlighted as one of the country’s advantages.
