Tripadvisor has released its hotly anticipated annual Travelers’ Choice Awards: Best of the Best Things To Do for 2025, highlighting the world’s highest-rated attractions and tours, and putting popular “tourist traps” to the test of public opinion. Drawing on millions of reviews from a global community of travellers, the list reveals which iconic and off-the-beaten-path experiences are truly worth travellers’ time and money. For Thai readers keen on travel overseas or looking to understand how Thailand stacks up in global rankings, this year’s results offer both inspiration and food for thought.

In a surprising twist to the American tourism landscape, the NASA Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida has soared to the coveted No. 1 spot among US attractions, according to Tripadvisor’s 2025 Travelers’ Choice Awards: Best of the Best Things To Do. Heralded as the nation’s top draw, the Kennedy Space Center edged out the state’s normally dominant beaches and theme parks, adding rocket fuel to Florida’s reputation for unique, world-class destinations. The announcement comes as Tripadvisor, the globe’s largest travel guidance platform, revealed its list based on reviews and ratings collected over the twelve months leading up to March 31, 2025. Other Florida sites making the top ranks include the Stetson Mansion in DeLand at No. 5 and John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park in Key Largo at No. 6, reinforcing the state’s diverse appeal to both domestic and international tourists (Miami Herald).
