Standby to readjust your bucket lists, because the adventure experts at Lonely Planet have revealed the hottest destinations for 2018 – and it's Chile that takes one of the coveted top spots.Lonely Planet's just-published Best In Travel 2018 book - whose sections include 'top 10 countries', 'top 10 regions' and 'top 10 cities' - has named it as the No1 country to visit in 2018, followed by South Korea, Portugal and the obscure Djibouti.The best cities for 2018 have been named as Seville in Spain, followed by Detroit, Canberra and Hamburg, with Belfast and the Causeway Coast in Northern Ireland named as the best region, followed by Alaska, and the UK the seventh best-value country.One of Chile's star attractions, according to the book, is its 'ever-trendier capital', Santiago, which it enthuses has been 'turned into a gourmand's playground in recent years'.It adds that it also has a 'flourishing arts scene'. The book also picks out the coastal city of Valparaiso as a big plus point for Chile, with its 'art-filled streets, bohemian cafes and romance-inducing promenades'.The country also boasts the wilds of Patagonia in the south and the Atacama desert in the north where 'there's been a big bang in astrotourism, with new stargazing hotels and geektastic tours to groundbreaking observatories'.South Korea, meanwhile, is described as a 'compact playground of Asian modernity' with 'mountainous delights' and 'steamy urban life'.The No 3 entry, Portugal, is praised for 'emerging from the long shadow cast by neighbouring Spain and seizing the spotlight as a dynamic centre for art, culture and cuisine'.The book continues: 'A spate of artfully designed museums have opened in the past two years, there's now a celebrated microbrewery scene, and rock-star Portuguese chefs are creating culinary buzz from Lisbon to the glittering beaches of the Algarve.'Fourth-placed Djibouti, on the Horn of Africa, offers something completely different – spectacular geology.The book says: 'This petite nation is in the process of being ripped in three by diverging tectonic plates.Magma seethes beneath ever-thinning crust and Martian-like deserts spew steam from fumaroles… add intoxicating culture and beckoning beaches and you have even more reason to hop on a plane.'Describing the No1 region, Belfast and the Causeway Coast, the book waxes lyrical, praising Belfast's 'hip neighbourhoods', 'vibrant Titanic Quarter' and the 'timeless beauty' of the Causeway.The No2 region, Alaska, wins plaudits for 'mixing incredible wildlife with a rough-and-tumble outdoor spirit'.Over on the top 10 city list, the No1, Seville, is lauded for transforming itself from a 'traffic-congested metropolis resting on its historical laurels' into a 'city of bicycles and trams, keen to reinvigorate its past'.The runner-up choice in this list, Detroit, may surprise many, because it is normally associated with a high crime rate, but Lonely Planet insists that 'after decades of neglect, Detroit is rolling again'.It praises its transformation of abandoned buildings into 'distilleries, bike shops and galleries' and public works, such as the hockey and basketball arena.The No3 choice, Canberra, is singled out for having 'national treasures around every corner' and a very strong restaurant scene.The UK is one of the world's best value destinations for 2018 because of the slump in the value of the pound, according to Lonely Planet.It is urging holidaymakers from overseas to 'reap the rewards' of currency exchange rates while the UK Government 'busies itself with Brexit'.Sterling is down 14 per cent against the euro and 11 per cent against the dollar compared with before the EU Referendum of June last year.The UK is one of the world's best value destinations for 2018 because of the slump in the value of the pound, according to Lonely Planet.Pictured is Pulteney Bridge over the River Avon in Bath The latest edition of Lonely Planet's Best in Travel advises readers to 'make the exchange rate work even harder' by heading to Devon, Cornwall, Bath, York and Edinburgh.The travel guide adds: 'The most likely scenario is that the UK stays affordable to i
