Airport transfer website Hoppa released its annual report ranking the price of a holiday in 84 destinations around the world.

Hoppa analysed the average cost of a one night stay per person to produce the ranking. The total per person includes the split cost of a hotel room, a meal for two with a shared bottle of wine, a shared 3-kilometre taxi journey, as well as a coffee, a cocktail, and a beer each.

Hoppa's report also looked at other features like the cost of a sightseeing bus and key attractions, although they are not included in this ranking.

From the Las Vegas strip to the beaches on Honolulu, here are the 21 most expensive holiday destinations on the planet in 2017. They are ranked by the average all-in price per person per night, alongside a breakdown of how you'll spend your money in each place.
