A battle of big clashes have brought us all a unique group of favorites and small city powerhouses. Bilbao has quietly made it to the round of 8, while Tokyo had the biggest showing in the last round. Former champions Porto and Singapore are both still in the running while Montevideo doesn’t want you to forget about South America. We have only 8 cities left in the t0urnament and your votes over the next week decide who will advance!

Now though, the road to the Best City gets tough, no easy rounds and it is anyone’s contest.

Each week, throughout the Best City to Visit Travel Tournament, there will be a guessing pool where anyone can choose who they think they’ll win in a given round. The person with the most correct guesses will get a variety of prizes!

• All you have to do to enter for the Round of 64 is check the 32 cities here you think will advance to the next round before Tuesday 11:59pm February 22.

Winners and prizes will be announced as the tournament progresses. Good luck!
