Agoda, a digital travel platform, has revealed the top trending holiday destinations today, as international travel is slowly regaining popularity.
Explorers are dusting off their suitcases and getting ready to celebrate the holiday season after a two-year hiatus.
Indians are increasingly crossing borders to satisfy their wanderlust and seek new experiences.
According to Agoda Booking Data, the top five current preferences are South-East Asian countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore, as well as European destinations such as France and Switzerland. Indians are looking for scenic views, rich culture, and places where they can enjoy the best of both worlds (mountains and beaches). Interestingly, Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore have consistently topped the list of top destinations, and they were also the most popular pre-pandemic destinations [2019 Booking Data].
Domestic travel booking data show that the lively metropolises of New Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Chennai are the most popular choices within the country. It is unsurprising that Goa remains a strong contender, ranking alongside the bustling metropolises as the ideal beach destination for unwinding.
Bangkok will be the world's most populous city in 2022. The bustling city has embraced the holiday season, offering nightlife, beaches, temples, culture, and cuisine, with almost entirely relaxed travel rules. Other Asian treasures that make the top five are Jeju Island, Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo, and Seoul.
