Every year Google unveils their Year in Search report which is a throwback to all the events and trends that topped the headlines. Of course, when it comes to us, we only thought of one list, travel! A list of the most searched tourist spots on our planet Earth.
Earlier the data was simply revolving around the name of the destination; but now in 2018, an added keyword qualifier of “trip to” has better narrowed the list down to what globetrotters like you and I have specifically searched for.
Now, the outcome! Intriguingly so, the top three spots were European cities and there was an overall 50:50 mix between North America and Europe. The most searched tourist spot is Italy, for those planning their next vacation.
