Looking to go away over the Easter break? Well, it seems there’s a trend emerging in Kiwis’ travel itineraries over the long weekend, with many opting for a city getaway.
Kiwis are heading to major metropolitan areas - both internationally and domestically - this Easter, according to research from Booking.com.
Easter this year falls on the weekend of March 29 to April 1, and many Kiwis have planned accordingly, searching for possible getaways that the whole family can enjoy.
Site searches throughout February reveal that a growing number of Kiwis are searching for city breaks over Easter. In the top spot is Auckland, which has increased in popularity compared to this time last year.
While the City of Sails seems to be the place to be this Easter, Rotorua has nabbed second place, which is no surprise considering it was named one of the world’s top 10 trending destinations. In third place was Queenstown.
