Going on holiday today is simply not the same as going on holiday twenty or thirty years ago: everything has changed. Technology has streamlined the way you make choices when you travel, changing the way you pick destinations, how you get there and where you’ll stay.
The popularity of aggregate user-based review sites has made picking hotels a far easier task. When you arrive in a country, you’ll already know exactly which secret spots to visit. You’ll probably do all of this without having to resort to buying travel guidebooks, a practice that is often overlooked now as information is so readily available online.
The statistics below will show you the different ways in which technology is embraced by young travellers.
