If you're aiming to travel more in 2022 – maybe by taking more solo trips – Tripadvisor's list of the top trending destinations is packed with inspo.
These aren't necessarily the site's most popular destinations, but rather the ones that have seen the greatest growth in search traffic year-on-year. So, they're already pretty hot and poised to get hotter as venturing out of the UK potentially becomes less tricky again.
The pandemic certainly doesn't appear to have dampened our wanderlust. According to a recent Tripadvisor survey, 78% of Brits are planning to travel for leisure in 2022 – which is up from 72% in 2019.
