The 'Fusion Trip' Trend: City and Nature Getaways
AsiaNet 88240
LONDON, Feb. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
-- Time Out Travel Survey reveals over a third of people are planning a city
getaway in 2021
Time Out (
), the global media and hospitality brand that helps people explore and
experience the soul of the city, debuts its first global Travel Survey. The
findings reveal that travellers are in search of a fusion of city and nature
for their future trips. This emerging trend follows the results revealed from
the global poll of more than 21,000 people, which indicates that more than a
third are planning a city getaway this year.
Despite the pandemic emptying city centres in 2020, the survey reveals that
just as many travellers are craving the unique culture and diversity of city
holidays (41%) in 2021 as are planning nature and countryside escapes (42%).
More people will be looking to travel with partners (16%) and family (14%) than
friends (10%), with the majority (67%) saying they will travel by plane.
A fifth of respondents (19%) want to travel to both city and nature
destinations this year. This has led Time Out editors worldwide to agree that
when travel eventually resumes, there will be a greater pull toward two-part
city and nature travel experiences. This 'fusion trip' trend will involve
travellers exploring city neighbourhoods and their food and drink scenes, while
discovering less-crowded culture spots and attractions. Following a few days of
city exploration, travellers will venture out to find nearby nature trails,
wide-open spaces and other outdoor activities.
Time Out International Editor, James Manning says: "It's been a hard year for
city life and for travel, so it's incredibly heartening to see our Time Out
Travel Survey identifying a huge interest in city breaks for 2021. We believe
that cities will bounce back more quickly than anyone expects, given the huge
pent-up demand for food, drink, culture and nightlife. Nevertheless, we're
expecting the surge in nature travel to continue too, with many people still
preferring outdoor activities. The 'fusion trip' combines the best of both
worlds: the vibe of the city, with a wave of travellers discovering the new
urban phenomena emerging from the global shutdown, plus the relaxation (and
built-in social distance) of a nature trip."

'fusion trip' once international travel reopens: FULL DESCRIPTIONS HERE (
