When you think of dream vacations, destinations like London, New York, or Paris may come to mind. But it turns out that the top Googled travel destinations are not the most obvious.
Google released their list of the top 5 fastest-rising searched cities – as well as the people most likely to be searching for them.
1. Reykjavik
According to Google, those most likely to search for travel to Iceland’s capital are women between the ages of 25 and 34. The audiences are also likely to include those who who are not yet parents and are interested in hiking.
