‘Perfect’ moments Brits want to experience on holiday – like food or drinks with a view
Enjoying food or drinks with a view, watching a sunrise or sunset with friends or family, and ticking something off your bucket list, are the top moments that make a truly memorable holiday, research has found.
Other “perfect” moments that holidaymakers want to experience while abroad include seeing a famous landmark, swimming in the sea – and some sort of in-joke or funny story that becomes a running anecdote for years to come.
The research asked 2,000 travellers, aged 18-34 to identify what would make the “perfect” holiday moment for them.
And two-thirds said the most memorable moments were unplanned and happened naturally – with 85% agreeing it is these unexpected moments that make a trip all the more unforgettable.
Respondents said that at least three new local dishes should be sampled during a trip, while 34% are keen to step outside their comfort zone – and try to push their boundaries at least three times while on holiday.
Three in ten (29%) also believe making new friends is key, with a memorable break involving meeting a minimum of two people.
And typically, 55 photos and 13 videos will be taken during a trip, to capture the average of four “perfect moments” they hope to experience.
