Holidu, a Germany-based travel search engine, released its 2022 generational travel index. The brand analyzed cities worldwide based on factors important to baby boomers: people born from 1946 to 1964.
Research showed that, when traveling, baby boomers spend more money on food than any other generation and value exploring nature more than anything else.
Holidu’s index measured important factors for baby boomers, which included different landscapes, green spaces, and Michelin Guide restaurants.
