he annual Google Year in Search was just released, chronicling the major sports, news, and pop culture trends of 2024. With over 8.5 billion searches per day, Google is privy to heaps of data on what people are looking for on the internet—including the top trending travel destinations of 2024.

Published on December 10, 2024, the Google Year in Search report ranks the top “trending” searches from this year, meaning the queries that had a high spike in traffic over a sustained period in 2024 compared to 2023. For travel, those results reflect the destinations that have seen a surge in recent interest over the past year, a useful data point to keep in mind while planning your trip (whether you’re hoping to avoid the crowds or join them).
