The "Return Visitor Ranking" survey of Agoda found 67 percent of the Indian travelers surveyed said they want to come back to their favorite destinations for their cuisine, ease of travel, and affordability.

The survey found up to 58 percent of repeat travellers have visited their favorite destinations between one to three times in the past decade.

According to Krisha Rathi, Agoda's Director for South Asia and the Maldives, this ranking indicates that for Indian travellers, Thailand, Viet Nam, and Bali (Indonesia) are not only destinations but also experiences they are eager to repeat.

The survey also highlights the importance of hospitality, with three out of every 10 Indian travellers noting that friendly locals are critical in their decision to return.

For Asian travellers, Japan, Thailand, and Viet Nam have become the top destinations they wish to revisit. The ease of travel is the primary motivation for 44 percent of Asian travellers wanting to return to their favorite destinations.

The survey was conducted via the Agoda platform from August 1 - 19, with over 4,000 participants from 10 markets, including Indonesia, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan (China), Thailand, and Viet Nam.
