Within Udaipur, India, Goa, and Manali are among the top choices, while international travellers eye Rio de Janeiro, Sydney, and New York.
Early Bookings in High Demand
Travel agencies report that hotel bookings have already started as tourists aim to secure the best spots for celebrations. Many people are opting to pre-book hotels, especially in popular cities like Udaipur, where New Year celebrations begin alongside Christmas festivities.
Goa and Udaipur Among Top Destination
According to a travel website, Goa is the leading choice for Christmas and New Year celebrations in India, known for its lively atmosphere during the holiday season. Gulmarg in Kashmir has also become a preferred destination this year. Goa is followed by Manali and Udaipur, where tourists from India and abroad flock to celebrate.
Udaipur Sees Increased Bookings
The tourism industry in Udaipur reports high demand for hotel bookings, which are now extending into the first week of January. As Christmas approaches on December 25, Udaipur is set to witness a rise in tourist activity, with thousands expected to join the city’s New Year festivities.
Budget-Friendly Destinations
Due to rising flight prices in December and January, budget-friendly international destinations are in high demand. Thailand and the Maldives are popular for their affordable yet appealing foreign travel experience. Other budget options include Bali, Singapore, and Malaysia, which offer a unique New Year celebration experience.
Europe and Dubai Still in Trend
While Europe remains an attractive destination, it tends to be more expensive, making it a less popular choice for those on a budget. However, Dubai, a comparatively budget-friendly international option, remains a favourite for tourists planning a memorable New Year’s getaway.
