Holidu, a travel search engine based in Germany, has released its Generational Travel Index 2022. The brand analyzed cities around the world based on factors important to baby boomers: people born between 1946 and 1964.
Research has shown that while traveling, baby boomers spend more money on food than any other generation and value exploring nature more than anything else.
The Holidu Index measures key factors for baby boomers, including diverse landscapes, green spaces and Michelin Guide restaurants.
